A Tale of Two Cities…. Bye Bye Tiny Springfield


And there goes tiny Springfield,  one of the tiny towns that entertained many of us, will tiny  Quahog follow, wait and see.

At the moment I’m entertaining myself playing Clash of Clans again, what about you all? What’s your game of the m9ment?

A Tale of Two Cities….


For over a decade there’s been a tale of two cities in the App Store, it started when The Simpsons: Tapped Out hit the app stores in 2012, then 2 years later Family Guy Quest For Stuff entered the fray. Sadly there was no twinning of these towns for many as they felt they had to pick a side, Springfield or Quahog, but some enjoyed both, they looked past their similarities and celebrated their differences. I was one of those, so it’s with sadness I read the pop up in my tiny Springfield on Thursday telling us the end is nigh.

FGQFS may be on life support, with the odds of survival low, but where there’s an app there’s still hope, however TSTO is at end of life care, as the game will be nuked from EA servers on 24th Jan 2025. So for those of you who enjoyed both games it’s sad news, especially for the community of players built across the addicts sites.

For those who played and stopped you’ve time to log in, grab free donuts to buy all the returning characters that are coming, and of course take a screenshot of your town as a keepsake, or to make into a tea towel or a jigsaw.  But seriously I’ll miss my tiny town of Springfield as much as I’ll miss my tiny Quahog when the day comes when EA flush all our little towns down the world’s largest toilet.

Sorry….

I’ve not been around, had lot going on that’s kept me from doing any of the things I enjoy. Also sorry to report nothing new is happening in the game, but I’ve reached out to Jam City to ask if there’s any plans to add new content or to end the game. I’ll report back when there’s anything I can share with you.

Game News – Is there a future?

Lots of questions regarding the future of the game, many believing we’ve reached the end of the road, or Spooner Street. I think giving up is understandable after 5 months of repeated events, and I know even at that they aren’t the events you’d love to have repeated. But from what I know the game is not in suspended animation like FWOT was and new content is planned, what I can’t say is when. And I know the longer it takes the more you feel like drifting away to other games. But I’m hoping we’ll see something soon. 

And as well as above, players who’ve been contacting game support are being told similar so don’t give up, yet. Below is the response a player shared with us in the comments. 

“I appreciate the time you’ve taken to contact us and provide us with your feedback about bringing back resurfaced events, and we’re grateful for your loyalty.

Please note that our development team is currently working on releasing more content so that you will be able to continue playing and enjoying the game. Please stay tuned for upcoming updates and announcements by visiting our social media sites like Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/playfamilyguy.

However, to give some time and provide events, we are bringing back old ones, so players can have the chance to unlock characters they didn’t.

Your understanding of the situation is highly appreciated! If you need additional assistance, please feel free to let me know. Thank you for playing and have a wonderful day.”

Anyway I hope that gives you some hope. Until then I’ll only be posting the links to the repeated events, but be sure once the game fires up again so will the blogging. 

Game News

Couple things to cover here…

Firstly this event runs for an extra day, I know you’d usually celebrate this extra time but not so much on a repeat event.

And secondly, yes as I said this latest event is one in a run of repeated events, I know lots of you are fed up  there has been no new content in months, hopefully this will change soon. Until then keep popping in and as soon as I have any news I’ll share it with you. 

 

Game & Event News

Few things to cover here…

Android Update Loop – This should be fixed.

IOS & Android Freezing – This also should be fixed, if your game still freezes please leave it open and after 5 minutes or so the issue should resolve.

IOS Update – This wasn’t the cause of the freezing, it’s happening on previous versions so there’s no harm in updating now.

And finally, yes the latest event is a rerun of Pizza Day, there is NO new content in either the event play or Season Pass, both give a chance to pick up things you’ve missed and complete old FaceSpace Sets. The main prize in the VIP  season pass is Witch Neil, who was also available previously. So some of us have a week off whilst others get to gather some old stuff. You’ll find links to the event overview and main Questline HERE.

 

Thank You All….

….once again for your patience these last few weeks whilst I’ve been helping my mum after her accident. In fact thank you for your patience over the last few months as things haven’t been as regular as they were due to what feels like a serious of unfortunate events. I’ll still be a bit unreliable whilst my mum recovers but I’ll post what I can, when I can.

Sorry…. Yet again!!!

I’m sorry addicts but I’m probably not  going to be able to cover the latest mini event as my mum continues to recover from her accident whilst on holiday, she’s home, having treatment and being looked after. I will put up an addicts area post where I’ll push your comments in order you can try help each other with advice. You’ll find it by clicking HERE. Thanks for all your kind messages and as the saying goes, I’ll be back.
