  1. Is there a way to reduce the storage requirements for FG? It is using 2gb on my iPad.

    • You can try to clear out some items by ensuring your game is saved to an email or Facebook. Then clear the cache and data for the App from your device, uninstall, reinstall a new fresh download from the Apple Store, then LOAD your saved file on the Level you left on back onto the device to see if that helps. These types of games though will take up a LOT of space. Not really a way around it. Just clean up what you can. In the game try to store the items you really don’t need right now. It will help in the long run for your device to function easier too without a cluttered and cramped town.

      Other than that, you can let TinyCo know the amount it takes your device to run it and see if they have any additional suggestions.

    • Only if you do not save your game to an Email of Facebook. If you are already linked… you are fine. I would suggest storing a bunch of items when you get back in. Help your device if it is struggling with the drain of memory the game is using.

  10. I haven’t seen this question posted before. I still have the Pawtucket Brewery active and Chumba Wumbas running around my Quahog. My characters can still do all the quests for items needed to craft items in the brewery (and I have crafted every item multiple times.). Is this normal behavior? It seems like that event ended and it no longer serves any purpose to earn those components or have Chumba Wumbas running around.

  15. Hello again Bunny, sorry if I’m asking to many questions , I’m feeling like it’s getting annoying, but you’ve been pretty helpful so far , so here’s my nest question. Do you know , or could you point me in the right direction of any info of possibly a chart , showing what my money is going to actually clear , when I use my lil Mexican buddies to ” clear blocks” for me? It appears that I only have 2 little blocks left 1 for $70 & the other gorgeous $80,000, and they are currently in the process of clearing the one for $75gs as I type. My concern is I’ve had it happen ,or ag least I noticed once or twice that after I cleared a block , another leaf blower symbol would pop up behind it & I’m hoping & really wanna know if that’s gonna happen on these 2 big $ lots?

    • Just the basics of playing the game. You will have a main questline running and a few side ones each District. You will need land. It will come in HUGE use as you grow your town. Just do what you can when you can.

      As for an actual Land Map… I do not think we ever put one together for the site. Mainly just the info as each District released, which is the main time and one of the ONLY times that Land is handed out.

      • Ok, well I kinda wish I woulda taken screen shots and made one since I stared , so mabye I coulda helped someone else in the future.:( anywho I guess I shoulda mentioned that the last 3 blocks I have to, & am unlocking are strange to me because they are the 3 most expensive in the game , yet have been available for clearing since the very start!? They are far left center and far left bottom. So I’m obviously going to get more land tomorrow when district 9 gets unlocked, but it just struck me as odd..
        Ok , we’ll thanx again Bunny& co.

        • They are not really sectioned off as normal plots either. I think that is more why it made it difficult for us to “map” it. Some where one strip, some double, others a complete square chunk. It just varies all over the place.

          • Update:
            The final 2 properties that I had to still unlock for 75 & 80 G’s have turned out 3 more I have had to open , costing 85 , 90 & $105,000!!! Needless to say ( but I’m sayin it anywho) I was abit pissed off ,lol, but at least I’m pretty sure that’s gonna be the last of them , if not I’ll check back, have a great holiday weekend.

  16. Hey Fellow Quahogians, (& Bunny & staff) , I wanted to post a comment because I was curious to see if anyone else uses the same method as me for making sure I always have plenty of ca$h. I have about 85% of my Quahog lined ( 50 across by 10 to 25 in different areas wide) with Standard Offices. I use the offices since they make the most XP 7.5ph & $ the fastest & can be bought with money, there are 3 others , but they have to be bought with clams, Dansu Dansu, Family Jewels ,Coffee Shop.
    Anyone else using this method?

    • As space gets more and more limited… many do not opt for “house farming” options. They may just in the beginning, but only $$$ ones and not Clam ones. Then… tuck them away. You get to a point that money isn’t really a major issue.

      • Yeah I figured that too, but as of right now, I’m leaving enough space to purchase whatever is available or needed for quests , and until I purchase all of the property ( aka leaf blower fields) which will be by next week and can buy the Lincoln statue & dictator Stewie plus whatever other expensive things I gotta get ,then I figured I could liquidate all of my offices and spread out my town to look really sweet , instead of OCD compacted like I have it now, HECK , mabye I’ll even put some streets back in Quohog!! Lol
        Thanks for the input Bunny, always a pleasure.

        • Hey Bunny , I just purchaced the final piece of buy able land to clear ( although there may end up being more later since I’m only up to district 10 ) , but the final piece ended up costing $120K. I hope this helps anyone wanting to know. If I open district 9 & more land clears cost more $ I’ll update.

    • Wipe everything off your device. Uninstall. Restart device. Reinstall from App Market. Then start a new game and sync your log in to the new level 1. Do NOT load a saved game. Just keep in mind you’ll lose everything. Characters, Materials, Clams, etc

    • Right now, mainly IF you can access your game from your Facebook. It is the only current way it links to your account in a way.

      The only other PC option is the Windows Stand Alone… and as stated… it is a Stand Alone. Not linked in anyway at all to your game. Limited content. Districts only up to #8

    • It is the error that the Secret Concerts triggered. Try to first make sure your app is up to date in your app market. Then, only if your game is saved, you can try an uninstall/reinstall…. outside of that… Contact TinyCo to fix it.
