Tsum Tsum Life: Skill Me Up, Scottie!

Remember when the Tsum Tsum Trick-or-Treat event started in the beginning of October? They said there would be a new card every week leading up to Halloween, but they lied. The trust has been broken… things will never be the same… I miss us…

Tsum Tsum Lies

So last week was card-less. No card. Come back next week, buh bye! They updated the information with actual card release dates. I was le sad…

But the second card (of three) came last week. Just like card one, you had to fill up your pumpkin with 20 candies. It wasn’t hard, just time consuming. From card 1, my pro-tip remains the same. Use Sorcerer Mickey if you have him, since you can just tap the pumpkin three times when his skill activates to burst it open and collect what’s inside (could be candy, coins, or hearts).

The prize for filling up the second card sounds marvelous. “Skill Up Ticket.” YAAAAS! In premise, you can use it to skill up any Tsum Tsum of your choosing. That means you don’t have to wait to randomly get a Tsum Tsum in a box to raise it’s level. This almost seems to good to be true.

WOMP! WOMP! It is to good to be true (le sob!). The “Skill Up Ticket” doesn’t raise your Tsum Tsum by a whole skill level, it just acts as if you got it one more time in a box. So if your Maleficent Tsum Tsum is on level 2 and you haven’t received the “mistress of all evil” in a box since reaching that level, it just bumps you up a little bit towards level 3. It does not, I repeat, it DOES NOT raise her to level 3 all on its own. As I discovered this hideous truth, my eyes started welling up with tears. This ticket definitely puts the “Trick” in “Trick-or-Treat.”

Next week should be the final ticket, so by Halloween I hope we all have Sandy Claws and are havin the Best. Time. Ever. playing the game.
