Should I Spend Donuts on the Returning Orb of Isis or the Sphinx?

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Halloween is back in Springfield!  Yes, the water is murky, the screen is slightly darker, monsters and minions are roaming our towns…is there anything better than Halloween in our pocket-sized towns?  Of course loads of returning content! Lots of items to drop those sprinkles on…

As we all know, that limited-time label can tempt us 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 the Returning Orb of Isis or the Sphinx to your Springfield?  Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding these throwbacks to your town…

  1. Would like a sphinx for my new Egyptian area but not for 60 sprinkles. And would be more interested in the vast Bart sphinx anyway. Passed on both items.

  2. Any news to possible premimum items we should stock up on now while we can craft them for free?

    And rest in pease stan lee, he will forever be in our hearts and minds

  3. The orb is worth it because of its place in a great episode. But I get why others don’t agree. For me it’s a must.

  4. I wouldn’t have any Noob spend sprinkles for these, unless they were cheaply bundled (ie 10 donuts for both together?) …. these were ‘meh’ Prizes (I remember the Craftable Sphinx was better in detail and size) – c’mon EA! 🤷🏼‍♂️

    • But the orb is from such a sweet episode lol….
      Agreed with the other thing though. Free is a great price…..

  5. I’ve purchased almost everything offered in this event, but I am totally passing on these 2 items. For some reason I have almost no interest at all in them, especially in light of the information presented in this SIB post.

  6. I’m glad I got the Orb during an event cause for free…I love it and it’s little song.

  7. Hard passes indeed! Luckily I was there for Time Travelling Toaster Act II 😂

  8. I’m surprised the spooky forest trees did not return as a craft item or a premium purchase.
