"Family Guy - The Quest For Stuff" game

Well, i finally got my last giraffe. Cleveland is mine. However, it seems that all he can do for the next who-knows-how-lomg is one thing, since he has to be at level 5 to do something else.

Since he is at level one, there is only one task he can do which is dance.

What a strange way to introduce a character.

I am not disappointed that it took me so long to get him. I just don’t understand the point of making him do one task forever. It is the same thing as making me put quagmire and Chris on those same giraffe-tasks. Boring.
What is the deal with the mummy pirates, anyway? I get that they are mummies coming from the pyramid, but why are they pirates? This game has a thing for pirates.

I don’t know what the optimal tasks are to put everyone on to maximize my moons, but i have been putting mermaid peter and shamus together and Joe and Bonnie together to get bigger moon numbers. That is as far as my thinking goes, and they are both 8 hour tasks, so I usually see them only once or twice a day to restart them.

I guess I could visit my town more, but I don’t have the time. Between this and TSTO’s current event, I don’t have enough time to do either event properly.

In retrospect, I should have tried the shutdown method to get Cleveland. That was a huge pain in the ass to get 25 giraffes. And Cleveland would have been dancing for days now!

Cleveland’s one “event” is only a few minutes long?

Even stranger way to introduce Cleveland. It will take him weeks to reach level 5 unless I camp out on the app and reset it constantly.

Anyone else know a way to speed up Cleveland?

Not to worry. It doesn’t take long to get to level 2 and then he gets a 4 hour event, I think.

Yeah, you only have to make him dance 5 or 6 times until he levels up and unlocks the 4 hour task. That being said, I STILL haven’t got him up to level 5 and I’ve had him for many days (maybe a week? I’m not sure). I have him saying “That’s nasty” for one last time and then he’ll finally level up to Level 5 tonight. It’s been a slog.

They’re not pirates, they’re club-goers who have been trapped inside a rave for 3,000 years. If you look closely, you’ll notice they are wearing sunglasses, visors, and tank tops, and pounding bottles of beer.

And I think the female ones flash their sandy tits as they die.

They do that anyway if you let them walk around your town.

My nephew was playing this on his ipad today, and made me install it on my itouch 4. He’s been playing it for quite a while, and has a massive amount of stuff unlocked. It seemed pretty cool, so I let him install it.

I really really dislike games with timers like this. Log in, set someone to a 6 hour task, log out. But I guess you can do shorter tasks during the day and set longer ones if you’re going to bed or work or whatever. So that’s not too bad.

The big problem is unlocking Stewie. I had to “visit an alternate dimension Quahog”, but every single time I clicked it, the game crashed and took some of my money with it. I finally got it to work (once), then it was “add a friend to your Quahogs”. Of course I can’t get it to work again. and it crashes every time. This is a problem with other ios games too. There are games I can’t get to start at all.

So I thought, I’ll delete some stuff and free some space, maybe that will help. But it’s not going well.
I recently reformatted my computer (erase the drive and reinstall everything), and every time I do a reformat, my artist/album/songs get massively screwed up on itunes. I have 4600 songs that mostly predate the pod and are in mp3 format. Plus it’s now informing me that I have used 5 out of 5 computers allowed to authorize (I have had the same computer for 7 years, and have never synced it to a different PC, but I reformat it once in a while).

So after transferring my photos and videos to the computer, I deleted them to save space. I then tried to re-sync (for the first time since the reformat), but it’s telling me that I need 11.5gb more space than is on the pod, and it can’t sync. However, pre-sync I had 13gb free and then deleted a bunch of apps, photos, and videos, so I’m haviing trouble understanding why I suddenly don’t have enough space.

Why don’t I just add/delete items directly from the pod? Because my niece likes to play with the Elmo Calls app, and used to accidentally delete stuff. So I changed restrictions to not allow you to delete anything from the pod. I can’t change the restriction because I forgot the password I used. Plus I do buy an album once in a while and like to rip it and add it to my pod.

I haven’t been able to visit my FG friend Ollie in weeks. Allegedly they fixed it today, but I still crash. It’s an ongoing problem for all players.

Ok, good to know it’s not just me having this issue. I downloaded the update but haven’t tried to access an alternate Quahog since.

This game is a bit boring so far. I like the humor, although it’s a bit crude and sometimes offensive. But so far it’s just “log in, collect, set everyone who’s unoccupied to a task, squash the zombies, and log out” 3-4 times a day.

It takes way too many long tasks to collect the items you need to unlock characters. It’s going to take months to unlock Cleveland.

Try the trick that Erdosain posted in post #109. If you do it right, it’ll take under a week.

Some new content dropped with the skin we can get for Cleveland, but it all costs clams. I think I’ll get most of the stuff this even without spending money, but I’m not liking the balance between free and premium stuff. There is even more premium than TSTO, and it costs more.

Yeah, there is a big disparity.

I went looking for things to buy for my town, since all I have been doing during this event is collecting money.

But just about EVERYTHING costs clams.

I never used the trick to get Cleveland, can you use it to get Cleveland’s skin?

I am pretty sure I will not get the Cleveland skin, and I am burt out of killing mummies. The only way to get any moon count at all (without buying them) is to camp out on the game and kill those mummies for hours on end.

Since the Cleveland Skin came available, I have put Peter, Bonnie, Bruce and Jerome on their 4 hour task constantly, which i hate. And I will never get all the prizes available for this event. At the pace i’m going, I will probably get the camel, but the pyramid will be iffy. No way I get anything past the pyramid.

How are the rest of you all doing? Anyone spend any real money and try the sarcophagus things for luck? Of course, both require clams, and the one would require every clam I have for one spin. Not worth it.

In fact, nothing seems worth it for clam purchases.

Between this and TSTO, i am not enjoying these games much any more. I always knew they were pointless, but the FG-TQFS has nothing I want to decorate my town with that doesn’t cost clams. I DO like a lot of the graphics, and every once in a while a “moon” farts when I collect it. But i am extremely bored with it.

Where is channel 5, for example? I can’t figure out how to get it, so all I ever do is put the asian reporter lady on the same 8 hour quest. I enjoy making Brian “do the scoot”,’ but that’s about it for him.

Maybe it would be better with a bunch of friends to visit, but I don’t see it.

What do the rest of you think about this game?

Anything that requires items can be gotten with the airplane mode trick. It makes the game much more fun when you don’t have to wait ridiculous amounts of time.

I haven’t paid for anything, and don’t plan to.
I somehow wound up with a bunch of clams (30 or 40) just from doing quests. I did the Sarcophagus gamble for 25 clams and won 30 clams. I gambled again and got a stupid lava hot tub.
I don’t like this game THAT much, but it only takes a few minutes here and there to play, so I’ll probably stick with it for a while.

I haven’t spent any real money on this game and haven’t added any friends. I still have earned over 200 clams for free. The new Cleveland skin comes with one free building and a free dance floor.

I won’t spend money on this game. I don’t like it as much and it’s too unstable. I’ve been able to visit Ollie one time in a month. I don’t have other friends because it’s still facebook only. I have 198 clams saved up, but nothing seems too interesting.

I’ll get the camel too, maybe one beyond. So that’s MOST of the stuff for free. I’m ok enough with that, but if I ever get low on space and have to delete a game, this is the one going in the trash, not TSTO.

Hey all,

One thing that has happened to my game that I thought was strange, and I am wondering if anyone else has seen it.

I a have had a few characters hit the Max level, which is basically level 15 for each character.

About a week ago, my Peter Griffin was given new levels, and now, He is on level 17. He is the only one that has received another level, and I can’t figure out why.

Anyone else notice this, and if so, have any of your other characters moved beyond “Maximum”

Thanks

I don’t know what is going on with my character levels. I think they’re all (but Cleveland, that is) maxed out.

I lost a bunch of butts today. I had nearly 15k and now it’s down to 11k. I didn’t buy anything big. Unless it was the pharaoh dude. I’m… displeased.

Is anyone collecting the Jell-O shots yet?
