Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
The Monorail has finally arrived. Yes, the Monorail is now in Springfield….and it’s only natural that Krusty’s trying to promote himself throughout the event. After all, he’s gotta make a living somehow & what better way than with Krusty’s Drive-Thru Monorail Station (because who doesn’t need fries with a Monorail ride?) 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 Krusty’s Drive-Thru Station to YOUR Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this station to YOUR Springfield!
Building: Krusty’s Drive-Thru Station (Note: you do NOT get the truck with it, it’s only there to show you get Track Pieces with it)
Donut Price: 150 Donuts
Earns: Possums/4hrs (starts at 8 and increases as you add more tracks)
Conform-O-Meter Impact: Gluttony +10
Size: 8×12
Leaves the game August 28th
Pros:
-Comes with additional tracks (I got 4 long straights, 2 curves, 2 s curves and 2 short. )
-Comes with it’s own monorail car (unless you connect it to tracks that attach to another station, then it’s just 1 car for all the tracks)
-Spawns possums/4hrs (just like the regular station) to help increase your blueprint count.
Cons:
-Pricey for just another station
-While the additional possums are nice, they’re not that significant in your overall blueprint need.
–No character interaction Conductor Homer has a task there (or the regular station)
Additional Station pieces available:
Leaves the store on August 28th
Personal thought on the pieces…PASS. They’re not worth the donuts.
Final Thought:
Premium Take:
This is one of those…if you like it get it items. If you want the station and you think it looks cool pick it up. Otherwise pass. If you’re worried about getting another station, I can tell you it looks like more will be coming for free via future acts. So don’t get it just because you want another station. Personally, I’m passing on it. Just doesn’t have enough benefit for me to pick it up..
Freemium Take:
Again….stay away…stay far far away from this one. In my opinion, it’s just not worth those hard earned freemium donuts. There’s no real benefit to adding it to your town, other than having an additional station. And you’ll earn more stations as the event progresses. So in my mind, this is a complete freemium pass.
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 as a premium player I’m passing on this one. Just not worth it to me. However, this IS a limited-time item. So if you’re thinking about getting it make sure you make your final decision before it leaves our games.
