Halloween Act 3 is Live!

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Welcome to the wee early morning hours…at least here on the East Coast. But who can sleep when there are monsters to battle?!  Act 3 of the Halloween Event is upon us….so have at it my friends!

Remember…this is an automatic change in your game.  Nothing to download, it should just start up in your game..

Lisa will start this for you with dialogue between her and Mayor Quimby.  This will be followed by an 8hr task for Wiggum.  Oh, and you will have to complete the Act 2 questline (up to, and including, Lost in La Mosntra Pt. 12).  So if you didn’t complete it yet, you won’t see the new questline.

Act 3 runs until November 15th

Just what does Act 3 have in store for us?  Let’s take a look…71hnl2wgrgl

Should I Spend Donuts On the Zombie Sandwich?

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

It’s Halloween in our pocket-size Springfields!  Yes that magical time of the year when our towns turn dark, our water becomes mucky, there are monsters everywhere to battle and (as with all events) there are LOADS of items to spend those sprinkles on!

Of course with that limited-time label it can be tempting to buy everything that looks as awesome as this because it’ll be gone soon.  But don’t sweat it!  That’s where we come in to tell you what’s worth those donuts and what you might want to hold off on.

Wondering if you should add the Zombie Sandwich to your Springfield?  Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this Zombie inducing dumpster to your Springfield…

THOH Prize Guide: Act 3, Prize 3…Holiday Homer

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Well here we are, in most Tappers favorite time of the year in Springfield….Halloween!   The leaves on the tress have changed colors, the water is murky and there’s a darkness that falls over our TSTO screens.  All of these effects fit in perfectly with this year’s theme….Nightmares.

This Event is broken up into 3 Acts, with each Act containing part of the story.  To help you move along with the event you’ll get several prizes per Act.  Each prize will either be something fun for Springfield or something to help you move along in the event. For the Third, and final, Act you’re tasked with collecting Candy Apples (ico_thoh2015_candyapple_md) (yes I know they look like Caramel Apples, but the game is calling them Candy Apples) to unlock each prize!

The third Act 2 prize awarded at 2,160 ico_thoh2015_candyapple_md (or +1,620ico_thoh2015_candyapple_md from unlocking Apu’s Jeep) is Holiday Homer, an all new costume for Homer!
