Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Are you ready to reach true enlightenment? Feel an inner peace you may have been missing in your life? Inner peace might be nice after the Robots tried to destroy Springfield… Get ready as Siddmartha comes to Springfield to bring us all a little calmness in the latest event to hit our pocket-sized towns…Springfield Enlightened! As always, loads of dialogue with this one, so be sure to read along to see what happens! And of course, I’ll be posting it as each week wraps up…
The Springfield Enlightened Event follows the same event structure of the Multi-Events before it. This event consists of 4 parts (or Acts), with each part lasting just over a week and taking us through a new part of the event!
For Act 4 we’re tasked with collecting Yin Yangs! Each part of the story will unlock another prize themed for the third part of the story. So let’s take a look at the details behind Act 4 and the Turbo Tappin’ Version for Buddhism Sans…

And that’s it my friends! All you need to know for the fourth, and final, Act of the Springfield Enlightened questline!
Thoughts on the questline? Prizes? Event overall so far? Sound off below, you know we love hearing from you!
In part 4, I was able to send some NPCs to do the “Send Speingfielders to Take Photos of Dalai Lama” task, is this normal? I never noticed if it was an option before – only noticed this time because I had everybody else doing other tasks. I was able to send Ralph-O-Cop, Bear Robot and Meditating Bear…
Those NPCs also sometimes can go places at the airport. Also the parrot. I usually check for them after using the unemployment office to send everyone else on tasks.
Future Marge can sometimes go if I forgot to send her on a romantic dinner date first, otherwise I let her chill in her future home worrying about her grandsons. Don’t know why she isn’t assigned by the unemployment office while future Homer (who is needed for her dinner date) is assigned.
Salt Mandala – Dumb (and Dumber if you actually waste 🍩’s obtaining more!) 🙄
Enlightenment Fountain (and 12 free 🍩’s for me) – while it’s neat that we got Decor that requires you to use Water Tiles on your Land to place it upon (is this a 1st in TSTO? I think it is since everything else you place in the Ocean!), it’s so Big (kinda too Big!) but part of that is due to me running out of space (you can solve this any day now EA!) …. I’ve kept it in my Springfield (for now!) and 12 🍩’s (whoop-dee-doo!) 🤔
I’m on 3 separate Questlines (they are all fun!) the Writers were great (now I want a ‘Buddha Homer join us so you can consume 🍩’s’ Religious Temple’! It’s not Buddhism, but it’s another fictitious Cult courtesy of the Simpsons Writers!) 😅

I’ve run into a snag at part 4. The Springfielders taking pictures of Dalai Lama aren’t registering. The counter stays at zero, no matter how many complete the task. Everything else in part 4 is completed. Any suggestions?
I figured it out. Storing the Lard Lad released the throngs of Springfielders.
Same thing happened to me. Stored the Lard Lad and they were all huddled together in a clump… Restoring Lard Lad just got them to go back inside again, so stored it again. Can’t remember what got the clump unstuck, maybe when I started giving them individual tasks. I had practically the whole town in there, though… They did eventually start to separate.
Queen Gautama – ♥️ her, she’s a fun Character, she’s voiced (and yeah she’s another Marge – lol!) 😅
Royal Tower – 💜 my Towers (they don’t take up Real Estate like a Palace, they have Character Tasks, they’re more animated when in use then a Palace – or a fictitious University in Tibet!) 👍🏻
Lisa Reaches True Enlightenment Animated Task – so Dumb and not just because of my opinion regarding having a Visual Character Task as a Prize (Homer’s is funny, but this one is just Dumb!) 🙄
That’s as far as I went on Tuesday, I’m sure to complete this by today (Wednesday). I can’t stress how more rewarding the Premium Content is (just spend the sprinkles on Dali Lama w/Jogyesa Temple, you will not regret it!)
Should be finished by Friday but no hurrying, happy with my new area, will need to create some spaces form future events
