Hey there Hoppereenos!
EA has stuck pretty close to their methods and dropped a Level Update on us in the middle of an Event. (And you thought you didn’t have enough going on. Lol.) Level 50 is here. WON’T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN??!!!
For the basics on Level 50 overview, see the post HERE.
For starting the new Level, you will need to have completed the previous Levels prior to move on. So you need Game Play Level 47 & 48 & 49 done to move on to 50 (Main Walkthroughs complete). You also need to make sure you XP Level is at 50.
Now to the Random Changes….
First off, with another new level comes more new pricing. This means all items on previous levels will move down in cost. WOOHOO!! Following are the new price changes for the current Buildings in the town. The Base price of the building is in red. The multipliers for the Level will be next to them. You can see how they decrease as a new level hits.
Level 50: 4X Cost
Level 49: 4X Cost
Level 48: 3X Cost
Level 47: 2X Cost
Level 46: 1.6X Cost
Level 45: 1.4X Cost
Level 44: 1.3X Cost
Level 43: 1.3X Cost
(Level 42-1: No Multiplier)
As you can see to top two highest levels and bottom two are the same, so during those blocks you won’t see a change. Think of it this way. When you buy a car brand new, it is at its top dollar mark up cost. Overtime, the car depreciates in value and continues to until it hits the bottom or base cost. Same here. The Buildings are expensive brand new, but in time after more NEW things are introduced, its originally cost will drop.
If you want an overall on ALL the pricing, check out our Realty Guide Page.

NEW XP LEVEL
With Each New Level comes a New XP Requirement. The cool part of this is if you are leveling up with your XP quite fast, you may already hit and almost be complete with the New XP Level depending on how much XP you earned before getting there. (Placing the New Buildings usually gives it a big XP jump too.)
UPDATE: My apologies. Computer and signal issues last night allowed the incomplete draft version (as well as some stats I was working on for something else) to go live instead of the correct version. Sorry for any confusion. Disregard the info that was posted in this section.
SIMPLE CHANGES
Jessica Lovejoy has been added as a Kid that can go for a task at the Moonbounce at Premium Pay. Janey’s task has returned to Regular Pay on it.
CONFIRM DONUT SPEND
And of course, your constant reminder (as we ALWAYS get comments on this)…check that Confirm Donut Spend. NO ONE wants to lose donuts on accidental sped up tasks or purchases. The new menu, you will find this in any menu by tapping the cog wheel in the top right corner. (You can also reset your sound from here.)

ON
Got some technical issues from the new update that we were unable to help with? Try the usual Basic Troubleshooting, and if you need more help…contact EA.
So there are a few random changes. I am still looking to see if anything more pops ups. I will update this post if I do. What do you think of the new stuff? Any changes you see that we have not listed? Let us know.
~Bunny
So just today I went to my KrustyLand and had SideShow Bob show up running around and I captured him. Is this new or has this been around and I just haven’t seen it before or was it just a glitch?
He goes there too. 😉
Has anyone had problems wirh purchasing donuts? I have been trying for a few days and i cant get any. Sometimes it will say sonething about store loading and then sorry unable to load or something to that effect. Also get the same message numerous times in past week or so when i try to do the scratch off ticket.. Im not buying one just the usual scratch off one and it goes to store loading and then cant load and when i hit it again the scratch screen comes up like normal. When trying to buy donuts it opens up the menu for purchasing cash after all the messages about loading and cant load. Is it just me or is something amiss?
You may have a bad connection to your app market. What device do you use?
For me, I would suggest to log out of your game… go to your app market… and log out of that too if you can. Then restart your device. Once up, check your signal. Make sure it is good and solid. Then go back to your app market and sign back in. Then launch the game and try again.
what about the extra land ? there is also new land to buy in this update
Nope the new land came with Level 49…
Has the timer been changed for the Superior Squad HQ? I’m sure it was an eight hour cycle before, which was giving me real concerns about the rate I could get capes for crafting, but as of the update it now seems to be dropping every four hours? That doubles the Cape generation rate so crafting will ease up some. Either that or it came with a building upgrade, but level 19 that I got yesterday seems an odd one to put in a big change like that on. Sadly the felon generation still seems to be eight hours, so handcuffs are still a grind to get.
HQ has always been every 4hrs.
Weird, I could have sworn it was an eight hour drop.
HQ has always been 4 🙂 Are you sure you’re not thinking of the Felons?
No, I definitely thought both capes and cuffs were every eight hours, and spent time working out how long it would take to get stuff! Maybe I need a rest :o)
The ONLY thing EA hasn’t fixed, is this game app from crashing and / or network issues (sorry, but this game app is going on to its 3 year and these issues should have been dealt with)!
I am glad to see Level 50 has arrived, there seems to be an even mix of Freemium and Premium. 🙂
Are you sure the problem isn’t at your end? I haven’t had game crashing or network issues since the Christmas event ended (I think), and definitely not since this event started! I play on two different devices and neither have been having any problems…
Just a quick one, when did the “multi-store” feature turn up, I am pretty sure it’s only in the last couple of levels or so but ‘ain’t it perfect for fence-storing!
I believe it was with Level 49
Soooo handy!
Thanks for the email address i just sent email with screenshots. .
It occurs to me now seeing Janey mentioned in this post…I’m at level 48 (nearly 49!) and the task that unlocks her has never triggered for me. Is there something I can do to make that happen?
Never mind! I see now that I just triggered the Freddy Quimby quest, so I’m behind
No worries… you’ll be at 50 before you know it.
Is there any chance some of the latest updates changed the drop rate on the criminals? My incredibly unscientific “feels like” meter says there are more pie bomb criminals all of a sudden. Also, they seem to have changed from avoiding the screen location to gathering at the screen location. Is this all just wishful thinking?
Nope, no changes…
it’s not just you. It seems random at the moment but sometimes the criminals gather towards your screen location and other times they just completely ignore it. I haven’t yet worked out why.
Also, occasionally I see an Issue 1 criminal wondering around my town (no rainbow wig). They don’t seem to behave any different or give different payout. Anyone know what these are all about. Is it a glitch?
Nope they both just randomly can appear in your game…
I just downloaded an update from the App Store today (March 5). Does anyone know what that was about? I don’t see any changes. I’m already on level 50, and I have Helen Lovejoy doing her quest, etc.
Patch. Nothing more.
its the same update we got on android on Feb.24th: v. 4.13.2.
the only change is:
when the game is closed (without force closing) and reopened the game will, most of the times, continue where it left off without restarting.
really cool 😀
UH huh… lil patch. It works… bout 75-85% of the time for me now. 😉
Ah i dont use instagram or fliker 🙂 thanks
I use DropBox for doing that… It’s free and easy to upload stuff to and it’s not, inherently, another “social” app. (Actually, IIRC, I got that DropBox account specifically for this purpose!)
You could use Dropbox, like do. It works like a charm.
Thanks i will look into it
Is there an email i can use to send screenshots 🙂 have tom o flanagan teachin jimbo to irish dance for paddys day and some funky glitches!! 🙂 to lazy to go lookin throught the site..Thanks
tstoaddictsblog@gmail.com
I read on a post that you can paste screenshots to a post but i cant 🙁
Just copy n paste a link to your photo. From Flickr, Instagram, etc.
I seem to be having technology problems this morning so I apologize if my question got asked twice, but the question seems to not appear when I look through this thread.
I got upped to level 50 yesterday but require 620,000xp before “finishing” the level (and getting to win donuts). Why is my XP so much higher than your post indicates? Any idea? I have had to earn anywhere from 600,000 to 900,000xp to max out any level since about level 45.
Also, my game seems to be logging in where ever I left off geographically last time, it even opens directly into Krustyland if that’s where I was last. I saw that I am not alone in this. I uninstalled/reinstalled and no change, but it doesn’t seem to have a negative impact.
Refresh the post and look at the section again. YOURS is fine. You are seeing the XP Level requirements for the current Level to hit bonus.
As for previous Levels… those don’t matter. A new threshold has been set. Each New Level you have the chance of hitting the Bonus XP round. It will never be the same each level and will vary in amounts on how many times YOU keep hitting the Bonus XP (it increases each time). As you have seen, the bonus XP resets to zero… and you have to fill it up again and again for another chance at free 3 donut boxes.
Where you are XP count wise when the New Level hits will determine how far into the new level you are. If the new Level 51 will require… lets say… 750,000 XP and you are at 850,000 XP when it hits in your Bonus round… the game will kick you out of Bonus… Level you up… and you will have an additional 100,000 XP already counting towards the new level. Make Sense?
How do you get level 50 to launch?
You need to focus on Game Play Levels ie Walkthroughs. Each Level has a questline and characters involved in the walkthrough. You can’t progress to the next level until you complete the one before it. What walkthroughs have you completed? Level 47, 48, and 49? If so, do you have Milhouse free?
While tapping through neighbour towns, I noticed someone had a dead Radioactive Man laying in the middle of a field. He wasn’t beside the exploded building that killed him in the opening animation, he was off alone in a field. Is this a glitch, or is there a way to actually get and place dead Radioactive Man?
My best guess… glitch or an “altered” game.
Just to be clear, it’s the level of the building, not the town that the multiplier goes off of?
? Buildings don’t have “Levels”. The Game has Levels. Right now, Level 50 is the top Game Level. THAT is what it goes off of. When Level 51 hits, it will go off Level 51 and everything will drop down a Level as a new one has hit. Repeating every New Level that EA releases.
OK, I’ll try to explain it a slightly different way.
House of Pancakes was released with level 50. Base price is $250,000 and multiplier is 4x so price is $1,000,000. When level 51 is released, House of pancakes will still have 4x multiplier, so price will stay the same. When level 52 is released, however, multiplier for House of Pancakes will drop to 3x, and price will then be $750,000. When level 53 is released, multiplier drops to 2x so price drops to $500,000. This continues in this manner until the multiplier drops to 1.0 (which, for the House of Pancakes, will be with level 58) at which time the price for this building will be $250,000. It won’t drop further unless EA makes a manual change to the price for some reason.
So when Bunny lists the buildings and the levels, she is showing us the multiplier for buildings that were released with a particular level.
This only matters if you haven’t purchased a particular building yet — the price may have dropped for you when the new level came out. It doesn’t affect the payout from the building if you already have it.
Sorry to post this here I don’t think I can do a screenshot using a kindle so maybe someone can recreate this it’s quite funny so what you need burning Bush beside log cabin that has gas tank thingy destroyed Brown house beside it homer barbarian angry at noobs dolph acting out aggression,Giuseppe dropping fireworks , to make even funnier you could have Wiggum walking past and have Ralph burning things
Don’t know what kind of Kindle you have, but on my “original” Kindle Fire HD, you can do a screen capture by holding down the volume down button and the power button simultaneously. It can be a little tricky to get the hang of, but it works! 🙂
I have to admit, though, it is easier to do that on my iPad…
For the XP levels…I’m currently on level 49 the game is saying I need a total of 591380 XP to reach level 50 while your saying 155K or so…am I reading that correctly?
Disregard it. That was partial information I was working on. What your game is saying is correct. 😉
Had to share this with my fellow addicts and can’t wait for the weekend.
Hubby and I were watching the Oscars on the DVR and were in the middle of the memoriam section when homer chimed in with “better them than me”.
Needless to say we were both laughing hysterically.
hahahaha that’s great! 🙂
Lol! 😀
I don’t remember hearing Homer say that one in my game… Is it just one of the comments he makes when being tapped or sent on a task?
@Sandra — It’s one of the game notification sounds that sometimes play when the game wants you to know that something completed. My friend’s iPhone plays it all the time, but I have never heard it on my device (but that might be because I’ve turned off all the notifications).
Thanks, et – that explains it! I have notifications turned off on my Kindle altogether, and sound notifications turned off on my iPad.
I used to get slightly embarassed in meetings if I’d forgotten to silent my phone 😉
I expect you’re working on it, and if you are, I apologize for asking, but has there been a change to the conform-o-meter?
Yes…Level 50 brought Changes. Working out getting the timed stuff out first (like SIB on the Cave and Turbo Tappin’) then that will be up 🙂
As always, you guys are awesome. I really am amazed how you can maintain this site so well, with work, families, lives, and your own games and other hobbies. I know I say it a lot, but it is very appreciated. 🙂
my current xp amount to top out on level 50 is somewhere in the neighborhood of 600,000xp…are you saying that isn’t right?
Yours is right. Disregard that section of post. It wasn’t supposed to go live.
I notice that I seem to be coming back to Springfield in the same geographic place I leave it now as well. ..
That’s been happening to me too, and even comes back to krustyland if that’s where I was last
Hmmm… It’s still opening at the HQ on my Kindle Fire HD every time; I’ll check out out on my iPad tonight and see if that’s any different.
Doing this to me as well, I don’t really mind, forces me to scroll around a bit more 😉
There was an update today. The bart cave is gone, the house of pancakes which I paid in full is gone (not yet finished of course since < 24h), all my FPs are gone.
Uh oh…you got the dreaded roll back. Best thing to do is contact EA and let them know what happened, they’ll be able to restore it back. (or at least your cash and donuts)
I also noticed a new friend level? I get fp again instead of the occasional donut.. nice way to get people to buy more donuts, but what is the prize?
Details are in the rundown post…
http://tstoaddicts.com/2015/03/04/the-big-5-0-level-50-is-here/
wait a minute so i lost $750,000 buying municipal house of pancakes last night? what a rip. i think i just lost my “pro” status at the “crastination” station. ametuer-crastinator coming through.
No. That’s the base price, it won’t hit the base price for 8 more level updates. As the post says…the base price is in red. The current price is in black. Each new level there’s a multiplier that hits the base, so the price drops. Reread the post 😉
Lol every time there’s someone who doesn’t read and gets upset… Every time
Uh huh….
Actually it took me quite a while to understand this. Even now if someone were to ask me, I think I may not be able to explain fully.
It’s like buying a DVD or BD at the store — when it’s a new release, it costs more. After awhile, the price comes down. The multipliers are just an explanation of how the price decrease is going to work. And just like movies, eventually, they all end up in the cheap bin!
hey the Book Burning Mobile is also part of the x4, base price: 50000 – costs 100000
also a few more changes:
Mrs. Krabapell and Agnes were added to the Investorettes group.
The unreleased “Bartman Cave” and “Book Burning Mobile” were released.
Bart and Milhouse were added to the Investorettes Boys group.
Two new Friend Points levels and prizes were added.
Jebediah Statue was changed to an Animated Decoration.
Janey’s Moonbounce task reward changed from Cash.png310 and XP.png70 to Cash.png225 and XP.png45.
Krustyland’s Unoriginal Quest questline trigger was changed from Milhouse to Auto trigger.
In Churchy Joes character group, Reverend Lovejoy and Father Sean swapped places, Helen and Jessica Lovejoy were added and the reward for completing the collection changed
from Cash.png500 and XP.png10 to Cash.png1,000 and XP.png20.
The reward for completing the collection Exotic Animals And Pets changed Cash.png1,000 and XP.png20 to Cash.png1,250 and XP.png25.
A commented character collection was added: Lovejoy Family.
Bartman was given a new 16h job with the Bartman Cave: Use The Bart Phone.
Animations for Agnes, Hans Moleman, Judge Snyder, Krusty, Lisa, Lurleen, Sideshow Mel, Superintendent Chalmers, Suzanne The Witch and Willie were changed.
Thank you for sharing your findings too. Much appreciated. 😉
Just an FYI why I do NOT put in all that stuff…. I did notice the Book Mobile, however as the Book Mobile is not a building I did not list it with the Buildings. It is tagged as a Decoration. I also want to ensure that EA does not change that and am waiting confirmation on it. I have seen it happen in the past with other Decorations accidentally tagged with Building rates. So I am keeping an eye on it.
As for the rest, I already noted in this post the change to the Moonbounce… Friend Points were already covered in the main post itself along with most the other info. The lil stuff… we never really posted as it does not impact or change basic game play. This post is mainly for things that will impact a players game play. 🙂
I’m interested to know more about the animation changes for Agnes, Lisa, etc. When would one see the new/changed animations for those characters?
This is why WE don’t post these “lil things”. Some are so subtle (walk left instead of right) that no one would even notice. Let me put it this way… EVERY update… EVERY patch… EA “changes animation” on a character. This could be making the blue… bluer. Making the details in the left pocket a lil darker/lighter. Making 3 strands of hair poke out of the right arm instead of two. Tasks animated for 1.357 seconds now animates 1.352 seconds. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many teeny tiny lil minuscule details that only the artists really may notice that it would more confuse readers than help them. So, we focus on the BIG changes. Like when the size of a building becomes enormous or teeny. Or like when they changed the brick walls into skinny lil sections instead of the full amount. THOSE are the changes we focus on. 😉
If I was to post all the actual “changes” to the game, we would need another entire site for just those posts. I think the time spent already on the important details is good enough. 😉
Agreed! And thanks for the clarification! 🙂
Its just graphical changes. Better quality. They started doing it recently
Fruitbatman has been confirmed *******
Confirmed by who? Remember, unless it’s confirmed by EA we don’t post it. Until it’s released by EA it’s just a rumor and subject to change at any time. 🙂
http://tstoaddicts.com/2014/12/02/addicts-guidelines-overview/
How about this conformating by EA? The Fruitbat man has a placeholder in the Character Inventory of TSTO in the category Vigilantes.
Doesn’t really prove anything. Fruit Batman’s been in the game since 2013….they’re always reshuffling/changing character categories.
I’m not saying he won’t appear, I’m just saying our policy on this site is to not reveal any spoilers unless they’re confirmed directly by EA.
I instantly leveled to 48 when I opened the game. I was at least two days away from leveling up before. Really happy I got up a boost though lol
At the start of the Super Hero event Mrs. Lovejoy was present in the starter story, so I was expecting here already.
she was already in previous storylines too 😉
Now lets just hope all those others who have had their icons used are set to come soon! Specifically Lindsey and Cookie!:p
I’m level 50; but, the old abandoned warehouse is still 708,000. When does it go down in price?
As the post says…
The Multiples are as follows:
Level 50: 4X Cost
Level 49: 4X Cost
Level 48: 3X Cost
Level 47: 2X Cost
Level 46: 1.6X Cost
Level 45: 1.4X Cost
Level 44: 1.3X Cost
Level 43: 1.3X Cost
(Level 42-1: No Multiplier)
Both Level 50 AND Level 49 have the same multipler right now…therefore Level 49 buildings do not experience a price drop yet. However, once Level 51 hits, they will.
