Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
It’s Halloween in our pocket-size Springfields! Yes that magical time of the year when our towns turn dark, our water becomes mucky and there are monsters everywhere to battle. And of course there are loads of new premium items in the store tempting us to spend sprinkles on.
Of course with that limited-time label it can be tempting to buy everything that looks as awesome as this 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 Gravedigger Billy to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this Grave Digger to your Springfield…
Decoration/Building: Cemetery Plot
Character: Gravedigger Billy
Donut Price: 100 Dounts
Earns: Nothing. No bonus %/no income (we’ll have to see if EA changes this..)
Size: 4×3
Conform-O-Meter: Vanity +150
Leaves Stores November 15th
Pros
-Comes with a questline
-Some hilarious visual tasks
-Billy be used in Giant Monster Battles
Cons
-(at the moment) The Cemetery Plot does not earn a bonus% OR generate income
-If the Plot doesn’t earn a bonus % or generate income, it’s essentially a 100 donut character purchase…over priced.
Final Thought
Premium
Out of the premium character offerings I like Grave Digger Billy the best. He’s the lowest priced one, and offers the same benefits as the others. And if EA ends up adding a bonus % or income earned to the Cemetery Plot it’ll become one of those “Yes buy it! 100 donut combos”. In my mind he’s a good premium buy.
Freemium
If you’re looking for a premium character from this event, Grave Digger Billy is your best bet. Reasonably priced and offers the same Monster Fighting benefits the other new premium characters offered. So in my mind, this is a good buy if you’re in the market for a new premium character. Especially if they go back and add a bonus % or income earned to the Cemetery Plot.
Of course in the end it’s your decision, we can only tell you what we would or wouldn’t do. And I can tell you as a premium player, I’m picking Gravedigger Billy up. But whatever you decide just remember this will be leaving our games soon, so make your final decision before it leaves our games on November 15th..
