Family Guy Quest For Stuff Technical Help: Crashing & Lagging Game

Posted on December 1, 2016 by | 17 comments

Munch, Munch Munch!!!

Ever wonder where all your device’s memory has gone or bemoan the fact your game keeps crashing whilst playing FGQFS? If so I understand your pain and I’m here to try to prescribe a potential cure or three.

It’s no secret that FGQFS is a memory hog of a game, and since we are still seeing comments asking about crashing and memory issues I thought it was time to put all our tips on these issues into one updated post.

On both my iPhone and iPad FGQFS is the single biggest app when it comes to gb’s used, on my main device I play on, my iPad, it’s taking up a whopping 4.1gb. Thankfully my devices can cope with it but as we constantly read in the comments many of yours can’t. So read on as I walk you through the minefield of crashing and lagging and tell you how you can reduce the space the game is taking up on your device.

There’s No Place Like Quahog 101: Phase 3 – Wicked Witch

Posted on November 25, 2016 by | 9 comments

Hey there Oz Addicts

With Phase 3 underway and the Wicked Witch still defying gravity, I just wanted to give a little update regarding what that mean, green flying machine is up to now. Yes, the Wicked Witch is still with us and now has new drops which will help us to unlock Glinda and Cowardly Lion Joe.


The arrival of a new Boss would usually send a shiver down my spine but I found the Wicked Witch to be rather generous in Phase 1 & 2, maybe she’s trying mend her wicked ways to be popular.  Defeating her at 1X and 2X was achievable in phases 1 & 2 and with no increase in the materials needed to battle her in week 3, we should all rest easy knowing this is a battle we can try to win. But I would be stockpiling resources to hit her up to as high a level as possible as the sands of time are ticking down with the event ending on 29 November @ 3PM Pacific.

There’s No Place Like Quahog 101: Tornadoes

Posted on November 25, 2016 by | 4 comments

Well things in Quahog never run as expected, and that continues with the arrival of tornadoes in town a week AFTER falling houses started raining down on us.

I’ve always felt that being sucked up by a tornado and dumped in Oz would be wonderful, but knowing my luck I’d be sucked up and dumped in Cleveland instead. No offence Cleveland, you were just the first place that came to mind. But I digress, let’s get back to the matter in hand, tornadoes and what you need to clear them in Phase 3 of There’s No Place Like Quahog.

With so much going on in the first day or two of a new phase I know you all feel like you’re in the eye of a storm as a tornado of information is thrown your way, but we’re here to break it down so you can follow the yellow brick road without worrying about a tornado dropping you at the feet of a wicked witch, even if she is dead.

So let’s take a closer look at the new content released in Phase 3 of There’s No Place Like Quahog and see exactly what it takes to get these tornadoes out of our towns. Continue reading →

There’s No Place Like Quahog 101: Falling Houses

Posted on November 17, 2016 by | 34 comments

I guess it’s true what they say. It’s all wicked good fun until a falling house lands on top of you, lol.

I’ve always felt that the little flying farmhouse never got the credit it was due, I mean Dorothy took out the Wicked Witch of the West and got a fanfare, that little house took out the Wicked Witch of the East and didn’t get so much as a lick of paint. And now to make things worse TinyCo has put that little hero of a falling house on the wrong side of the event fence, as it’s the little baddie we need to clear in Phase 2 of There’s No Place Like Quahog.

Posted on November 14, 2016 by | 6 comments

Cone out, Come out wherever you are. Come on munchkins show yourselves!!!

Yes, it’s those cute little munchkins that put the merry in the merry old land of Oz. But when things turn all green and ghastly and things get tough, well the munchkins got to get tougher. And to do this they need to attend the world-renowned Munchkin Academy. Okay I may be exaggerating the merits of the Munchkin Academy, but we got to make it attractive to those munchkins or they may just head for Harvard.

So let’s take a closer look at the Munchkin Academy that was released in Week 1 of There’s No Place Like Quahog and see exactly what it does. Continue reading →

Family Guy Quest For Stuff Technical Help: Low-Memory Graphics

Posted on November 12, 2016 by | 26 comments

The usual saying is you crash and burn but when it comes to mobile apps, the saying really should be you crash and freeze. We’ve all had these issues at some point and I just wanted to quickly highlight a handy setting that might help.

Consuela Technical Support 1

In this post, we’re going to touch on something you can try when your game just doesn’t seem to be working as smoothly as it should, it’s either freezing up or kicking you out too many times.

There’s No Place Like Quahog 101 – Wicked Witch

Posted on November 11, 2016 by | 44 comments

Hello there my lovelies!!!

There’s a new boss in Quahog and believe me she’s as mean as she is green.

image

The road to the Emerald City was never going to be easy, but I think it’s going to be wicked taking on the witch who earned her broomstick the hard way. Luckily for us, she does have a weakness, one that won’t see her taking up water sports anytime soon. And it’s that weakness we’re going to use to exploit as we try to defeat her with  a combination of water balloons, spray bottles and super soakers. Darn where’s a water cannon when you need it most.

So follow, follow, follow me as I show the Wicked Witch us Addicts won’t surrender Dorothy Lois without a fight.
