Simpsons Too Smart for the Room?
Folks who are regular readers here know that I love "The Simpsons." I love the game The Simpsons Tapped Out especially, and yes, I've been geeking out watching Every Simpsons Ever on FXX.
In just the last week however, there's been a new game within Simpsons Tapped Out, and I just don't get it. It seems to have a medieval vibe but that's not all. There's nerds, barbarians, seeming Dungeons & Dragons references, and while all that may seem like it's in my roundhouse, the game is completely incomprehensible to me.
Does anyone know how this is played? I think EA just may have jumped the shark by trying too hard and assuming too much…
Hey Glenn,
ReplyDeleteYou have to collect Nerds to attack other people's towns where they have a crossed axe and sword. Nerds generate at your castle thingee that they Barbarian gives you. It is a parody of the very popular Clash of Clans game that my brother is addicted to.
Yours,
Eugene
