Last week famed indie-developer Jenova Chen explained how to cheat your way through iGame Smurf Village. This week Papa Smurf caught wind of the underhandedness. He was not amused.
Sometime after our article ran about Smurfing your way to a perfect Smurf village on the iPhone or iPad, Capcom got wise and released a new âwinter wonderland update.â They also apparently tipped off Papa Smurf about the cheating.

Papa Smurfâs smiling face is backed by the threat of an all-out Smurf union strike: âIâm disappointed that youâve been overworking the Smurfs by changing the clock,â he writes in a pop-up window in the game. âCareful, or Smurfs will leave the village.â
Whatâs next Papa? An accidental fire? Maybe Smurfs get a little clumsy, literally, like Clumsy Smurf, and things start to break? Just donât ask me to buy Smurf protection with Smurf Berries. Itâs not Smurfing happening.
A word to the wise. Donât download that winter update until youâve had your fill of exploiting Smurfs with long hours and no pay.
