2016 Halloween Event has Arrived! (Updated and Complete)

Advertisements

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

It’s Alive!  It’s Alive!  Halloween is here!!

Currently it’s available on iOS only…Android and Kindle you know the drill, it’ll be out for you shortly so sit tight.

It will autostart for you with dialogue from Lisa and Homer, followed by 6s tasks for each.  This will be followed by a series of 6s tasks for Lisa and  a 4hr task (after those) for Homer.

As always we’ll be back with more in a bit…

Remember…this is a APP STORE UPDATE.  So you will need to download the latest version of TSTO from your App Store BEFORE you can see this.  You’ll know you’re on the latest version because the splash screen and icon will change.  I know inevitably there will be people saying the game didn’t tell them to update, so they’re behind.  CHECK YOUR APP STORE!

Event ends November 15th…and yes this one is broken up into Acts.. (and for those curious, when it ends it’ll likely be followed by a mini Thanksgiving Event, probably Black Friday deals and then Christmas…busy event time of the year!)

So a few things to note right off the bat…first

Act 1 Ends October 18th at 0800 GMT

Second…after you’ve completed Mad Monsters: Furry Road Pt. 2 you’ll unlock (for free) Filmmaker Lisa

This will be followed by the MAG Office, once you’ve completed Mad Monsters: Furry Road Pt. 3

Mag Office- Free, 10×7 in size.

After you complete Mad Monsters: Furry Road Pt. 4 you’ll trigger the rest of the event to unlock…

Now..much like the Sci-Fi Event (and the Casino Event)…you’ll need to level up in crafting in order to unlock more stuff.  The good news is, like with the Sci-Fi Event…crafting items will help you level up!

We’ll have a full breakdown of crafting in another post, as we always do, but for now DO NOT LEVEL UP CRAFTING UNLESS YOU ARE CRAFTING ITEMS.  The only way you should be leveling up is via crafting the available items.  DO NOT PUSH THE GREEN BUTTON…unless of course there are no items you want to craft available.

Giant Monsters

Another quest you’ll unlock after you’ve finished part 5 of Mad Monsters is the Lost in La Monstra questline.  This is what unlocks your ability to battle Giant Monsters…

This will run similar to Felon battles during Superheroes 2, and yes we’ll have a full breakdown…

You Select a character to battle one of the giant Monsters….only this time the battles are 4hrs long!

BUT you can battle three at a time, with various characters!

We’ll break this down in another post…

Note it is through MAG points that you unlock more Trick or Treating Jobs
