Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Level 53 arrived in Springfield last week and with it arrives a couple of “pink ladies” as well as some new buildings & decorations to help improve our Conform-O-Meters!
The Conform-O-Meter is an important part of Tapped-Out because it provides you with a bonus boost in your cash and XP from everything you collect in the game. When you achieve a 5-Star Town (it’s max rating) you will receive a 5% bonus on all money and XP collected in your town. If you missed the previous Conform-O-Meter posts check here for the basics and here for how many points you’ll need to reach 5 stars.
Of course with the release of Level 53 many of the requirements to maintain 5 Stars on your Conform-O-Meter have changed, so let’s check it out and see what the new requirements are. So now you’ll have all the information you need to maintain that 5-Star Springfield!
Here are the new requirements to maintain a 5-Star Springfield for Level 53
| Level | Indolence | Obedience | Consumerism/ Gluttony |
| 53 | 570 | 330 | 368/411 |
| Tree-hugging /Vanity |
Righteousness | Socialism | |
| 42,275/64,370 | 329 | 3,450 |
Indolence, Obedience and Consumerism saw no increase from Level 52 to Level 53, however every other area did show an increase. Gluttony saw a 10 point increase each. Tree-hugging saw a 1,850 point increase. While Vanity also saw an increase, this time of 2,500 points. Righteousness also increased, about 12 points (yet again). And rounding out the list Socialism saw a 144 point increase.
