What changed with the Mystery Box Upgrade and Easter 2015 updates?

One thing I would like to add is that they also nerfed the blue house farm (and potentially all house farming?) The cost of the house seems to be growing with the number of them you have. Bulding a blue house now costs 216000 for me. While the other houses are still at their low price and those are the ones I only placed once.

Seems like there's an algorithm behind house prices now... the more you build of one, the higher the price gets. The fewer you have, the closer the price is to the "old" price.

So for you, your blue house prices are inflated. For me it's brown houses... others its white houses.

Kwik-E-Marts, Brown Houses, White Houses, Purple Houses, Krusty Burgers, Blue Houses, Pink Houses, Orange Houses and Gulp 'N' Blows now costs an increased ammount of money depending on how many the user has.

Ah, thanks for clearing that up!

In my sons town, I got Blue Haired lawyer in free box. Bought just one more and got 30 donuts ... Figured I'd use them for 5 more boxes. Got news van, Kearney, minnow pond, 10 donuts (aka "I'm gonna buy me a mystery box with those"), tire fire, 10 donuts. I stopped. It was like Vegas, except this time I didn't have to hitchhike home

This was insane.


:lol: :lol: :lol:

Mystery box was super awesome for me. I just spend all my donuts on the beach house so I only had 2 to start. I bought 4 scratch off tickets and got 6 donuts for the first 3 and then score, 50 donuts.

I spent 60 of my 70 donuts and got:

Blue haired lawyer
Tire fire
Itchy and Scratchy billboard
A second Lard Lad Donuts
2 x 10 donuts
1 x 30 donuts
1 hot dog stand
1 bomb shelter
2 ponds

Still have 54 donuts. Stopped because I have all the premium items now. Definitely worth it.

Did they remove the multiplier on bonsai? In store it just says "improves tree hugging"...I thought it had like a .025% multiplier or something like that.

(Can Akira finally stop creating my bonsai forest?)

Bonsai Vivant Pt. 3 and Repot A Bonsai no longer opens Inventory upon completion.

Is this true? I just completed the bonsai build and as always, my inventory popped up to show me I had 40 in stock.

I think the police station animation has changed. There's a sheet rope coming from one of the windows that I never noticed before, and the pattern of the flashing lights seems different. I think they used to alternate, now they all flash at the same time.

I thought they never had a multiplier.
