Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Are you ready for some Tap Ball!? Tap Ball is the newest sensation sweeping the streets of Springfield.  A game invented by our very own Homer J Simpson!  In the Second “Act” of the Tap Ball Event (funny they’re called Acts, really they should be called Periods like Hockey.  Oh EA, I thought you knew sports 😉 ) you’ll unlock Tennis Marge, FIT Milhouse, unlock Community Challenges and continue to challenge your friends and neighbors to some friendly Tap Ball competitions!

This Event is broken up into 3 Acts (again, should be called Periods EA…), 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 Second Act you’re tasked with collecting Hats (ico_june2015_hats_01) to unlock each prize!  The First Act 2 prize awarded at 5,800 ico_june2015_hats_01 is Alley McBalls, a new bowling supply store for your Springfield!

Turbo Tappin’ Tap Ball: Act 2

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Here we are in Act 2 of Tap Ball!  Seems like just yesterday we were making our way through Act 1 collecting those foam fingers and now here we are smack dab into Act 2 and collecting hats.  Oh wait.  That was yesterday!

Anyway we’re in the middle Act of our fun little summer sporting event..and with a new Act rolled out that of course means a new questline!  The Act 2 questline is nothing like the Act 1 questline…first off it’s short.  And second it really doesn’t do much for you for game directions.  But nevertheless let’s still breakdown Turbo Tappin’ walkthrough for Act 2…tapballturbotap

UPDATE BUNNY 7/3: So we got a lil update in our games. You now can see a running total of your Amateur Bucks in the Lower Left Corner of your game along with the Hat Count. Soccer balls too.

You will also notice that your Fans in your own Springfield have some added help, Amateur Bucks. So you can now get the Hats (20) & Amateur Bucks (1) from tapping on them. WOOHOO!!

Still checking a few other games, but so far… it looks like the Neighbor Actions are 90 for Act 2. When tapping the Fans there, you will ALSO get 1 Hat & 1 Amateur Buck now. WOOHOO!!

Turbo Tappin’ Tap Ball: Act 1

Sorry this post is a little late today.  Was up late working on this and wanted to make sure I looked at it again with fresh eyes before posting.  This will breakdown a lot of the who, what, where, when & how for you guys, so be sure to read it all…

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Well like many of us predicted, EA was too quiet these last few weeks so we all thought something was going to hit!  And something sure did hit, a fun little summer sporting event…complete with Homer making up the rules!  (is there anything better than a game where Homer makes up the rules as he goes along?)

So for this first Act (kinda funny how they’re still going with Acts, something tells me they didn’t changes the coding from Terwilligers), as always, you’ll be greeted with a questline to walk you through the game basics and help you collect more currency to earn prizes!

Now, let’s take a look at the Turbo Tappin’ walkthrough for Act 1…tapballturbotap
