Easter 2014 is the forty-ninth content update for The Simpsons: Tapped Out. It started on April 15, 2014 and ended on May 13, 2014. It was the first Easter-themed update of the game.
In your Springfield, you zap bunnies to earn blue or pink eggs. One bunny generates every five minutes, with a maximum of 40 bunnies in your town at one time. The Bunny Stunner is activated when you tap and hold, and it stuns any bunny within proximity of your finger. You can also get eggs in your friends' towns by tapping on their buildings. The first 30 taps give you 5 eggs per tap, the next 30 give you 4 eggs per tap, the next 30 give you 2 eggs per tap, and the remaining 180 taps give you 1 egg per tap.
There are three types of Easter boxes, blue, pink, and gold. Once you collect 500 eggs of a certain color, you receive an Easter box for that color. The blue and pink eggs come from the bunnies, while the gold eggs are prizes from the blue and pink Easter boxes.
Players of the update are divided into two groups, the pink group and the blue group. Those in the pink group receive a majority of pink eggs, with quests and tasks rewarding pink eggs. Those in the blue group receive a majority of blue eggs, with quests and tasks rewarding blue eggs. There is no gold group. The odds for a box depend on which group you are in.
Easter baskets can be obtained through donuts or by zapping bunnies. Once you place an Easter basket, a friend can place 100 eggs of one color (blue or pink) into that basket, and receive 50 eggs of the other color in exchange. A maximum of 400 eggs can be placed in a basket for exchange, and once that happens, the basket disappears. The owner of the basket will receive the 400 eggs placed in the basket. Baskets only work for one-way exchanges; blue to pink baskets only work in that direction, and vice-versa.
