And that’s it my friends, the details on the entire Act 4 prize track. Up next? Nothing! You’ve finished Showbiz Showdown! Now sit back and wait for something new to hit (won’t be until the 21st). Or break out the pumpkins because Halloween will be here soon!
Thoughts on act 4? Prizes? The event overall? Sound off below!
On topic… I don’t know if it’s just me, but this has been my least favorite event in quite a while. Most of the prizes seemed pretty weak to me (I guess I don’t mind a couple more studios for my studio area, but the rest….bleh.) Even the dialog seems meh, which is unusual. I suppose any event is better than no event, but I won’t be sorry to see this one go.
(And yet another mystery box I don’t have because I already have the stuff that was in it, but I’m pretty used to that, so that isn’t my major complaint. But, still, it’s not fun to win tokens for a box I don’t have and to get donuts I don’t need, instead. I’m happy for newer players, though, who get to get stuff they might have missed.)
As an old player who took a few years long break from this game and missed a lot of content, I can tell you that I don’t want anything from these mystery boxes. I have stored every item I got from this event. Still just focused on prospecting donuts to get my target items from the yearbook mystery box.
OT, but…. Yesterday and today, I have a “New”/”1” notification on my neighbors button, as if I have a friend request. But, when I go into the place where you accept friend requests, I don’t have any! Does anyone know what’s going on with that? I can’t seem to clear that notification on my main screen!
