Its been long since i was able to get all the prices. During the last events i grinded away and still only got like 3 out of 5 prices. Even now i still need 800 appels befor i can get the last price ... Not even sure if i will get it.trying to clean up this pigstail we call our home on my day off, its a game on his on with an almost 4 year old and almost 2 year old running after me and "helping" mummy, so playing tapped out is for when im tapped out :pAnd i do think it is hard for ea to keep us all happy, there are new player who do not have every item yet and there are veteranes who do... Im just glad the game is still here

Personally, I enjoyed this event throughout. Perhaps it was a little heavy on the crafting, but overall it was well balanced. I was able to get all the prizes without having it impact my real life, which I think is the measure a lot of people apply.

Because it wasn't good. This was my third Halloween so there wasn't anything iconic to purchase with donuts because I had them already. Sorry if I don't feel like buying a Ancient ruins. Everything they had for sale was either recurring from previous years or it was something so dull that I don't even remember what episode it came from.They also suck at themes. They could have had Halloween be based around donuts like in the Halloween episode where homer goes to alternate universes and it Rains donuts in one of them. We could have gotten a homer skin where his head was shaped like a donut, then the donut model would have made sense as a prize and also receiving free donuts for the shopkeeper challenge. Instead they stretched everything out too long, gave out horrible prizes (festive homer instead of the iconic "I am evil homer" costume??) and so forth.Also, why doesn't it LOOK like Halloween anymore? The first Halloween I played had fog and it was dark and errie - now the edges are SLIGHTLY darkened and the Trees are orangey-yellow. Wow, cool.

Acts 1 and 2 were great its just that act 3 has a terrible design and it was glitched for more then half the time.

Waaayyy to long an event :shock:

I recall there were many forum complaints that first Halloween that it was TOO dark. Great at first, but eventually depressing.

Seeing as this is my first event, I think it was ok since I got two free premium characters - Hugo and Kodos - just from crafting. Not to getting mention 100 donuts and exp multiplier from crafting spooky walls is nice too tbh.

I liked this event enough and certainly don't think it was the worst. I liked the campfire and pond, was super happy that I got House of Evil and Kodos for free and 100 free donuts was fantastic. Also happy to buy returning items like the graveyard, mausoleum and BDH. Being able to craft Wailing Walls has done wonders for my % bonus.

However, it has really dragged on ( I think 3 weeks is enough) and I would've loved for all the craftables to be new and for old decorations to return for cash. Some of the prizes were quite random and not that great. I also could've done without act 2, sending the adults to the houses on tasks - it didn't fit in very well imo.

The event was fine. It just didn't meet people's unrealistic expectations. That said it was long and I'm ready for the takedown. Hopefully Christmas brings some much needed cheer back to the forum.

'How was your anniversary EA?'
'Well, I ripped some flowers from the neighbors yard, came home, threw the flowers at her feet and told her I wanted sex after she was done cooking me dinner.'
'You really went all out, I bet she was happy.'
'No, she's had nothing but an attitude since.'
'Really?! Flowers, dinner, and romance and she's still not happy?!'
'I know, right?!'
'There's no pleasing some people...'

Not usually a hater, but prizes were pretty rubbish. Crafting stages got old within 10mins due to how easy it is to get all the elements.

Know I'm in the minority, but I really miss the wheel. Added some excitement.
