There were 2 data updates for the Ios (in my case). Both around 70+mb. For my android device, only once but the download was for 176mb.

That is how it should be. First, you need to update the game via the App Store (at least for iOS) and secondly, the game will update itself (you will see an update progress bar).

No, I mean it updated and loaded like you said, then I played for an hour or so and then when I closed the game and started again, it had to load the game again through the update window. I am wondering if they put this feature in to be able to make more forceful changes in the game without us updating or if it's just a glitch.

This happened to me too. I finished my first day quest, then..
I had to delete the app and reinstalled it again though.

I've bought 10 of each. Do you believe that would be enough? :lol:

Anyway, not that I am a fan of easter decoration, or really colorful and flowery (?) decoration for that matter... but hey, it's free :mrgreen:

Yeah, that's... interesting. :P Well, at least they do something nice :-) They must have made them available because enough people submitted their architect home. I remember such an advertisement.

It's pretty cool that there are 2 bunnies and 2 eggs to choose from. The greener bunnies could make a pretty nice hedge-like fence for an Easter-themed house, I guess, lol. I personally like the bunny with the pink flowers the most, I think, but it does have a bit too many flowers, in my opinion...

Thanks for info. I haven't seen any notification in the game. And yes, it's great that they are free. What a surprise.
