New Year Quest and What’s Next

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Just popping in real quick with a little info.  As some of you noticed this morning, the main questline and ability to earn prizes from the Winter Event has left our games. (not 100% sure if we’ll get an even removal update…my thoughts are likely not until later)  However, the Gnome in Your Home game, and Mystery Box, remains.  So continue to plug away at that Gnome and earn those tickets, as that will leave our games on the 3rd.

Also, you may have noticed a little questline that started up between Homer and Grampa Simpson.  This is NOT Act 3.  This is a short 1 part questline for the New Year, with a silly animated task for Grampa.  When it’s all over, Grampa will still have the 4hr task to celebrate the New Year…

And if you don’t already have it, you’ll get the New Year’s Eve Ball as a gift from EA. (if you already have it you’ll just get a Happy New Year message)..

And that’s it for now.  The next MINI Event (Homer the Heretic, as is already teased in the game), will hit our games on the 3rd (as is indicated in the files).  This will also not be Act 3.  This is a Mini Event.  The Winter Event is over.  There will be no mystery/hidden Act 3.  This is it guys.  It’s onto the next adventure in 2017…

But stay tuned to TSTO Addicts over the next few days as we recap 2016 and prepare for 2017!  Including some fun posts coming later today…

Buy Donuts…with a Twist: New Items Offered for Spending Cash on Donuts

Update: Just got home and had a chance to pull the files.  This is a PERMANENT addition to the game (Shelbyville stuff), so it’s sticking around for awhile.  

Just saw 2 returning items in our stores as well.  The Snow Globe for 225 Donuts with a 100 Donut Rebate, net 125.  Offering 750 indicator_xmas2016_giftreceipt. And the Ice Palace with Ice Princess Martin for 120 Donuts, with a 40 Donut Rebate, net 80 Donuts. Offering 480indicator_xmas2016_giftreceipt.   Links will take you to previous SIB posts, my opinion on both remains unchanged, even with the price drop. Snow Globe is over priced and HUGE.  Ice Palace is HUGE, ok price if you’re a fan of Disney. 

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Well looks like EA found a way to get players to spend cash in the game…

When you log into your towns today you’ll see this message:

2016-12-22-19-17-42

If you go to the part of your game where you actually pay cash for donuts, you’ll see that various donut packages offer an item from Lemon of Troy when you purchase the package:

2016-12-22-19-18-05 2016-12-22-19-17-54

Looks like EA is finally giving something to players who spend cash on donuts and forcing others to pay up if they want the content.

I know this is going to tick a lot of you off, but this is EA’s way of making money since they’re giving away so many donuts.  I expect to see more things like this in the future…

Once decent thing is the characters are at the lower price points.  (Note these are US prices.  Your prices will be adjusted based on your country.  However, these are the base prices EA charges.  Any increase in pricing is because of taxes charged via Apple or Google).  Here’s a breakdown..and with a look at what might be coming next… Continue reading
