Wookiee showing up in the middle of this Stonecutter amazingness just for some 2D fun. One of the things Bunny and I love to do on this site is make art out of the random decorations EA has given us in this lovely game. In addition, I get the chance to watch and re-watch and (you get the idea) episodes of the Best. Show. Ever. and every once in a while, 2D shows up in episodes also. I thought it”d be neat to show you some 2D art I fiddled with as well as 2D images from the show. If that sounds like fun… it’s all one click away…
Welcome to another edition of From the Mouths of Addicts, where YOU get to sound off on anything and everything in the world of Tapped Out! This week’s post is all about our second Tapper of the Month for May Kays_xo!
Back on May 4th we announced the TSTO Communities of Topix, Addicts & game voted two winners Archheretic1 and Kays_xo as the Tappers of the Month during our monthly Shout Out! As part of the Tapper of the Month we interviewed both Archheretic and Kays to get a better feel for why they created their Springfields the way they did and some advice they might have for other Tappers when it comes to design. We talked with Arch a few weeks ago, you can see that post here. Now here’s part two of our conversation with our Tappers of the Month Kays_xo…
So without further ado let’s see what she had to say! Continue reading →

Back with another edition of Tapped Out on Christmas! I’ve been noticing more and more in the comments many tappers asking what’s next? You’ve completed the Gift Card prizes (although if you haven’t…don’t panic you still have plenty of time…until next Tuesday (the 14th) to be exact), won all of the wheel prizes (again if you haven’t don’t panic…or feel one of the F words…you still have plenty of time) and you have no clue what to do until the next update.
And now we’ve gotten word that the Christmas Event has been EXTENDED another week!What’s an Addicted Tapper to do?
Should you still be tapping Neighbor-eeno’s houses with Gift Cards? Should you still be dropping gift bags? Should you still be tapping your own presents? Well over the next couple of days we’re going to take a look at things you can do to prevent yourself from becoming Tapped Out on Christmas and still keep your head in the game.
Today’s tip? Part 2 (and the conclusion) of our advice on trying your hand at 2D & 3D Creations!

In case you’ve been living under a rock…or nuclear waste…for the last few weeks here at Addicts we’ve been hosting a Spooky 2D Contest where the winners receive free DONUTS (in the form of gift cards)! You can find out all of the details here And the time has come to announce the top 5 and winners of $0.99 gift cards (woohoo premium scratchers)!
First, we’d like to say thank you to EVERYONE who submitted a 2D design. Your designs were AMAZING and we know for many of you it was your first attempt at a 2D design. So great work everyone!
We’d also like to say that just because you’re not mentioned in the top 5 doesn’t mean you’re out of it completely! Don’t forget we still have Category prizes to award! The Category winners will be announced when we announce the grand prize winner on October 15th!
We also plan on having more contests in the very near future, not necessarily 2D related either, so be sure to keep checking back for more chances to win great prizes!
We had a lot of AMAZING entries and had a hard time deciding on the top 5, but the Addicts team has finally decided on the Top 5 entries and they are….. Continue reading →

It’s been just over a week now since Level 34 hit our devices. Tappers who started right away should be just about finishing up the Chalmers quest line and tappers who started the quest a little bit late might be smack dab in the middle of the Level. Either way, if you’ve been busy tapping away this week here’s your chance to catch up on what you’ve might have missed here at Addicts!
-Last weekend Wookiee helped Tappers discover the lost ride at Krustyland, Krusty’s Broken Koaster Kars. You can check out how to make Krusty’s Kars in your Krustyland here.
-This past week Wookiee and Nick took a deeper look at a couple of the new decorations level 3 brought tappers, starting with Nick’s look at the World’s Largest Zircona and it’s connection to The Simpsons. Then Wookiee took a closer look at Chalmer’s _onda, the newest car to join the Tapped Out World!
-Alissa started to break down the basics of the Conform-o-meter in your Springfield. You can find the basics here and how many points you’ll need to max out the meter here.
-EA made a couple of updates and announcements this week as well. They released a minor iOS update earlier this week and announced that all tappers should be creating a Origin ID, or risk losing your Springfield forever!
-In his “Are You Ready For Some Football” Nick made the connection between The Simpsons and football, in anticipation of the start of the NFL football season here in the US.
-Nick also took us back in time to 1999 as he uncovered the history behind Tomacco!
-Bunny Nerded out on us this week, in her Nerd Alert post, going over the finer technical details of things like Blue Stacks and Jail Breaking!
-As always there was certainly no shortage of 2D and 3D posts this week. Bunny took a look at 2D vs 3D and Wookiee announced a Wookiee’s 2D Challenge (be sure to get your designs in by Monday night!)!
It has been a week here at Addicts, full of great posts filled with humor and packed with information! Here’s to the week ahead Tappers, and here’s hoping we’ll see a Halloween Event this week!
What a week for Tapped Out! Just as many Tappers were finishing level 33, level 34 was released! With the release of levels 33 and 34 so close together (not to mention Krustyland just before level 33!) Tappers will be busy tapping away throughout the weekend.
We’ve been busy at Addicts too! And in case you missed anything from the Addicts team this past week here’s your chance to catch up! Continue reading →
