Turbo Tappin’ Springfield Casino: Act 2

Posted on March 7, 2016 by | 103 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

The Casino Event Act 2 is now live in our games, are you feeling lucky?!

With the launch of Act 2 a new questline has arrived to help move us through the Casino storyline, and earn more chips!  Act 2 runs until March 17th…when Act 3 will start.

Remember, the questline is there to guide you.  So when you get stuck on something, or haven’t unlocked something, just follow along with the questline and it’ll take you through everything you need to do to complete the first Act and unlock everything you need in order to play properly (ie neighbor actions, gamblers to tap, crafting etc).  Just look for the Gold Token Icon ico_casino_gametoken_lg in your task bar.  Any tasks you see associated with that icon are related to the event.  So, if you’re stuck…keep going until you no longer see that token.

So let’s take a look at the questline to see just what you need to do to build your own mini Vegas in your pocket-sized Springfield…

Casino Event Act 2 is Live!

Posted on March 7, 2016 by | 393 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Welcome to the wee early morning hours…at least here on the East Coast.  It’s just after 3am and the Casino Event Act 2 is now live!  (hey if this were Vegas you’d be up all night too…)

Remember…this is an automatic change in your game.  Nothing to download, it should just start up in your game..

Things should auto-start for you with a task for Mr. Burns.  (if you don’t see it start up it’s most likely because you haven’t placed the Dice Den.  You’ll need to place the Dice Den to start Act 2, which also means you’ll need to finish The Old Man and the ‘Sino questline)

Just what does Act 2 have in store for us?  Let’s take a look…

Addicts Open Thread

Posted on March 6, 2016 by | 846 comments

REMINDER: ACT 1 ENDS TONIGHT!  Act 2 will start tomorrow morning at 0800 GMT (3am EST).  So finish up collecting those Red Chips and earning the Act 1 prizes because come tomorrow morning at 0800 GMT (3am EST), you’ll no longer be able to win those prizes via the Red Chip prize track.  Worried about prepping for Act 2?  Check out this post.

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

It’s that time of the week again, time for the Addicts Weekly Open Thread!  So, let’s get the conversation going!  Oh and remember…just because this is posted here today doesn’t mean you can’t comment on it all week long.  This open thread will still be open for comments long after today is over!

Here’s where you can talk about anything you want to talk about…TSTO Related, Simpson’s Related or ANYTHING.  Just no Add me requests…those should go here.  We’ll give you a few suggestions (like most Sunday’s you can talk about the current episode of the Simpsons) but for the most part you’re free to talk about ANYTHING your little Tapping Fingers desire…just keep it PG.

So…here is your Open Thread. The Simpsons are all new tonight, what do you think will happen in the new episode?

Casino Update Act 1 ends tonight and Act 2 starts tomorrow morning.  How have you done with your Act 1 prizes?  How’s your crafting coming?

How’s your Casino designing coming along?  Having fun with figuring out where to put all these casino inspired items?  Building your own Vegas Strip?  Have you checked out our community design post?

 

Spring is coming…it’s already March 6th, is the weather starting to warm up where you are?

How was your weekend? Do anything fun and exciting?

So chat about the Simpsons, TSTO, Update fun, or anything else you can think of!  Can’t wait to chat with you all, you know we love hearing from you!

Have Fun!  And happy Sunday!

Meanwhile, Marge moonlights as a crime scene cleaner for a little extra money, and the trauma of the gory scenes make her increasingly dead inside.“

Posted on March 4, 2016 by | 140 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Viva Las Springfield!  The Casino Event has arrived in Springfield…and it’s full of Vegas inspired decorations, buildings and games!

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 Red Chips (ico_casino_redchip_lg) to unlock each prize!

The fifth, and final, Act 1 prize awarded at 101,200 ico_casino_redchip_lg (or +29,600 from the Britannia Casino) is Lucius Sweet…because it’s not Vegas without a prize fight and it’s promoter…
