Why are there two versions of some quests?
Some quests have two versions, as when the makers have updated the times for quests they haven’t updated them on all devices so some players still get the old times
What do you mean when you say a goal can be started early?
Any goal that you can normally do can be started early because you will have access to it and any goal that you can’t normally do you will have to wait until you get the goal to be able to complete it
The tip with this method is to put the sim doing that action early in a different house that you cannot go to until you get that goal or it will not work
Some times are slightly different on my game, why is this?
Times may vary depending on the star rating of the item you are using, as the higher star rating an item has the quicker you will complete a goal

What is the difference between The Sims Freeplay and The Sims Mobile?
The Girl Who Games 
hi!! i’m on the need for steed quest. i’m at the part where it asks you to look for a horse through the telescope, but i don’t have promotions r us built so yeah. i decided to go to my neighbours house and use their telescope to see if it worked, but now my sim has finished. except when i try to go back to my house to see if it worked, it wont let me go back home. it just stays at the neighbours house and it keeps finishing “Look For Horse” over and over again.
That is weird
Have you tried turning off your device and on again? That might stop it doing this
i have no idea, but i tried deleting the app. but then i tried to redownload but my save data wouldnt sync, and i panicked. turns out it was because my game center wouldnt connect, but eventually i fixed it. so now my question is – can you use a neighbours telescope to look for the horse? i tried and nothing happened
Oh im glad you got your game back! 😀 That would have made me panic too! Usually quest tasks cant be done in a neighbours town so you will probably need to build the promotions r us and buy a telescope in your town, sorry!
Can you tell me exactly how many orbs are needed to unlock content within the arcade and at the beech once I have unlocked these places?
For the beach you will need 8 bronze and 4 silver sporty orbs to unlock the snorkel hire kiosk for the snorkelling hobby. And for the arcade you need a total of 6 silver, 8 gold and 1 platinum geeky orbs to unlock the skill tester and pinball machine 🙂 i think that’s all!
Hey, thank God for the girls who games. So, I have to questions. First, I always thought the baby can’t go to the toilet cos it’s not an option, but now the toilet bar has stared to go red. What’s that about? And my second question; so when I plant the seeds with a risk of the sim eating plant I don’t get the money, is there any way to make sure I get the money every time? Thanks!
Babies go to the toilet in their nappies, you cant do anything to increase this when it goes right down they will go and then their bladder will increase and their hygiene will decrease 🙂 there isn’t really any way, its a risk you take with those plants
Ok, great to know. Thank you! 😉
No problem 🙂
Hi! So a few days ago (right after I completed the horse quest) my sim limit (that had been on 24) was showing up as 24/194062. I figured it was just showing up wrong so I tried adding a sim & it let me, but drained all of my LPs. It’s been a few days and it’s still like that, I of course like not having a sim limit but it drained my LPs again when I added a baby and I was wondering if there was anyway it was charging me? I haven’t entered in my apple id or anything so I don’t think it could be, but at any rate it’s a pretty weird glitch that I’d never heard of.
Its just costing LPs, its not costing you real money so don’t worry, They have fixed this glitch in the latest update so you will need to update your game to stop this happening, it may still say that you have reached your sim limit but if you aren’t you should be able to still add a sim just don’t go over the sim limit for that level 🙂
Hi! I am doing the hidden unicorn quest and am on the first task. I am supposed to inspect the gate at the right of the stables, but no matter where I press, it don’t give me the option. Just tells me I need to beat this quest to jump horses. Any hints? Thanks!
Are you clicking on the right gate? If so, do you have a sim to do this task at the stables?
I figured it out. Not realizing, I was trying to get my preteen sim to do this task, not an adult. Thanks though 🙂
Okay good 🙂
Hi! I just started the hidden unicorn quest, and my first task it to inspect the lock on the gate to the right if the stables. I pressed everywhere and am not getting the prompt to inspect it. Only a box that says I need to finish this quest to be able to jump horses. Any hints? Thanks!
Hi, I have a few questinons, how do I reach nirvana in the park, I’ve gone there with all my sims, but it don’t come up as an option on anyone or anything.
Also, how can I get people to get married and have kids, after the first quest of marriage I can’t get anyone else to do it. Is the only way of adding a new sim to buy/ build a house?
My social task is to use the telescope at my neighbors house, but they dont have one, so Im stuck, any suggestions?
And last, where can I see my keys.
Thank you so much!
.
You need to click on your sim in the park to get this option
You need them to be romantic constantly until you get the options to get engaged and married
Yes that is the only way, unless it’s a baby you are adding
If they don’t have the telescope you can’t do it, you can skip it with LPs
No problem 🙂
How do you make a sim clean a pool im stuck on that challeng? It dose mot give me the option in the swim center.
You can’t do this at the swim center, you need a pool in your garden, and it needs to be green to do this
One of the social tasks is asking me to practice painting in a neighbour’s town. How do I do that? I can’t find any easels there.
If they don’t have an easel you can’t do this task, you could always skip it with LPs

Hi, when I tried to relocate my dog I was scrolling down the houses and accidently clicked one and I’m not sure which but a big red x came on the screen and the dog disappeared, did I delete my dog and if I did is there any way to get him back? Thanks:)
You didn’t delete it, you moved it, you can find it by going to each house and seeing if its there, if you have a good memory you could also click on another pet and click relocate, (you don’t have to relocate the pet you are just using it to see who has a pet) if you remember who had pets before you can see the difference 🙂
I found the dog, thanks again:)
Good 😀
Is there anyway to take just the hats off the pony tail hairdos? Thanks:)
No, sorry!
For some reason when I go to the costume and swim store I can only look at costumes not swimsuits, I used to be able to look at the swim suits though, what is going on?!! Thanks for your help:)
I have no idea! Are the swim suits still there and you just can’t access them or have they disappeared? It would be a bit strange if a costume and swim store no longer had any swimming suits in it, but maybe EA have done that to confuse us! 😛
Help, please – I want to add a neighbour using Game Centre, but when I go to the Party Boat there is only a Facebook option. In Account Manager it says I’m logged into Game Centre and not logged into Facebook. What am I missing?!
Strange, can you see the neighbours you have added on game center in the game?
Sometimes the game fails to connect to game center so that could be the problem
Thanks 🙂 The first and only neighbour I have was through Facebook as I have a friend who plays. I’m now wondering if you have to choose between game centre and Facebook, though I can’t see a way to delete my neighbour to test that.
You don’t have to choose, you should be able to see game center and Facebook friends in the party boat together, as long as they are both connected
Hi my task is to send my sim to work with low hygiene, is there any way to make my sim have low hygiene really fast? Thanks:)

Hey there!
I am having trouble moving my preteen sim in with her family, so I can use the house she owns by herself for someone else.
I have looked all over the internet and cannot find a solution. What happened was:
I divorced her parents.
Moved out her mom.
Moved her dad in with someone else (not married).
And now she’s alone.
There isn’t an “ask to move in” option with preteens.
If I use the relocate family option to a new house, which sims will follow in this situation? Any ideas on how to get this to happen?
I’m thinking about building a new house, relocating a family, and then asking the second adult to movie in, but I don’t know if moving a family will actually move the daughter since her parents are divorced.
TIA
I’m not sure if it will work but you could always try it, and if it moves the dad back in you could always move him out again 🙂
I have a couple that just divorced, and I started a new relationship for the ex-wife. However, I cannot get the ex-wife to change her last name. Do I have to have her marry her new boyfriend? They already moved in together and their last names are still separate 😦
The name no longer changes until they get married so just them married and that should solve the problem 🙂
Hi, I’m stuck on the social tasks. “catch a fish in a neighbours park”
Every time I go to a neighbours park it doesn’t matter which one (I have a fair few) it won’t let me to to their park…. please help!
why won’t it let you? what does it say when you try?
For some reason when I go to the costume and swim store there is no longer a tab for swimsuits or umbrellas, I’ve looked on dozens of websites to see why this is happening and it seems like other people r having the same problem but I still don’t know what to do about it. Thanks so much for your help:)
Have you completed the all going swimmingly quest? You might need to do that before you get them now
I just finished the all going swimmingly quest and now I have swimsuits, I’m guessing you have to unlock weather machines before you can buy umbrellas:) Thanks!
It doesn’t even have an “icon” to click to access the park
So they haven’t unlocked the park yet then?
Help I have just levelled up to level 17 but it won’t let me add a new sim. It says the next one is available at level 18 ?
You need to wait until the next level then, you don’t unlock a new sim each level
My sims have recently got a toddler and now the mother sim doesn’t want to do any actions such as shower or eat but she also doesn’t want to interact with her daughter. What do I do?
Strange

Hi I just updated my sims freeplay a few days ago and when I go to the sim tracker it only lets me access the first 8 sims so the rest of my sims are stuck in the places that they are already at. Can you tell me how to fix this?
I have not heard of this glitch before, I think the best thing for you to do is to contact EA and let them know about this problem so they can fix it
How do I contact them?
Facebook, twitter or their website, the link for their website is on this page!
For some reason one of my neighbors town is completely different then it used to be, all of the sims and house are different, and I know they didn’t change it because certain buildings they used to have are no longer there. Have u heard a glitch like this before because I have no idea what is going on, thanks for your help:)

Thank you
No problem 🙂

Thank you 🙂
I think it will increase the prices and times but I’m not entirely sure, sorry!
Hi! I have a senior sim who is in the process of “moving on” but the grim reaper won’t show up to take her. She just keeps going through the cycle over and over again. I’ve exited the game completely and restarted it multiple times and nothing. Any ideas on how to bring the grim reaper there? Thank you! Love your website, by the way!
I figured it out. I invited a different sim to the house and the grim reaper followed that sim to the house. It was weird but it worked!
Good 😀 You could have also gone to another house where you know the grim reaper is and then go back home and he would follow 🙂
Hey! Your blog is really really helpful. Just wanted to ask you that, what does a wedding cake do? Waiting for your reply ! Thanks a ton!!
The wedding cake doesn’t do anything, don’t waste your money on it 🙂

Well of you are on an iPhone then you can add players via game center, on the neighbours needed page you will find game center IDs of people to add 🙂
If I’ve completed the Weekly Tasks before the week is over, should I wait until the tasks are refreshed before continuing (since doing them as Regular Tasks won’t get me any closer to a Mystery Box Shop prize)?
Yeah wait until they refresh as it doesnt increase anymore after you have got the key for that week 🙂
That’s what I thought. Thanks!
I can’t ask the statue in the park for advice on the quest for toddlers mission. My sim is in the park but every time I click the statue I just get the red icon above her head. Please help!!
Are you clicking on the right statue? Its The thinking man statue
Hi. Several of my sims don’t go to work even when they are employed and finished their work level. I tried quitting their jobs and applying for new jobs or going back to their old ones but still they cannot go to work. The suitcase icon does’nt appear anymore when it’s time to work. Other sims are doing fine with their works.
I have this problem too sometimes! My teen wouldn’t go to school, I aged him and now he goes to work fine.
There isn’t much I can suggest to fix this but hopefully this is something that EA will sort out in the future
Thanks. How do I do the Practice making film in a neighbor’s town task?
Using a video camera
If I make my Teen Idol an Adult I suspect she will lose her Teen Idol Status and have to start over with some other hobby. Will I be able to make another one of my teens an Idol? I’m just not sure I want to do this until I know what to expect.
Yes once the teen is an adult you can make another sim the teen idol
Thank you. Baking a cake now.
How do I play frisbee with a dog? I have played with the dog for an hour but the task has not yet completed. why?
You need to buy a frisbee from the pet section and click on it to play frisbee
Hi. How do I give my sims personalities? I just had my first senior “move on” and when that box popped up, it said he had no personality and I need to give them personalities to have life dreams. I currently have only two sims with personalities. Another senior and a toddler. And a baby with a life orb who can’t have a personality until it ages up. Second question, when the baby needs to age up will I have to buy another birthday cake?
Click on your sim and click on a wardrobe, click browse clothes and you should be able to give them a personality 🙂
No, you no longer need birthday cakes, they will age when their timer is up
How can you see if your sims have a personality or not?
they will appear in the life dreams menu
Hey, I’m wondering if its just me, but is anyone else having problems having your sims go to a neighbors house? I just noticed that we get new points (sp) , but everytime I try to go to a neighbors house to do the social quest it won’t allow me to. It sends my sims right back to their house. Not sure if it’ll pass soon, hopefully someone else has experienced this?
Yep, lots of people have told me about this glitch, I’m sure EA must know about it by now so hopefully it will be fixed soon!
hi!! i have a problem i cant go on party boat.what can i do???
You may have to relog into Facebook if you are using Facebook, if not the issue may fix on its own 🙂
Ok, so I am trying to complete the preparing for preteens quest, and everything I’ve read says that you have to build a simtown elementary school. But when I go to build the school, it says that I have to complete the preparing for preteens quest first….what in the world is happening here? How can I complete a quest if one of the tasks can’t be done until the quest is complete??
You need to wait until you get the goal to build it,the completing the quest tick box really means you need to complete all the goals until you get the build goal before you can build the school
Did I miss this post, but… is horse riding a new hobbie in Sims FreePlay?
yes there is horse tricks, showjumping and vaulting
you didn’t miss the posts because they aren’t up yet- I forgot to write down what the level 5 horse tricks was called so that one will be up when I’ve done that and I’m still on the showjumping one right now 🙂
I’ve got a serious issue here, trying to figure it out but just can’t find out what to do :-\
So, i’m in my 2nd weekly mystery box quest, 95⅝ from getting my second key, I have 5 days left. I’m on level 13 on NEED OF STEED quest. To finish my weekly quest I need to build a swimming pool but I still have to finish NEED OF STEED, than TODDLERS, than ALL GOING SWIMMINGLY. I will never make it in 5 days… I cant understand how I got this weekly task if i haven’t reached the pool level… Its frustrating and feels like something is wrong with the order of the quests….please any idea how to work ir out?
Tnx
You can skip it with LPs, once you have completed all the quests you will be able to complete the weekly goals without any problem, there isn’t anything wrong they just give a random selection of goals to all players regardless of where you are in the game.
Hey, tnx for the replay. Feel stupid for not thinking about it myself 🙂 but still, tasks should be doable, and using LP should be optional not “a must”. Anyway, won’t I miss the prize if I skip the swimming pool task?? I’m suppose to get 2 keys (I’m saving them all)
Well the tasks are doable once you have completed all the quests. Nope you shouldn’t miss the prize, you might get another goal or it will give you the key 🙂
