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

Some times are really off/ different goals show for me, why is this?
This will be because the quest has been updated recently, I try my best to keep these posts up to date but it is difficult as I cannot redo every quest each time the game is updated. If you notice any changes please let me know so I can update the post

The next quest is Money Grows On Trees which unlocks the simoleon sprout

The Sims Freeplay- Careers: Scientist

July 22, 2014March 30, 2020 weightlessmagic1 Comment

Scientist is one of 8 careers your adult sims can have (not including profession careers) and this post explains all you need to know about this career.

How do I start this career?

You firstly need to build the science lab and then you will be able to select scientist from the list of careers.

Once your sim is a scientist you can click on the pulsing suitcase on the simtracker to send them to work once a day. During this time you won’t see them at work and you cannot go to the science lab, on the simtracker it will just say they are at work, once the time is up they will arrive back at home and be rewarded with the simoleons and XP they earned for that shift. The more they work, the higher level they will reach in that career and the more money they will earn.

You can then send your sims to work again at/after 12am as it is the start of a new day.

Still unsure? This post explains how to get a job, send your sims to work and how to quit

What hours do they work?

You can send your sims to work anytime of the day for 8 hours, once they finish their shift you will receive the simoleons and XP they have earned. When they reach a new level in that career a pop up will appear to show you how much they will earn for the next shift.

What are the levels and how much money and XP do you earn for a day at work?

	Title	Simoleons	Experience Points (XP)
1	Test Subject	1,060	420
2	Lab Assistant	1,160	854
3	Science Teacher	1,260	1,025
4	Inventor	1,380	1,320
5	Mad Scientist	1,440	1,560

How do I find out what level my sim is on?

You can see this information in the occupations (career) tab. This tab is where you give your sims careers to begin with. Here you can see your sims career and the level they are on and if you click on the symbol of the career you will be able to see how much your sims earn and you can quit jobs from here too.

Which career earns the most money? Find out here

Can I increase my sims career level from home?

Yes you can buy the telescope from the promotions r us store or hobby and career items tab of the home store. It costs S3,490 and once placed in your sims garden you can cloud watch (during the day) or stargaze (at night) for 3 hours. During this time your career bar will increase like it does when they go to work (but slower) If you don’t want to buy the telescope you can also use the chess board in the park to play chess for 10 minutes, this will increase it too!

The Sims Freeplay- Hobbies: Toddler Playhouse

July 22, 2014March 23, 2020 weightlessmagic64 Comments

IN DA CLUBHOUSE QUEST – TODDLER PLAYHOUSE – TODDLER SIMS ONLY – PRIZES: TODDLER PLAYHOUSE AND 6LP

Once you complete the In Da Clubhouse Quest one of your toddler sims can use the playhouse at the swim center to complete this hobby.

When they first click on the playhouse they will get one option:

2 Little Bears- 50 minutes

You will need to find the 3 different toys on the 2 little bears option to unlock the cat holiday option, once you find those 3 toys you unlock the monster mansion option to find those 3 toys, once you have those 3 you unlock the last option which is supersim hideout, when you find those 3 toys you will complete the collection:

2 Little Bears- 50 minutes
Cat Holiday- 1 hour
Monster Mansion- 2 hours
Supersim Hideout- 4 hours

Once you complete the collection for the first time you can find the toys in any order but you will still need to do each option to find the different toys to complete each row

NOTE: only one toddler can complete this hobby the first time, once you unlock the playhouse you can have as many toddlers as you want doing this hobby, each using their own playhouse.

OPTION	FIND	TO UNLOCK:
2 LITTLE BEARS	Grinn N. Bearit StronglikeBear Simulator Bear	Catsphere, Reservoir Cat and Citizen Cat USING THE CAT HOLIDAY OPTION
CAT HOLIDAY	Catsphere Reservoir Cat Citizen Cat	Simzilla, The Wolfsim and Doctor Frankensim USING THE MONSTER MANSION OPTION
MONSTER MANSION	Simzilla The Wolfsim Doctor Frankensim	Captain Sim Town, Judge Sim and Supersim USING THE SUPERSIM HIDEOUT OPTION
SUPERSIM HIDEOUT	Captain Sim Town Judge Sim Supersim	*You can now complete the collection!*

After the time has passed come back and click the exclamation mark above your sims head to find one of the toy collectibles in that row. You still level up in this hobby but the hobby level up percentage isn’t important as the toy collectibles don’t unlock depending on your level, when you finish a row of toy collectibles you will unlock the ability to find the next set of toys in the next row.

The table below shows you the level up reward that your sims will receive when they level up in this hobby:

LEVEL	TITLE	1st TIME LEVEL UP REWARD
1	Reservoir Cat	–
2	Cat Person	250XP
3	Citizen Cat	500XP
4	Lasagne Ninja Cat	S750
5	Simshire Cat	10,000 Town Value
6	Catspeare	1LP

You won’t find a new collectible each time, you will get repeats, if this happens just keep going, you will find them eventually! If it is still taking too long you can use the lucky spin on the row where you cannot find the item, this will cost LPs, when you click on the LP button it will clear the row and give you a random collectible on that row so you aren’t guaranteed a new item (you will get back any other collectibles you already had in that row) Need to earn some LPs to use the lucky spin?

The completed toddler playhouse collection is shown below, once you complete the collection you need to click ‘start a new collection/ play again’ at the top of the hobby collection screen, this clears the board so you can complete the collection again to earn more rewards (you will only get the option to restart the hobby collection when you have completed the collection):

The first time you complete a row you will unlock a new row of toys to collect, further times you will earn XPs when you complete a row in the hobby but to complete the collection you need to find all 12 of the collectibles

The rewards for completing this collection are the playhouse and 6LP:

The first time you complete this hobby you will unlock the playhouse for your toddlers to complete the hobby at home, you can find it in the toddler section and it costs 20LP

From the second time onwards each time you complete the collection you will earn 6LP

The Sims Freeplay- Getting Married

July 19, 2014September 2, 2020 weightlessmagic76 Comments

This is a guide to getting married in The Sims Freeplay, it can be a bit confusing so hopefully this guide will help! Firstly you need to unlock the ability for your sims to get married, you do this by completing the Love is in the Air Quest which unlocks from level 7 (you do marry two sims in this quest so this post is just a refresher guide)

If you complete that quest in the time limit you will unlock the wedding dresses and suits as well so future sims can get married in style!

Once the quest is complete adult and senior sims can get married, to do this you need to select the romantic options at each relationship level until you get the option to propose marriage. The table below shows how long it takes to reach the next stage:

ROMANTIC LEVELS	OPTIONS & TIME TAKEN
Strangers			Be Romantic 1 minute
Strangers			1 time
Budding Romance		Kiss Hand 3 seconds	Be Romantic 1 minute
Budding Romance		18 times	3 times
Date		Kiss Cheek 2 seconds	Be Romantic 1 minute
Date		36 times	6 times
Partner	Propose Marriage 6 seconds	Be Romantic 1 minute	Woohoo 5 minutes
Partner	1 time
Engaged	Be Romantic 1 minute	Woohoo 5 minutes	Get Married 6 seconds (once engaged bar is full)
Engaged	6 times	4 times	1 time
Married		Be Romantic 1 minute	Woohoo 5 minutes

For more detailed information about all Relationships check out my post here

When you get the option to Propose Marriage you will get a list of rings to choose from, starting from the cheapest to the most expensive:

Vending Machine Dinosaur Ring- S1,750
Mood Ring- S8,050
Silver Ring- 3LP
White Gold Ring- 6LP
Eternity Ring- 10LP

Which ring should I choose? I always go for the most expensive, mainly because they usually say no if you go for the cheap rings! Why waste more money to just be rejected?

Don’t have 10LP for the ring? Check out my post here on making LP quickly

Once they accept the proposal they will be engaged!

They will then need to be romantic to each other 6 times or woohoo 4 times before they will get the option to Get Married

Your sims can get married anywhere in simtown so you get to choose the house they live in when you select the get married option:

They will take the surname of the sim whose house they will be living in so choose carefully

They will have a quick kiss and then will be married!

Can my sim marry more than one sim? No this isn’t possible, your sims need to get a divorce to marry another sim.

The Getting Divorced post can be found here
