The Sims Freeplay- Best Another Sim Town Houses to Visit

weightlessmagicLeave a comment

Another Simtown has had a very big makeover in recent updates making it much easier to complete many Social Tasks in the default town (but impossible to complete others!) In this post I will be listing the best houses to visit in Another Simtown that contain the majority of the items you will need to complete Social Tasks so you don’t have to keep moving houses as well as tables that show the items available in each house so you can easily find something specific.

I will be talking about these houses as numbers as it is the easiest way to explain their location, the images below show each houses location in Simtown and the Mysterious Island.

Simtown (houses 1-25):

Mysterious Island (houses 26-37):


Which items are missing? None of the houses have a firepole, preteen bookshelf or ghost hunting items.

Items in all houses can be found in the tables below, yellow highlight means it can be found in that house or it is the best star rated item in that row:

Below are the most important houses you will need to visit as these all contain items you can only find in one house:

1foosball, dog and frisbee
2movie camera and woodworking bench
3fashion studio and trampoline
17kettle, fire hydrant, auction podium, telescope and soccer ball
22cat
363 star study desk

Using the above houses you can find most of the items but some of them are missing from these houses or contain items with a lower star rating so we need to visit two more houses to find everything we need 25 and 27.

To conclude you will need to visit houses 1, 2, 3, 17, 22, 25, 27 and 36 to find all the items you need.

Watch my video to see where the most important items can be found in these 8 houses:

THE SIMS FREEPLAY

The Sims Freeplay- Community Market

weightlessmagic38 Comments

AD | Early Access to Beta Provided by EA/ Firemonkeys (Presented by EA Creator Network) may differ from actual version

A big change is coming to The Sims Freeplay in the Family Farmhouse: Spring to Action update available from 28th April 2025, instead of gardening on our home lots we now have a dedicated space to grow called the Community Market, in this post I will explain how it works.

The Community Market can be found near the park:

At the Community Market you will receive requests from customers, you need to grow the items they require to complete their requests and earn simoleons.

Clicking on a customer directly or on the stall where Patty Cakes is will show you all the customers and what each of them requires as well as your reward:

If you already have enough of an item it will be green with a tick, once all items are ticked off you can click fulfill to receive the reward:

There are 10 garden patches here you can use to grow but when you first start only one is unlocked, you will need to level up to unlock the other 9 and then use simoleons to unlock them:

Garden patchLevel unlockCostTime taken

25S5001 minute
36S1,0002 minutes
410S5,0008 minutes
515S10,00016 minutes

830S75,0002 hours 8 minutes
935S100,0004 hours 16 minutes
1040S125,0008 hours 32 minutes

To plant you need to click on the garden patch and drag the seeds to a garden patch:

Any sim who is not busy will appear at the Community Market to grow those seeds. If all your sims are busy you will not be able to plant.

If you want to see the cost of the seeds or how long it takes to grow click and hold when you click on the seeds and this information will appear:

Below I have included a table with all the seeds you can unlock, the levels they unlock at, cost to plant them and time taken to grow:

Once the time is up the produce will be ready to collect, click on the fully grown items and the produce will go into the storage shed:

There is only so much space available to store items. If Bree is a customer she will reward you with tools needed to increase the storage:

You can also sell excess items from the storage shed:

For those who are interested I have included the sell price for each item before and after this change. The sell price is just how much you get by selling through storage, not from completing customer requests:

If you do not have enough items you can fulfill using LP or skip an order with the bin icon, you will then need to wait for the next order to arrive:

Can I still garden at home? Garden patches are still available but can only be used for growing Simoleon Sprouts, Life Point Lotus and Social Point Flowers.

However you will unlock fully grown versions of each vegetable when you unlock the seeds at the community market to place on house lots to use as decor:

If you have any plants growing or had any stored gardening seeds when you update you will be rewarded the xp or simoleons from these.

The aim of this is to shorten the amount of time it takes to earn simoleons from gardening, I do agree that you can earn a lot more simoleons in a short space of time but it is not very useful for players who cannot be on the game as much and we can no longer earn simoleons planting overnight! When I tested this feature I also found it difficult to earn enough experience points to level up without those gardening XP. Time will tell if this actually is a good way to earn more money. 

Let me know your thoughts on this new feature!

What else is new?

  • This update is the first of the ‘Freeplay Series‘ which means more than one update will have the same theme so Spring into Life is the first Family Farmhouse theme update which will continue into the next update. This allows the makers to add more items with a similar theme to the game without being restricted by how much they can fit into one update.
  • The in game lighting has had an update called ‘Enhanced Lighting‘ which improves the lighting on house lots, you will be able to see light streaming through windows and the warm glow of fireplaces as well as the shadows moving through different times of the day:

This feature can be turned on and off in the options settings, under graphics:

NOTE: older devices will not have this feature, you will only see the classic (original) lighting option

Lights also have more options when you click on them. Auto lights are now called sensor lights, you can turn all lights in a house on or off at the same time and night lights turn on at 7pm and off at 7am:

  • The Paperboy will be giving double rewards between 13th-17th March, 28th- 31st March and 17th-23rd April
