Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
TSTO is back baby! We’re FINALLY getting on, what feels like, a somewhat normal update schedule! Praise Jebus! The theme of this multi-event? Simpson Babies. Of course, an all-new mini-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 Baby Frink and Frink’s House to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this sciency combo to your town…

Character: Baby Frink
Donut Cost: 150 Donuts
Size: 5×7
Earns: $135,15xp/4hrs

WDTCF?: “Springfield Up” S18, E13, Frink’s House is from a bunch of places but I believe Springfield Up is the connection here…

Pros
-Helps with the event, earns a special premium rate (only Act 1)
-A couple of amusing animated tasks
-House is animated when in use lights on. Satellite dish out, electricity runs through it.
-(Big) Frink has a permanent 4hr task at his house, Make a Smarter Home
-Comes with a (short) questline
Cons
-Not voiced
-Only helps with Act 1 currency
-Baby version of Frink…
Final Thought
Premium or Freemium:
I like it, it’s a good buy. Frink’s House has been something many of us have wanted for a while now, so this is a good chance to grab it with a full character no less. And 150 donuts is a fairly standard price for character/building combo these days.
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 it up (almost instantly). 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…
