The Simpsons: Tapped Out tasks you with making the ultimate version of TV’s most recognizable small town – Springfield. We know you’re all looking to turn your city into a cash grabbing, donut-heavy place of operations. This city building simulation is an addictive good time that will command the attention of economic friendly gamers. Here’s 10 tips, tricks and cheats for the game that will make your own version of Springfield the best one.

1. Tap 10 Times on Homer for Some Quick Unlockables

As a quick starter tip, make sure you tap on Homer to get his tasks list to come on the screen. After that happens, quickly tap on Homer 10 times to unlock 10 free donuts and a Jebediah Statue.

2. Choose The Appropriate Tasks for The Appropriate Characters

Managing your city and its denizens involves giving everyone the right jobs/duties. Imore.comprovided a few tips on choosing the right tasks for the right people:

When choosing tasks for your characters to perform, it’s good to be mindful of how long they take and what the reward is. Typically longer tasks come with a higher dollar and/or donut amount attached to them. It’s good to choose these tasks before you’re about to put the game down in order to let your characters achieve these while you’re away.

If you’re actively playing the game and building things out, it’s good to assign your characters to perform shorter tasks. The monetary amount may not be as much but you’ll get to interact with your character a lot more. Those little tasks can sometimes add up to decent amounts of cash or donuts rather fast too.

3. Tap on The XP/$ Symbols to Collect More Quickly

Your screen might get flooded with tons of money and experience symbols as your town becomes more fruitful. Instead of you having to tap on each symbol when trying to collect all the cash and XP, do this – tap on one XP/$ symbol, close your task book, wait 5-10 seconds and all the onscreen extra XP/cash will be collected.

4. Everything You Need to Know About the Conform-o-Meter

The Conform-o-Meter that lies on the bottom half of your screen holds some important info regarding the rankings for several stats, such as Indolence and Tree-hugging. Blog.Games.comexplained the purpose of that important meter:

Pay attention to the Conform-o-Meter found in the bottom left of your screen. The Conform-o-Meter ranks you according to eight categories; Indolence, Consumerism, Tree-hugging, Vanity, Obedience, Gluttony, Righteousness and Socialism. You can check on your current rankings as well as learn how to raise your ranking in each category by tapping on the Conform-o-Meter in the bottom right of your screen (The Stars). As you improve this rating you earn a % bonus to the Money and XP that you receive.

5. Donuts>Money

The in-game cash and donuts you can purchase helps you complete objectives much quicker and unlock new items. You’re much better off buying some donuts if you’re looking to be even quicker. Donuts allow you rush the completion of objectives, which then leads to even more extra cash. That cash comes in handy once you try to buy more items faster and gain more experience.
