THOH XXVII 101: Releasing the Beasts Act 1

Posted on October 6, 2017 by | 114 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Fall has arrived and there’s a haze over our Springfield’s, that can only mean one thing….it’s Halloween in our pocket-sized towns! This year EA’s thrown a little magic into the mix, with an Angelica Button theme invading our towns.

We’ve got beasts to battle, creatures to capture, wizards to wand wave and goblin gold to gather! Quite a few alliteration altercations huh?

Yesterday, Super Safi wrote a great, detailed, post all about the Beasts.  How you capture them and enchant them.  So now you’re all wondering, “Ok I’ve got these Beasts captured and under my enchanted spell, now what?”

Well, you release them back into the wild.  Why?  Let’s take a look….

Should I Spend Donuts on Angelica Button and the Magic Academy Library?

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Fall has arrived and there’s a haze over our Springfield’s, that can only mean one thing….it’s Halloween in our pocket-sized towns! This year EA’s thrown a little magic into the mix, with an Angelica Button theme invading our towns.  An all new event means loads of new premium items in our stores just tempting us to drop those donuts while they’re hot!

Of course with that limited-time label, it can be tempting to grab everything in sight 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 Angelica Button and the Magic Academy Library to your Springfield?  Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this Wizarding Wonder to your town…

THOH XXVII 101: Locked Slots

Posted on October 6, 2017 by | 36 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Popping in with something real quick.  Seeing a lot of you saying your slots to send more wizards to fight beasts are locked.  They aren’t. A locked slot looks like this:

You see the chains on the door?  That’s LOCKED.  The other slots look like this:

See?  No chains.  And the doors are slightly (very slightly) opened.

Plus, do you see how when you assign 1 the other characters still have the blue select button lit up?

That means you can still send them to capture this beast.

So don’t worry about unlocking more doors…they’re already unlocked. Hope that clears it up for some of you that are still confused!

THOH XXVIII – Math and Tips for “Getting It All”

Posted on October 6, 2017 by | 59 comments

I hesitate to begin with the same old advice, but after a full day (and a half) of tapping, and checking my progress on the calendar, it’s the “Same “Ol Tune.”

“Log in every 4 hours if you can…and do a couple of basic things…and you will be fine.”

Let me also begin this post by stating that I don’t have EITHER of the premium “Beast Enchanter Characters,” (I currently only have Bart, Lisa, and Milhouse), and I have not yet purchased a Premium Beast (I only have the beasts Kearnymon and Lewd).  And yet…I am still “on target” according to the calendar.  Playing completely “Freemium”…I’m still on target.

How can that be???????   Hint: I am logging on every 4 hours, 4-5 times a day.  In my case, 6A, 10A ,2P, 6P and 10P. I set my phone timer. I do 1 minute’s worth of TSTO chores…and go back to my life. It’s like magic.

But, if you want to see the details of why this works…keep reading.
