Gameplay[edit]

Games of Their Own[edit]

Games of Their Own Pt. 1[edit]

After the user logs in on August 3: Remember those frequent flyer miles you got after the airline accidentally shipped you as oversized baggage? Let's use them to go to the Summer Games in Rio! Rio in Brazil? No thank you! I got kidnapped there. And then to add insult to injury, they had no sense of humor about it. Let's just host our own unsanctioned event in Springfield! Well I'm usually pro-sanctions, but your idea could really help the town! Plus the bribes will have a way better exchange rate. Task: Make Lisa Petition for Springfield Games (6s, Town Hall) The Springfield Games in Springfield? We already hosted the World Mug of Soccer and Baseball's Global Sequence, so I don't see why not. Don't forget the popular Tour De Springfield featuring tricycle legend Lance Weak-Wrist. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Games of Their Own Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: The Springfield Games? Er, I can't make such a big decision without consulting my most trusted group of arbitrary advisors. As your business and corruption czar, I predict the games will be a boon for the stock market, black market, and possibly even farmers' market. Alright! More tourists means more pockets for the pickin'. An influx of foreigners? Finally a chance to use that new riot gear we got - it's the new Necessary Roughness line from Kevlar Klein. The cabinet has spoken! Let the games begin! Task: Make Snake Plan Tourist Scams (6s, Town Hall) Task: Make Wiggum Plan Police "Assistance" (6s, Town Hall) Task: Make Quimby Announce the Springfield Games (6s, Town Hall) I'm pleased to announce that Springfield has been chosen, by a panel of me, to host the Springfield Games! And like any major citywide event, gala, or riot, our most precocious 8-year-old, Lisa, will handle all the planning. What!? But I JUST got done with the March Anger Tournament. Why don't you just copy the plans made in 1999 when we almost hosted the Springfield Games. That's what I do with all my homework. And if you need a mascot, you can use Springy, the Springfield Spring! He could use the money ever since he lost his mattress endorsement deal. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Games[edit]

Springfield Games Pt. 1[edit]

After completing : No one wants to help me! I can't put on these Springfield Games all by myself. It's not like a production of my one woman show – Sax, the Facts. Everyone better help my little girl or I'll make us play Tap Ball again! Oh God no! My Tap Ball flashbacks are way worse than my Nam ones. You can have the school gym for training and events. Finally, those kids who fail their classes aren't the only ones lucky enough to be in school during summer! Now I just need suggestions for events. So far I have one request for Tap Ball and 102 requests for anything but Tap Ball. Task: Make Homer Intimidate Springfielders (3h, Town Hall Task: Collect Participation Ribbons [x8] We have 12 suggestions but they are a little weird... Footvolley? Shin-Kicking? Get-Out-Of-My Way-I-Don't-Want-To-Participate-In-Your-Survey Ball? No normal sports like Rugby Sevens or Canoeing or Handball? Bart, this is an "unsanctioned" Springfield Games – we're not limited by reason. Why not use all 12 ideas and have a decathlon? Dad, 12 events would be a Dodecathlon. Lisa, shut your mouth. Math has no place in sports - ask any baseball fan. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Games Pt. 2[edit]

After completing Springfield Games Pt. 1: Lisa, if I could suggest a lucky 13th event, what about Go-Karts? I don't know. That would require cars, roads, working brakes - it all sounds so expensive. Just think, each inevitable Go-Kart fatality means one less school lunch you have to budget for next year. Plus Miss Springfield could be the flag girl! Lisa, I, err, demand we add Kid Go-Kart races to the Springfield Games. Task: Make Lisa Include Go-Kart Racing For the Kids (3h, Springfield Elementary Task: Collect Participation Ribbons [x16] Children, listen. If you wish to excel at racing, you must be trained by Lugash. Don't you want to train the actual adults? Lugash cannot teach adults. They know how to stand up for themselves. Plus anyone over the age of 12 is too old for sports, says experts in field. Namely Lugash. Come, let us train in secret. So no one can hear you crying. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Games Pt. 3[edit]

After completing Springfield Games Pt. 2: These 12 events are not going to be easy! Especially for a town so lazy it has a drive-thru gym... however that works. I refuse to compete in anything other than a kilt. And I'm not wearing a cup either. Will there be any drug testing in these Springfield Games? I'm asking for a friend. I'm excused from training – I have a note from my mother. She says I'm already a failure, so technically I can't win. Adults are weak! Like babies! That is why Lugash only trains toddlers to tweens! Now to electrify my students with inspiration, and this cattle prod. Task: Make Lisa Encourage Adults to Start Training (3h, Springfield Elementary Task: Collect Participation Ribbons [x32] Wow, things are really starting to come together. We have sports, athletes, uniforms, but I can't help but feeling like I'm forgetting something... You forgot the real reason why we have a Springfield Games at all! Overpriced merchandise to sell to tourists! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Games Pt. 4[edit]

After completing Springfield Games Pt. 3: Dad, you were selected by the town to light the Springfield Games flame. That's so sweet. They must love me. The torch is a flaming tire from the Tire Fire. And the contest was 'Nominate the Person Dumb Enough to Accept This Honor.' And they chose me over Cletus. I'm so touched. Task: Make Homer Light the Games Cauldron (3h, Springfield Games Cauldron Task: Collect Participation Ribbons [x40] Oh God. I almost died! We told you about the flaming tire. But nobody warned me about all the walking! There were stairs too! STAIRS! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Games Pt. 5[edit]

After completing Springfield Games Pt. 4: Now that the flame is lit I hereby declare that the Springfield Games have begun! The events will be: Tug of War, then a Sack-Race... Followed by Shin-Kicking... Footvolley... And Eukonkanto... Chess boxing... Cheese rolling... Listening to this list better be an event. Cause I'm exhausted. Task: Make Lisa Explain the Dodecathlon Rules (3h, Springfield Elementary Task: Collect Participation Ribbons [x48] This event *gasp*won't end! How many things are we *pant*supposed to do!? It's a dodecathlon! Twelve *pant*events. I can't go on... None of these *hic*bottles have beer in them. What is this clear *pant*tasteless liquid? I haven't even fired the starter pistol. All you've done is walked from the locker room to the gym. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Games Pt. 6[edit]

After completing Springfield Games Pt. 5: The Springfield Games are a disaster! Why did I assume this town was in good enough shape to compete in any athletic event, let alone 12! It's not a complete disaster. There's still one event left! Go-Karts! Of course. We'll open up the race to the adults. Now is your chance, children. Prove to adults that you're not just the future, but also the present! Your birth crushed their dreams, now let your Go-Karts crush their bodies! Task: Make Quimby Watch the Go-Kart Races (3h, Go-Kart Track Task: Collect Participation Ribbons [x56] The winner of the Go-Kart Race, and the Springfield Games is Bart... Followed by Martin, Milhouse, and then Nelson! You see! Suffering breeds success, much like Lugash breeds snapping turtles. I am a man of many passions. Congratulations boys. Here are your prizes – gift cards! You would have had medals but medal-smithing was the 11th Dodecathalon event and no one came close to finishing. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Go-Kart Racing[edit]

After tapping on Go-Kart Track: Fixing children's Go-Kart Races. This is almost as low as when we held that baby's nose hostage for weeks. You there, you look like a smart lad. You're going to throw this race in the third lap. That's cheating! I refuse. It's man's code of ethics that separates us from the animals. Do it or I'll break your legs. Caving on your principles out of fear is another thing that separates us from the animals. Task: Place a Bet on a Go-Kart Race I'm glad you came around to my way of thinking, kid. I didn't mean to lose! I thought I was sure to win with trigonometry on my side. I guess math isn't the steroid I thought it was. Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night. For me, it's a white noise machine. Quest reward: 100 and 10

A Prickly Obsession[edit]

A Prickly Obsession Pt. 1[edit]

After completing : Of course! We need merch! And we need the best, most popular merch there is! A Pin Stand! Are you sure, Lis? Remember what happened last time you collected pins? I may have lost control last time, tarnished my dignity, and pawned that necklace Mom gave me. But I'm all better. If I was in AA, I'd have a ten year pin by now! Oh man, I want that AA pin! System Message Fatov is somewhere in your town. Find and tap him to recieve a Springfield Games Pin. System Message Fatov will appear in your town every 3 hours. Tap him to get a Springfield Games Pin. Unlock them all and get Fatov in your Springfield! Task: Make Lisa Visit the Springfield Pin Stand (6s, Springfield Pin Stand) Quest reward: 100 and 10

A Prickly Obsession Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Look, Lisa! There's a Springy pin! That's the mascot I invented! I suppose it is. Maybe I should support my Dad. There's no harm in buying one, is there? Well no one answered my largely rhetorical question, so I'll buy it! Task: Make Lisa Buy the Springy Pin (6s, Springfield Pin Stand This Springy pin is so shiny, so sparkly, so... lonely! Maybe I'll get one more. Hey, this one's about skiing. It's called The Slippery Slope. Task: Make Lisa Buy Just One More Pin (6s, Springfield Pin Stand) Quest reward: 100 and 10

A Prickly Obsession Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Just look at all these pins. But I can still see a little bit of shirt. Just a few more, for purely aesthetic reasons, and it will be a perfect collection. I don't like this at all. This reminds me of last time... You were playing sax on the street corner, just to get one more taste of sweet, sweet pin. I don't want you to sully jazz's reputation with something like addiction. Mom, I'm totally in control. Now on an unrelated note, can you give me a ride to underneath the bridge? Task: Make Lisa Play Sax for Pins (3h) Note: the job is in Pin Collector Lisa's job list Lisa, this is an intervention. We have all prepared letters to inform you how your pin collecting has hurt us. Number 1, I had to write a letter. Number 2, paper cut. No, wait, that's just ketchup. You're right! I thought I was smart enough to stop myself but clearly I wasn't. Maybe you can use this experience for good, help others with the same problem. Number 3, I'm not done with my list of numbers yet. System Message Have Lisa complete the job "Play Sax for Pins" to obtain additional Pins for your collection. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Premium gameplay[edit]

Half-Pipe[edit]

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark: Gnarly! We've finally got a half-pipe! I can't believe this took so long. I tried, believe me. Piece of advice, don't try to cut corners when building a half pipe. Because it's supposed to be perfectly round. I would shred, but I forgot my board at home... or at work. I guess I forgot where I forgot my board. Task: Make Bart Do Tricks on the Half-Pipe (3h, Half-Pipe) That was awesome, little dude. Have you ever considered taking it to the next level? Going pro? It's crossed my mind. No man, I meant in this game. I'm bored of this update. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Mystery Locker Promo[edit]

After completing Springfield Games Pt. 1 and tapping on Skinner's exclamation mark: These abandoned lockers will make a great capsule hotel for visiting Japanese businessmen, clown families, and the just plain broke. We'll make a wee fortune during the Springfield Games. ACK! What is that stench? Don't look inside. I can't risk another suffocated nerd on my record. Why don't ye sell 'em off, like on those TV shows? One man's trash is another man's legal liability. System Message The other lockers are actually full of fantastic prizes! Purchase a Mystery Locker in the store and get one of 5 specially selected sports items.

Cristo of Springfield[edit]

After completing Springfield Games Pt. 3: The dodecathlon participants seem even less motivated than I'd thought they'd be. That's because they haven't been properly encouraged. There's nothing more inspiring than a giant statue of Jesus watching and judging you. There's a reason the collection plate is so full on Sundays. Ahh, I already fail Jesus at church, work, and home. Why do I have to fail in front of him here too?
