Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Well right in the middle of the Terwilliger Event we get…another Event! Well, an episode tie-in for this Sunday’s episode of The Simspsons, The Kids Are All Fight. And with this little weekend event arrives a creepy looking clown (“can’t sleep clown’ll eat me”)…how fitting for a Sideshow Bob Event! Now I know you may be trying to decide if this is worth YOUR donuts, but don’t sweat it! We’re here to tell you what’s worth the donuts and what you might want to hold off on.
Wondering if you should add the Nightmare Pile to YOUR Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this nightmare to YOUR Springfield!
Building/Decoration: Nightmare Pile
Donut Price: 100 Donuts
Bonus %: 3% bonus on all cash and XP
Conform-O-Meter: Vanity +1000
Where Can I Place It?: Grass /Pavement/Beach/Boardwalk
Size: 3×3
Unique?: Yes, only 1 per Springfield
What Does It Do?: Brings back Halloween Costumes for selection TSTO youngsters!
Pros:
-Comes with a nice bonus % (at 3%)
-Similar to Moon Bounce, Channel 6 and others…will add a 4 hour task for a select group of children
-Makes it Halloween year round in Springfield, as the kids tasks are to wear the Halloween Costumes.
-It’s the creepy clown! One of the more iconic items from the Simpsons
Cons:
-Takes a while to unlock all of the costumes for the kids to wear. (you have to complete a 2hr task 3 times to unlock the costume for each child. More details are here)
-Only one child can wear a costume at a time
For those curious…here’s what the costumes look like for each kid.
REMEMBER: These are not individual skins for each character. They’ll only show up on your character when they’re on the task with the Nightmare Pile. So you won’t see them listed as a character skin for that character.
Here’s a look at the children that will have a task there:
Final Thought:
Premium Take:
Personally, I’m picking this up…but for one reason and one reason only. I love the clown bed. Way back before Addicts started, the clown bed is one of the things Wookiee and I became friends over (that and Christmas lights). So I’m grabbing it purely for that reason and that reason alone. (especially since I hate Halloween)
Here’s the premium take on this beyond the sentimental attachment…it’s pricey for what it is. Not thrilled with the fact that only one child can do the task at a time. So as a premium player, it’s not a must buy. If you like Halloween and like the Halloween costumes, it’s a good pick up. Otherwise save those donuts for something better…unless of course you just love the clown bed like I do 🙂
Freemium Take:
Freemium players, this one is a pass for sure. The donuts aren’t worth it for what it does. You’re better off saving those hard earned pink sprinkles for something better down the road….
Of course in the end it’s your decision, we can only tell you what we would/wouldn’t do…and I can tell you, I’m grabbing those one…but not really for any practical reasons. However, whatever you decide just remember that this nightmare will be leaving our stores soon, so if you’re thinking about it getting it make sure you make your final decisions before April 28th or you’ll miss your chance.
