The Decoration Inflation

The Decoration Inflation Pt. 1

After the user logs in on December 8th: Dad, look! Mister Flanders' Christmas decorations are shining brighter than ever this year! I'm sure they're just his normal junky-- Deck my halls with boughs of holly!! Who does he think he is, making our house look crappy by comparison?! I'll show him! Dad, I don't think that was Mister Flanders' intention. Power up my power tools! ‘Cause I'm powerful mad! Task: Make Homer Decorate His House (60s, Simpson House) Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Decoration Inflation Pt. 2

Snow Big Deal

Snow Big Deal

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: I've got the best decoration idea yet! What's more Christmas-y than a snowman? How ‘bout a giant snowman? You're right! Anything supersized is better! Let's do that! Dad, building a giant snowman is a much greater architectural challenge than it might seem. How hard could it be? I find the biggest carrot in the world for a nose, and the rest is downhill. Task: Place the Best Snowman Ever Task: Make Homer Pile Snow (60s, Best Snowman Ever) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Effigy in White Pt. 1

After completing Snow Big Deal: Homer, all I see is a pile of snow and no man. Just wait ‘til its stick arms are stuck, and its coal eyes are popped. Well, right now your snowman looks like a much bigger snowman took a crap. I'd have chosen different words, but I agree with Bart. Your volunteers don't seem to know what they're doing. One group seems to be undoing all the work of the other. And there's a third group that's just eating snow... Task: Upgrade the "Best Snowman Ever" to Level 2 Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Effigy in White Pt. 2

After completing Effigy in White Pt. 1: Dad? I don't think this snowman is turning out the way you planned. Plan? There is no plan, honey. That's my brilliant plan. Plus I'm “crowdsourcing” all the hard work. Which is a nice word for taking advantage of people. And in the end, if it doesn't work out, I can just walk away as if it never happened. Thank you, “crowdsourcing!” Task: Upgrade the "Best Snowman Ever" to Level 3 Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Effigy in White Pt. 3

After completing Effigy in White Pt. 2: See, Lisa, there's nothing to worry about. I don't know. Its structural integrity concerns me. And I'm pretty sure I've seen at least one kid wedged in the foundation. Actually, there's four. Kids make good cornerstones. Task: Upgrade the "Best Snowman Ever" to Level 4 Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Effigy in White Pt. 4

After completing Effigy in White Pt. 3: Dad, I'm going to ask you to hang up your snow shovel before the whole snowman structure collapses and buries us all. It's only happened twice and everyone's still here… maybe I should take a headcount. Anyway, don't worry. I rounded up some eggheads and threatened them into helping us finish. Well, I don't approve of bullying… but it's comforting knowing eggheads are on the job. Task: Upgrade the "Best Snowman Ever" to Level 5 I think we've done it, Dad! It's exactly like my dream. Except for the base, the body, and the top part that was s'posed to look like Frankenstein. My dream was actually a nightmare. It really is the best snowman ever. And thanks to my advanced cryo-technology, it won't even melt in summer! Though it may eventually come to life and wipe out all of earth. Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Effigy in White Pt. 5

After completing Effigy in White Pt. 4: Task: Make Homer Admire His Creation (1h, Best Snowman Ever) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

A House Made With Hands

A House Made With Hands

After tapping on Ned's exclamation mark: Homer's snow man is giving me the holiday get-up-and-go man. That packed pile of fluffy stuff makes this Neddy ready to bake up some similar-sized gingerbread-y! Sayin' all that took the wind out of my sails! Task: Place the Gingerbread Mansion Task: Make Ned Think Big (4h, Gingerbread Mansion) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 1

After completing A House Made With Hands: People are helping out in droves, bringin' ginger loaves for our giant gingerbread house! Just to be truthful… “giant” means “humble” and “unassuming.” After all, honesty and modesty are the Christian way… except when we're skirting building codes for the Church. Task: Upgrade the Gingerbread Mansion to Level 2 Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 2

After completing Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 1: Slight change of plans, people. I've thrown out the old set of blueprints and crafted a new set all in red. ‘Cause Ned Flanders does not work “blue!” Task: Upgrade the Gingerbread Mansion to Level 3 Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 3

After completing Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 2: A gingerbread house built in God's glory! I'll bet He'd want a few more sugary shrines, a couple Turkish Taffy turrets and a Fiddle-Faddle foyer! Let's get that eternal icing fountain flowing, in his name's sake! Amen. Task: Upgrade the Gingerbread Mansion to Level 4 Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 4

After completing Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 3: Bring in more icing to support the upper floors. Ginger snap, snap! I want that gumdrop driveway done dad gum good! Don't make me break out the liquorice whips! Daddy's sniffed too many chocolate chips. Don't harsh his marshmallow, little dude. It's working fine for me. Task: Upgrade the Gingerbread Mansion to Level 5 My head is finally clearing now that I'm getting a little non-confectioned air. I got more carried away than a cross on the road to Calvary! Our germane gingerbread house turned out to be a Toblerone Tower of Babel! Ned, I don't think you went that far. You weren't there when I added the fold-out, fudge, rooftop, root beer tennis court…) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 5

After completing Can't Catch Me I'm the GingerNed Man Pt. 4: Task: Make Ned Pray Away His Sin of Pride (1h, Gingerbread Mansion) System Message Way to go! You've finished the main quest line.

Gonna Find Out Who's Naughty or Nice

Gonna Find Out Who's Naughty or Nice Pt. 1

After completing Snow Big Deal and tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: It's so wonderful seeing people working together like this. It really reaffirms my faith in humanity. Oh, yeah, everyone's a big, happy family. Dad was about to tear Flanders a new one just yesterday... Are you implying that humankind lacks a basic underlying bond of community? Give humanity a chance to screw their neighbor and I guarantee they'll take it. Why do I mess with Todd Flanders? Because I can. And because lotsa times I'm a jerk. Let's put your theory to the test with a little holiday-themed experiment. Task: Drop a Present in a Friend's Town Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Gonna Find Out Who's Naughty or Nice Pt. 2

After completing Gonna Find Out Who's Naughty or Nice Pt. 1: System Message It's looks like a present has been delivered to your town! Open it now and decide if you'll be Naughty or Nice... Task: Open a Present in Your Own Town Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Act 2 Gameplay

To view Act 2 Gameplay, click "show":

An Unwanted Kiss After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Now that we've done so much towards building community spirit, festive hats don't seem to cut it. I have a joyful, jolly, harmless, although deadly, idea. Spicy Thai food that went bad? No, Dad, Mistletoe. In Norse mythology, Mistletoe is Baldur's Achilles heel. It's the only thing that Frigg, his mother, didn't protect him from, and it ends up killing him. It's said that her tears became the berries of the plant, and that the mistletoe would never again be used as a weapon and that she would place a kiss on anyone who passed underneath. That is so romantic. Any kisses left for this handsome fellow, my beloved Frigg? I never quote my brother but in this case... "Eat my shorts," Milhouse. Task: Tap Merrymakers to Collect Mistletoe [x6] Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 Once In Royal Quimby's City Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 1 After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: So what do we want to work on next? How ‘bout an exotic petting zoo? People love poking animals in a place where they can't poke back. The price of reindeer meat drops around the holidays so I was thinking of a food truck. Krusty Burgers could cash in on some cheap cuts of Comet and Cupid. Which one do we do first? Of course I object to anything harming reindeer. I already have a call in to OSHA regarding Santa working the poor things all Christmas day and night. We'd better do the Exotic Petting Zoo thing first. Task: Make Moe Design a Zoo Logo (30s, Moe's Tavern) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 2 After tapping on Moe's exclamation mark: Er, uh, Moe, you're going to need an exotic importation license. I never needed one before when I filled my joint with vermin. This is an extra fee for the, er, Exotic Waste Disposal levy. You've got city fees coming and going! Mostly for going. Task: Place Moe's Exotic Petting Zoo Task: Make Willie Shovel Dung (60s, Exotic Petting Zoo) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 The Animal Within Pt. 1 After completing Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 2: First thing an exotic petting zoo needs is a stage where they can prance around. And, er… chairs right up against the stage for the best views. Good idea. Then the pets can climb right down onto kids' laps. ...and they can stuff their dollar bills into their costumes. Wait, what? Are you thinkin' this is exotic ladies?! This is an exotic ANIMAL petting zoo. Sorry. When I hear “exotic” and “petting” my mind goes where any crummy mayor's would. Task: Upgrade "Exotic Petting Zoo" to Level 2 Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 The Animal Within Pt. 2 After completing The Animal Within Pt. 1: Okay, so it turns out "exotic animals" are also "very hard to get animals." We gotta make do with what we got, which ain't much. Maybe you could make Springfield's regular animals into special ones? I think you're on to something, Barn. I believe it technically counts as exotic if I order paint and stick-on parts from overseas! Task: Upgrade "Exotic Petting Zoo" to Level 3 Oooh. Cute little fishy wants to be petted! Kid, don't get too close to this one, it's an... ... ... electric eel. Seriously, don't touch it. This thing could kill you, you know. Little fishy makes me all sparkly! More sparkles! ... And he did it again... Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 3 After completing The Animal Within Pt. 1: Krusty the Clown, your permits have arrived. So that's a food service permit, a cabaret permit, oversized-vehicle parking permit, hot equipment registry permit… …cold equipment registry permit, a processing fee permit, municipal and non-municipal operating permits, oxygen consumption permit… Are you sure I don't need a permit to carry all these permits? That's covered by your administration of city administration permit. Task: Place Krusty's Reindeer Burger Truck Task: Make Krusty Borrow from The Till (10h, Reindeer Burger Truck) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 Holiday Mystery Meat Pt. 1 After completing Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 3: Okay, so I need reindeer meat. Nothing but top quality will do. But I s'pose I could get away with medium quality… Then again, there's no taste difference between medium and bottom quality… What's the quality below “bottom?” That's Krusty Reindeer Burger level quality! Task: Upgrade "Reindeer Burger Truck" to Level 2 Wait. Reindeer don't have wings?! How do they make Santa's sleigh fly? And how are you gonna make Buffalo-style Reindeer Hot Wings outta nothin'? Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 Holiday Mystery Meat Pt. 2 After completing Holiday Mystery Meat Pt. 1: Where is all the reindeer meat? As it turns out, we live in an area that doesn't support the reindeer species. But we DO live in an area where it rains on deer. So let's do that! Go sit in the forest, wait for rain, then it's BLAM-BLAM time! Task: Upgrade "Reindeer Burger Truck" to Level 3 I should apply this kind of meat procurement to every type of Krusty Burger. These burgers cost less than the paper wrappers I serve them in.) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 4 After completing Holiday Mystery Meat Pt. 1 and The Animal Within Pt. 2: This whole construction plan is a circus. And I'm not even facetiously referring to the three-ring gathering of dubious animals. As Angry Dad famously said in Issue #6: "Why you... #%@*&%!!@# @#$$%$#@#$$#%$#@#$ $#%$##%&&&@&!!" Task: Build the Fortress of Lonelitude Task: Make Comic Book Guy Spend Friday Night Alone (10h, Fortress of Lonelitude) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 No Man is a Fortress Pt. 1 After completing Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 4: The plan for my fortress calls for a classic recreation of the 1960's revisionist style. Would that be the hologram cover revisionist style, or the chromium? What kind of question is that?! Hologram, of course! Then which entry way are we going with? Obvious front, secret back, or the poorly received "flip-top" version? Task: Upgrade "Fortress of Lonelitude" to Level 2 Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 No Man is a Fortress Pt. 2 After completing No Man is a Fortress Pt. 1: This project is driving me mad! So many self-styled "enthusiasts!" Why can't all people just agree with me! This Fortress of Lonelitude is made for one very large man – me! And I intend to keep it that way! Everyone out! Task: Upgrade "Fortress of Lonelitude" to Level 3 This Fortress of Lonelitude is more lonely than I thought. There's only one solution… Dive into my cosplay closet for Zan and Jayna – Justice League's Exxorian Wonder Twins! Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 5 After completing No Man is a Fortress Pt. 1 and Holiday Mystery Meat Pt. 2: Dang, all this building sure is thirsty work. What we needs is a sip of some downhome, backwoods git-up-n-go juice! Does alcohol really need to be a part of the holidays? What would Christmas morn be without firin' off a double-barrel shotgun and guzzlin' down double-barrel moonshine? Task: Place Cletus' Moonshine Shack Task: Make Cletus Sample the Goods (10h, Moonshine Shack) Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10 The Overproof of the Pudding Pt. 1 After completing Once In Royal Quimby's City Pt. 5: We got ourselves a holy hooch hut that's perfect for most folks during this festive season.

The White Elephant in the Room

The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 1

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Aww, all we got in that present was some useless festive crap? My research indicates that 98% of all holiday gift giving is: your words--“useless festive crap.” Hoyvin-glayvin!--My words. And you re-gift that crap and give it to the people you like the least. Just ask Lisa. Might I propose converting “unnecessary” atoms into “valuable” atoms using a monstrous machine made “shopping mall pretty?” Task: Build Things Unnecessary Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 2

After completing The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 1: Ooh, look at all the wonderful knickknacks! "Things Unnecessary" is my kind of store! To be completely upfront without exposing all truths, the “store” is a user-friendly product interface for an advanced atomic rearrangement system. So I can't buy knickknacks? Not exactly… but you CAN rearrange the atomic structure of desired knickknacks, converting them into less useless items. As long as you've got free giftwrapping, I'm in! Task: Collect Christmas Baubles by Tapping Merrymakers [x40] Task: Collect Christmas Bows by Playing Naughty Or Nice [x20] Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 3 (Act 1)

After completing The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 2: Bart, it's cold. Where are you going without your hat? God didn't give me nine hair spikes to keep 'em covered up. Besides, hats are for lamewads. You got a problem with hats? I danced in my first oil gusher in a hat! My hat says I'm American and that I belong... since my proper documentation is still tied up in the courts. Did someone say hats? And if so, I want to join in! See what happens when you start talking about hats! Task: Craft & Place The Wooly Bully Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 3 (Act 2)

After completing The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 2: Homer, let's try to get a big and beautiful Christmas tree this year for the kids. Whatever... I mean it, Homie. Last year the kids were very disappointed in you. You broke your promise. It's not my fault if the cute tree I brought back burst into flames. It wasn't cute... ...Nor is a tumbleweed a Christmas tree... Looked pretty christmas-y after I flocked it with fire extinguisher foam. Task: Craft & Place X-mas Trees Slightly Irregular Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 4

After completing The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 3: Hey, I put my festive junk in the thingy, and it hasn't rearranged atom one! There appears to be a chokepoint in the raw material supply line. The incoming value-to-product ratio is far too low. Homer it down, egghead! Waaay down. Hoyvin-glayvin-falaggle-nock! Simply put... we need more "festive stuff." I know this is the season of giving, but you can't have giving without taking… especially from Flanders. Task: Tap Merrymakers in a Friend's Town [x3] Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and 10

Festive Spontaneity... Scheduled

After completing The White Elephant in the Room Pt. 2 and tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: I love all this festivity! Makes me want to put down my bullet gun and pick up a glue gun. And I'd love to be stringin' garland rather than scrapin' up garlic string cheese from the gym floor. What's stopping you? Get out there and enjoy the holidays, fellas. Can I help? My pomposity has made it so none of the teams have picked me for anything. Sure! Let me just see if I can find jobs for everyone...
