Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
4th of July has arrived in Springfield! But, with that limited-time label it may be overwhelming trying to decide which items to buy and what to pass on. . But, have no fear! That’s where we come in to tell you what’s worth your donuts & what you might want to hold off on.
Wondering if you should add George Washington & his Cherry Tree to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button, let’s break down the Pros and Cons of adding this President to your Springfield.
Donut Price: 180 Donuts
Dimensions: 3×3
Bonus: 2.75% bonus to all cash and xp
Conform-O-Meter: Indolence
Pros:
-Premium character, earns 50% more cash and xp on all tasks
-Cherry tree is a nice colorful decoration, with a nice bonus at 2.75%
-Comes with his own questline.
-A couple of funny outdoor tasks
-Completes the 4th of July 2014 Character Set
-It’s George Washington!
Cons:
-At 180 donuts he’s quite the expensive purchase
-Not voiced, aside from a few groans
-After initial questline he has no interaction with any other characters
-A bit of a random character to be dropped in Springfield. Although he fits in better with the show than Abe did.
Final Thought:
I’m a history buff…so this, for me, is a MUST BUY. I absolutely love having Presidents in Springfield and who can say no to America’s first President? Well I guess someone who’s not American….So while I absolutely LOVE this character I realize it may not be for everyone. 180 donuts is a have a hefty price tag so make sure you think it over long and hard before you make the purchase. For me I pull the trigger on it just because I love the idea of the character, but for you it may not be that way. So be sure to weigh the pros and cons of this Founding Father before you make your final decision.
Just remember whatever you decide this is a LIMITED-TIME character and once he’s gone, he’s gone…so be sure to get him before July 16th if you’re thinking about making that purchase!
