Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
It’s officially 10am here on the East Coast, and that means Game of Games Week 2 is Live!
Things kick off for week 2 with some dialogue between Homer and CBG…
Homer: Comic Book Guy, I need tickets to E4. I know you must have some, because you’re so uncool.
CBG: Incredibly rude way to ask for a favor. Still, one of the nicest things anyone has said to me today.
Homer: So can you get me the tickets or not?
CBG: Perhaps. But first, you have to listen to my fresh take on every Marvel movie ever.
This is followed by a 6s task for Homer. Once completed you’ll trigger the week 2 questline, which will take you through unlocking all of the week 2 prizes, Wild Wild Quest.
Let’s take a look at what else is in store during week 2…
Here’s EA’s synopsis for Act 2/Week 2:
Homer goes to Comic Book Guy to try to find more E4 passes. Comic Book Guy says he might have some
passes, but Homer must listen to his fresh take on every Marvel movie ever before he can get them.
Homer falls asleep while Comic Book Guy goes on with some very obvious takes.Bart’s esport team The Evergreen Terrors play their first match, but Martin almost costs them the game
because he can’t focus. It turns out that Martin has gotten an intern spot with Mapple and must quit the
team. On the start of the second round of the tournament, the Evergreen Terrors meet Buck McCoy, the host of the tournament and star of the video game McTrigger: The Game 2. The team needs to find a replacement for Martin, or they won’t be able to play. Homer volunteers, but of course he’s too old to play video games. Lisa offers to join because she’s studied the game and has become an expert in the team’s strategy. Desperate not to be disqualified, Bart lets Lisa join. As they play, Bart, Milhouse, and
Nelson are killed but Lisa and Sophie are able to make a comeback and win!The Mapple team shows up with Martin to compete against the Evergreen Terrors and lose. As a result
of failure, Mapple fires Martin who tries to get back on Bart’s team. Bart tells Martin that he can’t join
because they already have a full roster of “dweebs, nerds and losers”, which of course means Lisa. At
this end of the match, the Detonator comes to after being knocked out by a stack of folding chairs and
offers to teach the kids some of his tricks from his time as an esports pro.
As I stated above, the initial quest is a 6s task for Homer. Once completed you’ll start the Wild Wild Quest questline, which is the week 2 story to follow. This is how you’ll unlock the Week 2 (Act 2) prizes…
The currency we’re working on collecting for Week 2/Act 2….
REMINDER: DO NOT FORGET TO SCROLL UP AND DOWN IN THE TASK BOXES (PICTURED ABOVE) TO BE SURE TO COMPLETE ALL TASKS FOR EACH PART.
I’ll lay out specifically what you need to do for each part in the turbo tappin’ post, but I don’t want any of you to get messed up with this. So don’t forget to SCROLL!
Here are the prizes for Part 2:
Questline, which I’ll post later, will show how each is unlocked.
Characters who can complete tasks for Act 2:
Homer
Lisa
Bart
Milhouse
Martin
Nelson
Rev. Lovejoy
CBG
Sophie Krustofsky (earns regular premium)
Blocko Angelica (Earns special premium)
SmellYaL8r (Earns Special Premium)
Note: So apparently we were given false information directly from EA. The information we received said..and I’m directly copying from the packet…
Blocko Dungeon Set & Blocko Angelica Button (Building & Character)
Date Available: 6/12 – 06/19
Cost: 250 Donuts
Notes: Earns event currency for all 4 Acts
However, at least for the first part of Act 2, she does NOT earn event currency for Act 2. I’ll keep plugging along to see if this changes, BUT if it doesn’t this is ridiculous. Don’t tell those you’re given information to that she’ll earn it for all 4 acts if she won’t. It just makes everyone involved look bad. This needs to be corrected for sure…
And, in case you’re wondering…this is not a case of misunderstanding. There’s a clear distinction in the notes for the other premium characters, that indicate they earn event currency for the specific act they’re released in. For example, here’s what the info for SmellYaL8R Says:
Conflict of Enemies Battle Arena & SmellYaL8r (Decoration & Outfit)
o Date Available: 06/19 – 06/26
o Cost: 150 Donuts
o Notes: Earns event currency for Act 2
Characters earn:
8
12
10
Act 1/Week 1 Prizes
These are STILL unlockable if you haven’t completed that prize track. You have until the event ends to unlock ALL the prizes. So keep going with Week 1 if you haven’t yet finished it.
If you need a reminder as to who can earn what with week 1 check out that rundown post here.
Premiums
Here’s what’s included today:
New stuff…
Returning
Note: I won’t be doing a SIB Returning Items post on these two because they’re both available in the Yearbook Box. They’re 30 donuts in the box, if you want them your best bet is to try to get them in the box. Even if it takes you 5 tries you’ll spend less, or about the same amount, as these cost individually and you’ll get 4 more items in the process.
Items leave stores on June 26th…
And that’s it my friends. The details of week two of the Game of Games.
