  3. I wasted 50 bucks on your game and it crashes for 30 seconds. I am a level 55 and I don’t want to loose my file. So first I’ve been frustrated with the bugs so I made an account to put the game on and moved it to my sd card just in case I would back up and reset my phone. So thats what I did, after that I put my sd card in and I dont see my game! I looked in the files and moved it to the device storage and I still cant find it. After that I installed it and it started all over. I tried signing in with my old account but it wasn’t there. Please tinyco please help. I just dont want to lose my money

  11. Well a new issue today.

    Now there are no toad lickers about the game. So as of right now the only way to get picks is to spend more clams, which means more real money.

    I had started all the long quests so I could do an encore concert then the next morning, Joe shows up and no encores allowed and after clearing the last 3 toad lickers none have spawned. It has been that way since last night. Toads, and girls spawn but no toad lickers.

    So any word on what is really happening now? Is this just my game or another cash only event?

    Thanks in advance for the help.

  24. The first time I started playing this game everything was going good, but when I put Meg or Semis to do something I leave the page so that the time can go while they are doing their stuff. When I try to go back in it wouldn’t let me. So I had to uninstall it. Later I reinstalled the game so when I had Meg and Semis I didn’t let them do anything. Afterwards my niece started to play with the game and she put Meg to do something and now I can’t go in the game. So I don’t know if I should uninstall it or what should I do?? I’m already up to Brian. I was going to free up the Chinese place.

    • The info you are giving is a bit vague. Can you be more specific? Why can’t you get in? Is there a pop up message? If so, can you tell me EXACTLY what it says or post a screenshot? Can you tell me WHAT Meg & Seamus were doing when it happened? The task names?

      More info supplied and I may be able to help better. 😉

    • It varies each event. It all depends on HOW it is linked to the Event. If it is a direct correlation to the items only available in the Event, it usually won’t continue on. It is most likely the side questlines will. Right now, I assume Retep, Evil Stewie, and Satan’s will. But we will know for sure closer to end of event if not after.

    • That may be something else. When I usually saw that message, it was due to the limited memory storage on my device. You may want to try a few basic steps for that.

      Completely exit the game and restart your device. See if that helped. If not, then try to move around some items on your device or delete them. Pics usually take up the most memory… so if there are some you can email to yourself or put in a dropbox folder to get them off your device and open up some room… try that.
