iOS app review: The Simpsons Tapped Out

When it comes to my reviews one thing will always remain true..if I get addicted to a game I share it with you! When Homer Simpson blows up Springfield while playing with his myPad then it’s up to him to rebuild the town one building at a time. Is it tedious busy work or does the sense of humor come to rescue it?
