  1. My concession stand has been driving me crazy. Earlier on, you could make multiple swaps with different items. But for this past week, only 2 that require ice cream and an occasional 3rd that disappears after 1 trade. I have over 800 total of the treats, but because I only have 6 ice cream, I am watching the time click down and saying bye to the last 2 horsemen. Didn’t change, even with the new level up or purchases. Which the support info suggested. So it’s tough to see all the work I did and know that it’s going to amount to nothing since apparently, instead of having all the popcorn, soda, etc. I should have done nothing but ice cream.

  2. I’m just wondering what percentage of people made it to Week 6? I’m still finishing up Week 5. I’m on Part 5 of Revenge of the Scythe. I wish I could get all the decorations from the projector booth, but not gonna happen.

    I’m glad I got all the characters like Death, Death’s Dog, Death’s Mom, and Meg’s friends (except the very expensive ones in the projector). Thanks to your help I managed to get Slasher Cat, so thank you! I don’t even know how anyone would manage getting the freakin’ hard things in the projector without spending clams. I have so many materials to build weapons, so the obvious bottleneck is creating the weapons. If I could create more weapons I could get more movie reels.

    Are you going to do another poll to see if people liked this event?

  3. I play quest for stuff constanstantly! I admit fully im an addict, to the game and this site for all your wonderful and useful help. Starting the event i already had Ghostbusters cleveland and joe,pink brian, the tortured souls,jason, freddy, slutty cat meg, and connies halloween outfit. So none of that needed to be worked on. I bought micheal myers, ghostface,and super devil. All of those people to give extra help and im still on level 15. Trying to get those last collectors plates for deaths mom. Im not sure what happened or how i got so behind. I will say those film reels where tough though. Super disappointed that i wont see the end of the event even with the extension tiny co gave.( which i am greatful for 🎃)

  14. Haven’t seen a post on this yet, but some cool clam deals have come up. The 1st is buy $9.99 or more of clams to get 125 reels for free. If you take that deal, another one pops up – buy $19.99 or more of clams to get 300 reels for free. I think these are some of the better clam deals to come along in a while.

    Like

    • Here’s a screw! It says 9.99 OR MORE so if you do 19.99 the first time it gives you the 125. NOT the 300. That’s BS. All options should be made clear initially. Fighting with Tinyco over this right now. Clam buyers beware!!

      • It was made clearly, it stated like you and the previous poster stated…if you do it the first time, it gives you 125. The second time, it gives you 300. So, if you do 19.99 the first time, why would you get 300 when you’re supposed to get 125

  16. I am working on unlocking Death’s Mama, play a lot and spent $80 on this event. Thank you for showing us what we are missing out on. I enjoy this site more than the game. 🙂

  17. Bunny have you heard anything from Tinyco about any end of event mystery boxes?
    Such as in you turn in X amount of soda/popcorn/chocolate/ etc etc
    OR you turn in X amount of Pumpkins/Cannonballs/etc etc
    I know many of us are behind and so getting many of week six items are out of reach,, would be nice if there was some mystery boxes at the end of event so we can turn in items to get a few cool decos,,or even reels that would allow us to get one more week six item.
    I bought 1 premium character and spent another 600 clams buying buildings that produced materials, and I still only entered phase 6 yesterday, so I might at best be able to get 2 of the four horsemen, so I am sure many people are hoping for some type of mystery boxes that are material based, if Tinyco gives you a heads up please let us know asap.
    Thanks,, I can’t even imagine how far most people would be in any and all events without this site.
    Makes me wonder how Tinyco would be if this site didn’t exist, personally I think they would have either folded long ago, due to everyone being so frustrated with the events that would be impossible to finish, or they would have had to totally revamp how they do events in order to have the event quest lines make any kind of sense.
    What ever compensation Tinyco is giving you gals for having this site,, it is not enough, you two make this game worth playing.

  22. A lot of useless decos this event that will go into storage. Otherwise, got 7 new characters, 2 new skins and bonus clams this event. Not going to get Hookhand Albert and Maniac Pope but not a big deal for me. If only the prizes this event were pick and choose rather than in order like previous events, it would have been more enjoyable and not a grind. I didn’t spend clams on the premium characters– by choice– a first for me this event. And at this rate with the unreasonable amount of clams (3,000 clams for Hookhand Albert if I want to buy him– that’s almost $100; TinyCo can keep him and Maniac Pope :D) I decided I will go freemium from here on. Never looking back. Thanks Bunny, Alissa and other contributors for all your work on this site!

  28. Ah, so that’s what some of the last booth prizes look like.

    Just an FYI, but Death by Design triggered for me alongside part 9 of Phase 5/Revenge of the Scythe. At first I was a little bummed because I got all the items for glasses and then read the note that some decos wouldn’t become available until you started the last phase, so I figured I’d have to fight to get into Phase 6 if I wanted to get this side quest prize. However, the next time I launched the game, still in Phase 5, the Slasher Cat and the Concession billboards were added to my store for purchase. The Death sign is now looming over a corner of my town even though I’m trudging along Phase 5 still. One silver lining for those who can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel, so to speak.

  29. Is anyone else super behind? I think I’m a bit over a week behind (level 14 still). I have no idea how, since I play every day several times a day (check in whenever I get a notification). I try to finish the quests as quickly as possible. Strange how that can happen!

    • I also pretty much always open the game and reset tasks when I get a notification that something finished. Still, I wasn’t able to start phase 5 until this past Tuesday evening. So, I was five days behind this week, which is less than I was the week before. I’ve had to struggle and wait an awful lot during this event to just get enough reels. The only ‘hard’ final item in each phase that I got was phase 1. I can’t imagine that there are many people that have gotten all of those.

    • Same here. I’m also Level 14 still and just started Phase 5. I log in every day multiple times, alway clear the stuff and my queue is always full. It’s so hard getting reels, I don’t know what I am doing wrong. I guess it’s, because I refuse to spend money any longer on this game. So I do not have any premium stuff that helps me out. I think for a freemium player it became just impossible to hold on to the pace. Everything is now focused on spending money (no, I won’t spend 10€ on a character any longer 😀 ). Greedy Tiny…. 🙂
      Well, I am focusing on getting ruth and deaths mom in the last few days. More is impossible for me.

    • I just started Phase 5 early Sunday morning. Not expecting to get to phase 6, but I think I can unlock Death’s mom and that’s all I want. I got Quagmire’s and Peter’s ghostbusters outfits and finally saved up 400 clams (thanks, clam TV!) for Cleveland and his house, although Cleveland keeps turning into a werewolf, so I’m happy. I was able to save up almost enough reels during phase 4 to pick up the first four items in the projection booth for phase 5, just need a few more reels for the baselisk thing that drops super rare collector plates for Death’s mom. So I was able to start on her right away.

    • I have given up on this event. After getting Death and Lois my main goal was Death’s dog. I got enough reels, but low and behold TinyCo made it so even after doing that I had to get his unlockables using reels and hope that they drop everything I need before the end of the event. I’m so frustrated right now that I’ve called it quits. I used to like the events but it feels like ever since the Star Trek one they’ve just made them all less and less attainable without using clams.
