Recreating An Accurate Springfield In ‘The Simpsons: Tapped Out’

Part 6 of the Tapped Out guide is a little Christmas special, what with it being that time of year and all.

Santa’s Village

This small area is entirely dedicated to the festive season.. quite useless for the rest of the year.

The episode “How I Spent My Strummer Vacation” has the village located next door to a slaughter house, which in turn is next to a Mental Institute (which doesn’t appear to be Calmwood but could be).

I chose to have it near the shopping district as I imagine it would probably be in that sort of area. It’s also on the edge of town for an easy supply of Christmas trees.
I’ve decorated with a small reindeer petting pen, the snowmen and the Grumple balloon.
I’ve also included a couple of other seasonal buildings (both from Halloween) that I don’t feel fit anywhere else in town, but look comfortable here.

Springfield Downs

One of the main locations in the Simpsons first ever Christmas (and full length) episode. The place that Homer rescued Santa’s Little Helper from.

I added a dog balloon as the greyhound track seems a fitting place.

Tips and Tricks
Here you can see how it is possible to use benches to make a 3D stadium effect. Correct placement makes them look higher than others. Make sure the fences and walls nearby don’t ruin the illusion.
