This will be followed by some more dialogue between Homer and Lisa, and a series of tasks for Homer..

Man’s Best Friend

Once you’ve completed these tasks you’ll see this popup:

2016-11-16-11-40-28

You’ll be able to tap Bigclaw 3 times/day for Cash, XP or Pharmaceuticals (similar to how the Leprechauns work..only they don’t drop pills, and there’s no restriction on how often you can tap the Leprechauns)

You can only do this THREE Times/Day any more and it won’t work.  After you see this popup appear you’ll also unlock Bigclaw as an NPC for your Springfield…

Part of the Mutants Character Collection..

2016-11-16-11-40-39

He’ll always roam the streets of your Springfield…whether you tap him or not.

And here’s a quick video for those not understanding how Bigclaw works once unlocked.  There’s no voice over on this one, I am at work and it’s way to cold out for me to step outside to do the voice over.  But basically this starts off from when you unlock Bigclaw, and then shows you what appears when you tap him 3 times/day…and what happens if you try to tap him after the 3 taps/day…

As you can see if you try to tap him a fourth (or fifth or sixth etc) time, he’ll just flash red and nothing else will happen.  So again, you are limited to THREE taps/day on Bigclaw. 


And that completes the details of the final Most Dangerous Game Prizes!

  1. Anyone else missing Bigclaw? I unlocked him tapped him once, he ran, I followed, tapped him again and he vaporized. He’s not been in my Springfield for two days now, also not in inventory 🙁 any idea how to get him back?

    Thanks!

  2. What happened to my homer in the bearsuit character? When I tap on homer that is no longer one of his characters?

  3. My plan was to stop playing the event after earning the BBQ pig, but in a different post Alyssa nudged me on. While I didn’t find the animations as funny, they were easy enough to earn. Now bring on the sales and Christmas!

  4. I looked up OOOLULLLU and harry potter fan fiction from two years ago came up:
    https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10892094/1/Turner-the-Dancing-Turkey
    Weird? Explanation ? 😉

  5. How do I get the robot

  6. I’m I missing something? I have Bigclaw as a NPC in my town now, but tapping on it doesn’t do anything anymore. Is that normal now?

  7. I got to this point today, but I had to make sure NOT to tap him more than once, because I have a daily task today to make pharmaceuticals, which I want to be able to dismiss for another task tomorrow. (This is about the fifth time I’ve dismissed the first-position task box! For some reason, that one just doesn’t seem to want to give me a donut task, even though I’ve gotten one in the second position almost every day! Weird…)

    But, what I thought was interesting the one time I tapped him is that, unlike the sci-fighter game, he gives you pills even when you’re already at (or, in my case, well over) the limit!

  8. *OOOLULLLU*
    Hoooray for my new resident turkey!

  9. Can we just get this over with so we can get to Christmas? Like you Alissa I LOVE Christmas 😘🎅🎄

  10. Interesting NPC, that’s for sure.

  11. I wish they made it easier to find Bigclaw (i.e., using the town census). It’s too much trouble to search my entire town to find him and play the 3 taps a day game.

    • While I don’t think it is to taxing to find Bigclaw (he is a bit on the large size), I do however agree it would be *extremely* helpful if we had a way to locate all NPCs.

    • Could always drop him in your inventory once you’ve done the requisite 3 daily taps. Then you’ll know right where to find him 😉

  12. I got this wrapped up today, it’s great that Bigclaw is an NPC.

    Now for a break till the xmas event, back to 24 hour tasks for all!

  13. Great write-up as always.

    I like Bigclaw. I’m a fan of these type of toons. I know you refer to it as an NPC, and I understand that you don’t send Bigclaw on tasks, but personally I count him as an PC, well, a special hybrid type of PC. In my mind, any character that I have to tap and earns me anything (be it cash, XP, etc.) is put in my PC list. This includes the leprechauns, the Spuckler children, Chippy, and now Bigclaw.

    To me NPC are the mobile decorations. Purely ornamental with no objective value whatsoever.

    Just an opinion anyway.

  14. I just got him two minutes ago. I was really hoping he would stay as a character/NPC. Yay!!

  15. Nice! I hope to get it 😊

  16. Thanks for the info.
