How do I ask sim if they are ok?
It is an interaction so click on another sim to see this option
I did and couldn’t find anything?
Are you using adults sims who are friends or a couple?
Never mind… Both sims have to be adults
I did it with a teen and an adult
I dont get the option to ask if they are ok. Ive tried different people.
I don’t know why it isn’t showing up, try using 2 adult sims that are friends or married, get one to click on the other.
I’m having the same problem. I tried to ask another sim, but the action isn’t promted.
I don’t know why it isn’t showing up, try using 2 adult sims who are friends or married, get one to click on the other.
If you have any kids make them take a shower a nap or something and then just the parents talk and you’ll see the ask Sim if ok sign.
This has nothing to do with the Christmas quest but is there anyway I can get free LPs?
This post may help: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2014/02/27/the-sims-freeplay-15-ways-to-make-money-and-lps/
You are quick. Impressed as always.
Thanks! I did use a few LPs to get it posted as quickly as possible 🙂
Can you tell me how to splash a sum in the face please?
Click on a sink and select the option
I cant find that option on any sink 😦
I used a kitchen sink
Is there a particular type of sink that works with? All I have for choices is wash hands and clean under fingernails
I used a kitchen sink
I figured out the sink issue — the sim needs to be an adult. (Or at the very least, not a senior)
Thanks for the help!
[…] The Sims Freeplay- The Great Xmas Mishap Quest 2014 […]
Is the prize worth it I’m not sure if I should use my LP to speed it up…?
Do you mean todays prize or the bear prize?
Todays prize is nice, I personally did use LPs to speed it up
Where can i find the thinking man statue?
In the park.
Can I start the quest next week? I have exams this week 😦
Sorry you have 12 days from now, you can use LPs to speed up if you need to though
So I cant do this quest unless I finish the quest I’m currently on?
Yes you can
How do i rest with thinking man?
click on the thinking man statue in the park.
Where the thinking man statue
in the park.
I can’t ask a sim if they are ok. Does it matter the age of the sims? Help me please it’s not working
Try using 2 adult sims who are married or friends.
Where is this recipe book?
In a bookshelf.
I clicked on another sim to complete the “Ask another sim if they are ok” task, but that option isn’t appearing. Where did I go wrong?
Try using 2 adult sims who are married or friends.
I think I need to be level 55 to get the “bookshelf,” or is there another one around that I can’t seem to find? Thanks.
No you don’t, there are in the living room section, go past the sofas and you will find the bookcases
Asking the sim if they are ok does not come up..do they have to have a certain friend level?
Try with two adults who are friends or a married couple.
What is the meaning of (this is the all the goals of 1 day come back tomorrow for next quests
Once you have done all those goals you need to wait until the next day to do the next set of goals, I’m not sure how I can word this any differently to make more sense.
When do I get the bear
After you have completed all the goals, and I don’t just mean all of the goals in day 1, there will be several more days to complete before you get the bear.
When do I get the bear
After you have completed all the goals, and I don’t just mean all of the goals in day 1, there will be several more days to complete before you get the bear.
What book do iread for a recipe after the cookie explosion?
Its called recipe, click on a bookshelf to find it
Tried adult bookshelf and teens no recipe option! Any suggestions?
Are you using an adult sim to select the action?
I had trouble with my sims asking, so. Found my marrie couple and they had the option. I think friend status matters too.
thank you so so so muche
Thank you so much Catherine I tried it with two married sims and it worked! Yeah!!!
Love your blog! Thank u for this…
You’re welcome!
Is the prize worth it?
What the living teddy bear? I have no idea, but I hope so!
Do you think the prize is worth it?
I don’t know as the quest has just begun, but I hope so!
Thanks for the update.. I was stuck on “Rest with thinking man” . it dosent say where particular place is in the clue until i read about the statue in your clue. Your clue was more appropriate than the game.. thanks
You’re welcome, I’m glad it helped!
Why I didn’t receive the christmas mission? I have updated my game 😦
It might not have started for you yet
I received the Xmas quest but it won’t show on my quest list. I’m stuck with ringlets of fire
I think you should contact EA about this issue
can you tell me how to rest the thinking man ?
Click on the thinking man statue in the park
So happy theses Quest arent extremely long! Lets hope the rest arent either .
Yeah lets hope they aren’t but they have to be completed in a day so they shouldn’t be that long
How do you get your quest done so fast.
I didn’t exactly do it that fast but I used Lps to speed up the longest goals.
Do you know why the option to ask acsim if they are okay is not popping up?
I don’t know why it isn’t showing up, try using 2 adult sims who are friends or married, get one to click on the other.
Thankyou… This blog is really help me when i am playing the Sims Freeplay
You’re welcome! I’m glad it helps
Will the game have some new Xmas decor this year? They have brought back lasts years things but new ones would be great.
No idea, we will have to wait and see but it will probably be similar to last years
There isn’t a promt to splash a sim in the face. I’ve used all different sinks and people. Even went to the resturaunt. What do I do?
Try using an adult sim, I used a kitchen sink
I’m having a hard time reading a recipe book. None of my bookshelves have that option.
Are you using an adult sim?
where i can find the man statue. I went to the park but i didn’t find anything.. Can you instruct me? Sorry if i bother you.
I have added a picture to the post of what the thinking man statue looks like and where abouts he is in the park, I hope that helps.
I click on bookshelf and there’s no recipe book
Are you using an adult sim?
Ok I’m back. It seems as though this update has removed the karate and ballet as hobbies for the preteens. Anybody else have this issue?
They haven’t, they are definitely still there, they don’t appear as a hobby screen because you don’t collect items each time you do the hobby
I love all your quest posts! It really helps to start things ahead of time… I am on meditation goal
Thanks!
You’re welcome! I’m glad they help!
I don’t understand how to rest with the thinking man
There is a picture in the post of what the thinking man looks like, click on him and select the option.
I hope i’ll complete all quests as i want the bear…
Usefull forum anyway 😉
Idk why but for me, I only have 12 hours to get the living teddy bear
You should have 12 days, not hours
When I try to ask santa, for some reason all of my adult sims teenage sims and preteen sims get all dazed and not able to talk. Help maybe?
Strange, try bringing another sim to that house to talk to him
This is helping a lot.
Ever since I started having troubles with Sims FreePlay, I try to go to this website.
I’m glad it helps
I don’t have the quest and have updated
So you have updated the game but you haven’t got the quest? that is strange, maybe you should contact EA about the problem as I am unable to help with technichal issues, sorry!
Is it okay i cant complete the last two today or have i lost the Bear then
You don’t need to complete them on the day, if you missed starting on day one then you will need to do day 1 on day 2 before you start the second days goals, to get the bear you just need to get all the goals done in the time limit of 12 days.
Is it okay i dont do all the taske today or have i lost the Bear then
Yes it’s fine, you just need to get all the goals done in the 12 day limit
My quest is not showing up what do I do
Have you updated your game?
how do you get LP. I need help getting some can you tell me how?
This post may help: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2014/02/27/the-sims-freeplay-15-ways-to-make-money-and-lps/
Where do I find the free LP’s in a store? I’ve looked in all of them and can’t find the option anywhere. I need LP’s currently. 😦
Sometimes the button for free LPs isnt there
My quest hasn’t showed up yet do you know why that is cause I’ve been checking all day and nothing had happened
Have you updated your game?
I dont get how you have to start from today then wait 15hrs. Is where and way you can speed it up?
You can only do so many goals a day, once day 1 goals are done you have to wait until the next day.
Do you happen to know when the quest will start? It’s already three in the afternoon here, but I have no quest yet 😦
Have you updated your game?
I did yes. I was getting the gifts the first couple of days but not anymore, the Santa isn’t flying around anymore, the ringlets of fire quest is stuck on the task page. I’ve asked the RA people, but no response so far. It’s a little frustrating as this happened with the Thanksgiving quest too.
Sorry there is nothing I can do, ringlet of fire quest still appearing is a technical issue which I am unable to fix.
