Quahog Halloween Walkthrough: Diane Simmons in…Hell Hath No Fury

Hello There Clammers!

Halloween has arrived in Quahog!  And Peter, in typical Peter fashion, has decided to tick off the dead.  In doing so Peter accidentally opens a dark portal in the Quahog cemetery and unleashes all manner of ghosts and goblins on the city…your job is to help round up these ghost, goblins and ghouls!  And while he’s at it he’s decided there weren’t enough ghostly figures wandering around Quahog that he goes and digs up Diane Simmons!

Of course once Diane is part of YOUR Tiny Quahog she’s got a bit of unfinished business to attend to!  So let’s get down to the details behind Diane’s questline and her return trip to Quahog!

Remember…Don’t Dig Up the grave (tap the hammer) until AFTER you’ve created Ghostbuster Peter.  Once you “find her” you’ll only have 5 days to unlock her or she’ll be gone forever.  So make sure you craft Ghostbuster Peter first…since he’s the key to unlocking her.

Glitch Report: Missing Terror Dogs

Update 7:05PM EDT: Just got word from TinyCo that they ARE working on this as I write this.  So hopefully it’ll be fixed soon.  However, still send in those tickets so they know exactly who is impacted.

A note on a few other glitches popping up:

Fragrance Factory- If it’s still crashing for you report it to TinyCo it has to get escalated to engineering.  It can (and will) be fixed, but is on a case by case basis.  There won’t be one massive update that fixes it.  So you MUST send in a ticket so they can fix it for you. They are working on an update to repair as many impacted as possible, just please still hang in there while they continue to focus on the issue and get it resolved. Allow them the proper time to get this done. You still need to send in a ticket as it does help a LOT with the troubleshooting process to see actual games that are experiencing it.

Facebook Accounts/Disappearing- IF you use Facebook to log on to TQFS and you’re having issues with your account disappearing and/or your friends disappearing.  Contact TinyCo.  They can fix this but you’ll need to contact them so they’ll know exactly who is impacted and they’ll be fixing these on a case by case basis as well.  So you MUST send in a ticket so they can fix it for you.

Hello There Clammers!

Many of you are reporting that after you’ve cleared a certain number of Terror Dogs no new ones are spawning for you.  The portal says they’re coming but they never appear.

If you’re experiencing this glitch contact TinyCo via your in-game messaging system (more details on how to here) and let them know you’re impacted as well.  We’ve contact them about it as well, and as soon as we have any more info on it we’ll pass it right along.

For now be sure to report it to TinyCo so they know you’re impacted, and they can see how widespread it is.

Are YOU impacted by this glitch?  Do you have any other strange glitches with this event?  Have you reported them?  Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!

Quahog Halloween Walkthrough: Week 1, I Ain’t Afraid of No Ghost

Hello There Clammers!

Halloween has arrived in Quahog!  And Peter, in typical Peter fashion, has decided to tick off the dead.  In doing so Peter accidentally opens a dark portal in the Quahog cemetery and unleashes all manner of ghosts and goblins on the city…your job is to help round up these ghost, goblins and ghouls!

Of course TinyCo has armed you with a fun questline to help rid the dead of Quahog (and in some cases raise it)!  By following along with the questline you’ll learn the ins and outs of how to succeed at Halloween, and send the dead packing!

Of course you all know we’ll be here every step of the way to give you that little extra insight and support throughout the update!  So let’s get things started with our quick walkthrough for Week 1 of Halloween…and prove “I Ain’t Afraid of No Ghost”…only big dogs 😉

Halloween 2014: A Ghostbusting Good Time!

Hello There Clammers!

The time has come and the wait is over…Halloween is here!!!!!

Family Guy Halloween Splash Screen

More details as we go through them….but for now know that Peter kicks things off…and you’ll most likely get the popup saying reload for an awesome new event..

UPDATE BUNNY 730PM EST: For iOS and Android having crash issues, try again. iOS make sure you are on iOS 6 and completely updated. Android, make sure you download the newest update from the market and running on version 1.3.2.2 for the app. These should help with the iOS blue screen and the Android neighbor visits crashing. 

UPDATE BUNNY 215PM EST: Jailhouse Meg items should stop dropping now. A patch has been pushed from TinyCo. Please try force close/restart to clear this. 

As for the issue of the Spellbook/Portal sticking and not able to clear the task, they are working on it. 

We’re working on a spell to fix the crashing bug with the Spelbook. So far, yelling out “insectum reparo!” has not worked.

ANNNNNNNND They just pushed a patch for this. Try to force close and restart to put it in effect if you don’t see it. 

 

Update 11:55am EDT: Guys we’re working to get the info as fast as possible, but with everyone hitting the servers at once we’re getting the same connection dropped screens you are.  So we as that you be patient and give us just a bit of time to try and pull as much info as we can… 🙂

Also, there seems to be a little “hiccup” when Drunk Programmer Kevin flipped the switch (I guess it wasn’t sobered up enough)…and Android users will see different color tress but nothing else.  It’s coming, just be patient it should hit shortly.

So let’s break it all down shall we?  Remember…we’ll be updating THIS post as we go through everything, so keep checking back until you see the Updated and Complete in the title..

Let’s hunt some ghosts shall we? Continue reading →

Play Store Update: Halloween Pre-Launch

Update 9 AM EDT: Update is also live on iOS now, so be sure to download it.  Any of our Kindle friends want to chime in to let us know if they have the new version too?

Also, some reports of crashing going on when installing the newest update.  This could be like Comic-Con where if you have an older device the game won’t run on it.  It’s a ton of content that requires a lot of memory and space to run…..so older devices that can’t support it will crash.

UPDATE BUNNY 330 AM EDT: From TinyCo via their FB…

Hello There Clammers!

Much like with Comic-Con we’ve gotten ourselves a little pre-launch update for Halloween.  A new splash screen and icon but that’s it so far….

Family Guy Halloween Splash Screen

If this is like Comic-Con the “switch” should be flipped once #DrunkProgrammerKevin sobers up in the morning!  (for Comic-Con it was about 7:30am).  Once we see some new content we’ll get it up for you, but for now my suggestion is get some rest….you’ll want to be well rested for Ghostbusting in the morning! 🙂

Oh and here’s a look at the new description for a look at what’s in store for us…

What are YOUR first impressions of the new splash screen?  Are you ready to defeat the scary ghouls? Sound off in the comments below, you know we LOVE hearing from you!

Hello There Clammers!

TinyCo’s been busy the last couple of days posting spoilers and hints about what’s to come for Halloween 2014….

First, they teased it on Twitter…and Bunny wrote a whole post about that and speculation for what’s to come.

Then we got a Pink Brian Sneak Peek….have you unlocked him yet?
