Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Welcome to the wee early morning hours…at least here on the East Coast and Act 2 of the Around the World Event is upon us….so have at it my friends!
Remember…this is an automatic change in your game. Nothing to download, it should just start up in your game..
Mayor Quimby, Homer & Lisa will start this for you with dialogue. This will be followed by a 4hr task for Homer.
Act 2 runs until February 24th
Just what does Act 2 have in store for us? Let’s take a look… 
New Prize Currency for Act 2.
So the ability to earn French Pins is now gone. Your counter prize track for Act 2 has reset to zero because you have zero Japanese Pins. So forget about France, it’s time to start over in Japan!
You’ll earn Japanese Pins very similar to how you earned French Pins in Act 1….
-Flights at the Airport
-Norbert’s Around the World Tasks
-Daily Challenges (
-Chateau, if Purchased
-Tapping Tourists in Springfield, still earns 4
-Tapping Buildings in Neighbors Towns, still earns 5
-Tappinf tourists with the Osaka Flu
Tourists Changes
The Tourists have a new look…
They will still earn 4
Norbert’s Tasks
If you didn’t finish the Act 1 prizes for Norbert, it’ll require you to catch up before you see the act 2 prizes.
Act 2 Personal Prizes
Bonuts are still there after prize track is complete.
Act 1 Prizes…
If you didn’t collect them all… you can still access them by tapping on the “ACT ONE PRIZES” tab in the Personal Prizes area. As you can no longer collect items for them, your only option now is to pay donuts to outright buy each one left at the point you left off at. (Just like every other event recently.)
Act 2 Crafting
Crafting remains, as it was during Act 1, for Act 2.
You can still earn Sky Credits for crafting by tapping Tourists. You’ll also earn them when you tap buildings in your town that your neighbors have tapped, and from the prize track.
New Items in the Store..
These items leave (Mr. Sparkle & Himeji) when Act 2 ends..
And before you ask…
Here’s a list of posts we’re working on that should be up soon…
-Act 2 Calendar
-Act 2 walkthrough
-SIB for New Content
-And more!
However, keep in mind today is Sunday. So we will not have any more postings today, beyond the Open Thread. More content will come your way tomorrow, as it’s still important for us to take the day and spend time with our families.
And that my friends concludes the quick rundown of Around the World Act 2!
Remember this is just a quick rundown…as we have time to play through Act 2 ourselves we’ll break everything down in more detail. If you need help with the basics check out the Around the World Event Page in the meantime.
