Event Teaser.

"The tide of evil has receded and our heroes and villains can finally hang up cape, cowl, and spandex undies. With life returning to normal, what’s next for your town? A random set of summer sports? A visit from some D-list celebrities? An invasion by doppelgangers from another dimension? The arrival of a brand-new outlet mall? Only Time will tell! Sorry, I meant Tim, the guy we pay to write this stuff.
New characters, new buildings and new stories are coming soon, so stay tuned!"

―Event teaser on the App Store. The D-List celebrities one is only on Amazon Store.

"Black holes, donut holes and a scientist who rolls!

Professor Stephen Hawking has come to Springfield to take part in the town’s greatest scientific discovery since Blinky the three-eyed fish!
Join Professor Hawking as you explore the secrets of black holes, stop an army of robots, and listen to his lecture on string theory… probably shouldn’t have ended on that one… Featuring dimensionally different duplicates, futuristic architecture, and more!

Will you be able to save Springfield from science?"

―Event description on the App Store.
