Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
It’s the holiday season! Here in America we’re gearing up for Thanksgiving…the one holiday that stands between us and Christmas….so naturally, the Simpsons have to celebrate! While I think it would have been awesome to get a confetti-shooting Homer balloon from last Sunday’s episode, this mini event is fun too! And as always, an all-new event (of any size) 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 CONRAD and Quinn to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this App Hacking Duo to your town…

Pros
-Helps to earn additional event currency for Thanksgiving Event (Quinn earns 15 
-CONRAD has a fantastic bonus %
-Quinn uses CONRAD for a task, they interact with each other
Cons
-Not voiced
-One-off character(s)
-CONRAD seems like he could be a little more. Perhaps a floating NPC (like Mr. Sparkley)…at least for 1 task it’d be nice to see him pop out of the screen
Final Thought
Premium or Freemium:
This is the big premium combo for this mini event. You get a new character + decoration with a nice bonus %, everything included is fair for the price. The only question you have to ask yourself is….is the character worth it to me? It’s a one-off character, not overwhelmingly memorable…so is this combo worth the 150 donuts to you? If so grab it, if not pass.
Of course, in the end, it’s your decision, we can only tell you what we would or wouldn’t do…and as I premium player I can tell you I’ve already picked her up. But whatever you decide, just make sure you make your final decision before it leaves our games for good (or for now). Also, this is one of those items that helps with the event. So if you’re picking it up grab it sooner rather than later, so it can help you the most. So if you’re planning on picking it up I’d do so by this weekend.
