  1. I was a level 41. After linking it to my Facebook account it crashed. When I got it to work again it had completely reset and took me back to the beginning of the game.

  2. I purchased the upside-down face boy and finished a collection of premium characters, got my reward (something like 35 clams) but then a couple days later they reorganized the facespace page and it was again not completed. The game continued to recall all of my earned clams… Has this happened to anyone else? Any suggestions other than emailing the game makers? Emailing these game makers never has proven fruitful.

    • That is very odd. TinyCo is usually really good about that stuff. Just make sure you go the BEST route of contact. ONLY through the game itself (Menu, Help, Contact) or ONLY through the help email … help@tinyco.com

      • Well thanks for your suggestion and quick response. I guess I will give it a shot. I have never dealt with TinyCo before, my comment was more general about these freemium games, hopefully they will be better than the other customer service reps.

  8. Hi, I just got a new phone and am trying to play my game again on the new phone and it won’t let me, it keeps saying I need to sign in as a user with a password or as a guest. Problem is that I never signed in that way on my old phone, just thru the gamecenter.

    QUESTION: IF I set up a sign in on my old phone now, will the new phone allow me to pick up where I left off on my game? I have taken a pic of the long number on my opening page so hopefully I will still be able to restore my game on my new phone.
    Please help! Thanks.

    • The Player ID you actually want for your game is in Menu, Account, lower right corner.

      As far as your other device, in the same area it should tell you just how you were logged in on that same page. Email address or Facebook name. If you never linked it to anything, you may want to while you are in there to save your progress.

    • Go to Menu, Account, and see if you are already signed in. If you are, you will see it say your email or Facebook ID you logged in with. If not, take a screenshot or write down the LOOOOOOONG set of numbers in the lower right corner while there in the account info. THAT is your Player ID and is what will help you if you ever lose your game.

      Either way, note that Player ID and keep it handy.

  25. Evening clammers!
    I downloaded this game half way through the holloween event and have been addicted ever since. What a great and fun game, actually caught myself laughing out loud a couple of times and I love the reminders from old episodes. I forgot bitch stewie excisted until last week.
    My only problem is i wish i knew the game existed when it started, feel like ive missed the oportunity to get ‘stuff’ from the comic con event and get the coolade guy! Do we know if events will repeat again, will it be a different event next halloween (i didnt get pink brian)
    And finally thanks for a great website! Its been very usefull and amussing. Good job bunny

  41. Hey ladies! Looooooooong time lurker. Love this website. I use it ALL the time.

    One thing I have a question on isn’t really about the game itself but the devices it can be played on. I’m looking into getting a tablet, something I don’t currently have. The one I’m looking at I cannot check out in stores. However, I want to make sure that before I buy it I can download and play Fam G. Is there some list of devices y’all have that are/aren’t compatible?

    I want to get the iRULU Android Tablet. Any information to help me pull the trigger on this purchase would be fantastic! Just like you lovely ladies! 😉

    Again, thanks for all that y’all do. Y’all really go above and beyond with your intel!

    Like

    • Because that list constantly changes…we don’t. Sorry. My honest best opinion…message TinyCo. As they test all sorts of devices compatibility with their game. I know older versions struggle. And brand new ones do only because it’s common for things to take a bit to be able to function with programming that never existed before. I’ve not personally messed with the device, so I don’t know it’s limits or issues with apps.

      I also suggest this (I’ve done this too) try to go somewhere local if at all possible and try it WITH the app. Your case that’s hard as you said you can’t get your hands on one. So I revert to my first thought…ask them. See if they’ve found any issues.

  42. How do you change your Google mail account but still keep your game data

    Like

    • If you are wanting to change the way you log in…this is the FIRST thing you need to do.

      Menu, Account, lower right corner…take a screenshot or write down that LOOOOOOONG number. It is your Player ID and it is critical to keep handy in case ANYTHING ever happens to your game. That will be your lifeline back to it.

      Once you have that done, this next part will depend on how YOU signed in. If you chose option of just an email…then you need to contact TinyCo for more help.

      If you chose Gmail (g+) or Facebook, you should see the option to DELETE in blue. Tap on that and it will delete your link to the Facebook or g+ account you linked with.

      Once the link is gone, then go ahead and link to whatever option you would like next. Just make sure you select the game level account you are on to link back to the new option.

      If you run into any issues, please reach out to them. Again…Player ID is critical to have handy.

    • Just play at a pace that works for you. If you are a freemium player, you must understand you have to PLAY to win it. If you are Premium, then you PAY to win it. Those are the options. Winning items, especially now with all the changes TinyCo makes…it is very likely to get a really good portion for free, BUT the sacrifice is you WILL have to put in more time to do it. It is the trade out. Pay or Play.

      As far as Steve…ALL American Dad ends on December 4th. So you have til then.
