Hello clammers! I Hope you’ve come across as many golden clams as I did since the game launched a few weeks ago. I’m genuinely surprised by how often I find them and THAT is my first favorite thing about this game. In today’s post, I’m gonna talk about my favorite things in Quest For Stuff. I know it’s been 3 weeks since my initial post on this thread and I must apologize for my lack of presence. Between trying to fully understand the game and it’s mechanics, I got a very bad flu that seemed to last forever. But I’m all better now and I wish I would have had a chance to try the game in its beta version to give me a head start. I had never played this type of game before and it took me a while to get what the goal was and to establish a strategy for my gameplay.

My next favorite thing is the originality of certain tasks. I really like the variety and enjoy seeing my characters in action. I appreciate the fact that most tasks are outdoors and visible. My top 3:

My First Impressions On The Game

Posted on April 11, 2014 | 20 comments

I’d like to start by stating that there will be numerous comparisons to The Simpsons Tapped Out in this post. Both TV shows have been compared quite often and when this game was announced, it was presented to us as ”another tapped out game”. Although the names are different, there are stricking similarities that can’t go unnoticed. Keep in mind that the goal here is not to decide which game is the best but to give the readers a reference in explanations. Most of you came here from TSTO blogs and have played Simpsons Tapped Out and by exposing the similarities and differences between the 2 games, it will give you a better idea of what I’m talking about. Also remember that this is just about my opinion after getting the first feel of Quest For Stuff as I may discover new things along the way that will change my mind (for better or for worse, who knows!) about certain aspects. Most of all, I hope you’re all as thrilled as I am to start a new game!

I love how they start off by saying the show is cancelled again. For those of you who may not know this, Family Guy was cancelled after its 3rd season in 2003. Because of the DVDs high sales, great ratings on the reruns airing on the Cartoon Network and Comedy Central, fans wrote in a petition to Fox whom ultimately decided to bring back the show permantly in 2005. It’s funny how the characters are seemingly aware that their lives are on television; and mad about the fact that they soon won’t be anymore. The fight with the giant chicken was priceless. It’s a classic from the show that will make all fans smile. I think they couldn’t have made a better video intro for the game.
