Act 1 Gameplay[edit]

The Man Who Knew Too Little[edit]

The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 1[edit]

After the user logs in on March 28th: Hey, look at this classified ad for the Arcturus Modelling Agency. I'm a shoo in! "Seeking fat, middle-aged, bald man with background in nuclear safety". Dad, don't you think this ad is suspiciously targeted at you? Just because I have one of those things -- a background in nuclear safety? Also, since when do we get the newspaper? When does ANYONE get the paper? Well, I can't ignore a tiny ad in a dead paper. I'm off to catch my big break! Task: Make Homer Try Out for the Modelling Gig (6s, Brown House) V'elcome, Mr. Simpson. Vee have been expecting you. How did you know vy name?! How many Mr. Simpsons can there be in the world? Umm... You don't have to answer that. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 2[edit]

After completing The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 1: So what kind of nude modelling is this? No one said anything about nude: please put your pants back on. Come with me, Mr. Simpson. We must get you in hair and makeup. Good luck improving on this beefcake. Mmm... beef cake. Task: Make Homer Go to Hair and Makeup (6s, Brown House) On job start: Not that I'm not into it, but what's with all the restraints? Silence! Focus on the screen. Soon you will find yourself hypnotized against your own government... Death to the G-men! I haven't started the hypnosis yet. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 3[edit]

After completing The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 2: Hair and muzzle makeup wasn't so hard – I don't see what all those models are complaining about. Homer, you must initiate Project Lazarus. Gather minions and form your own superpower. Oh, no! I've developed a judgmental inner voice, like all models! The voice you hear is coming from the headset we gave you. I THOUGHT you were different from the voices I usually hear. Task: Make Homer Gather Minions (6s, Brown House) Task: Trick Springfielders Into Being Brainwashed [x3] (6s, Brown House) Characters: Apu, Cletus, Krusty, Skinner, Marge, Moe Well done. Now we will brainwash the masses into hating their own government. Way ahead of you, creepy voice. I already told people postage stamps were going up two cents. The masses are collecting pitchforks and lighting torches now. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 4[edit]

After completing The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 3: It's time to establish a base of operations: somewhere to conduct our various acts of subterfuge. How 'bout Krusty Burger? They've got free WiFi and a new seven-patty burger, called the Widowmaker. It makes funerals fun again! This will be a brand new state-of-the-art facility, not some slop factory. I've set up an account for you with near-unlimited funds. Thanks, but I'll just get Sky Finger to pay for it. Task: Build Agency Headquarters Task: Send Agents to Collect Intel on the Widowmaker [x3] Unreleased text: Not bad, but I'm not tasting seven patties. The meat plays tricks on your mind and in a few hours it'll play tricks on your digestive tract.

The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 5[edit]

After completing The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 4: You've done well, Homer. I think it's time we met. Look behind you. A talking car?! I knew they were real! No, Homer, over here. Mr. Scorpio? I thought you... you know... died. You can't kill an idea, Homer – just break many of its bones, collapse some of its organs and force it into hiding. But I'm back, and I want you to be my number two. A fella always dreams of meeting a number one who needs a number two! Task: Tap the Men in Tan [x10] Look out, Martin Shkreli! I'll be back on top of Forbes Most Evil Employers list in a heartbeat. They just call that "Top CEOs" now. Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 6[edit]

After completing The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 5: The key to any intelligence agency is the intelligence: you've got to have more eyes than Mississippi. That would be four. We'll need more than that. Willie can hide cameras everywhere and watch 'em all from me custodian's closet. I appreciate the disturbing offer, but we need to think bigger. I'm talking global positioning satellite levels of peeping tomfoolery. In my day, we used to just root through people's garbage. Hey, you're talkin' about my home there! Task: Build the Surveillance Post Task: Launch the Drone Scan Uh oh, I think I broke something. What, that flash? Drones have a tendency to overload like that. Lucky for us, it also wipes the memory of anyone who looks at it and sends them packing. You did cover your eyes for that, didn't you? Um... what answer doesn't make me look stupid...? Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Pretty Fly for a WiFi[edit]

After completing The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 6: Someone has been trying to hack into our network, and I'm afraid I've discovered whom. That's good news. Is it the FBI? NSA? CIA? Please don't tell me... the WNBA? I'm afraid it's YOU. Oh, God: my only equal. I should say, alternate yous. Or is it parallel? Sorry, I was sick on review day at the university. We've got to beat me at my own game: it's hack or be hacked. Task: Hack WiFi in a Friend's Town [x3] So much data. I don't have to actually read through all this, do I? The point of espionage isn't what you DO with the information, just that you HAVE it. Woo-hoo! Just as I suspected: reading is for suckers. Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 7[edit]

After completing Pretty Fly for a WiFi: We're wasting too much time and energy on putting out fires. So we should be starting fires? When the heat is on, one needs to be a master of disguise and hide in plain sight. Way ahead of you. Take that off, Homer. Homer who? I'm Admiral Troutpuncher of Her Majesty's Royal Navy. Oh, brother. Quest reward: 40 Task: Build the Hidden Research Facility Task: Spend Schematics on Research Quest reward: 50 and 500 Event Currency

Eye Spy, You Spy[edit]

Eye Spy, You Spy Pt. 1[edit]

After completing The Man Who Knew Too Little Pt. 7: NOW we're spying! Just remember the Six Sigma three C's: Collect, Consume, and Control. That's my goal for every meal. Just look what Oogle pulled off: they turned harmless driving directions into global surveillance. And made me fall for a sexy computer voice that I can never have for my own. Task: Make Homer Bug Houses (4h, Homes) Strong work, Homer. Where did you train to become such an expert in spying? Years of practicing on Flanders. My motto: A bug in every Bible and a camera in every Christ on the cross. Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Eye Spy, You Spy Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark: You guys are going about this all wrong. Everyone already willingly shares their most intimate details on Springface. Get with the times, man! I'm still partial to keistering microfilm. Nothin' beats the feelin' of knowing you got secrets in your bum. Ignore the old man, but the boy is onto something. Social media is the modern spycraft and knowledge is more powerful than any gun... ...except for ACTUAL guns, naturally. Let's get creeping! I can't wait to pretend I still care about jerks I haven't seen since high school. Task: Make Homer Signup for Springface (4h, Simpson House) Task: Make Bart Hack Homer's Springface (4h, Simpson House) Homer! Why did you change your relationship status to "It's complicated"?! I don't remember doing that. Maybe it was at the same time that I changed my name to "Anita Mann". *chuckles* Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Eye Spy, You Spy Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: Data is everywhere and it's ripe for the picking. The trick is in getting some, without people realizing they're giving it away. Like prom night. We've got banner ads, malware, pop-ups, drop-downs, and freemium mobile games – all that's left is to spam people with phishing emails. Aye-aye, Captain! I'm onboard hook, line, and sinker. Task: Make Homer Spam Fishing Emails (4h, Simpson House) Soooo... I think my email got hacked. You made your password "password" didn't you? I'm not an idiot. I made it "Homer Simpson's password". Much harder. Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Eye Spy, You Spy Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: What were you thinking, using your personal email instead of the encrypted one I gave you? It was convenient – I've had ChunkyLover53 since college. It speaks more about me than me. Well, now your identity has been stolen! Can we go identity shopping? Can we?! Can we?! Ooo, I can be Hank Scorpio! ... Task: Make Homer Shop for a New Identity (4h, Kwik-E-Mart) What happened to finding a new identity? I got mine back, once the guy realized it wasn't worth stealing. AND he improved my credit score. Now I can go out and ruin it again! System Message The story will continue in Act 2. Keep scanning for Agents and collecting Intel to get more prizes! Quest reward: 50 and 500 Event Currency

Act 2 Gameplay[edit]

The Worn Identity[edit]

The Worn Identity Pt. 1[edit]

After the user logs in on April 11th: We can't keep up! For every enemy we know about, there are four more hiding in the shadows. Like paternity suits! Or Mother's moles. What good are eyes everywhere, when half of them are lazy? What we need is a sleeper agent. Did someone say "sleeper"? *Yawn* I might be able to help you out. Task: Make Homer Become a Sleeper Agent (4h) Sir, are you alright? Wha...? Homer, you did it: you exposed an enemy agent! Woo-hoo! That's a lot less than I normally expose! Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

The Worn Identity Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: You're a natural covert agent, Homer. I'm sending you under cover. Ooh, "under covers"! Do I get pajamas? If not, I can sleep in the buff. What you get is this donut with a microscopic camera, so that you- A micro-what? That camera is lost forever. We can get it back when it comes out. Like I said, "lost forever". We'll go with a second camera in a giant cowboy hat instead. Task: Make Homer Go Undercover (4h) How'd it go? Did you get some good footage? I watched a plastic bag blow in the wind for hours. That footage is still more exciting than Daniel Day Lewis' "Lincoln". Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

The Worn Identity Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: Egahh!! Those are the most horrifying monsters I've ever seen! This is the footage we recovered from your stomach. Last night's pork chops don't look so pretty anymore. And why is your hat buzzing? That's probably the bee. I bugged it, just like you said. Don't worry, I made sure it was a queen: I'm not an idiot. Task: Make Homer Run From Bees (4h) Soon I'll be more honey than spy! Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

No Rest for the Wicked[edit]

After tapping on Marge's exclamation mark: Being an evil mastermind isn't all fun and games – except for Mastermind: the game, which is fun. We can play that after this. I can only imagine how much dust builds up in an underground volcano base. It's worth it for what I save on my heating bill, and nothing keeps the minions in line like being surrounded by molten lava. An evil mastermind isn't just evil laughs and Rube Goldberg death traps? No. And it's not a one-man operation. One has to surround oneself with good henchmen like you, Homer. There's no "I" in Mastermind. Task: Make Homer Practice His Evil Laugh (4h, Agency Headquarters) Task: Make Sea Captain Feed the Mutant Sharks (4h, Agency Headquarters) Task: Make Willie Clean the Death Traps (4h, Agency Headquarters) Muhahaha! Keep practicing – it's got to come from a deep dark place within you. It's coming from my gut. I meant your childhood. Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Secret Agent Moe[edit]

After tapping on Moe's exclamation mark: It's time we fought fire with its mortal enemy: more fire! Didn't the Cold War teach you anything about world-devastating weapon one-upmanship? That's a great idea: an endless cycle of fear! I got just what you guys need: a jar of pickled eggs that's been sitting by the radiator since I first opened shop. Do we dare cross the line into biological warfare? Task: Make Moe Retrieve Preserves of Mass Destruction (4h, Moe's Tavern) No one will mess with you, so long as you've got these rancid bomb shells! Hey Moe, your eggs are bursting with flavor! System Message The story will continue in Act 3. Keep scanning for Agents and collecting Intel to get more prizes! Quest reward: 50 and 500 Event Currency

Act 3 Gameplay[edit]

Mission Unpossible[edit]

Mission Unpossible Pt. 1[edit]

After the user logs in on April 25th and tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: I don't like the look of this chatter. We may have a mole among us. At the risk of thinking way outside of the box, I accuse Moleman! You're going to need to go deep, deep under cover, Homer. A doub- trip- no, a DODECA agent. I'll fix him up so hoyvin-glayvin much Homer'll be more mole than man. Ooh... some sort of super secret, special training? No time for that. Task: Make Homer Receive Shock Therapy (4h, Frink's Lab or Agency Headquarters) Does everything taste purple to anyone else? Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Mission Unpossible Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Marge's exclamation mark: Homey, I'm worried: you're barely eating eight meals a day, and last night I caught you interrogating yourself on the toilet. I was just yelling at the toilet paper. It knows why. You're clearly overdoing it for Mr. Scorpio. Marge, you knew what you were getting into when you married a spy. I didn't marry a spy! Just promise me you'll take some time off. Fine, but if Mr. Scorpio calls, I'm busy carrying out his nefarious directives. Task: Make Homer Take Some Time Off (4h, Simpson Home) Task: Make Homer's Alter Ego Work a Double Shift (8h, Agency Headquarters) Homer, where have you been? Where am I NOW? Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Mission Unpossible Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: Hank, I think I need to get out of the spy game. What's the trouble, Homer? Losing your identity? Can't take all the lying and backstabbing? No, I love those parts. I'm too confused by the spoons that are also forks, or pens with invisible ink. It's not invisible ink – you left the cap on. And I suppose my shoe phone is just a shoe?! Task: Make Homer Get Out of the Spy Game (4h, Agency Headquarters) Sorry to let you down, Hank. I know you saw something special in me. That's okay, Homer. I only chose you because we have the same initials: it saved me a buttload on monogrammed office supplies. Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Mission Unpossible Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: I'm here to turn in my badge, Hank. I never gave you a badge. Oh, right. That's a mustard stain. Look, Homer, what if instead of getting out of the spy game, you do one last job? You mean like the "one last job" that's suppose to make me set for life, but instead gets me killed or imprisoned? Well... yes. A job offer is a job offer! Task: Make Homer Do One Last Job (4h, Agency Headquarters) That's it, Hank: I'm out – and I burned off my fingerprints. You didn't have to do that. It wasn't on purpose. I tried to pull bacon out of a deep fryer with my bare hands. Quest reward: 10 and 100 Event Currency

Mission Unpossible Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: Where do you think YOU'RE going? We had a deal: one more job, then I'm out. I can't just let you go back to walking around town with all those secrets in your head. Are you here to... KILL ME? Only the parts you won't need anymore. Task: Make Homer Receive More Shock Therapy (4h, Frink's Lab or Agency Headquarters) Nigerian inheritance? I'm rich! Quest reward: 50 and 500 Event Currency
