Hello There Clammers!
Well it looks like TinyCo had some success in getting the update out…as phase 2 is now live! In order to kick it off you must go to your tree and tap on it (it should have a bow). This will upgrade your tree to the 2nd Phase.
One thing you’ll notice is it looks like TinyCo decided to make a little winter storm hit Quahog…as the blizzard conditions have picked up & some wind is now whipping in town!
We’ll be back with more info as soon as we go through it…
More details below the fold…
Let’s start with the new stuff to buy…
Sorry guys…more images are coming. Waiting for Bunny to land safely and get home so she can help me pull them. They’ll be up either today or tomorrow…but this should give you a good starting point with info 🙂
New Buildings
Nakatomi Plaza- 250 Cookies. 4hr Build. Earns 12 Cookies and 2 HC/8hrs. You WILL be required to build this as part of the questline…so it’s up to you when you want to start it.
Quagmire’s Cabin- 500 Cookies. 8hr Build. Earns 8 Cookies and 1HC/4hrs This is also required for the questline…
Frosty-butt’s Flavored Ice- 200 Clams. Earns 10 Cookies, 2HC and ALWAYS drops Snowflakes/ 6hrs.
Hanukkah Mort’s Pharmacy- 100 Clams. Earns 10 Cookies, 2HC and ALWAYS drops 1 of the items needed for Mort/ 6hrs
New Decorations
New Mystery Box
Silver Gift Box- 75 Clams. Chance to win the following:
Big Ol’ Nutcracker- Decoration
Ice Castle- Building, Earns 1 Cookie/hr
Breakdancing Dreidel- Decoration
Ye New Christmas Shoppe- Building Earns 1 Cookie/hr
Gingerbread Mansion- Earns 23 Cookies and 18 HC/hr
New Characters
Hanukkah Mort is a festive skin for Mort. You’ll find him in Al Harrington’s to craft. Here are the details on how to get him:
You’ll need..
5 Jeweled Dreidels (Uncommon)- Get By: Make Peter Put Up the Tree OR Make Mort Swallow Jewels OR Make Stan Lee Practice Peter Parkour OR Get From Snowy McBurgertown OR Make John Roll Out OR Get from Hanukkah Mort’s Pharmacy
8 Star of David Shields (Rare)- Get By: Make Lois Train in Flame Combat OR Make Dr. Hartman Test Experimental Drugs OR Make Jerome Be a Superior Athlete OR Get From Hanukkah Mort’s Pharmacy
10 Super-Menorah (Rare)- Get By: Make Stan Keep America Safe OR Make Chris Get a Job OR Make Mort Jetpack to Safety OR Get From Hanukkah Mort’s Pharmacy
For those curious…it’ll cost around 200 Clams to instant build. Depending on how many Cookies you have.
Remember: If you unlock Hanukkah Mort before the Christmas event ends, this costume is yours to keep! If he is not completely unlocked, the costume will disappear when the event ends.
You can craft Jesus in the Workshop…BUT he’ll take a while to get. To get Jesus you’ll need:
100 Snowflakes: Get From Clearing the Viking Yeti OR Frosty-butt’s Flavored Ice.
However, there’s something cool with Jesus….Once you have Jesus, he will help you defeat Yeti. Once you level him up to Level 3, he will have a special 24-hour action, “Turn Water into Clams,” which has a chance to drop clams!
New Premium Character to Buy
John in Argyle’s Limo- 200 Clams. Limo earns 5 Cookies and 1 HC/2hrs. John can also attack the Yeti.
John’s attack level for the Yeti is a 2 or 3…higher than Lois & Mort. Great in combination with them to defeat the Yeti Quickly!
YES…he is voiced. And YES he says what you’re all hoping he says.
For those that don’t know….he’s from Die Hard. And YES it is Bruce Willis voice.
You’ll find the Yeti in your Christmas Village. To defeat the Yeti you’ll need Sexy Santa Lois, Hanukkah Mort, John or Jesus (when you get him) to do the 4-hour action “Battle the Yeti”. Each completed attack will do either low or high damage to the Yeti. The higher the level the harder he is to defeat.
You can send multiple characters to attack him at once…this defeats him faster
Each time you attack the Yeti and defeat him you’ll move him up to a new level, where he’ll change hats:
Each level of defeat the rewards increase…
As you can see not every hat is unlocked yet…more will unlock as the event progresses.
You’ll be able to see his health meter as it will float over his head….
Here’s some more Yeti FAQ, this is based off the in-game FAQ provided by TinyCo:
How Often Does the Yeti respawn?
After you defeat him he’ll respawn again in 4hrs. When he comes back he’ll be at the next level.
What’s the 24hr Timer For?
This counts down how long you have to defeat the Yeti to keep the streak going. Once you defeat him the clock will reset back to 24hrs. The streak is the only way to get him to increase his hat level…ie you earn more rewards for beating him.
If you don’t defeat him within 24hrs, he’ll escape and reset back to the first hat level…Viking.
What Are the Different Yeti Levels & How Many Health Points Does it Take to Defeat Him at Each Point?
The levels are…
And it takes:
5 HP at Viking Level to Defeat
10 HP at Cowboy Level to Defeat
18 HP at Childish Level to Defeat
New Gift Box
Snowflake Gift Box!
To open a Snowflake Gift Box you’ll need…
Get the Candy Canes from clearing Snowmen. Snowflakes can only be earned through the Yeti…or the premium version of buying Frosty-butt’s Flavored Ice.
What’s inside the Snowflake Gift Box?
We’ll have a more detailed post on this later but you can win…
Royal Flush Poker Table
Rolly Hamster
Snowy Playground
Santa’s Throne
Death Roe Caviar
Again more details on each item will be in another post…
Weekly Challenge..
For this week’s Challenge you’ll have to defeat Cowboy Yeti (the middle level) in 4 days. This should be fairly easy to achieve. Just continuously send Lois to defeat him once it triggers. Although if you have Mort it can make it go faster.
Peter triggers this one after you’ve checked out the details on the Yeti and defeated him once. It will be shortly after The Great Quahog Blizzard Pt. 2. So if you don’t want to trigger it…don’t tap on Peter after that point.
Update: Sorry guys…I couldn’t remember last night if it was after Part 2 or 3 that the challenge triggered. So I went with shortly after Part 2. Better to be safe then sorry. If it’s not triggering for you…finish part 3 and see if that helps it trigger. However, if you don’t want to trigger it…don’t tap on Peter after you get the Clams popup. (below)
What can you win this week?
Snowman Rupert!
Clam Deal!
Peter Triggers this…BEFORE the Week 2 Challenge:
And that my friends…is all the details on Phase 2 of Quahog Christmas!
What do YOU think of the Phase 2 Update? Thoughts on the Yeti? Similar to items in the past..yet completely different. What’s your take? Thoughts on Hanukkah Mort? How about the new decorations/buildings? How about John entering the game? Sound off in the comments below, you we LOVE hearing from you!

“For this week’s Challenge you’ll have to defeat Cowboy Yeti (the middle level) in 4 days. This should be fairly easy to achieve.”
That’s wrong. Don’t start that quest unless you have more than just Lois to attack the Yeti.
If you don’t have Mort or John, it is for all intents and purposes, impossible. Lois takes 4 hours to do 1 or 2 points of damage. Because it’s a 4 hour task, she can only get in 5 attacks (not 6*) within the 24 hour countdown. She would have to get maximum damage on every attack to do 10 points of damage. Getting 1 point even once means you’ve lost an entire day because you can’t reset the timer.
If you only have Lois, you also only have two tries to defeat it, because you have to defeat the Viking Yeti first, which will take at least 12 hours with just Lois, and could take up to 20 hours, meaning each attempt takes at least a day and a half. If you fail twice, the clock will run out before you can finish a third attempt, unless you have another character to help.
*Even if you are absolutely perfect at starting a new task as soon as the old one ends, the 6th task would still start just after the clock resets because of the few seconds you lose completing her task and starting it again.
LikeLike
Sorry. In the last sentence, it should say that the 6th task would END, not start, just after the timer ran out.
Also, at some point, I accidentally got the dialog from Peter to start the quest, clicked away from the dialog box instead of confirming, and I just noticed that the timer is running and is down to 3 days, 21 hours, even though I hadn’t clicked OK or done the first step of looking at the prize. -.- Awesome.
First 2 attacks by Lois on the Viking Yeti have each done 1 point.

Can dmg be carried over? Say I have 1 hp left to contend with, and John and Lois on standby… Can I deal the 1 dmg with Lois and have John wait 4 hrs to score a bonus 2-3?

Not carried over…BUT…if one has enough to defeat him, do NOT clear the others. This is what helps. Even though he is defeated and on “cool down” any OTHERS left will keep pelting him…and running down their time. So…tap only ONE at a time to clear the hits. Then they have a jump start on time for the next round. It will help it go REALLY fast. 😉

What if they hit the check before defeat?
LikeLike
Then you have to start the task all over on the countdown for the character and WAIT til the Yeti is back up again…so…waste of 4hrs. It is best if any are left chucking snowballs at him to let them continue and NOT hit their checkmarks. It is really funny watching them pummel him with snowballs while he is sitting there in the cave.

Seeing as I got up to 200 clams again, and I like to insist that Die Hard is the greatest Christmas Movie (I actually convinced my family to watch it around Christmas last year when we wanted to watch a movie, no one could agree on what “actual” Christmas movie to watch, but everyone was at least ok with watching that), I had to get John.
The fact that he will likely be a huge help in unlocking Jesus is a huge bonus too.
I think Clams are done very, very well as a premium currency. They’re not handed out so much that paying for them is a complete waste (which is good, as people need to pay for them for the game to do well), but at the same time, they’re not so scarce and premium items so common that freemium players feel like they’re only getting a fraction of the game (which I sometimes feel like in TSTO). I’ve been playing since the beginning, gotten all the event prizes (through having to check quite often), and have gotten enough clams to get all the non-event premium characters, plus Nathan Fillion, John McClane, and Stripper Bonnie’s Pole. It would have been nice to get Alien, Predator, or Jason, or Bryan Cranston, but I’m satisfied with this. And premium players could have had a bit more leeway in finishing events, even if it’s not necessary. Big marks to the game for handling of premium currency.

I’m seriously considering buying clams to get John, especially since there’s the offer to get cookies and snowflakes as well. But I’m a little confused about the offer, which states I have to buy a clam package of $9.99 or more, because there is no $9.99 package available.
The purchases on offer are:
Tank of 3,500 clams: $129.99
Drum of 1,600 clams: $64.99
Crate of 600 clams: $24.99
Bin of 275 clams: $12.99
Box of 130 clams: $6.99
Packet of 50 clams: $2.49
I live in Australia, and I was wondering if those of you in the states have a different selection to me due to the difference in currency? I’m just worried that if I buy the wrong set of clams I won’t receive the bonus.

But you should also tell him to e-mail TC (probably won’t help this time, but should help later times) as it is kind of unfair for players not in US to have to do conversions just to get a bonus. TC should say buy 275 clams and receive bonus. That way there isn’t any confusion.

Tuesday to Tuesday means I’m basically pooched not just for this week, but next week too!
Alissa, Bunny, or others please advise….
Let’s say I budget $20, 600 clams, to invest in this what is the best strategy? I suppose 200 for McClane… but is that enough with he and Lois to get the Yeti achievement by Monday? Mort may not unlock until then, or with the Pharmacy (another 100), maybe Sunday or Monday. I don’t want to spend 200 on Mort to speed him up, because the whole point is the fun of collecting the items.
If I don’t start the Yeti achievement, will it disappear next week or will it hold over? For next week’s achievement, if I only start it the following Wednesday, does it disappear the next day?
How about any storyline timed events like for Jasper? Any chance I’ll miss those or are those not based on weekly deadlines?
Next week will be a bigger problem than this week though… and overall, who knows if I can achieve the big prize (Jesus forever turning water into clams) if I lose a week of collecting!

It takes 16 Clams each hit from Lois. You CAN essentially do it with just her by speeding her up over and over. It takes at least…I want to say…5 or 6 hits on the cowboy hat to clear him.

But it can be done with just her speeding through…BUT…I needed him to trigger it. So I am not sure how to do it without unlocking him, but the more items you win the less he will cost to do so.

FYI, it appears that with the Yetti that the attack time resets each time you add another character. Although each is a four hour time, if you don’t have both start at the same time it takes 4 hours from the last character added. I put Lois on the task and then 1 hour later bought McClane and put him on the task. Now Lois is taking a total of 5 hours to complete. She has been on the task for 3-1/2 hours but is showing 1-1/2 hours remaining which is the same time remaining as McClane.

Seems like it’s going to be impossible to unlock Jesus. Since I can’t spend any real money on this game I’m still waiting on 1 more item to unlock Jasper. And that’s taking up all of Lois’ time. Once I finish that I can finally start the yeti, but she will be alone for awhile while it takes me 4-7 days to get everything for Mort’s costume.
Such a hard game to not spend money on.
