Dialogue

Pt. 1

After tapping on Krusty's exclamation mark Get me my lawyer! The Krustyland Shuttle has an advertisement for a new feature called "Princess Penelope's Palace". I never ordered that! Remember when you were going to marry Princess Penelope? Well, in your prenup you gave her 50% of Krustyland. And now she wants control. But I never even married her! Turns out "marriage" wasn't a requirement. I guess I did a pretty bad job negotiating that prenup. But I was in love with love! I hope you at least got me something in return. She agreed to wait until you reached age 70 to get the remaining half. Good work. My doctor says there's no way I'm living past 63. Princess Penelope also wishes to expand the appeal of the Park with a couple of new "family friendly" attractions. Think more balloon, less beer. What?! She's pretty demanding for a 27 year old non-ex-wife in an overpriced dollar store costume. And she'll also need you to build a giant wheel in her honor. OH FOR THE LOVE OF... Task: "Place Balloons" (x2). Task: "Reach Level 43 and Build Krusty's Giant Wheel". It takes 24 hours. Place: Balloons KL Build: Krusty's Giant Wheel New Character: Princess Penelope Quest reward: 20 and 10

Pt. 2

After tapping on Krusty's exclamation mark I was in love with Princess Penelope, and she dumped me like poop from a cruise ship. She can have her stupid "palace", but I never want to see her face again. Wait, what the hell is that? We're projecting her giant face on low-flying clouds. Turn it off! It's doubled park attendance. Turn it on! Task: "Send Park Goers to Ride Krusty's Giant Wheel" (x10). The job takes place at Krusty's Giant Wheel and takes 2 hours. Quest reward: 20 and 10

Characters that can be sent on the task are Krustyland Goers (excluding Krusty).

Pt. 3

After tapping on Princess Penelope's exclamation mark Hello, Krusty. I hope you're not still mad I broke off our relationship. Actually, it's real nice to see you. And I gotta say you've really fixed up this piece of crap theme park. Well, I just planted some flowers around the crap pieces. Oh, I love flowers. Lotus blossoms, opium poppies, 'shrooms. They're flowers, right? Let's plant some together. And afterwards I'll stroke your brow and sing you your favorite song. "You're a Cuddly Wuddly Krusty"? Oh boy! Task: "Place some Krustyland Flowers" (x10). Task: "Make Princess Penelope Play a Princess Song". The job takes 8 hours. Place: Krustyland Flowers Quest reward: 20 and 10

Pt. 4

After tapping on Princess Penelope's exclamation mark Krusty, we need to talk. Can we go somewhere quiet and safe? Not in Krustyland. Let's take a ride on the giant wheel. At least we'll be above the never-ending smell of churros. Actually, I installed churro scent nozzles in every car on the giant wheel. Half the park income comes from churros. Interesting fact. Task: "Make Penelope and Krusty Take a Ride on Krusty's Giant Wheel". The job takes place at Krusty's Giant Wheel and takes 12 hours. Quest reward: 20 and 10

Pt. 5

After tapping on Krusty's exclamation mark So why'd you ask me on that rickety death ride, the park's safest and most modern attraction? I had something dramatic to tell you, but I was a little nervous! Well, spit it out! We have a son! A son?! Glurg. Task: "Make Krusty Recover from a small Heart Attack". The job takes place at the Krustyland Entrance and takes 12 hours. I named him after you and me: Shmoikel Mountbatten Hapsburg Hohenzollern Mulan Pocahontas Well, at least there won't be any other kids with the same name in his kindergarten class. Oh, he's not in kindergarten. He's 25. But you're only 27. How is that possible? I dunno. Maybe he didn't play enough freemium mobile games. Nothing keeps you young like playing freemium mobile games. That's extremely unlikely. Well, if anyone has another explanation, tweet it to #TappedOutShmoikel. If we think your idea is funny, we might give you something special, like, I don't know, a GAZILLION donuts! Fat chance! Anyway, let's assume we've got a grown-up son and get on with the story. Quest reward: 20 and 10

Pt. 6

After tapping on Krusty's exclamation mark So what's this son of mine like, anyway? He's obese, a high school dropout, and has recurring jaundice. He spends his days playing weird board games with his friends and he likes to kiss me on the lips. *groan* When women tell me they've had my secret baby, they never say "and he's a genius". He just needs someone to give him a job with some real responsibility. Of course, if you did that he'd probably be so busy you'd never see him. You had me at "never see him"! ...That's why I've decided we should put him in charge of Krustyland! Glurg! Task: "Make Krusty Recover from a small Heart Attack". The job takes place at the Krustyland Entrance and takes 12 hours. Quest reward: 20 and 10

Pt. 7

After tapping on Krusty's exclamation mark As long as I own half of Krustyland, I'm not putting some kid in charge. This is a job for a sensible adult who can make reasoned, mature decisions. Then how about we play a hand of poker. Winner gets all of Krustyland. A crazy gamble? Done. Task: "Build the Duff Pavilion". Task: "Make Krusty and Princess Penelope Play Poker". The job takes place at the Duff Pavilion and takes 12 hours. I can't believe I lost. That's because "three of the same color" isn't a poker hand. Don't tell the monkey that. It's the only way I ever beat him. Well, you own all the park now. Have fun with it. You'll be the first person who ever did. Quest reward: 20 and 10

Pt. 8

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark Wow, I love what Krusty's son has done with Krustyland. Especially for a guy that never appears. It's so clean! He's even added a private room for nursing mothers, instead of that bench next to where guys line up to get into the men's toilet. I like how instead of sullen teens manning the food kiosks, it's now disengaged hipsters. Come on! Princess Penelope is giving a free concert at Sleeping Itchy's Castle. I'm gonna whip myself into a princess frenzy and then go nuts at the Enchanted Cave of Tie-In Merchandise. Task: "Make Marge and Lisa Go to a Princess Penelope Concert". The job takes place at Sleeping Itchy's Castle and takes 12 hours. Task: "Make Princess Penelope Perform a Concert". The job takes place at Sleeping Itchy's Castle and takes 12 hours. If Sherri & Terri is owned: Task: "Make Sherri & Terri Go to a Princess Penelope Concert". The job takes place at Sleeping Itchy's Castle and takes 12 hours. Quest reward: 20 and 10

Pt. 9

After tapping on Marge's exclamation mark Isn't this nice? Princess Penelope is playing guitar and singing in a carriage. Wait. Where did that driving beat drop from? Who are all those male dancers? Why is she ripping off her dress? She's Alaska Nebraska-ing her kid-friendly image! Task: "Make Marge Cover Lisa's Eyes". The job takes place at Sleeping Itchy's Castle and takes 12 hours. Task: "Make Lisa Struggle To Peek". The job takes place at Sleeping Itchy's Castle and takes 12 hours. Quest reward: 20 and 10

Pt. 10

After tapping on Krusty's exclamation mark I gotta say, our kid's done a great job with Krustyland. We learned a valuable lesson about parenting too. Yeah. Stay out of the picture for 25 years, then give them everything you own, and things will be fine. It worked for Rupert Murdoch. Will I ever actually get to see my 25 year old son? No, Krusty. He's returned to where he came from: the Land of People Who Are Only Needed for Plot Points. It's next to MacGuffin Island. You know. I've reserved the penthouse at the Krustyland Hotel. It comes with two white tigers. Would you like to be the third...? Shmlug Task: "Make Krusty Recover from a small Heart Attack". The job takes place at the Krustyland Entrance and takes 12 hours. Quest reward: 1,400 and 700 Message You unlocked a new job for Princess Penelope! You can now send her to Sleep in the Penthouse With White Tigers.
