Superb New Mansion?

Post by DelDel »

In the additional information, in the App Store, for the new update it says New & Exciting Limited Time Prizes and mentions a "Superb New Mansion"

Personally I don't see the hallway house or DIY house as Superb Mansions. Does anyone know if this means we have another new house coming at some point with the update? Or is the DIY home what they are referring to?

I don't think either of those homes are supposed to be the "superb new mansion".

I think it might be this house that is featured in the App Store pics:

There was a pic of this house floating around Facebook before the update happened and it looks like the house featured in the trailer.

I hope that is it because that house is superb no doubt or question.

As far as I can tell, the "promotion" house is not in the game at all.
The DIY house is unlocked (and 1 free) when finishing the "DIY Homes: Basement of Kings" quest within 7 days. (Starts 2oth of May).

So happy to hear the DIY house is a) available and b) free!! I really like the layout. Not wild about the hallway house...

Looking forward to more info on the superb mansion ! :P

From what I understand they consider the DIY House the "superb mansion".
- New and exciting Limited Time Prizes in the DIY Homes series of quests. Be the talk of the town with the Make Out Couch, luscious planters, and a superb new mansion!
Other than the DIY Home, there is no other limited time reward house.

Thank you for this information!

I am disappointed. Like DelDel, I don't think the DIY house is in anyway superb. Oh well, if that promotion house was in the game it would probably have cost a ridiculous amount of SPs anyway.

Over all I'm disappointed with the hallway house. I previewed it and it's not worth the money. It a fixer upper in my opinion. The layout sucks and there isn't any furniture or stuff that I don't already have. I am looking forward to the DIY house. Especially since I'll get one free :)

I'm excited to get a house with a basement for free to play around with. I agree the house itself isn't spectacular though. But free is good and rare!

It will be interesting to find out the prices for basements, patios and balconies though. Do any of the sceptics among us wonder if the price of pool surrounds have gone down to kindly allow us to afford extortionate prices for the new stuff? :o
