This is the first update to offer prizes, and the second requiring the player to tap on a non-playable character to kill them - the first was zombies during the Halloween Update in 2012.
 
  
The update comes with a new splash screen and a new icon. The update now allows players to watch every cutscene from the game in a special "Cutscene" section of the build menu; the cutscenes are "Kaboom", "Home Alone", "Treehouse" and "True Love".

The update for Google Play came with Origin, enabling Android players to add friends and visit their towns.

+
}}
:'''Homer''': If you need a weapon, what about that shotgun in your back pocket?
 
:'''Cletus''': Doesn't seem very sporting...
 
:'''Homer''': Oh, Cletus. Whacking Day is just like any other beloved tradition: the point is to murder as many snakes as possible. By any means necessary.
 
:'''Cletus''': Well said, fat man.
 
  
Then the player receives "Whacking Day Pt. 6", which requires the player to "Reach Level 6 and Build Cletus's Farm" and to "Make Cletus Shoot Snakes".

:'''Lisa''': Those aren't crimes!
 
 
 
Then the player receives "Whacking Day Pt. 7", which is to "Send Lisa to Release Snakes from Another Town". The task takes 5 hours and rewards the player with {{Snake|3}} and {{XP|50}}. Once the task is set, the player's town list pops up - with only those towns that have taken part in the Whacking Day update appearing. Underneath the player's name is the amount of snakes they have whacked. The player must select a town for Lisa to release snakes from. Whichever town you pick's whacked snake count will reduce, and yours will increase. After the player selects a town, Lisa goes to the [[Simpson House]] to start her task. ''Note: Other Springfield has a non-changing whacked snake count of 20.''

=== Prizes ===
 
Unlike during previous seasonal events, the unlocking of a prize doesn't require the player to actually spend their snake currency. Prizes are unlocked by just having the required amount of snakes in your account. Missing snakes can be replaced by spending donuts, at a rate of 5 donuts for each 50 snakes missing. The Whack Box is giving the player cash or donuts. It's 5% odds for 3 donuts, 10% odds for 2 donuts, 20% odds for 1 donut, 30% odds for $1000, and 35% odds for $750.
