- You will need to be at Scream Level 8
or Higher - Play the New Event Phase to access ALL Content. With every new Event Phase there are “unlock points” for many items, so play through the Main Questline in order to see it all. I will Update Unlock points if any as I find them.

This morning I was able to craft enough reels to get the Pumpkin Pyramid and the timer for the school skin started as soon as I went into the projection booth to pay. I haven’t even completed last week’s quest line since I am still one item away from Lois yet I have a third page of craftable items. Bad enough the Lois skin was included in the quest line (they pulled the task for Death who was in the game for two weeks yet left in the very difficult Lois skin). But now I have absolutely no chance of getting the skin since I am one item and then 100 reels from Lois. This is not intended for WTD, but TinyCo sets the rules (don’t go into the projection booth until you are ready for the timer to start which triggers once you get the Lois skin) and now those rules don’t apply any more. If you are going to have third week content in my game, then give it all to me. That page of projection booth content should not have triggered until I reached Part 9 of the quest line. I was good with that and completely understanding, but now that isn’t the case any more.

The companies that make these games have to go through a LOT of legal hoops to get content they do not have any legal copyright to. That translates to a LOT of money spent to get the ability to put them in the game. Which translates into that item will most likely be negotiated to only be released as a Paid Item. Sorry, but that is the reality of the world. If you don’t own something legally, you have to pay to get rights to it and that amount transfers to your customers.

Just thought I’d share what I’ve found with trading materials for Film Reels, I traded in the 10 Chocolate for 5 reels, then it dropped to 8 for 5, then 25 Soda for 10, 39 Popcorn for 10′ then 12 choc for 5, 25 Soda and 30Popcorn for 15, 30 Soda for 10, and so in. So it appears each time you trade in some materials it give you other options, but once you’ve traded in once it’ll disappear until you’ve traded in again for just the Chocolate, so it looks like they’ve made things more interesting.

Wow. I play constantly and still on part 7 of the main quest line. Not even on Lois costume in the booth yet to even work on it.
Anyone else behind??

Double wow. I don’t even have slasher bait Lois yet and my counter is already counting down for the last building of phase two. Prom night at Buddy Cianci high.
Talk about being jipped. Isn’t that building needed to get items for Patty as well?
How is that supposed to work?
(I have not repaired her area yet because an awesome friend gave me a heads up and warned me to wait. But it seems pointless now anyway. )

The prom skin has nothing to do with Patty so you’re good.

I am. I’m up to the one after the library for Patty.

Yes I’m in the same boat. However I’m going by the fact that this phase has only been 6 days as it was a day late so after tomorrow if I’m still not past getting lois then I will start to worry

I’ve been playing for hours daily, and I’m still saving reels for Slasher Cat………

I’m still in Phase 2, almost to level 7, Part 6 of main questline (have to let Peter hum between cannonball collections). Haven’t started Patty. Have no intention of getting the junior high skin. Slowed down leveling up by storing scream point droppers but that means I’m not getting many more 3D glasses (the movie theater drops way too many scream points). Need 11 more reels for the pumpkin pyramid, the popcorn shortage slows things down (45 popcorns, 27 sodas to get 12 reels right now, but I’m 23 scream points away from level 7). The Cat is at level 5, one more to go before she can become useful for cannonballs. Death needs 4 more scythes (only Lois and Cat are working on that) and Peter’s triple murder. So you’re not really behind ….

Don’t feel bad, I don’t even have the library for Patty yet. And I am still on Part 6 of the main questline.

Francine, you arnt behind. Tinyco just didn’t plan the event properly. They released week 2 a day early and didn’t calculate how long it would take freemium based players to get lois skin. If you want someone to compare with, I’m 10 reels short on getting the witch tree (the prop before the lois skin). So basically I’m 3-4 days out from unlocking week 3 if I wait til I have lois to unlock it. It seems most players (freemium) are currently unlocking the pumpkin pyramid, the tree, or lois. At least that’s what I picked up on in the forum posts

Side Note… it was NOT a day early. It was a about 12hrs late (normally drops 6-9PM Pacific, dropped 9am next morning)

That does help some, thank you.
I am just unlocking the Plastered Witch right now.
