Should I Spend Donuts On Frink’s Mechano Spider?

Advertisements

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

YeeHaw!  The Wild West has arrived in our pocket-sized Springfields!  With bandits to tie up, guns to sling, gold to pan & gold ole’ Homer getting everyone all riled up! So bust open the vaults and grab those donuts because there are loads of new Wild West themed premium items in our stores!

Of course with that limited-time label it can be tempting to buy everything because it’ll be gone soon.  But don’t sweat it!  That’s where we come in to tell you what’s worth those donuts and what you might want to hold off on.

Wondering if you should add Frink’s Mechano Spider to your Springfield?  Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this Wild Wild West Spider to your town.

Building/Decoration: Frink’s Mechano Spider
Donut Cost: 130 Donuts
Size: 8×11
Earns: 3.5% Cash and XP 
Conform-O-Meter Impact: Obedience +10

Leaves stores on May 3rd…

Pros
-Comes with a questline
-Fun animated task for Frink if you have him (Visual animation there)
-Adds a nice bonus % to your town

Cons
-Extremly pricey
-Pretty pointless to add unless you have Frink

For those asking, it does not move around your town.  It is stationary, even when Frink is using it.  It’s animated, but does not move around the town. 

Final Thought:
Premium or Freemium:
Honestly, I’m not a fan of this one.  While it comes with a questline, has a decent bonus & a fun animation for Frink…in my opinion it’s just not worth it.  130 donuts is too much to pay for a hunk of metal in your Springfield, freemium or premium.  I’d avoid this one..Of course I know there are premium players out there (*cough cough* Ryan *cough cough* ;)) who will say this is awesome…and that’s ok.  But honestly, my opinion is to save your donuts for something better and completely pass on this one.

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 completely passing on this one.  Just make sure you make your final decision before it leaves our games on May 3rd.
