Om Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom. MMMMmmm these glowy pellets taste… glowy?
Phase 3 of the Christmas Event is now in our silly lil games and there’s lots more fun to have
Just what does the 3rd Phase have in store for us? Let’s dive on in and take a look at Quahog’s Not So Silent Night!!
EVENT ENDS WEDNESDAY JANUARY 4th 2017 @ 3PM PACIFIC
First up, the Basics
- Players need to complete Dream Again Pt. 8 to advance and be to at least Dream Level 7
- Players will need to be on the App Market Version 1.33.3 or higher in order to see the event.
- Players will need to have at LEAST District 3 Unlocked and Al’s complete.
- Players will only see this on the Mobile App Version (iOS, Google, Amazon, Facebook). NOT Windows Stand Alone
- PLAY THE GAME! Items unlock in stages and as you progress, so if you do not see an item it is most likely you have not progressed far enough in the Main Questline to unlock it. Check details below for more specifics on unlock points
- Don’t have a TON of Tasks open in your Task Menu. If you have too many open, no new ones can arrive. (Keep it under 10). If you do not see new Tasks popping up, clear out some incomplete Tasks already on your List to make room for more
Back with more in a bit…
PRESENT PLAZA GLITCH
Several of you have reached out to Me (Bunny) now in regards to trying to open one of the gifts in the Present Plaza, but then kicked out and every time after that… it tries to complete the process and kicks you out again. This loop continues.
TinyCo is looking into it to locate cause. In the meantime, feel free to send me an image of your opening Splash Screen (letters and numbers on bottom at each side) and I will forward the info to TinyCo to help you get back in your game. I MUST have that image to help or your Player ID if you have it saved elsewhere.

Is the portable pacman just a static decoration? Why worth 2 clams..
Thanks

Yes static decoration. Allows you to build your own PAC-MAN style maze if you add lots of pieces the power pellet fence. It looks good, worth the 2 clams in my opinion.

Is 80’s Brian a skin or a new character?
Cause I don’t have Brian unlocked and it seems stupid if you have to have Brian when they said you only need district 3 to keep going.

80’s Gamer Brian is a character costume/skin for Brian. I’ve asked Bunny to get clarification from TinyCo regarding needing Brian to progress, as I know newer players won’t have unlocked him yet.

Any word about this? I wonder if you get him( haven’t yet) it will auto unlock Brian.

Argh! Finally got enough stocking stuffers for Peaches yesterday… then realised I needed to spend a day levelling her to level 3 to do her task to finish phase 2… then realised it’s a 24 hour task. 2 days late starting phase 3.

I literally was about to post the same thing. Are you effin kidding me? Its a 24 hour task on top of the wait to get to level 3…. lol here i was this morning thinking I was actually going to get somewhere. this event with all the rare/extra rares drop rates and all that is just killing me. if i was smart and petty id quit and tell them where to stick it but for some reason unbeknownst to me i keep playing (for free although I have given the game tons of money in the past).
This post is in no way an angry post, more of a “cant believe it” post

I’m freemium and managed to upgrade ontime, still 4 ties away for MK but figure you really gotta plan what buildings you get and when in order to have a chance. Addicts here are invaluable for that (thanks!!!).
Here’s what I’ve seen for week 3:
Pixel wine is “extra rare” but I’m getting good drops from both parcels and “revved up” although only 1 at a time, not 2 as advertised.
Lipstick is “rare” but mort dropping well, got 4 out of 7 without the “Soda Shop”. Was going to get Soda Shop earlier but will hold back til pills are sorted.
Pixel Pills is “rare” but I’m thinking more “epic”. Got 2 from 12 so far. only got “haunted House” and saving for “Drawn-In Theatre”. Can see this one’s gonna be my problem child.
Parcel drops seem about right for “rare” but power-up pills are doing my head in. Think we’ll see some complaints about them.
Will be interesting to see what drops are like for others.

I’m opposite despite having Mort and the building I have only one Pixel Lipstick, but have 6 of the 12 Pixel pills using both buildings. Just unlocked Monkey Kong so he’s on Pixel Wine duty now. Shows you how varied our games are doesn’t it. I’m doing ok for Power Pellets thanks to the extra Ghostly Gifts PAC-MAN gets me. I think Phase 3 is a gentler week, hoping lets some players catch up a little.
LikeLike
Pellets are epic for me. The wine that’s supposed to be extra rare, was easy as heck! The rare ones are harder than the extra rare. I love the game and appreciate tinyco, but they really need to fix this stuff instead of saying all is dropping as it should. 7 times in a row, no pellets. Plus, so many times no gift box after sending characters on the task. Sometimes I wanna cry. Waaa
LikeLike
I’m getting Power Pellets not too bad but I do have PAC-MAN getting me extra ghostly gifts. However some items seem to be problematic and acting like the uncommon drop, wondering if they are that in disguise.

Well this event is turning out like every other one. Thought they would be nice r for Christmas… Stuck at the end of week 2, literally sitting and waiting for stars to drop, which haven’t in days still need 5 and about a 1000 stocking stuffers for Peaches….. AND then still have to get through her 24hr task…. Sigh….. So looks like it will be closer to week 4 before i get to start week 3. Gets boring just waiting reapeating tasks… Hopefully something changes soon! But on the plus side, without this website I would be way further behind… Thanks guys!!!

On another note, I can’t say it enough times – Addicts is just awesome and couldn’t get through the game so easy without all your advice, tips, help, etc.
Merry Xmas guys and girls! Looking forward to a hot, sunny, beach christmas here in Australia!

Peaches took forever to get, but with only a day before phase 3 dropped, I finally got her. And then the first task is the 4-hr to get DK. But the I realize that to move on to phase 3, she has to be level 3. Okay, I was a couple hours into the new phase and leveled her up, just to find out that her “move on to the next phase” mission was a 24-hr one!!! Why? I’m at 22 hours to go and very frustrated with Tiny Co on this one.
LikeLike
Stars will not drop, I missed out on monkey kong because of this. All I needed for monkey kong was for peaches to do her task. I contacted tiny co about them not dropping and they told me “The stars are dropping as intended” so i guess 2 stars over a weeks time is as intended. Im getting tired of the drop rates on this game, it takes the fun out the game.

That Froggy Freeway decoration looks awesome. Frogger was always one of my most played Atari games when I was a kid back in the 1980s. I will probably open an “Atari and NES Land” (in other words – “My Childhood Land”) in my town after this event is over. I actually would not mind too much if this event went on for a few months! 😀

Kind of disappointed Pac-Man is a premium character.. Would’ve been nice to be able to complete the ‘pixel pals’ in the face space while playing freemium.. As for Monkey Kong.. The damn (excuse my French) neckties man.. Theyre just not dropping.. I’m on every 8 hours but nothing. Meanwhile I’m on 5 pixel wine for Lois in one day.. Just odd. But we will see as time goes on! Two days left to get 6 of em.. Still a small chance 🙂
