The Village Update : My Little Pony

This morning (June 18th) Rainbow Dash finally turned into Fluttershy, meaning the newest update was available, which promptly loaded coming in at over 100mb... then it promptly crashed loading. Not a severe Paradise Cove crash, and maybe it was because I had just finished a sit down with Mystery Manor and its repeating music was still cluttering one of the audio channels (there is a report on that and other glitches of the Week over at the Game On Max blog, click the link to the right to check it out.

Ok, once I get past that new updates to come (New ponies, and the theater for earning gems watching ads).

Update - Ok, the game is now loading slowly and you have to wait a few minutes for it to start. Hopefully that is fixed quickly.

Octavia is in your inventory in Canterlot, complete with a new house (you'llyou're see why shortly). Set it up and Octavia arrives... of course this assumes you already bought her in Ponyvilleat, which I did, otherwise she's a new pony to buy in Canterlot.

Now buy Beauty Brass and Frederich... and realize this is an incomplete gathering of Octavia' s ensemble (seen in The Best Night Ever, but not seen in Sweet and Elite as Octavia is playing with a different ensemble... they also appear in the Midnight Magic audio drama The Vinyl Scratch Tapes episode 4) moving into Octavia' s, only missing pony being Harpo.

The only ponies with new houses is the priest pony for the Royal wedding and Sunset Shimmer... weird, this is supposed to be a Equestria Girls update but most of the update seems to link to the Royal Wedding... Oh, then there is the theater.

Considering this isn't GameLoft's first go with an ad playing theater (Ice Age Village, Epic) you'd think this would be at least as effective as the ad player in Order Up To Go, but it isn't.

Next Update - The Ad Theater and its one failing that must be fixed.
