For over a decade there’s been a tale of two cities in the App Store, it started when The Simpsons: Tapped Out hit the app stores in 2012, then 2 years later Family Guy Quest For Stuff entered the fray. Sadly there was no twinning of these towns for many as they felt they had to pick a side, Springfield or Quahog, but some enjoyed both, they looked past their similarities and celebrated their differences. I was one of those, so it’s with sadness I read the pop up in my tiny Springfield on Thursday telling us the end is nigh.

FGQFS may be on life support, with the odds of survival low, but where there’s an app there’s still hope, however TSTO is at end of life care, as the game will be nuked from EA servers on 24th Jan 2025. So for those of you who enjoyed both games it’s sad news, especially for the community of players built across the addicts sites.
For those who played and stopped you’ve time to log in, grab free donuts to buy all the returning characters that are coming, and of course take a screenshot of your town as a keepsake, or to make into a tea towel or a jigsaw. But seriously I’ll miss my tiny town of Springfield as much as I’ll miss my tiny Quahog when the day comes when EA flush all our little towns down the world’s largest toilet.
