    LOL. Yet another glitch to add to the list. Come on EA, get some game testers.

    At last! Something that clears the 5 or 6 ghosts at once rather than wasting 30 seconds to tap them!

    This is the worst implementation of this item possible. How much time or effort does it really save? Is it worth spending donuts on? Is it even worth using the 5 free ones?

    Had it generated new ghosts, that would have been great, because you're trading donuts for more potential GOO than was already there. Had it been usable on freinds' Springfields it might have been useful, in that it would allow you to get more than just the 5 (or 6 if you time it right) GOO for popping ghosts in each town daily. If it also cleared haunted houses or especially gremlins, which can waste a lot of time trying to hit just right, then I could see it being worth the time and potentially the donuts.

    As it is, however, the fact that it activates with a single tap means people will likely use them by accident when they have few or no ghosts to clear. For someone who doesn't use donut confirm (or who accidentally turns it off when adjusting other settings), there's also the potential to spend 20 donuts on a consumable resource that won't be usable after another 3 weeks.

    Currently, there's no reason to give EA your money for these, as you'll still end up with the same amount of GOO as you would have gotten without them, albeit with a few fewer taps on your screen. And let's be honest, as long as you still have to tap every house and character to get them to release their money/XP, saving a few taps a day is of negligible value.

    What a stupid prize. This would have been awesome for WD, but the couple ghost we get? Garbage.

    This does such an awe inspiring job of clearing the 4 ghosts max that I always have in my town, I mean I literally cannot thank the heavens above enough for this time saving and finger saving option, it's the best thing there is in the whole game.

    The ghost bombs are great! I'm sick of clearing all the ghosts out and now I can open the game, drop a bomb, and be on my way. And the timing for the prize is perfect! Most people have hit 10k goo and I am probably not the only person who just wants all the ghosts gone and fast. Well done EA. You will sell a lot of these bombs to us lazy folk.

    I'm quite disappointed in the ghost bombs. who in their right mind would purchase these with donuts? probably the same people who would purchase gremlins.

    I agree I think the ghost bomb will be great for when you first wake up our when you first get home from work or the 12 or 24 hour checkers.

    the Bombs are so lame why can't we use them in other towns..??

    and why do we have to obtain more with use of donuts.?? why not in game $....

    Stupid prize. The vacuum was good enough imo. I used the bomb once, it cleared all my ghosts from overnight then my game crashed so I lost all that goo :x So yeah, I'm not happy with this prize..

    Dumbdumbdumbdumb! Wish they would blow up the dolphin into small pieces and then we could sell it at blinkys and get money from it on a daily basis... :thumbdown:

    Even if you have no ghosts, setting off a ghost bomb will generate 11 Goos.

    Like with gremlins, you can get new ghost bombs by tapping.

    This'll come in handy when nearing the 2000 goo count.
