WDTCF- Happy Little Elves

Boy, our Springfield is stuffed full of ALL sorts of odd animals and creatures, huh? We have Dolphins, puking frog thing, zombie pets, and then some.

Ever since I started this game, there is one thing I just couldn’t understand that HADN’T been put in the game yet. I mean it was the entire reason Homer allowed the plant to blow up in the first place. IT STARTED IT ALL!!

What the heck is Bunny rambling on about? The Happy Little Elves of course! Homer was so addicted to the game, he forgot to do his actual job and blew up Springfield. Sound familiar to any of you? Are YOU on your game or this blog right now at work? Yup, thought so. 😛

Grrrrrrrumple

So here we are on the Eve of Christmas and EA has decided to bring to us yet ANOTHER character for our game.

For some of us “older” crowd, Christmas consisted of claymated cartoons and possessed looking characters in our kiddie Christmas Specials. Dropped into the mix of Reindeers, Clause, and Snowman was a character out of a book by Dr. Suess. The Grinch.

Grumple

Now The Simpsons trying to keep their own way of doing things came up with their own take on this grumpy green character. The Grumble. Now he is available for purchase in your game for the price tag of 120 Donuts.

Stay tuned for the Dialog and details coming soon! 🙂
