She does regenerate every 16 hours. If she is on a job when she is able to play, you have to wait until she completes it. I've been having problems when I actually get to play.
I tried playing yesterday, & I found Maggie in no time, but it wouldn't acknowledge that I found her. Time ended up running out. Today, I played and had the same problem. I zoomed in & out & just tried clicking in random spots around where she was. It finally let recognized that I found her with few seconds to spare. It was working fine when I first got the mini game, but I don't want to keep missing out because I have to click NEAR her instead on directly on her!
I'm having the same problem with this game. I've been able to find her every time but have only been able to tap on her once. Tried zooming in and out, multiple clicking, holding etc.
Not the first to post this problem but having the same problem. Three times now I have found Maggie with time to spare and tapped numerous times with no success.
I had the same problem at first, but figured out a workaround. If I imagine that Maggie is the center of a clock, I tap on 7 o'clock. That takes, and lets me complete the game. I haven't missed her once since I figured that out.
It might be different for other people, but for me, she always appears on the same house. I've found her in 10 seconds before!
having the same problem with maggie as everyone else. I found her twice already but was unable to tap on her. Ended up wasting doughnuts in the process.
Glad to see I'm not the only one having problems. I've found Maggie 6 times, but have only been credited for three of those times. I've tapped her repeatedly, only to get the message that I've run out of time! VERY frustrating. Sometimes I wonder why I still play...
Edit: it just happened AGAIN, I tried positioning Maggie in various places on my screen (someone suggested 7'oclock) and it didn't help. Honestly, does anyone at EA play this game? It seems like the developers come up with ideas that don't work or are grossly u satisfying on a routine basis. Prize wheels, etc.
No one seems to be having the same issue that I am.... I completed all the quests for Maggie's minigame, but every time I tap on Homer after having completed the very last task, the game fades to black as if to start a cutaway scene. But then nothing happens. That's it-- just blackness. The game is not actually crashing, it's just a black screen as if it thinks it's doing something and I just can't see it. Extremely annoying. It stay black for so long that my ipad eventually goes to sleep/auto locks. At this rate, I will never get to play the minigame. Please fix!!!
Had the same problem as everyone else, finally found out tapping near, but not directly on her seems to work for me. Although I have a different problem as well, I run two games on two different devices, 1 works fine the other starts the clock at 1:46. Hopefully when the current game is over it will correct itself. Time will tell.
In answer to some that say tapping on the building works? Not for me. Just like the Monorail event, some could play, others couldn't get connected, and I wasn't able to connect for 4 days at one point. There is always something, and I refuse to believe I'm doing something wrong. It's EA's baby, not mine. I've pretty much given up on the game. Not worth my toil and trouble.
I tried playing today & it seemed to work when I clicked the building instead of directly on her, but I'm not sure if it will keep working like that...
I've lost at least 5 minigames because of this bug. I tap like crazy and the time just keeps counting down. This is so frustrating! I'm starting to think the bug is intentional so we don't get too many donuts and resort to spending money on the game.

How many times do people have to complain about the same problem before the issue gets fixed.
EA or Origin needs to give us some free donuts for this!

That's a bug that can't be a mistake... *smelling a conspiracy*
