Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Let the games begin! After a long hiatus, we finally have a major event in Springfield! Game of Games has arrived and it looks to be a game fest of nerdy proportions! Of course, an all-new event means all new premium content in our stores, just tempting us to drop those pink sprinkles!
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 Mr. Dirt to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this Milhouse lookalike to your town…
Character: Mr. Dirt
Donut Cost: 75 Donuts
WDTCF?: The original Simpsons Game. Mr. Dirt is the boss of the level Big Super Happy Fun Fun Game. More…
Leaves stores July 3rd, 2019
Pros

-Some funny animated tasks
-Comes with his own, albeit short, questline
-Part of a classic Simpsons Game, a chance to bring a piece of Simpsons history to Springfield…
-FULL Character
-Reasonably priced.
Cons
-Looks like Milhouse
-Not voiced
Final Thought
This is one character I think you should buy. Reasonably priced, full character, helps with the event, and he’s kinda funny. Plus, it’s a chance to own a piece of Simpsons gaming history…this one is a good buy IMO.
Of course, in the end, it’s your decision, we can only tell you what we would or wouldn’t do…and as a premium player, I already picked this up. But whatever you decide, just make sure you make your final decision before it leaves our games for good (or for now).
Here’s a look at his tasks…

What are your thoughts on Mr. Dirt? Will you be spending the donuts to bring it to your Springfield? Did you already? Why or why not? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
I not only love the Simpsons, I love Katamari, so this was an instant buy 😃
For sure the best buy of the event so far.
I tend to buy anything that is an actual character. I find they provide a goo return in terms of XP, which means more donuts.
I love Mr Dirt!😍 He looks like a parade character…I’ll get a chuckle every time I see him. And for only 75 donuts, what more could you ask?
Got the first prize for week three and added it to E4 Expo Center, the decorations are starting fill it out nicely. 😁

Agreed on all counts. If anyone has ever been to one of these events in real life, there is Swag everywhere!
great idea on layout!
(i.e. stealin’ it!) XD
Bought immediately. No second thought needed.
Bought.. need something to spend donuts on. 🙂
Con – Looks like Milhouse.
This literally made me laugh out loud at work !!!
Is he large like in the game or kid size?
Large
I would put the “looks like Milhouse.” as a Pro. Its so ridiculous looking; I would have passed, had it not looked like Milhouse.
Katamari Damacy!
This
Yes!!! I love Katamari Damacy!!! Does this character roll anything as an animated task? I would buy immediately if he did!!!
Wow – thEAy should have thought of that!
Can you imagine him on the perpetual task of rolling a ball all over the game? Man, that would have been amazing!
Sight
I was going to say that, too!
Once again, stupidest looking character they ever offered…
And once again……. it is a legacy character from the Simpsons video game…not new for this game. So, chillax on poor blockhead Milhouse. I mean, how would you feel if you had blockhead ears…and people made fun of you?
But, let’s all agree…Mr. Dirt must be one of the LEAST played cosplay characters at any ComiCon.
The best part of having Mr. Dirt from the Simpsons video game is that Mr. Sparkle makes a cameo in the same part of the game. Sadly we don’t have a joint task of Mr. Sparkle chasing Mr. Dirt around or that Mr. Sparkle being offered with Mr. Dirt.
Perhaps this will change that. Someone should absolutely cosplay a Mr. Sparkle vs Mr. Dirt showdown. Then film it and share it with us.
Con – looks like Milhouse
Haha. Ouch
Well in the sense that, now you have 2 Milhouses walking around…
I purchased him immediately. Price was good and I am a huge Katamari fan.
Thanks for this SIB Alissa! This was an instant buy, 75D are reasonable (see Shiva, Christmas ’17). I’m using the low-currency-need times to progress in Mr. Dirt’s questline and Week 2 Outro quest (Bart & Milhouse) 😀
