New Game, New Friends!

Hello There Questers!

So we’ve got a new game upon us and that means it’s time to add friends to our little Quahog World!  So here’s you’re “Add Me” thread!

So now…hit up this post with your ID’s and Add Me Requests!  Who wants to be first?

Note of caution: Currently the ONLY way to add friends in this game is via Facebook (meaning your friends have to have the game and use Facebook to login too).  We caution you to be careful how much real life information you give out.  You may want to consider making a Facebook account JUST for this game and not putting any personal information on it.  And yes, we’re not fans of the Facebook only rule right now.  Hopefully it will change soon!  You guys are on your own with how much real life information you want to share with others when it comes to adding friends…

Dear TinyCo: Game Cons

As we are getting a feel for this new lil game from TinyCo, we are also forming our own opinions of just what we really think of the Family Guy: Quest For Stuff.

NEW ASSET -- The Quest for Stuff Key Art

This post will be for all the things you think they probably could have done without in the game.  Things you would like them to change. Your not so favorite tasks, character, building, etc. All things that you just do not care for in the game. (Please keep your responses to a PG-13. Any abusive comments will not be tolerated and removed. You can place your Pro Comments on the other page instead.)

We want to know YOUR thoughts. So sound off in the comments section below. You never know when TinyCo will pop in and see what YOU are saying.

Some Tips to Get You Started

UPDATE: We’ve published the materials list (the stuff you need to collect in order to unlock characters) but it’s still from BETA testing.  So some of the items may change and how you unlock them.  But for now this should be a good starting point for everyone to see how to unlock certain characters.  You can find the “Stuff” page here

Hello There Questers! (so we’ll try this one out today, maybe we’ll do a poll later 😉 )

So the game is in fact LIVE in the app stores (iOS and Android…sorry Kindle friends!  Hopefully soon!)  and while we’re playing our game of what was in BETA/what’s in the actual game I wanted to provide you all with a few quick tips to help you get started through the first little bit of the game!

-Earn Money Faster:
During the first few parts of the game (after both Chris and Peter have reached level 2) you can earn a good amount of money by continuously making them play Fat Guy Leap Frog.  Do this BEFORE you clear Quagmire’s block, because at that point the task is only 6 seconds long.  So every 6 seconds you’ll earn 15 coins.  But after you clear Quagmire’s block the quest time will go up and it won’t be as beneficial.  So if you’re looking for a quick way to build up your cash bank while getting started, this is a good trick!

Having Trouble Getting the Game to Load:
Just like other App games we suggest trying the basic troubleshoot methods first if you can’t get it to load (or it crashes at start up).  Hard close the app and reopen it, if that doesn’t work restart your device.  Those should help trigger the game to start correctly.

Played the game in BETA?
If you played the BETA version of the game your progress will continue once you download the new game.  If you created an account you’ll need to sign into the account to get your game back, otherwise it will just appear when it’s downloaded.

Friends in Facebook:
Currently the ONLY way to add friends in this game is via Facebook (meaning your friends have to have the game and use Facebook to login too).  We’ll have a friend request page up shortly BUT we caution you to be careful how much real life information you give out.  You may want to consider making a Facebook account JUST for this game and not putting any personal information on it.  And yes, we’re not fans of the Facebook only rule right now.  Hopefully it will change soon!

-Play on Multiple Devices:
You can create an account via Facebook, Google + or just your email address.  Click the menu button (looks like 9 little boxes inside a box) and hit account info.  From there you can create an account via and of the above methods listed.  When you go to your other device just hit account info again and sign in (with the method you chose) and that should bring your town back up.

Ok, that it for now.  Should have more info up as soon as we confirm everything! In the meantime keep asking those questions, giving us feedback and anything else you can think of in the comments!  We’ll be here to help! 🙂

Quest for Stuff FAQ

NEW ASSET -- The Quest For Stuff Title Art

Hello there Clammers!  (ok sorry still working on a name with this game)

Well here we are, on the eve of the the much anticipated Family Guy Game: The Quest for Stuff released date!  Woo-hoo!  It won’t be long now and we’ll all be busy rebuilding Quahog!  So, with the release date upon us I thought now would be a good time to go over some general FAQ’s we’ve seen come up in the comments, in email & on Facebook about the game and what the expect.  So with out further ado let’s get right into it….

What Happened to Quahog?  How Did It Get Destroyed?
Well, the answer should be revealed in the first few seconds of playing the game BUT (just like the show) Peter gets into yet another fight with Ernie the Giant Chicken.  Here’s the game description from the folks at TinyCo:
“The game story: Peter and Ernie The Giant Chicken have gotten into another epic battle. As a result of their fight, Quahog has been destroyed and chaos ensued. It’s the player’s job to rebuild  the town.”

And here’s a little more from their official press release:
“FAMILY GUY: The Quest for Stuff is a free-to-play mobile game, developed by TinyCo in conjunction with Fox Digital Entertainment and Fuzzy Door. It will feature an all-new, original story influenced by the show’s 200+ episode catalogue as well as current events. The story begins as Peter and the Ernie the Giant Chicken get into another epic battle, causing a truck full of chickens to crash into the Drunken Clam and creating a city-wide fire that burns down Quahog. FAMILY GUY fanatics can join Peter as he rallies his friends and family to help rebuild the city from scratch.”

What Will Game Play Be Like?  What Can We Expect?
Here’s the game play description we’ve been given from the folks at TinyCo:
Gameplay: With the town of Quahog in ruins, you need to help Peter rally all your favorite FAMILY GUY characters (even Meg) to rebuild the town and restore order. Your actions can trigger events that affect the entire town, and even the world. Stop alien invasions, religious cults and more calamities from further destroying Quahog!
● Help Peter realize his lifelong dream of becoming a pirate
● Quagmire searches for the fabled Gold Digger Island
● Travel through the multiverse with Stewie and Brian
● Get revenge on the Giant Chicken
● Survive Quahog’s Running of the Bulls thanks to Mayor West
As you venture through Quahog, you’ll unlock bonus character outfits and interact with all your favorite characters (with some celebrity cameos). Stop waiting a whole week for new FAMILY GUY jokes – get your daily FAMILY GUY fix on your mobile device.”

I Played On BETA, Any Word If My Progress Will Carry Over?
From what we’ve seen, and been told, your progress should carry over (as long as you’ve created an account) when you download the new game and sign in.  However, nothing is official on this yet.  But it should all carry over.  If you have trouble with it contact TinyCo and see if they can help you move it…remember you have to have created an account for it.

What App Stores Will It Be Launching In?
As of right now there are only plans for Android and iOS on April 10th.  Unfortunately, we have gotten word from TinyCo that there is not yet a launch date for Kindle.

What Can We Expect From The Addicts Crew When The Game Launches? 
We’ve been hard at work over the last month + to setup pages full of resources you’ll need in the game.  However, the information we used was all based on the BETA version of the game (thanks to our friends who had access to the BETA testing for sending us screenshots!), so we won’t know what, if anything, needs to be changed until the official game launch.

So because of that once the game launches we’ll be all over it BUT the information resource pages won’t be available until we can verify that the pricing, buildings, characters etc all made it into the actual game.  So give us a little bit, once the game launches, to play the game along with you and verify that the info is accurate.  Once we can verify it we’ll connect all of the pages/posts created to the menu links at the top.

Make sense?  If not just follow us tomorrow and we’ll keep you up to date in real time 🙂

Ok Questers (better?  Or do you guys like Clammers better?) that’s it from me for now, but be sure to keep checking back at FamilyGuyAddicts for all the details of the launch!
