The Simpsons: Tapped Out Moe's Ark content update/Gameplay

Wikisimpsons - The Simpsons Wiki

Act 1 Gameplay

We Stole a Zoo

We Stole a Zoo Pt. 1

After the user logs in on August 1st:
Marge It's a beautiful summer day and we have no family outing planned?!
Lisa You're right. There was nothing in any of our group texts or family calendar. Let’s come up with a plan!
Marge Why not do the thing every family does to pretend they still love being together... go to the zoo!
Bart Homer’s an ape but we don't have a zoo.
Marge Then there’s only one thing to do -- we must demand a zoo!
Task: Make Simpsons Family Demand a Zoo [x3] (6s, Town Hall or Brown House)
Mrs. Quimby Joe, the rabble are rousing again. They're chanting "We want a zoo!" over and over.
Quimby Any funds for a zoo went to the apology furs I bought you. I suppose families could tour your closet to see minks, foxes, and cheetahs.
Mrs. Quimby Sweetie, I'm afraid you're going to have to act more responsibly than that.
Quimby I've got it, we're nuking... the education department's budget!
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10

We Stole a Zoo Pt. 2

After completing We Stole a Zoo Pt. 1:
Moe Alright, who ordered a drunk Emu? This ain't a drink! I got a real drunk Emu here. I might be responsible for the “drunk” part. We gotta get it in a pen before it sobers up.
Quimby The animals are already arriving?! We haven't even built the first enclosure yet. Or found the tools to build it.
Task: Place Springfield Zoo Entrance
Task: Place The Emu Experience
Quimby Ostentatious entrance, check. Emus, check. Great start, Springfielders! What else does a zoo need?
Mrs. Quimby How ‘bout filing for bankruptcy? We've run out of funding.
Quimby Time to do what we always do in times of crisis -- nuke another city program. Health care? Homeless housing? So many wonderful choices.
Tapped Out Larry Kidkill Icon.png Hold the cuts, Quimby. We still have some creative options to explore for acquiring those funds.
Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and XP10

We Stole a Zoo Pt. 3

After completing We Stole a Zoo Pt. 2:
Quimby So, what did you have in mind, Larry? Laundering? Gambling? Laundering AND Gambling?!
Tapped Out Larry Kidkill Icon.png Nope, we're doing this legit. Bureaucracy will be our ally this day.
Quimby *shiver* Did anyone else feel a cold draft? No? Just me? Sorry, legally compliant paperwork terrifies me.
Tapped Out Larry Kidkill Icon.png Relax, Joe, I'll handle the paperwork. All we need are a couple of kind-hearted volunteers and then we can go full non-profit.
Tapped Out Larry Kidkill Icon.png We’ll collect tax-free grants from Federal environmental programs. And voila! Instant zoo!
Task: Make Larry Kidkill Wisely Navigate Bureaucracy (6s)
Task: Make Springfielders Volunteer at The Emu Experience [x3] (6s, The Emu Experience)
Task: Place Zoo Wall
Lisa What's worse: the TV execs running our theme parks, or the corporate shills exploiting an easy loophole in our tax codes?
Bart I'm gonna go with TV execs.
Lisa At least this time we're treating the animals humanely.
Quest reward: 100 Event Currency and XP10

Tapped Out Larry Kidkill Icon.png Good news! If we relocate any invasive species we find the State will give us additional funding!
Homer Woo hoo! I say the first invasive species we get rid of are zoo guests!
Bart Ya, they're super annoying. Especially when they're blocking my view of the invasive animals.
Tapped Out Larry Kidkill Icon.png Don't worry, I got a plan for that too. Man, I'm full of solutions today.
Task: Place Animal Feeding Area
Task: Use Animal Feeding Area
Task: Send Invasive Tadpoles to Other Springfield
On 2nd task end:
Marge They could have just installed a PA system to announce when the zoo is closing. Why let a tiger loose?
On jobs end:
Lisa Because it's more fun to see people run for the exits from a tiger!
Marge And you're okay with this?
Lisa As long as the animals' quality of life is better here than out in the wild, I'm happy.

We Stole a Zoo Pt. 6

After completing We Stole a Zoo Pt. 5:
Homer *yawn* This zoo is lame. It's no better than Moe's exotic petting zoo shenanigans from Christmas.
Moe Since when is smuggling illegal exotic animals shenanigans?
Wiggum “Shenanigans” covers a lot of crimes -- jaywalking, murder… It’s a lot less paperwork if everything’s lumped under that.

Weapons of Mass Attraction Pt. 2

After completing Weapons of Mass Attraction Pt. 1:
Tapped Out Larry Kidkill Icon.png You think creating new monsters… I mean animals will bring in more guests?

After completing Weapons of Mass Attraction Pt. 4:
Tapped Out Larry Kidkill Icon.png It's no use. We just can't draw the crowds like zoos used to.
Lisa Mr. Kidkill, you don't need new animals to win the crowds. If anything, you need less new things.
