Should I Spend Donuts On Le Krusty Burger?

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Pack your bags and prepare for an invasive screening at the airport because it’s travel time in Springfield! And while our towns are embracing their ever expanding airports, our donut bank is shrinking because there are LOADS of world items in our stores just tempting us with those sprinkles!

Of course with that limited-time label it can be tempting to buy everything that looks awesome 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 Le Krusty Burger to your Springfield?  Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this French inspired Krusty cuisine to your Springfield…

-Permanent 2hr task for Lenny and Carl to Dine at le Krustyburger (earns $110, 27xp)
-Unique looking building for Springfield

Final Thought
Premium:
I like this one. It’s a fun design, comes with a nice questline & permanent tasks for 2 characters. It’s a little on the high side (donut wise) for just a building, but it’s not unreasonable.  I say premium players, pick this one up.

Freemium:
Aside from the Chateau this is one of my favorite items from then France Act.  It is a little pricey for a Freemium player, but I do think you get a decent return for it.  If you’re thinking about grabbing another item from France (in addition to the Chateau) grab this one.

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’ve already picked it up.  I like the design & I’ll have some fun getting this one into my French town.  Just remember this is limited time, and will be leaving our stores next week.  Whatever you decide, So be sure to make your final decision before it’s gone from our games for good. (or for now..)

  1. Why is it not available if you own the waiter already?/me sad

  2. It’s back again. My question is, after the event will be able to buy the French Waiter separately again?

  3. I’m soooo sad I missed buying this, and now it’s gone!

  4. I love this building! No regrets (freemium)

  5. Le Krusty Burger & Chateau are probably the best Premiums (in my opinion) so far …. I will see what comes next in Act 2 / Japan as I’ve got enough Buildings / Décor in the France Zone 😀

  6. Can’t say why not, but I’m just not feeling this one.

  7. The French Waiter is 50 donuts by himself, which makes the building 70 donuts. I think you’d get a better deal gambling it on the mystery date box for 60 donuts.

  8. 120 donuts is a decent price for a building/character combo but, if you (could) buy them separately, you’re only saving 5 donuts. (5 donuts is 5 donuts, though.) Lots of other stuff to buy and lots more to come. I think it’s a pass for me.

      I agree, 5 donuts is 5 donuts, but its still donuts. Too bad I already own the French Waiter, its a pass for me too. Hopefully they bring some cool premium content with the Valentines update, we haven’t seen Gil yet for this update, I might give him a promotion this time. 😝

  9. To big for my liking, a shame as I do like the design and I don’t have the waiter. I guess I get to save my donuts for other things to come.

  10. Unrelated note: yes, there are bonuts. I unlocked all the prizes earlier today and have been working towards my first round of bonuts

    • Wasn’t it 5000 “points” to earn bonuts last time? It’s 7500 pins now, and that seemed high…

      • Yeah, it’ll be a lot harder to earn bonuts this time. I raked them in last time!

        • Looks like I’ll only get one round every two days, even playing pretty vigorously. I started my first round yesterday morning and I’m just a bit over halfway there so far. (I think I’m at around 4500 now.)

  11. I like this one have it my French area. Also you can stack bicycles on the one side at the rack. Seems to give it a more European flair.

  12. I’d like to get it, but it’s so big! Also, I already have the French Waiter, so I’m not sure if I want to send that much for a building (especially compared to the Valentine’s Day box). But it does look nice and it’s pretty amusing… Quelle dilemme!

    • Same here. If I didn’t have the French Waiter I would get it instantly, but 75 donuts is a bit steep. The unreleased items look amazing IMO, so I am saving up so I can get as many as possible.

  13. Great price for the waiter and the building…was the first thing I bought. I love the color scheme (it matches Moe’s brewery perfectly…I have them together in my French section with cafe tables outside Moe’s) and it goes great with the cobblestone roads.

  14. Did you do a ‘Should I Buy’ on Americatown and Kumiko? Will you? Don’t mean to pester I know this one has been a handful!

    • It’s coming 🙂 Low on my Should I Buy priority list because it’ll be around for the whole event. But it will be done 🙂 (should be this week, at some point lol)

      • I have a question earlier this morning I was collecting the pins at my neighbors when I receive a notification that I earned “SkyCredits”. Since I was not at my home town it should have been send to storage, but I check the storage box when I return home and it is not there. First, I have gone to Krustyland and back. Second, I log out and back in. Now three hours later and it is still not there. What can I do to see it or what happened to it? Can you help me!

      • Off Topic, I have an issue with not see “Skycredits”. I send you an message this morning at 9:30am which the message was erased or deleted. This morning I earned this building but it is not on my town nor is it in the storage box. Can you please help me.

        • It is NOT a building, but 750 sky credits.

        • There’s no building….the image was of a kiosk of Skycredits, and 750(?) Skycredits was the only prize.

          Also, I think Alissa did answer you earlier, unless I’m confusing you with someone else. Is it possible that your original comment just got pushed down to a previous page?

      • Just checking – thanks!

    • If you don’t already have Kumiko, it’s a no-brainer just for her. If you do, it depends on if you like the costume and/or the building. I think the building is big and ugly, and stored it as soon as I determined that she’s not linked to it (she ain’t,) but that’s fine because I only wanted the character anyway, and who knows how long it’ll be before she comes around again.

      • I like both the character and the skin, but I agree about the building…I just put it in storage yesterday, as I’d rather save the room for new event content.

  15. I didn’t notice how big it is until you pointed it out. Thanks for that.

  16. This is off topic.
    As I visited neighbors this am, I saw a lot of people that had many buildings that I don’t recognize, I think it’s a gray, several stories high, but I do know for sure it has a blue roof and red doors. It looks like people are farming these buildings.
    How did I miss this one?
    Can you tell me when it was available?

    On topic..I’ll buy this one.

  17. The description says “watch out for vandals.” Is it talking about graffiti from neighbors?

  18. Got it. Love it!
    I’m making a Paris dans mon petit Springfield. This fits perfectly there.
    Let’s hope Japan and Brazil chapters are as amazing as this first one.

  19. I’m just a little bit short of donuts, but if I have enough before it leaves the shop (in TWO days!! :O) i will definitely get it. Like rudolphovanwijk I plan to make a “Quartier Francais”, but without the Pont de Gard (I’ll get the Arc if I can afford it before it leaves the shop).

  20. I think Barney also has a 2 hour task here but I can’t be sure because I haven’t got it just yet.

  21. It was an instant buy for me. I have made a French Quarter with the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomph and the Pont de Gard. Looks very French.

  22. 4kidsandacatdog

    Yes, I’ll be getting this. I missed the French Waiter last time and this is a pretty good price.
