Gameplay[edit]

The Devil and the FCC[edit]

The Devil and the FCC Pt. 1[edit]

Ugh! Not another TV sitcom featuring a fat guy who sits on the couch all day! Homer, the power's been out all morning. Then what have I been sitting on the couch watching all day? Your reflection. Man, I've really let myself go. Well, the easiest way out of any hole is through the bottom. Marge, bacon me! No power means no stove means no bacon. NO BACON?! Task: Make Homer Suffer Without Bacon (3m, Simpson House) Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Devil and the FCC Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Hey, Dad, come quick! Mr. Burns still has power! Literally or figuratively? Don't answer, just get me my angry mob pants. You lost your angry mob pants during yesterday's angry mob. Then get me my church pants. I'm usually pretty angry there too. Task: Make Springfielders Round Up into an Angry Mob (Simpson House) [x5, 3m] After job end: Hey, Burns, how come you get power while the rest... most importantly me... don't? It's not fair! We're living like backwoods deadbeats! No offence, Cletus. None taken... or understood. Springfield Nuclear is now offering "premium service" where VIP clients get access to power before the rest of you. But there will still be plenty to go around for the poor. Like lifeboats on the Titanic. Or scholarship positions at prestigious universities. System Message Tune into this week's Simpsons to see the Henry Ford of now times... Elon Musk! Sunday 8/7 central on FOX. System Message The electric car is now available in the store. After tapping OK it takes you to the Decorations menu where the Electric cars are in view. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Devil and the FCC Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: I can stand hundreds of years of British oppression, for being mocked as a foreigner, for making minimum wage to clean up kids' puke... ...but Willie cannot stand un-microwaved burritos! Task: Reach Level 10 and Build Willie's Shack Task: Make Willie Crate a Business Plan (3m, Willie's Shack) Quest reward: 100 and 10 System Message Pick up the Manual Power Generator to get Slave Labor Willie! This appears: After tapping OK it takes you to the Characters menu where "Manual Power Generator" is in yellow text.

The Devil and the FCC Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: This is awful. Just think what these blackouts are doing to the moth community! What will they flock to? Mr. Burns's? His place is lit up like a Christmas tree. And his Christmas tree is lit up like some sort of SUPER Christmas tree! Kinda early to have it out though, if you ask me. Willie is right. We need to do something. And while I'm not accustomed to backbreaking labor... I am accustomed to committees, bureaucracy, and red tape! Task: Make Lisa Form a Committee (12h, Simpson House) Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Devil and the FCC Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Sir, a group headed by an eight year old girl has issued a stern letter in favor of power grid neutrality. Incinerate the letter and send her the usual response. But sir, she's a minor. You're right. Send her a pony head instead. Task: Reach Level 11 and Build Control Building Task: Make Springfielders Protest Burns' Premium Service [x5] (8h, Control Building) Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Devil and the FCC Pt. 6[edit]

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: So young lady, does your organization hold any actual authority? Not legal authority, but considerable moral and ethical authority. A simple no would suffice. So unless you are here with a business proposal, I'm afraid I'm going to have to release the hounds. They've got new electrified collars and very, very long extension cords. A business proposal, hmm... what's nuclear power's biggest competitors? Giant radioactive monsters that crawl out of the ocean and attack our cities? No, the oil industry! And I know just the way to drive them out of Springfield... More giant radioactive monsters? No, the electric car. All you have to do is promise cheap electricity to everyone who buys one. You win AND the environment wins. Is there any way to make it just me that wins? I don't know... You'd have to work pretty hard to pollute the earth more than the oil companies. Then I'll do it! This appears: After tapping "OK": Task: Make Burns Promote the Electric Car (24h, Control Building) Quest reward: 100 and 10

He's Got the Power![edit]

He's Got the Power! Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Willie's exclamation mark: That Mr. Burns really scalds me haggis! I know, but what choice do we have? His plant is the only source of power in town. There's one source of power Mr. Burns doesn't have control over -- the human spirit! By which I mean witchcraft. It's just like my pa used to say, "When life gives you lemons, squeeze them into your open wounds, you sissy boy. You're the reason why your mother left. Sweet dreams, son." Task: Make Slave Labor Willie Generate Electricity (24h, Manual Power Generator) Quest reward: 100 and 10

He's Got the Power! Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Willie's exclamation mark: Ach! So was I able to man-power-up the town? Um... I think I saw a light bulb flicker. It could have been a firefly, though. Sounds like a job well done! Now to celebrate with a hearty meal. Task: Make Willie Subsist on Gruel (4h) Quest reward: 100 and 10

The More Things Change, The More They Stay the Same[edit]

After buying an Electric Car: Ooh, an electric car! This beautifully designed feat of engineering is really going to change things around here. Ehnn... how fast does it drive? I don't know. It doesn't actually go anywhere... So it's not going to change anything, is it? Just like the real electric car.
