Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Around the World may be over, but the tourists are hanging around Springfield! Whether it’s by choice is a whole different story. Yes, that’s right EA’s finally fixed the bug and the tourists are back in our stores for premium purchase
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 these three tourists to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this triple threat to tourism to your Springfield…
Characters: Tourists (Man, Woman & child)
Donut Price: 60 Donuts
Leaves Stores March 28th
Pros
-Three full characters for Springfield
-They have tasks that will put them in their various “outfits” from Around the World (France, Japan, Brazil)
-Great price for 3 characters
Cons
-I’m sure it will be fixed, but at the moment only the male and female tourist earn at a premium rate…the kid earns at the regular rate
-Not really canon characters.
Premium or Freemium:
Honestly, it’s hard not to like this bundle. 3 full characters for 60 donuts that’s a great deal. Assuming EA fixes the kid’s task payout it’ll be even better, 3 premium characters, a really great buy!
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 grabbed them. Just remember this is limited time, and will be leaving our stores soon. Whatever you decide, So be sure to make your final decision before it’s gone from our games for good. (or for now..)
Here’s a look at their tasks.. (each character has the same tasks)
Tourist Permanent Tasks:
| Task | Length | Earns | Location |
| Shop at Kwik E Mart | 1hr | $105, 26xp | Kwik-E-Mart |
| Staycate in France | 4hrs | $260. 70xp | Outside/Visual |
| Staycate in Japan | 8hrs | $420, 105xp | Outside/Visual |
| Staycate in Brazil | 12hrs | $600, 150xp | Outside/Visual |
| Stay in Budget Accomodations | 24hrs | $1,000, 225xp | Sleep Eazy Motel/Brown House |
Remember, in what I hope is a temporary glitch, the kid doesn’t earn at a premium rate. Just the adults.
