Family Guy: The Quest For Stuff has been running a special Comic-Con event ever since the week of the SDCC. Quahog has received its very own convention! Nerds are swarming the town, a bunch of goofy buildings and statutes have gone up, and geek celebrities are available for unlocking.
Family Guy's Adam West Runs For Mayor In Real Life. Seriously.
Patrick Stewart, Ron Perlman, Felicia Day and Bryan Cranston are already available, with seven celebrities in total coming to the game. Today Stan Lee was made available - here's how to unlock him!
First you're going to have to repair the flagpole he's currently hanging from. Stan has somehow been cocooned up there by the evil octopus Stewie and it will take eight hours to free him from his prison.
Is Family Guy: The Quest For Stuff A Simpsons Tapped Out Clone? Our Review
Once he's out you're going to have to run some errands for him to unlock him for the game, as with all of the other characters. As always he needs brand new items that are provided by various actions that the characters can perform, as well as some premium content. Here's what he needs, how rare the items are, and how to get them-
- 10 Classic Books (Extra Rare- Bomb Minion Stewie, Make Quagmire Watch "My Little Furry", Q Hotel, Old Timey Book Store)
- 15 Notebooks (Rare- Make Lois Write Passive Aggressive Emails, Stan Lee's Trailer)
- 15 Movie Cameras (Extra Rare- Bomb Minion Stewie, Make Mort Hold Fundraiser, Make Patrick Stewart Football Tricks, Outhouse of Loneliness, Quahog Film Museum)
- 15,000 Blam! Energy Drinks
The Old Timey Book Store, Stan Lee's Trailer, and the Quahog Film Museum are all premium items that cost clams to obtain, but they will speed up the unlocking of the legendary comic creator.
Unlocking him will help you with the rest of the event, which sees Minion Stewies swarming Quahog. Unlike other characters who have attacked your town (like the nerds swarming the Comic-Con) you can't just tap them to remove them- you have to bomb them. You can buy or find gas bombs that will take out a number of them. Stan Lee has an action that drops bombs so getting him will help you eliminate more of them.
The trick is to bomb as many Stewies as possible, becuase bombs are rare and only few characters can get you more for free. You can purchase them but at ten clams for one bomb it can get very pricey!
The key is to lead them before you fire. Try to aim at an intersection that a bunch of Minion Stewies are approaching and let fly when they're about a half a block away, and you'll get as many as possible. They drop a lot of Energy Drinks (and also items required for Stan Lee) so it's a good idea to take them out ASAP.
Now that Stan is out the only characters remaining are Nathan Fillion and George Takei- we'll let you know when he's available!
