Not sure what is going on but I’m at the end of phase 4 and the spawn rates for werewolves and vampires has really slowed down. Earlier in the phase, after not playing overnight, I used to get 4-5 of each in the morning. Now I only get 2. Also I would get more during the day hardly any at all. Make it frustrating when I need a lot of sodas for reels.

It is normal they slow as they are no longer the main “Horror” and others take priority in the Phase, but they do still appear. Voiced the Reels concerns many times.

Sorry for putting this here, I didn’t see anywhere to comment at the top.
It’s only giving me the option to trade ice cream for reels, nothing else…so to get ice creams I either need Albert (which I will not be able to get), pay real money to buy clams so I can buy the one that drops 20 ice cream (which is not an option for me), or have deaths mom save jerome….but I am 6 reel away from getting the spider yet, which I have to get before deaths mom….
So I can’t have deaths mom save jerome to get ice cream, but I’m only given the option to buy reels with anything but ice cream….. are they kidding??! Lol I guess I’m just stuck then.

It may help if you take a peek at the right post with the details you are looking for. This one is only about the Questline and nothing more. You would be much better off looking at the Main Phase 5 Live Post with all the Phase 5 actual details. If you look there, you will see the there are TWO versions of Hookhand, one being an NPC. This is why I direct readers to look on our site at all the helpful info we have before making assumptions of the game mechanics. You don’t need to buy anything at all. Just get to the correct points in the Questline. 🙂

I am so far behind on the main questioner bc of the seven day timer I don’t yet want to trigger bc I still don’t have Patrick Pewterschmidt unlocked bc I haven’t even been able to place the Cyclops movie house. As soon as that gets placed, do you think I should start the 7 day timer? I would like to unlock both characters in time, but idk if it’s possible being so far behind…
If they had placed her timer AFTER the main questline asks to unlock Patrick, it would seem to make much more sense and game flow wouldn’t seem so stagnated. 😦 Guess I’m just stuck?

Finished Part 6 today and a 12-hour timer for High on Halloween started. I have no chance since the timer will end in the middle of the night (4 am). 12-hour timers are silly when you can’t really control their start. At least with 24 hours you have a better chance of waking hours to complete them. Clams are clams so I wish I had a chance at it.

I already had the cyclops house and it started for me today.
So i am not sure if that’s a trigger or not. Probably more where you are on your main quest, and i finally started getting busy with the main quest so I can get it all done in time for the new phase.
Ps i finished pt 6 and then it triggered. Waiting on a bone to be buried now and making cannons.

Anyone else feel super behind? I’m on Scream Level 11 and still trying to get Death’s Dog. I don’t have time with moving apartments to send in a comment that they should’ve planned it a little better. Death’s Dog is required to move forward, but the items needed come from the last crafted item from the Projector. Seems backward. I’m just plugging away and doing the best I can without buying items.

What do you guys do with all these half open “indoor” rooms that tinyco releases? I think they look really odd.
I have come to terms with the complete lack of consistency among the scale of objects in the game, but I’m not sure i can get used to seeing random ceiling-less rooms, and I have no idea where to put them.
LikeLike
I like them… but yes “designing” with them isn’t easy and seems a lil off at times. Still trying to figure out how to put the “indoors brought outside” look.
LikeLike
What I do is put the “indoor” look next to the building that it best fits with so that people can know what a room looks like inside that building if they don’t have that room. For example I put the padded looney room next to the Quahog Asylum.
LikeLike
I’ve done that too… it’s just limited due to you can’t change their direction easily to fit two side by side smoothly if wanted. So there are options… just minimal. I do love the look of a lot of them… just hard to figure best way to incorporate them.

Just unlocked Patrick Pewterschmidt about 15 minutes ago. I had everything but the running shoes and they weren’t dropping and ironically enough they dropped when I completed High on Halloween Pt.2 when I collected from Cyclops house. Now working on Ruth and finishing the main questline, just need 10 more reels for the Mystery Mansion and will be done with the Projection Booth for Phase 4.

Just a heads up, Bunny, in case you want to fix it…to move on to Phase 5 should be Scream Level 14, rather than the 12 you have in the post….

I just placed the Black Clam and am now waiting for the rubber bones for Death’s Dog so I can get on to level 4. Esther just needs a few things, too, and she has five days left on her counter so I won’t miss out on her like I did Patricia. I hope I don’t miss out on anything too cool in phase 5 with being behind. I had to skip the prom night skin to catch up a little and am not attempting the petergeist house, either, but since the skins don’t give you any advantage I don’t feel shafted. The trick-or-treating dog makes me giggle.
LikeLike
I wish I knew how people were able to talk about ‘saving up cannons’ etc for the storyline. To get reels I am basically saving up and then spending, so no chance to stock up. I might start Ruth’s timer once I get Roach Meg (just started on that) so that clearing clowns to get reels will also count towards the story progression. Big gamble as it will be sometime until I get the other prizes required but if I miss Ruth I suppose never mind although it would be annoying to miss the set.
Just seems a lot to do the story AND Ruth AND all the prizes AND unlock Patrick in time at the moment.

For the final part of Death At The Drive In (Part 10), you will need to clear another 2 clowns (so people may want to stock up on even more Circus Cannons as they will need 6 more) to finish this final part of phase 4.

Bunny, has there been a discussion with TinyCo about having the timer for Ruth start as part of the quest line as it relates to completing this quest line in time to launch the final week of content? I could see where this could be doable earlier in an event where you could catch up, but as the quest line for the penultimate week, it is quite problematic. You need the seventh projection booth item to collect for Ruth (a rare item at that) and the quest line has some teeth to it (a 24 hour task for death’s dog and all the barrel conversions for clowns). I am reluctant to start Ruth’s timer until I get at least halfway through the projection booth to make sure and complete her before her timer runs out. Then tackling the remainder of the quest line could be another few days to complete, putting me at potentially Friday or Saturday, meaning the final week’s content may only be in my game for five days. I know it is usually lighter than the rest of the event, but I still want a fighting chance at it.
This is not intended to be a WTD, but a strategic game play issue. Most of us have worked hard in an attempt to catch up, but this would seem to put us behind again. I messaged from my game as well, but I can’t even get that to generate an automated response so i am doubtful they are even getting it.

How do we know if TinyCo is even receiving our in-game messages? I don’t send every time you hint that we should, but I probably do it once an event when it is something about the game play that I think they haven’t thought out properly. I haven’t seen a response from them in months, even of the automated variety. Are they just shutting me out because they know I am right and don’t want to have to explain it to me?? 🙂 That’s what my mom always does to me. 😉

I did have a game issue that was unique to my game two events ago that never got resolved and I just had to go without. Never heard a word despite multiple in-game messages. Hard to know if they are getting them or not. Perhaps I will offer them a million dollars and see if they respond. Don’t worry Bunny; I’ll only give them half and give you the other half.

With such a long walk through before next movie, I started the timer for Ruth today even if I don’t have all the buildings yet I am to collect from. But if I should have waited 2 or 3 days with that, I would be way too late into the new movie with such a long list here.

Looks like I shouldn’t wait too long before I start to unlock Ruth, with all the things we need to do after her Quest for Stuff starts (Return of Death pt 4+).
