How do you get robbers so you can drop them in friends towns?

  • You win purple masks when you tap them

    The masks let you drop robbers in your neighbours' towns.
  • Robbers? The targets are agents and robbers? What do the robbers look like? I know the agents look like train conductors and those are the ones I’ve been attacking in my hood and neighbors.
  • Okay, the robbers have a mask, wear all black and they tippy-toe around (like they’re sneaking) instead of walking.
  • No robbers in my town. So now what?

    The robbers are in all black and tip toe around suspiciously. It's the same character from the superheros events.

    the conductor looking people are in your town but neighbors drop the crooks (black ones) in your town and other neighbors. i had a screen come up that said no neighbors have left any crooks in my town :(:D
    you drop crooks (black clad ones) in your neighbors towns. i did have a town that i visited that had one creeping around and wasn’t able to tap it

    I haven't seen any yet. I dropped something in @daved7637397 's town but I hadn't figured out the masks nor seen a robber yet so thank you for clearing that up for me. :)

  • What if you don't have any friends actively playing? Can you drop robbers in other Springfield?

    i’ve only gotten 3 masks so far in my crawl, i haven’t had much time to mess with this event yet but it looks like masks are hard to come by now but i could be wrong. Im thinking of saving enough masks to drop 1 to each neighbor. I’m thinking there was an event like this not long ago and when i dropped them the pace of neighbors dropping to my town picked up. It’s a long event so i’m thinking drop rates and mask collection might pick up
    oh and by the way, @daved7637397 last i heard was on a vandalising mission :D David might be working now and hasn’t visited yet

    yes, but no one will drop criminals to your town. if you are looking for neighbors than you need to go back to game discussion and near the top of topics is an “add me’ thread that you can get names to add and you can post to for players to request you can add them in your friends screen

    I have a Daily Challenge for "Send Crooks to Friends' Towns". Most event challenges can be completed in a four hour cycle or so, but it's seemingly gonna take away to collect three new Crooks.
