Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
It’s Chili Cook-Off time in Springfield! Gather up those Insanity Peppers and get ready to lose your mind, as we take a journey with the residents of our pocket-sized Springfields for the hottest Chili known to man! So bust open those crock pots and grab some donuts because there are several Chili Cook-Off themed premium items in our stores to grab!
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 Proshop and Space Coyote to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this spirit guide to your Springfield.
Building/Decoration: Pro Shop
Character: Space Coyote
Donut Cost: 120 Donuts
Size: 10×10, and it’s quite tall. Side by side I would say it’s about the same size (heigh wise) as the Exclusive Resort
Earns: Coyote Earns 4 every 3hrs
Conform-O-Meter Impact: Consumerism +20
Leaves stores on June 15th…but the earlier you buy the better
Pros
-Comes with a questline
-Premium character earns 50% more cash and XP on tasks
-Fun animate tasks
-Earns at a premium rate, 4/3hrs..vs 2/3hrs for regular characters
-One of the more recent, highly requested characters
-Coyote will use the Pro Shop
Cons
-Not voiced
-Questline is short, only 3 parts
-Best animated task requires Homer
Final Thought:
Premium:
Plain and simple…if you’re a premium player. A true premium player, get this one. It’s an ok price for a combo, will help with the event…and it’s a classic character. Pick him up, you won’t be sorry.
Freemium:
This is one of those Freemium toss ups. It’s ok priced, and it does help with the event overall. However, if you’ve been saving those bonuts for something else…you may want to hold off. There are other premium characters that’ll be more useful to you as TSTO goes on.
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 already picked this one up. Just make sure that you pick him up sooner rather then later if you’re thinking about getting him. The sooner he’s in the game the more beneficial he’ll be to you!
Note: Space Coyote does come with a questline. Personally I think you should hold off on completing the questline until the event is over (it’ll still be around), so that you can use him to earn peppers..
Here’s a look at the Space Coyote’s Permanent Tasks:
Task | Length | Earns | Location |
Bite Homer’s Leg | 1hr | $175, 43xp | Outdoor/Visual |
Scratch Spirit Fleas | 1hr | $105, 26xp | Simpson House |
Guide Vison Questers | 4hrs | $260, 70xp | Outdoor/Visual |
Sell Chili at the Pro-Shop | 8hrs | $420, 105xp | Pro Shop |
Play with Wiggle Puppy | 12hrs | $600, 150xp | Wiggum House |
Discuss Indian Philosophy | 24hrs | $1,000, 225xp | Kwik-E-Mart |
What are your thoughts on the Space Coyote? Will you be picking him up? Or did you already? Where have you placed the Pro Shop in your town? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
Dear Alissa, thank you for the analysis, but let’s not forget the nostalgia factor & magic of that seminal Coyote episode. Coyote himself roaming the streets of our Sfields & biting Homer’s leg?? MUST HAVE!! Like having another SLHelper, more pets on streets! With coin tasks!! To me & prolly many others, the episode is 1 of the best & most original Classic Episodes. This baby just turned up in my Yearbook Mystery Box so I’m gagging! I also love that Proshop is a Maya/Aztec pyramide!! Will look great w/ my Aztec theatre & Olmec friend head *heart eyes*
You mean recent in the show or by request?
