Friday Night Update: Stewie Box! Bombs Away! (Updated and Complete)

Update 8/16: Appears that the Kindle update has finally hit.  So all of our Kindle friends check your app store and finally start getting those Minions! 🙂

Hello There Clammers!

Another Friday night update is upon us!  And just like many of us predicted….we now have a Stewie Box!  For 180 Clams you can get unique prizes, Clams, Batteries & Bombs from the Stewie Box!

More details on the way my friends…

Bologna building- We’re investigating what it’s for at the moment.  My guess is it’s a mistake and wasn’t supposed to be released just yet.  It’s a texture glitch and supposed to be ham for Blobulous.  TC is working on fixing it at the moment.

As far as the bombing training…yes you can earn free clam(!) for bombing Minion Stewies in groups….Peter starts this questline.

bomber trophy

There is a new building in the game for dropping Ham for Blobulous.  For 100 Clams you can get the Guts and Glory Butcher Shop and it will always drop Ham.  2014-08-16 14.55.08

Next up Stewie Mystery Box!

2014-08-16 00.53.45

For 180 Clams you can purchase the new Robo Stewie Mystery Box..
Robo Stewie Mystery Box

 

This box runs much like the Robo Brian box..in that all the decorations and buildings are unique…no duplicates can be won in the box!   Here’s what’s inside:

Stewie Box 7 Stewie Box 6 Stewie Box 5 Stewie Box 4 Stewie Box 3 Stewie Box 2 Stewie Box 1

 

We were also given a new questline to attack minion Stewies…Bombardier Training.

This awards clams for completing various bombing tasks for clearing Stewies!

The training is 6 parts and each part awards clams.  Basically you have to bomb groups of Minion Stewies that Peter is requesting.  A the end you’ll win a Bomber Peter Gold Trophy!  Here’s the break down:

Part 1- 2 Minion Stewies with 1 Bomb Drop
Rewards 2 clams

Part 2- 3 Minion Stewies with 1 Bomb Drop
Rewards 3 Clams

Part 3- 4 Minion Stewies with 1 Bomb Drop
Rewards 4 Clams

Part 4- 6 Minion Stewies with 1 Bomb Drop
Rewards 6 Clams

Part 5- 8 Minion Stewies with 1 Bomb Drop
Rewards 8 Clams

Part 6- 10 Minion Stewies with 1 Bomb Drop
Rewards 10 Clams AND Trophy

To claim your Trophy it’ll go into your inventory.  Here’s how it’ll appear…

When the challenge is completed this will pop up:

2014-08-16 13.52.59

The Trophy will appear in your inventory, so to get to it tap in the 4 way arrows (next to the menu) and scroll through your inventory until you see it:

2014-08-16 13.53.27

Then you can just tap on it and place it in your town 🙂

2014-08-16 13.54.03

Have YOU claimed your Bombing Stewie Trophy yet?  What’s your minion record?  Will you be spending clams on the Stewie Box?  How’s your Blam! count?  Sound off in the comments below, you know we LOVE hearing from you!

  3. Awesome, I unlocked Stan Lee earlier today, and just got enough blam to unlock George Takei. I wouldn’t be surprised if they had Nathan Fillion as a prize in a mystery box for blam like they had Human Rupert during the tea party event. One has to think that with all the extra blam people are collecting it’ll be used for something other than a few more buildings.

  4. I have to say that tiny co has come a long way on this event compared to the last large one. They have made it so that everybody has a shot at George. They have given many ways to collect blam from nerds to minions to giant stewie. I’m a little over half way there with plenty of time still. This event has kept me busy that much I have to say. Looking forward to the next one.

Shortly after that you will get the pop up for the new stuff. Bombs Away questline.

  21. I thought this site was an open forum to discuss and help each other. So far it seems every post I make is taken down when there is no malicious or ill will in them. Alissa was incorrect on her reply to someone about what the Q Hotel would do after the event and I corrected it for the origional poster. I also thought it was very valid to let people know out there who don’t have the money to spend on these games that it can still be done so they would not be discouraged.

  24. Quick off topic question.

    Have you seen the background picture of the super hero costumes for Chris, Quagmire, and Peter in the character section of the shop? It’s supposed to be Al Harrington’s building , but have you noticed that the building has a second building attached to it? Does this mean that the building will change appearance in later updates, or will you be able to upgrade the buildings, or am I just over analyzing this?

    • Over-analyzing. While a character is in limbo they usually use a “place holder” image in the background until the character goes live in the game. Same went for Stewie and Carter. The hospital was their “place holder” images even though thats not where they came from. Make sense?

In my game, there are 2 yellow shirt nerds every 8 hours (at 2 o’clock & 8 o’clock a.m. or p.m.) These 2 nerds spawn randomly on the streets & since eliminating all but a small block of streets for bombing purposes they have spawned there exclusively. The blue, red & yellow nerds built into the event continue to spawn from their respective buildings on the event grounds. Just something I’ve noticed here in the past few days.

  27. So easiest way to get 15 minion stewies per bomb is this.. First make a small clearing where you place a single square of road in the middle, remove all other roads from your map..Use 3-4 bombs and the normal strategy to bomb at least 20 minions out of your quahog.. Then force close the app and wait 10 minutes.. Reopen and immediately goto the bomb crosshairs and hover over that single block of road.. About 30-45 seconds after the game loads the minions will all appear in the same spot on that road.. SHOOT immediately when you see the poof of them appearing.. Might miss a few but I have been able to get the max 15 every 10 minutes.. Once u hit them all force Close the app and repeat

        • Placing an double row of bushes where along the side they were escaping through.

        Note that the geeks still don’t respect the “well trimmed bushes” and walk straight through the same side and congregate around the road area but that isn’t an issue for me.

It seems that the minions that are already loose take a bit to recognize these changes. For example I extended a fence but they still walked right through it where the previous opening was. 5 minutes later most of them started going through the maze correctly.

However, if they are not facing the center of where the bomb is and are walking away from it- they aren’t affected – even if they are in the cloud area and covered in the pesticide!

    I’ll consistently have 12 in an area, but once the bomb drops and the smoke clears, it’ll be about 7 that actually disappear. Anyone know how to counter this?

There’s 3 weeks left in the event and only 1 character(so far) is not available, 1 costume(2 if you’re on Android), and the other 2 vehicle challenges. Everyone who’s moderately involved is going to get Takei with ease and they’re absolutely throwing clams at us(55 for the recent issue, 50 when you get all 4 cocooned celebs, 25 for the 4 costumes, and 33 for the Bombardier quest chain which is 163 clams just for freemium players thus far not to mention drops from nerds and probably a few more along the way).

    They listened to virtually every complaint from the Moon Event and have adjusted wonderfully. I have no qualms giving these guys some of my money because they’ve more than earned it.
