Springfield Heights Expansion


 * Not to be confused with Springfield Heights (quest chain)



The  is the third major expansion for The Simpsons: Tapped Out. It was released on July 22, 2015, one day after the Tap Ball Event "officially" ended and includes more than 10 new buildings, 20 new decorations, 50 new plots of land and as many boardwalk sections. It comes with a New XP Bonus Feature (details below) and Cookie Kwan is the main character related to the expansion, like the Sea Captain and Krusty were the main characters for the Squidport Expansion and the Krustyland Expansion.

It is accessed via a tunnel through the Springfield Mountains, the opening of which has a sign reading "Springfield Heights" on its left (the player's right.) Before the area is unlocked, the tunnel is blocked with rubble and a warning barrier, and the sign is overgrown with vegetation.

Players must be at level 30 to begin the expansion.
