Player

The Player is the person who controls the gameplay of The Simpsons: Tapped Out, and is tasked with rebuilding Springfield with Homer and other characters. The player is sometimes referred to by characters as a "Giant Finger" or "Sky Finger".

The game is supported by EA's Origin which acts as a social bridge to where players log in to their Origin accounts and visit friends' towns to collect Cash and Experience once every 24 hours; and occasionally other tasks during an event.
