Christmas 2018 is Nearing the End…

Posted on January 1, 2019 by | 46 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Just a reminder that the Christmas Event Ends TOMORROW January 2nd. 

And YES, this means that ALL of the prize track questlines (main questlines for Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4) will go.  So you need to finish up and unlock ALL of the prizes before tomorrow at 10a ET. 

This means that you will want to make that final push to gather up all the things you want from the Event before it goes with the Event.

Christmas 2018 Prize Guide: Act 4, Prizes 4 and 5 Toy Fortress and Greyhound Sleigh

Posted on December 31, 2018 by | 17 comments

Ho Ho Ho Holiday Tappers!

Bust out the tinsel and be sure to hang those stockings by the chimney with care because Christmas time is in the air! That’s right my friends, Christmas (and snow, lots and lots of snow) has hit our pocket-sized towns!

This year EA is trying something different, as I’ve laid out in this post, in that Christmas 2018 consists of multi-events.  Basically, the Simpson family will host four stories to be told over the course of December with a new story releasing each week.  As we’re taken through each story a series of prizes are released to correspond with the theme of the story.  For Week 4, Act 4, we’re following a Polar Express tale, as told by Maggie (through Homer), and the prizes we unlock all fit into the visit to the North Pole theme.

So let’s take a look at the final two prizes this week, the Toy Fortress and Greyhound Sleigh…

Should I Spend Donuts On the Personalized Talking Astrolabe?

Posted on December 31, 2018 by | 14 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Grab your Santa hats and break out the tinsel because it’s Christmas time in Springfield! Yes the annual TSTO Christmas event has arrived in our pocket-sized towns, covering our usual perfect weather towns with a fresh blanket of bright, white, snow!   Of course, by now, we all know that a new event means a new excuse for EA to fill our stores with limited-time premium items to tempt us.

As we all know, that limited-time label can tempt us to grab everything in sight 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 Personalized Talking Astrolabe to your Springfield?  Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons to determine if you should add this smooth talker to your Springfield…

Christmas 2018: A Simpsons Christmas Special Act 4 is Live!

Posted on December 26, 2018 by | 19 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Happy day after Christmas!  I hope you all had a great Christmas and Santa was good to you 🙂

So, it’s officially 10am here on the East Coast which means it’s officially time to start the final week…Act 4 (week 4) of A Simpsons Christmas Special!

Now if you remember, week 3 ended with Marge daring someone else to step up and tell a story…

Christmas is Canceled Pt. 6
Auto starts

Marge: Well, what did you all think of my story?
Bart: *wakes up with a start* Is it over? Thank the Lord.
Homer: *also waking* Bart! Show some respect for your mother’s riveting tale! Great story, Marge. Very suspenseful.
Maggie: *also waking* *sucking noises*
Marge: Did anyone NOT sleep through it? Lisa?
Lisa: *snoring*
Marge: All right, fine. Who thinks they can do better? Huh? Huh?

(Please don’t ask me about this dialogue.  This dialogue is what appears when you FINISH the week 3 questline.  It does not appear when week 4 starts.  So if you finished week 3 you already saw this, if you didn’t finish week 3 you didn’t see it yet and if you just finished week 3 seconds before week 4 hit you’ll see it…)

And now, here’s the kick off dialogue you’ll see this morning (and a look at what’s in store for Act 4)…
