Hey there Hoppereenos. Looks like EA gave us quite a lil surprise. They decided today would be a fun day to release our troops. No idea why. We are looking into it though. Outside of that, a lot of cool new decorations were just introduced. We will be breaking them down for you, so stay tuned as we gather all the information.
More to come.
First off, the information for the Nerd Troop Replenishment is still EXACTLY the same. Even with this update. So why they launched today is beyond us. Not sure if this is to make up for those that did not get them last Saturday. There still may be one this Saturday too. So make sure you use ALL of them up before 2PM EST
Now for the NEW Decorations:
Two-nicorn- 70 Donuts, Vomits Rainbows, Exotic Animals & Pets Group
Windmill– 2000 Elixr, +500 Vanity, Grass/Pavement/Beach/Boardwalk
Two-Story Outhouse, 3000 Elixr, +800 Vanity, Grass/Pavement/Beach/Boardwalk
Guillotine, 5000 Elixr, +1300 Vanity, Grass/Pavement/Beach/Boardwalk
Medieval Tent, 300 Elixr, +100 Vanity, Grass/Pavement/Beach/Boardwalk
New Old Items?:
Elixr Mixer, 65 Donuts, 35 Elixr every 8hrs, Grass
Treasure Chest, 85 Donuts, 20 Gold Coins every 12hrs, Grass/Pavement/Beach/Boardwalk
Barracks, 40 Donuts, .50% Bonus, Grass/Pavement/Beach/Boardwalk
Reintroduction of Old Items (Keep in mind, if you already have some of the older buildings, they won’t show):
Fort Sensible, 65 Donuts, $120 & 12 XP every 6 hrs
Freakshow Tent, 80 Donuts
Box of Fireworks, 50 Donuts, 2.25% Bonus
Satan’s Anvil, 225 Donuts
A bunch of cool new items to use for decorations around your Medieval Springfield as well as a reintroduction of some older items too. Pretty cool as I was already using the Fort and Freakshow in my designs. Lol.
Looks like they also decided to make it a little bit more normal on Level 21 Castle Upgrades by making it 10,500 instead of 105,000. That zero made a HUGE difference.
Note from Alissa: Looks like after Level 21 they increase by 1,000 Elixir. So Level 22 will cost 11,500 Elixir to upgrade to, Level 23 12,500 Elixir and so on. Also, from what I can see (at least with the first couple of upgrades beyond Level 20) it’s 1 wall at each level.
Still combing through more details and information. Will update with anymore findings. In the meantime, what do YOU think of all the new stuff? Are YOU gonna buy a vomiting unicorn? Got some ideas for the new decorations? Let us know, we love to hear from you.

Finally the two-nicorn…Yay.
Everything else, Ehh.. Still deciding.
My tear down and rebuild is keeping me really busy. Have to wait till after work to get this update…Sigh
Now I need: a barn (great in combination with haythingy and windmill.)
Some more things for a mediaeval knight outpost. Like armorstand, the big king medieval tent.
Mediaeval houses to make some kind of mediaeval town.
Giuseppe’s workshop look mediaeval 🙂
And let’s not forget a task for twonicorn to walk into themedieval tent burps rainbow and gets kicked out by a shoe.
I need some more elixer :/
Probably going to get Fort Sensibile, the two-nicorn I’ll wait for your Should I Buy. Yay for Updates!
I’m glad that I didn’t finish rebuilding my Springfield I need a bigger castle now!
Does anyone know if 90 nerds (or 30 per castle) will be the maximum we can get? Has anyone generated more than this?
The max with all three castles leveled to 19 is 130.
Since this update my game keeps crashing. I go to one random town and do two attacks but if I go to another and try attack one building my game freezes and then closes. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled but it’s still happening. Any ideas? Should I contact EA?
I would. Unfortunately it’s the only way to fix things when normal troubleshooting doesn’t do the trick. Only other suggestion I can say (because EA probably will too) is to try and log in to your game from another device. After that, log out and go back to your original device.

Well, had to get the two-nicorn. It costs way too much. But it vomits rainbows.
There was no debate, really. I also picked up Fort Sensible. I’ll probably pass on the Freak Show tents though, as they do absolutely nothing.
Nice grabs!
How do I complain to EA about the game?? I just clicked on the the exil items to see info (vanity etc) and without selecting to buy the item or place it it took my exilr and put the items in my storage. NOT IMPRESSE

Me too! Annoying 🙁
Same thing happened to me, I contacted EA, I hope they make it right.
EA put 4400 elixir in my game (I submitted a ticket for not getting the full amt of elixir with that one personal prize level and purchasing the windmill by just scrolling through the new decorations) I’m appreciative and I will very cautiously look through the decorations now if we get any more new ones. Thanks EA
If anyone knows, does the two-nicorn roam around or is it stationary like the reindeer?
It walks around on sidewalks like other characters.
The cost of Fort Sensible, Freakshow and the Two-nicorn comes to less donuts than Satan’s Anvil? Crazy bananas right?
lol that IS some crazy bananas!
I think its to much considering it was a prize released on just the last update. I love having it though.but it doesn’t offer anything.
Got a little tip if anyone is having trouble with gaining elixir and coins. Quite time consuming but effective. Since monday I gained ~25k gold coins (freemium) so I thought it’s worth sharing. It’s really simple too – you just go through as many random Springfields as you can, leaving only one nerd per building in those towns which seem like the owner isn’t paying much attention (24h tasks, 10-12h time of defence, wrecked buildings). Tried a few different ways but so far this proved to be the best. Hopefully, you’ll be able to max out everything and buy some limited time decorations for your town before the event ends. I’m sure it’s nothing new for some of you but maybe I’ll help some who are struggling with getting further with the event.
And yeaaah, for every two-hour delivery of fresh nerds it takes like 10 to 15 mins to get around so if you have a life don’t bother.
Do you guys have any clarification around the new dialog? Have they changed the payout scheme based on how many nerds you send or did it just mean that you have a higher likelihood of destroying the building if you send multiple nerds?
What I’m seeing is…it’s still the same payout no matter how many nerds you use.
So if you max out nerds on a single house, I think its 12 (but I don’t remember), versus attack 12 houses with 12 individual nerds, will that payout be the same? Or will you get less for the individual maxed out house because that one house was only worth 70 vs 70×12? I hope that wasn’t a convoluted question.
Location Attacked: Elixr Payout/Gold Payout
Neighbor Castle Win: 25/10
Neighbor Castle Lost (Defended): 10/2
Neighbor Building Win: 18/8
Neighbor Building Lost (Defended): 5/1
It all depends on whether the building is defended or not. So many variables. If you sent 12 nerds to 12 different buildings and they were defended, you’d get 60/12 vs. only the 18/8 for a win. I’ve been sticking to one per building and doing well.
I just click random neighbour until I find a town that has a low def-boni, i.e. 11hrs or less on houses and attack it with eight each. Not much chances to defend it.
Curious if as castle levels beyond 21 will we get more than walls at some point. Also before the drop of the 0 it said walls now it says 1 castle wall.
What i’m seeing is it’s a 1,000 elixir increase each new level (so 10,500 Level 21, 11,500 Level 22 etc) and it’s 1 wall awarded at each new level. Ran out of elixir so i can’t test it much more beyond Level 22.
Hi Bunny,
Thanks for the update, as always you guys are right on the ball. Funny thing, I got the nerd troops today with this. I didn’t get them Saturday and I noticed another poster mentioning he got donuts in lieu of the nerds. Hmmm I’d rather have the pink sprinklies, LOL.
Anyway wanted to ask if you guys happen to know how long these will be available? I’m assuming until the October end date but you know what they say about assuming…
Thank you.

The new decs should stick around until the end of the event.
Love the Twonicorn. I laughed when it barfed its magical rainbow.
PRIVATE TO EA: Please release the green tents for Kamp Krusty! And the potted ficus plant! PLEASE! oxox
Great update. Love the guillotine. Ha ha. And the double outhouse. Hilarious.
Thanks for the quick post ADDICTS.
I like that they added more stuff to buy with the elixir. I have stopped upgrading my castles because I don’t want to keep adding to the defense, so the elixir has really been adding up as I go for that final prize. Good to have something to spend it on now.
I also like finding cool places to put these items. For example I put the catapult since the catapult uses a cat, I put it with the crazy cat lady’s house.
Now that level 21 on the castles is a reasonable amount it would be interesting to know how the higher levels work. Is it always one wall per level, or does it give a turret or anything else down the line? For people who want to expand those castles this could be a way to do it without donuts.
What i’m seeing is it’s a 1,000 elixir increase each new level (so 10,500 Level 21, 11,500 Level 22 etc) and it’s 1 wall awarded at each new level. Ran out of elixir so i can’t test it much more beyond Level 22.
Thanks! I’ll probably do a few levels for the Bart and Lisa castles before the event ends to grab a few more walls. Even with the new items (and hopefully more coming) it still seems like I’ll have lots of leftover purple stuff with a month left in the event.
Definitely getting the Fort, was saving up for the brewery, but have been envious of everyone with the Fort for quite a while, so is an absolute must-have! On the fence when it comes to the freakshow, we’ll see. Will buy all the elixer stuff though, love those, especially the windmill.
Fort is a good deal! Freakshow tent…meh. I got it for free last Halloween and honestly it just sits there…
No updates of any kind today on my android … even did troubleshooting steps.
Took a bit to trigger mine. I had to restart my device a few times to get it to go. Played the game a lil bit too first, then restarted.
Mine updated on droid, def getting Fort sensible, been needing that for a while. Guess I’ll have to purchase more land. Everytime I’m getting my town just right, a new building or landmark gets released.
That’s always the case lol.
A great mini update…..I want windmill and the tents….and. Got 10 doughnuts from EA because I didn’t get the nerds last Saturday good day and Wookie says it will get better this weekend;-)
Finally the Fort and the Freakshow have been waiting for those 2, but I need more land, lot’s of land.
It updated for a 3th time and I got it all back lol thank god
you forgot satans anvil for 225 donuts.
I like the update! It give a kind of yard sale type + some redesigned items.
outhouse village here I come!
Devil’s Anvil is available for 225 donuts I believe.
the level 20 castle walls are down to 10,500 in elixir (at least for castle recycle as that’s the one I’ve been upgrading
it also seems that many happy local (like the side show) have returned to the store
EA just took it all back after I got the windmill. It was a nother update
They must’ve fixed the glitch were you get more rewards for sending 1 nerd to each building vs multiple nerds per building, based on the dialogue post update
Fort Sensible came back!! Which I bought immediately! I’ve been saving up to buy Camp Krusty, but I have wanted the fort for a while now. WOO HOO!!!!
Twonicorn buyer’s guide: Con: It costs 70 donuts. Pro: It upchucks a rainbow. Verdict: Buy immediately!
