    I would give this event 7/10. I gave it a higher score because of the nostalgic episodes for which the items are based. For the most part, the buildings could have been better. Looking forward to Nero's.

    I voted "I like it a lot". I predict by the end of the event it could hit 2nd or 3rd on my list of favourite events. Stonecutters takes the first place, there was nothing lacking in that event, and nothing was there that I wished wasn't. Currently Superheroes is 2nd, both for all the great characters/skins, the storyline. Did it also debut Fight Club? Monsarno is also very high, for having all of the Terwilligers, and how crazy I went with Fight Club!! The only thing holding this event back is that it needs slightly more characters (only 1 or 2-for example certain White Tiger owners!) and the HORRIBLE inclusion of crafting again!!!

    I love it but it's also my first full event that I have been able to do. I just started playing during act 3 of the winter event.

    That's a tough time to start this game! I'm sorry that happened! :(

    I started just before Thanksgiving 2013, like a week before, and you needed to get to Level 15 to get Moe's, I was on that game for about 12 hours non-stop, and I finally got it!! I was just lucky events weren't as involved back then, with no Acts or anything, just one long timer to complete everything!!

    Those were the days-there was no crafting either! ;)

    The fact that I play 3-4 times daily and still couldn't get Lucious in ANY of my 3 towns is ridiculous.

    I actually like MOST of the prizes. Not being able to craft til level ups is stupid. I'm STILL not at level 2.

    LOVE the design of my casino district just hate the denominations/odds of the event

    I like it a lot, mostly because my creative juices stopped flowing for a while and this, along with the area select tool, has rekindled my designing. The prizes are great and the bonuts are plentiful.

    +1. My thoughts exactly.

    I'm enjoying the event but agree with crafting being difficult. Would be nice to use the exotic trees and fountains to decorate my casinos. Spent the majority of my supplies to upgrade crafting to level 2......

    Love it. I have always been a fan of the look of casinos. I love the way everything in the event looks and I am looking forward to making a casino section in my town after the event is over. Plus the questline is great and each act has a new character.

    Cool decorations with new buildings so I can make my own Vegas strip.

    The only thing missing would've been Gunter & Ernst with Anatasia. And perhaps Robert Goulet, but that wouldn't happen considering he's a real life celebrity.

    However that doesnt mean you cant have a task for nelson to wait for Robert Goulet at barts casino does it? as long as he doesnt physically appear, and of course Just stamp the ticket guy was at the town hall meeting that agreed to casinos so he couldve been added as well.

    They need to add Just Stamp the Ticket Guy as soon as possible. His Smart aleck remarks are needed.

    Yup - apart from the stupid levelling up on the crafting. I didn't think it was possible to make crafting worse, but, hats off to EA, they have managed it. Overall though, I can overlook that, as I'm getting lots of crafting currency. All in all, a great event IMHO :D

    The crafting idea is terrible...I barely made the end of Act one (no boughnuts and didn't complete Monorail until Sunday)
    I dislike grinding events. Give me the newer mini events.

    I would enjoy it more if I hadn't just started a new and wasn't planning my wedding. But, that's not EA's fault. :P

    I really like it, I think the buildings, fountains, and lights are really cool. Like others I'm not happy about the leveling up for crafting, but I'm not doing so bad on that(4 away from level 3 at the moment) and I think it will work out ok in the end that I will get to craft the items I want.

    Hoping that Homer's cards are better than Cletus's Dice.

    Also I've enjoyed designing my Vegas, it is easy to fit in other buildings and decorations, IMO.

    The Mars colony on the other hand :roll: Shouldn't it be, I don't know....on Mars?

    So far the casino event is good so far except the crafting of course. I don't like the grinding to level up the items since it takes too long when not being able to play the game. EA should stop doing anymore crafting & start doing something new as well refreshing.

    Yup. Like this one a lot.

    I don't mind the crafting at all, and normally I am pretty annoyed with it.

    Other than the lag and the usual issues with neighbor visits, this has been pretty darn good.

    Really like that almost every casino has a character task assigned so that you can see them lit up too. They won't be useless after the event ends.

    I love this event! We can build entire entertainment districts because of the event! Many great and popular new characters, funny story-lines. This event is even better than... Easter 2014 event!
