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 the Wilted Rose to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this Old Folks Brothel to your town.
Building/Decoration: Wilted Rose
Donut Cost: 60 Donuts
Size: 4×5
Earns: $200, 22xp/8hrs
Conform-O-Meter Impact: Consumerism +10
Leaves stores on May 3rd…
Pros
-Comes with a questline
-Hilarous 4hr animated task for Agnes
-Fits nicely with the western look if you’re doing a western area in your town
Cons
-Adds no value to the event itself, no currency bonus, no bandit spawns
-Agnes’ task does not, currently, pay at a premium rate
Final Thought:
Premium:
So here’s the deal with this one…the only value it adds to your Springfield (besides the cash and XP..which most Premium Players don’t care too much about) is the hilarious animated task for Anges. So this is one of those, if you like it get it items for me. It’s not a bad buy, certainly better than Frink’s spider that’s for sure!
Freemium:
Honestly, pass on this one. It’s not going to add much value to your Springfield and you’re going to get a ton of Wild West themed buildings throughout the remainder of the event. So I would pass on this and save those donuts for some premium characters coming down the pike…
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 will probably end up picking this up before Act 1 ends, but I’m still on the fence just a bit. Whatever you decide, just make sure you make your final decision before it leaves our games on May 3rd.
