Homerpalooza Bonus[]
As it happens with most major events, players are able to get bonus Donuts once they had completed the Main Quests in the current act and unlocked the fourth prize in each act. Every 5000 Cuffs, 10000 Sunglasses and 15000 Bling, they are presented with 3 boxes containing either one, two or three Donuts. The boxes work the same as the ones from the Where's Maggie? Minigame, with players having to spend 150,000 Cash to open another box.
Jam Sessions[]
A new mechanic was added with the event. Players could obtain Cuffs, Sunglasses and Bling by sending characters to locations that can hold Jam Sessions.
Crafting[]
Players could craft prizes at the Kwik-E-Merch using Festival Tickets. Similar to most recent events, the player had to increase their crafting level in order to unlock more prizes. Each crafted prize contributed to the total amount of Festival Tickets needed to reach the next level.
