The Simpsons: Tapped Out Superheroes content update was released on February 18, 2015, under a new app version 4.13.0. This event follows on from the hint players were receiving Fallout Boy in Valentine's Day 2015. There will be three prize tracks in this event, like Halloween 2014. The event is split into four issues, theretically five with a "Crossover" planned. There will also be crafting enabled at the Android's Dungeon, and Personal Prizes for each issue. The event will end on March 31, 2015.

The premise of the event is Criminals invading Springfield. Issue One of the event began on February 17, 2015 at 8am (GMT). Issue Two will begin on February 22 at 8am, Issue Three on March 10 at 8am, the "Crossover" starts on March 23 at 9am, Issue Four begins March 24 at 8am, and the event ends March 31 at 8am.

Carbon Rods, Pie Bombs and Freeze Rays are the event currency. Also changed in this event is the fact there is a new dialogue format and ambient music. This event also adds the first (non-permanent, however) cutscene since the game's launch.

Event features

Upgrading

The Superior Squad HQ can be upgraded for larger task payouts and a larger Criminal-tap radius. You can use Arbitrarium, which can be collected in various ways after "A New Hero Rises Pt. 1". Upgrading is not necessary, but is to complete both quests in the mini-questline "Superior-ior Squad HQ". Fireworks and a brief soundtrack happen when levelling up.

• 

  The menu that displays when tapping on Superior Squad HQ. This building is Level 21.

• 

  The panel showing what Arbitrarium does.

• 

  You can also upgrade with donuts. 1 Arbitarium is approximately 3.

Superior Squad HQ rewards

At Level 0, the reward is 0 Carbon Rods every 4 hours. Then, once you level up to 1, it is 35 Carbon Rods every 4 hours. Every time you upgrade, there are 10 more Carbon Rods rewarded per 4 hours. For example, at Level 7 you have 95 Carbon Rods/4 hours.

Tasks that reward event currency

Friend Actions

In a friends' town, you can do SIX daily actions, as opposed to the usual three. Three of them are tapping Criminals, while the other are reporting crimes, which can be done by tapping on the phone icon above all buildings. Only the latter rewards cash, while all reward Carbon Rods.

After tapping on Spied-on Buildings, the yellow logo will disappear and a message will pop up saying "Spied by [player name]". Spied-on Buildings will also have their animations running while the yellow logo is above it.

Action Friend reward (each) Own town reward Capturing Criminals 3 Carbon Rods (plus Cash, XP, Friend Points (if not completed all levels)/chance of a Donut (if completed all levels) 15 Carbon Rods Reporting Crimes 1 Carbon Rod 3 Carbon Rods/4 (Level 5 HQ+)

• 

  What Other Springfield looks like.

• 

  Buildings with the Spied-On logo above it. This means that a friend has done the Daily Action "Reporting Crimes" on that building.

Device notifications

• "Hurry! [player name] has reported a crime in your Springfield! Heed the call to action quickly and earn more rewards!" when a friend does the "Reporting Crimes" action on a building in your town.

Criminals

Criminals first appear in towns during the quest "A New Hero Rises Pt. 1". You tap on them to collect Carbon Rods, which will give out 15 each time, and have a chance to dispense of Arbitrarium, which is used to level up Superior Squad HQ.

• 

  A Criminal in-action

• 

  An idle Criminal

Felons

A guide to Felons (which appears after completing "Montgomery Burns State Prison Pt. 2".)

Felons are like Criminals, but can only be cleared using Superhero costumes for characters/Fallout Boy obtained in the event during the quest: "Montgomery Burns State Prison Pt. 2". Burns State Prison spawns 1 Felon every 8 hours, and one upon building. Felons also have three hearts, meaning the task must be done three times on one Felon to defeat it. Only 5 Felons can be in one town at a time.

It costs 100 to rush the reward.

Task: "Fight Felon" Superhero Duration Reward 1 Heart Down 2 Hearts Down 3 Hearts Down Plopper 3h 25 Carbon Rods 75 Carbon Rods 150 Carbon Rods Fruit-Bat-Man Fallout Boy 4h Pie Man

"Montgomery Burns State Prison Pt. 2" unlocks most of the Felon's features. After the quest pops up in the taskbook:

• 

  New speech bubbles appear above their heads

• Tapped Out Felon Icon.png

  The icon in the top-right corner, which leads to ->

• 

  This is a Felon's menu. In this case, Pie Man and Fallout Boy are engaged with other tasks, and Plopper has not been bought from The Store.

• 

  This is what happens to a Felon's menu when in-battle.

When the task "In Battle" by a Felon is finished, the game will send a notification to the device reading "Felon has finished In Battle." After one heart is depleted, an animation of a breaking heart will appear above the Felon's head.

There is also a Glitch involving the questline and the felons.
