Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
It’s Sunday Morning in Springfield! Gather up those religions because Homer wants to sample them all! Like a religious smorgasbord…as long as Homer can still have the bacon! Of course it wouldn’t be an event in Springfield without premium items in our stores, just tempting us to spend sprinkles on them!
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 the Fr. Sean, the Sponsored Church, First Church of Lard Lad or Satan’s Anvil your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding these throwbacks to your Springfield…
Character: Fr. Sean
Donut Cost: 135 Donuts, Rebate 35 Donuts…Net 100 Donuts
Previous Post(s): Should I Buy Fr. Sean
My Opinion On It Now: Seriously one of my favorite characters. I own him, I love him. 100 donuts is a great price for Fr. Sean, since he’s usually a much higher stand alone (and was a royal PITA to get during Easter 2016). If you’re looking for a new character and you can afford to get him, buy him. Final Thought: Buy
Item: Sponsored Church (Facade for First Church of Springfield)
Donut Cost: 10 Donuts
Previous Post(s): Sponsored Church
Earns: It’s a Facade for the Church, so it doesn’t earn additional income
My Opinion On It Now: Meh. Even though it’s only 10 donuts, it’s a pass in my mind. Final Thought: Pass
Item: First Church of Lard Lad
Donut Cost: 80 Donuts
Previous Post(s): First Church of Lard Lad; Design Ideas
Earns: $135,15xp/4hrs
My Opinion On It Now: Stand alone building (not a facade), originally from Halloween 2013 (free Community Prize). Earns an ok income, but it’s not a unique building. So if you’ve really wanted this one, grab it. Otherwise pass, it’s just not worth the 80 Donuts. Final Thought: Toss Up.
Item: Satan’s Anvil
Donut Cost: 225 Donuts, 100 Donut Rebate, Net 125 donuts.
Previous Post(s): Should I Buy Satan’s Anvil
Earns: 5% on all cash and XP
My Opinion On It Now: Once again, Meh. 125 Donuts is a much better price for it than the original 225 donuts, and it’s nice that they added the bonus % (which is good incentive for those who earned it for free during the original Stonecutters to take it out of inventory)…but it’s still massive. And the 5% bonus doesn’t really cover the cost…you can buy 3 Police Cars for 120 Donuts and earn a 6% bonus from them. If it were me, I’d pass. Final Thought: Let this one go.
And there you have it my friends, the breakdown on the returning premium items to hit our stores.What are your thoughts on the Fr. Sean, Sponsored Church, First Church of Lard Lad or Satan’s Anvil?
