My girlfriend is a huge Sims fan, and as a consequence, so am I. There is just something about managing other people's daily lives and watching them learn and grow that makes it so endearing. The Sims Freeplay is not a new game, but it is a really good Sims game. If you are having trouble progressing or just want some tips on getting more money, I hope this guide will help you.
Scoring Goals
As great as it is sending your Sim to pee and flirt with the neighbor's daughter, those only give a small reward. For the big money, complete the goals and objectives set by the game. Not only do they make you do very interesting things and act as a sort of tutorial for things you didn't know existed, it also gives you rare Lifestyle Points that you can use for cool stuff and features.
Competition
If you notice in the town map, there is a building called the Competition Center. Clicking on it will unveil new competitions that will garner you lucrative rewards. The best part of it is that the competitions are based on the hobbies that your Sims can learn and level up on, so it really gives you the incentive to make your Sim a pro at something. Check in on the Competition Center regularly to send your best-leveled Sim to earn cash and Lifestyle Points.
Sim Town
The Sim Town is bursting with buildings to buy and build, and each of these buildings serve a purpose. From Shopping Malls that you can sell and buy stuff, to the Town Hall where you can learn woodworking and karate, to the Children School, there is no harm in expanding your town. The best thing about it is that your Land Value goes up as you expand. The higher the value of your town, the more Lifestyle Points you get.
Mystery Island
As you level up and reach a higher level, the Mystery Island will be unlocked. In this Mystery Island, there are mysterious monuments and structures that you can build using rare resources that you gain from doing normal daily stuff with your Sims. Each structure or monument will give you special bonuses such as an increase in the xp or money you gain from baking, gardening, etc. Needless to say, try to complete as many as this to give you a bonus to your daily chores.
Events!
Check The Sims Freeplay App on your Play Store for updates regularly because it occasionally gets updated for special events and holidays. For example, last month was the Christmas event and completing missions during the event will give you Christmas-themed stuff. One of my Sim's houses was all decked out in red and white, Christmas Lights and even fireworks! Participate in these special events to score some really cool stuff and earn good money and Lifestyle Points in the process.
Lastly, some common and uncommon sense tips:
- If you know you will be away from your device for a period of time, make full use of it by sending your Sims to plant or work on a hobby for precisely that amount of time.
- Send your Sims to work. The more often they work, the higher level they get in what they do, and the more xp and money they earn when they return from work.
- Notice that your dog occasionally digs up treasure from around your house? Well, when the next time your dog digs up something, praise it because it will dig up more the next time, and quicker.
- When you have enough money, buy the mansion because it also comes with a frickin nice car. Take the car out for a ride and tap the music notes as it pops up. You can earn quite a bit here, and if you're lucky, a few Lifestyle Points.
