THOH Prize Guide: Act 1, Prize 3…Pirate Kang

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Well here we are, in most Tappers favorite time of the year in Springfield….Halloween!  (although I prefer Christmas 😉 )  The leaves on the tress have changed colors, the water is murky and there’s a darkness that falls over our TSTO screens.  All of these effects fit in perfectly with this year’s theme….Nightmares.

This Event is broken up into 3 Acts, with each Act containing part of the story.  To help you move along with the event you’ll get several prizes per Act.  Each prize will either be something fun for Springfield or something to help you move along in the event.  For the first Act you’re tasked with collecting S’mores () to unlock each prize!

The third Act 1 prize awarded at 2,160  (or +1,620 from unlocking the Spooky Cabin) is Pirate Kang, an all new hilarious costume for everyone’s favorite Alien Kang!

So let’s take a closer look at this third prize and just what happens when you unlock them it your Springfield…

Once you’ve collected 2,160   (or 1620 more  from prize two) you’ll automatically be awarded Pirate Kang and you’ll see this message popup:

IF you don’t currently have Kang the costume will automatically be stored in your inventory…

And the costume will be hanging out in your inventory until you unlock Kang…

Kang has been a free character for the last couple of years now…so the only way you won’t have him is if you started playing AFTER 4th of July 2015.  However, the good news is he’s still free and you can get him during THOH 2015 as well.  He’ll be awarded to you during the A Proper Rigellian Thanksgiving questline.  So don’t ignore that one if you don’t already have Kang.

If you already have Kang, you’ll unlock his costume right away…

And he’s part of the Treehouse of Horror XXVI Freaks Character Set:
