ALERT: This is currently, as of this posting Tuesday night ET, an APP Store update only. The event is NOT live in-game. So please don’t ask why the update hasn’t started for you yet. It won’t go live in-game, even if you’ve downloaded the update, until Wednesday, August 12th at 11am ET, 1500 UTC.
Also, if you don’t see this update available in your app store try hard closing the store and reopening. Then do a search for Tapped Out. It may not appear in your “update” list right away.
Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Well, it looks like while I was busy feeding, bathing, putting my kids to bed, and handling the constant “Mommy I need to go pee!” or “Mommy I need water!” or “Mommy I’m not tired!” calls coming from a certain 4-year-olds bedroom…it seems EA has released the next update in TSTO. Right on time, for a change.
This is currently an APP STORE update, and not live in games.
So who had a Milhouse family reunion in the TSTO update pool?
The Van Houten Event will start on Wednesday August 12th and 11am ET (1500 UTC).
Here’s some quick info about the update…
-Sorry to disappoint, but there’s nothing super new about this one…as far as format is concerned. 4 Act Event. Each Act runs 9 days, for a 5-week total multi-event.
-The event will end September 16th
-A look at some of the new characters…
-Loads of new premium combos (150 donuts each) and a Gil Deal (199 donuts) with this one
-Mystery Box
-Mystery Box tokens will be on the prize track.
-2 Costumes (for Milhouse) on prize track and 2 full characters on prize track
-Loads of decorations and a couple of buildings on prize track
And I think that covers all of the burning questions. Remember, this goes live WEDNESDAY August 12th at 11am ET (1500 UTC)…so once it goes live we’ll have the full Act 1 rundown available for you.
