Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Well, in a surprise move…EA has released Superheroes 2 to our App Stores! (a day earlier than most of us thought…)
Back with more as I go through it…for now know that Fallout Boy starts it. If you don’t have Fallout Boy he’ll be awarded to you for free 😉
Quest chain starts:
Fallout Boy- 6s
Pieman (Homer)- 6s
Build Orphan Alley (Free)- 6s Build
This will launch the event hub and items in the store….
More details below the fold…
(So last night, because I was exhausted, I didn’t finish out the questline…which means I didn’t unlock social battle prizes. I’ve covered their details below)
The best way for me to describe my initial impressions of this event is it’s a combination of Superheroes retreads (Criminals are back to tap) and Tap Ball. You’ll have battles, where your heroes will need to fight the enemy. Very similar to Tap Ball. And of course that’s the most efficient want to earn currency to unlock prizes.
I’ll break everything down in the rundown post, and then we’ll have (as always) more detailed posts explaining everything. But that’ll be later tonight, as I’ve got to get Miss Riley and get her ready for bed. So I’ll be back with more a little later this evening…
So so now I’ve had a chance to go through everything, I can finally break it all down for you guys. As mentioned above, this is pretty easy. It’s a combination of Superheroes and Tap Ball. If you were around for both, this should be a breeze for you. 🙂
Issue 1 Ends June 28th…when Issue 2 will start.
First up…the Prize Currency for Issue 1 is Brass Knuckles….
You can earn them via Battles at the Alley, upgrades at Burns’ Summer Mansion (more on that in a bit) and Tapping Criminals.
Quick Currency Guide:
These are the various things you’ll earn throughout Issue 1
Brass Knuckles- Prize Currency for Issue 1
Trading Card- Crafting Currency for Issue 1
Gems- Used to upgrade Heroes for Battle.
Band-Aid- Used to heal Heroes after a Battle.
Sciencewater- Used to instantly heal Heroes during a Battle.
The first building you’ll come across is..
Orphan Alley- Free. 6s Build. 14×13. This is the hub for your battles. We’ll break battles down in another post, but the basics are you send your heroes to battle the Felons at the Alley. 
Winning battles will help you earn more 
and crafting currency. 
Criminals…Yes they’re back! Tap these guys to earn more Trading Cards (crafting currency), Brass Knuckles & Sciencewater. Criminals will earn you 2 
and 3 
. And the occasional 
(Sciecnewater is used to recharge your heroes during battle)
30 max in town, with a bank of 30.
You’ll also be able to tap 3 in a neighbor’s town for the same payouts. You’ll be able to do it once you unlock neighbor actions. (Questline will guide you)
Issue 1 Prizes….
Sciencewater Pack- 2,850
Mylar Baggins- 11,500
Alien- 19,000
First Aid Kit- (20 Band Aids) 23,600
Cyborg Snake- 33,400
Aqua World Main Guard Tower- 41,450
Old King Coal- 52,950
And now the question everyone wants answered…Are There Donuts When You Unlock all of the prizes?
The answer is…Yes!
Superhero Bonus. Every 10,000 you’ll have a chance for donuts. You can earn 1, 2 or 3 Donuts. Just like the Where’s Maggie Game or other games.
Items in the Store for Purchase
Basketball Court- 60 Donuts.
Wholesome & Sons Publishing- 80 Donuts. Earns $135, 15xp/4hrs
Fruit Bat-Signal- $5,000
There may be items I’m missing since I have everything from the last Superheroes.
Burns’ Summer Mansion- Free. 12×15, 6s Build. Upgrade the Mansion (Unlocked during the questline) to increase the Tap Radius for Criminal Tapping and to earn more Brass Knuckles.
I”ll break the Mansion down in another post, but here’s a look at the tasks that can be done there (and who can do them):
Each is 4hrs and earns Earns 2 
, 6
Pie Man
Fallout Boy
Clown Face
The Collector
Cyborg Snake
Old King Coal
Again, the Blueprints are used to upgrade the Mansion. And Mansion Upgrades increase the Tap Radius for tapping Criminals, as well as unlock new facades for the Mansion.
Crafting
Crafting is back for Superheroes 2! And yes…before you even ask, I will be doing a full crafting guide breakdown.
Here’s a quick look at what you can craft:
Small Band-Aid Box- 100 (Contains 5 Band-Aids)
Large Band-Aid Box- 210 (Contains 10 Band-Aids)
First Aid Kit- 420 (Contains 20 Band-Aids)
Springfield Books- 2,410.
The Collector Lucite Statue- 785
The Collector’s Car- 965
Lucite Container- 325
Now pay close attention…these crafting items will LEAVE once Issue 1 ends. It specifically says in the crafting Box “Hurry Up! These items will be swapped for new ones in:
Social Battle Prizes
After you’ve completed a few battles in your own Springfield, you’ll unlock the ability to do Social Battles.
You battle your neighbors just like you do battles in your own Springfield…only this time you’re the bad guy.
You can do 3 Social battles/day…and no more than that.
Social Battles, as mentioned in the guide, will earn you prizes. Some cool things exclusive to the Social Battle prize track. Here’s a look at what you can win:
Tungsten Dude- (Awarded after 10 Battles) Felon to use in neighbor battles.
Sciencewater Cooler- (Awarded after 20 Battles) Contains 9 Sciencewaters
Kiosk- (Awarded after 32 Battles
STEM-antha- (Awarded after 45 Battles) Felon to use in neighbor battles
Trading Card Box- (Awarded after 56 Battles) Contains 500 Trading Cards (used for crafting)
Gluteus- (Awarded after 68 Battles) Felon used in neighbor battles
Pie Man Epic Statue- (Awarded after 80 Battles)
First Aid Kit- (Awarded after 92 Battles) Contains 20 Band-Aids
Meg Ahertz- (Awarded after 105 Battles) Felon used in neighbor battles
One Week Wonder Films- (Awarded after 115 Battles) Earns $300,20xp/24hrs
Because you can only do 3 battles/day, social battle prizes are meant to be paced. And the pace will be SLOW. So don’t stress out about them..everyone is in the same boat. You won’t be able to unlock the first prize until 4 days into the event…so relax. Have fun and enjoy.
Update: A few of you are having trouble getting battles when visiting friends. To activate a battle, assuming the quest has popped for you, tap the fist in the top right corner of their town:
If you don’t see it it’s likely that they haven’t activated the event, you haven’t hit that part in the questline or something else is going on. If you’ve hit that part in the questline go to Other Springfield and check for the fist. If it’s there you know you’ve got it right.
NEW LAND
there’s a new strip of land added to the game with this update. It runs from the ocean to the right. And it’s at the very bottom of your Springfield (opposite the mountain range)
And there you have it my friends…the quick breakdown for the Superheroes Sequel!
What are your thoughts on the event? Liking it so far? Finding it easy? Excited about what’s in store? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
Got it on my android phone and tablet. For the tablet, I had to go to TSTO, as the My Apps page didn’t have it listed. Got it at 2:45 (PDT) or so (or 5:45 EDT).
Do you have an event calendar yet? LOL DID I beat Sandra?
Wait… So they are giving new players Pie Man, Fallout Boy, AND Krusty for FREE? Why… I understand Fallout Boy or Pie-Man, Maybe even 2… But all 3? Whatever. I just want to get all of these Sweet Skins. (So happy that Dr. Crab will be a prize in Week 3.)
While they do get those 3 for free, they are missing out on a lot more stuff that we had the opportunity to get.
I’m personally happy that newer players are getting items for free and hope this opens the door for myself, who’s been playing for three years, to get stuff from four years ago for free in the future.
I suppose they aren’t giving them Doctor Collusus, The Collecter, The Collider, and Radioactive Man, and I kind of see your point. I started 3 years ago as well, and was pleasantly surprised by the mini walking-day event recently. I just really liked having Clownface as an old skin.
Android players the update is up in the app store got it around a half hour ago
Aside from Pie Man Homer, Clownface Krusty, and Fallout Boy, does anyone know if any other characters from Superheroes 1 can help earn Superheroes 2 currency?
SAFI, I know Fruit Bat Man (Premium Burns Skin) will be able to fight battles. Not sure at what stage tho. I’m hoping Milhouse will too…💜X
Once you reach a certain point in the event you are allowed to use old characters. (From what I have) You can use: Dr. Colossus, The Collider, Radioactive Man, Plopper, and the Collecter to fight crooks too. (There are probably others, but that’s out of what I got in the Last Superhero event. I don’t have Bartman, I’m sure he is one as well.)
I can’t even find the app in the amazon store to see if I can get the update yet!!!
It’s live for Kindle now
Google Play is LIVE
Bugs noticed so far:
1) Event menu and shortcuts not working
2) Springfield Heights icons not appearing.
Neither an issue for me. Event menu was briefly not working, but I went to visit neighbours and when I came back it was fixed.
3) The monarail is not opening! So you can’t turn in resources to go any further.
Sorry disregard my last post it’s working again!
On android in UK
This looks to be a really rough event for those who didn’t finish the frost as you simply will not have enough characters characters for. Any good system I can think of
I disagree. Thus far the only characters that appear to be of any use in this second go-around are Pie Man Homer, Clownface Krusty, and Fallout Boy. And all three of those characters are being provided for free to those who don’t have them. I don’t think new players are at any disadvantage, from what I’ve seen so far.
Up and at them!

It’s heeeeeere!! (Android)
Well I’m glad I’ve been earning and saving up doughnuts. I just bought Fruit-Bat-Man. Woo Hoo! It would also appear (if you look in the character collections- Vigilantes) that we will have the chance to get Stretch Dude, Clobber Girl, and a super hero skin for Maggie. Another Woo Hoo!
So this is What the game has become? Event driven…go from one event to the next, with very little breathing room in between. You don’t really have time in between events anymore to say, work to expand your Heights section or work with the monorail to get free donuts because your characters are tied up in events. Give us room to breathe EA.
I haven’t checked all time periods but it sorta looks like it’s normally about this long between events. About 3 weeks long. I don’t know if it was way longer in the past…
It was, we used to beg for events😂
I’m like you I would like at least a week breathing room. I’m still working on my Wild West tasks
I definitely prefer it this way, and you don’t have to participate in the events if you don’t want, you’re still free to work on the monorail or Springfield Heights.
Completely agree with you Mattr644!!!
I don’t mind the rapid fire of events right now, I just wish they’d done more for pride than rerelease the steel mill. Mqybe we’ll see a little event within an event or at least a limited time store…
Android App Store Update just arrived…
Wish the new land was in the north. They keep releasing land in the east where I don’t need it as much. Less beach, more mountains!
they’re releasing it on the eastern side because that’s where I need more of it. 😉
How could you possibly? We have an incredibly long beachfront at this point, especially with the Heights beach added. I’ve literally struggled to figure out what to do with all of it. Random stuff ends up near the beach while some things languish in storage because I want them in a forest near the mountains. I need more mountains!
for me it’s less about beach vs mountain and more about which side of my town is basically complete vs which is still undergoing development. unless we were given more than a single strip of land along the north, i’d have to do significant redesigning to add anything meaningful to that side.
besides, beachfront property is prime real estate, how can you struggle to figure out what to put there!? 😉
sent everyone on 8 hour tasks at 200 est figures
Woo hoo it’s here on android in England (and before my bedtime)
It’s not working for iPod Touch users mine keeps crashing and taking me back to the home screen *uuuuugh!!*

41 days, that’s a pretty long event. I hope there’ll be enough content to actually fill all that time.
Just as I wrote my other comment it showed up on Android.
If you don’t have land available beware… There are 3 buildings initially, two of which are rather large. I’m sure the crew here will have more details soon.
Fortunately they’ve added a whole row of new land for purchase.
