Hello There Clammers!
After a long wait the update has finally hit our games!
TinyCo’s giving us a chance to make summer last a little longer with the Kool-Aid Man! OOOOOHHHH YAAAAAHHH!!!
There’s also another chance to unlock Cleveland with this update…..
More details below the fold…
Unlock the Kool-Aid Man! You have 4 days (slightly more) to collect STUFF (ingredients) to unlock the Kool-Aid Man in your Tiny Quahog! Make sure Peter is free as he kicks this off with his Vinyl Pants. Lol.
UPDATE BUNNY 9-26: Per TinyCo, questlines for this will go when it ends. So up to you on what you want to complete, just know anything left will end at 3PM PDT regardless where you are on it.
You’ll see that a large Boom Box has dropped in your town after you start the Endless Summer quests (During Part 1 that triggers Kool Aid). Just like the Jack O Lantern and Animal Crate…this can drop ANYWHERE in your town. By waters edge. By edge of land. Behind buildings. Behind decorations. ANYWHERE. So seek it out. It is not really small in size, but small enough to hide. 3×4 Plot. Once located, you CAN tap on it and move it like any other item.
The boom box is where you’ll see the collection guide/manager for Kool-Aid Man:
As you can see…here’s what’s needed to unlock him:
10 Cherries (Always)- Get from Clearing Kool-Aid Man from your Quahog (he’ll pop up every 7hrs. Tap on him to earn Cherries)
8 Ice Cubes (Always)- Get From Good Times Pier OR From Kool-Air Beach Volleyball Court
25 Pitchers (Rare)- Get From Make Peter Dance the Shipoopi OR Make Jerome Play Ball OR Make Bruce Kitten Pickin’ OR Make Lois Buy Groceries OR Make Chris Fat Kid Hula Hoop
Note: I know A LOT of you are worried about collecting 25 pitchers in time…however it’s not so bad. Jerome’s task to do this is 1hr (and Chris has a 4hr task), focus on those two…send the others (if free) but don’t stress to much about them. Focus on Jerome for the most part. I just did a little test with it and sped him up 7 times and got 5 pitchers. It is completely doable…just have to focus on the right characters. Remember it’s only Friday…you still have more than 4 days to do it. Try it over the weekend and reserve judgement until Monday night 😉
UPDATE BUNNY 9-26: Per TinyCo, the decorations linked to this will go when it ends. So make sure you have purchased what you want in your game by then so you can keep it after it ends.
Endless Summer Decorations:
Good Times Pier– $750. Earns $45,30xp/8hrs. Ice cubes will always drop from this as well.
Kool-Aid Beach Volleyball Court– 125 Clams, always drops ice cubes. Earns $45, 30xp/8hrs
Kool-Aid Ferris Wheel– 250 Clams, Earns $70, 45xp/12hrs
Cleveland has also made a return to Quahog…so if you missed out on him during The Full Moon Event now’s your chance to get him. However….it’ll cost you. Cleveland is now a premium character and will set you back 400 Clams! He comes with his house and you’ll see the He’s Bla-ack….Again: Prelude pop up in your game for the option to purchase him.
UPDATE BUNNY 9-26: Per TinyCo, Cleveland is NOT linked to this so we currently do not have an end date for his availability. My opinion on him, all I can say is Halloween is coming up and he may play a main role. So you may want to pick him up if you don’t have him.
We’re awaiting FULL confirmation from TinyCo, but for now assume that ALL Kool-Aid decorations and buildings (along with Kool-Aid man) will disappear on 9/30 at 3pm PDT. If we have any changes to that we’ll update this post. (as far as Cleveland goes, we’re waiting for confirmation on him as well)
What do YOU think of the Endless Summer update? Thoughts on the Kool-Aid man? How about Cleveland returning as a premium character? Sound off in the comments below, you know we LOVE hearing from you!
Will the kool-aid man ever come back because I couldn’t get him in the New Years boxes so will he come back because I nearly have his girlfriend in the valentines boxes

Same in NZ, had just finished everything and the boombox disappeared at 3pm Kiwi time.

So I earned kool aide man at same time I earned pink Brian. My boom box disappeared, it isn’t hiding and not in my inventory. I tap “get kool aide man” on the quest which doesn’t turn up with anything. I emailed toyco and haven’t heard anything. The only thing I can think of is whether the original time glitch has stuffed it up for me as I’m over in New Zealand and I seemed to have lost everything at 3pm tues here (730pm Monday for those in PDT). However the quest still appears on my screen.

No worries. Wide spread issues like this you may not hear back on as they correct it as a hole. Send the fix to all. (They are working on a way to bring him back).
Other issues that are isolated and impact single players one on one you usually get more of a response on.
Either way. The are working to correct what happened. 🙂

A few others are reporting the same thing. Best thing to do is contact TinyCo on it. You can also try a hard close of the app (ie shut down the app) and restart it. If that doesn’t clear it TinyCo is your best route. Fortunately, the questline is not required to unlock the Kool-Aid man

Its been a real challenge with all these added mini events in the last few days. Besides Kool Aid Man to get there’s also Pink Brian, Anime Peter and Tricia Takanawa. I just unlocked; Brian, Connie, Mermaid Peter and S&M Lois since the 2 events started. Whew!

Wow thats quite an achivement o.o whats your secret with those koolaid jugs im so unlucky with those.

I assigned everybody that can to get jugs. I was on top of Jerome giving out jugs hourly with it being hit or miss. It might seem like a waste of time giving the characters with super long tasks to get them, but it pays off in the end. I reluctantly had Bruce do the 20 hour task and luckily he’s given me a jug every time. For Lois with hers being 12 hours I have her start the task around 7-9PM, so she’s complete when I wake up in the morning. I would have had her do it 2 twice a day, but I need her to do required tasks and unlock other stuff.

I don’t think 4 days is enough for the Kool aid man. I don’t have the money to spend on clams so I can’t speed Jerome up at all. Sure his task is only a hour but it’s a rare ingredient and it doesn’t drop alot. I started as soon as it was out and I only have a few not even in double digits. If it was a week or even 5 days it wouldn’t be a problem but 4 days is really pushing it. Also would like to say that I’m focusing on getting the ingredients and not the quest.
LikeLike
Didn’t start the event until Saturday morning PST. So I’m pretty much out unless I spend clams. Wouldn’t be that against it if he were voiced, but in my opinion it’s too much for a silent character, especially one with such an iconic catch phrase. I get the whole licensing thing as it sounds like he is not voiced (from someone who rushed and unlocked), just too much $ :). Learned my lesson with Rupert. I did spend $ on comic con and loved the event.
Not trying to whine here but really sick of the events that give you very little breathing room. Would like to see events that follow the model the fabulous four vehicles that give you time based on when you trigger it, and maybe 24 hours to start it.
LikeLike
Ugh and now I see I miscalculated, thought the date was for Monday. Still not going to stress on it unless it turns out I can here that “oh yeaaaaaaaaaaah!” 🙂
Also would still like to see my idea implemented for events even though I know it wouldn’t necessarily fit a solid event time frame. It kind of would, just within a short time to activate period.
LikeLike
Its that options model. Some people love the challenge. Others don’t. So they offer a mix of BOTH to cater to several styles of players. I see complaints on every event of something someone doesn’t like. It is kinda amusing. I am lucky as I see all sides that you don’t. Those that HATE one event, love another. For instance you loved Con but hate this. Another player HATED Con but loves this.
None of us are the same or play games the same. So I like that a mix is offered. If you don’t like something, not a bad thing…just not for you. Not your cup of tea. But the next time may be just what you wanted. Make sense?
Always remember, they LOVE feedback. Feel free to let them know via your game menu. It is not “whining” if given properly, it is more constructive criticism on your view of how something can be done different. You never know, it could help enact a change or a better way. 😉
LikeLike
I don’t hate the event (actually said I would spend $ to catch up if he were voiced), I just hate the setup for the small events. If you don’t happen to open the game for a day you could possibly miss out without spending money. I love a challenge and what I love how this is more than just tapping. TC has events where you actually do stuff, like defeating mutant Stewie and King Butt. I’m sure there is also more to come. Missing the start imo is not a challenge, it’s more of an oh well too bad.
I only used the Con to show I’m not JUST b******* and moaning 🙂 Was honestly just throwing out a suggestion for the smaller events.
Keep up the good work with this blog! It has definitely helped improve the game and act as a voice from the fans.
