This years Halloween update is coming to The Sims Mobile!
Here is the info from the official blog post and don’t forget to check out my video with all the details of what’s coming plus some early access content!
“Sul Sul,
Magic and mischief collide this Halloween in The Sims Mobile! Your Sims can become the half-witch and wizard of their nightmares as they play tricks on friends at the spookiest party of the year or disguise them in vampire costumes as you go treating for candy. Enjoy a feast of live events to uncover new magical rewards that can transform your home into a haunted mansion for Halloween!
Gameplay Action Changes
We’ve made some permanent (and exciting) improvements to the way you play The Sims Mobile! Here at Firemonkeys, the team are always listening to your feedback and working hard on ways to improve so we can be the best Sims experience on mobile. Thanks to our passionate players in our community (we’re looking at you!), we’ve made changes to our basic ‘actions’ gameplay mechanic to make the time you spend in Briny Heights even more seamless. Now you can spend more time doing the things you love with your Sims!
Currently, when your Sim undertakes actions during events, quests and around their home, you would have seen a pink and white star icon to tap on an object. The animations of your Sim used to play for 5 seconds and then you would have seen a green tick above their head, encouraging you to collect rewards.
The new changes:
● We’ve completely removed the green ticks to help create perfect screenshot moments
● Collection of rewards is now automatic and occurs at the beginning of the action.
● Sim will continue the animation indefinitely until you select a new action, whenever you want!
● There is no change to energy costs, so you can spend your energy any way you like
● This will permanently impact the way you play Sweet Treat Showdown, Treasure Hunt and Eco
Workshop events, Wumples and other limited time quests, even smaller things like sitting on a couch!
The end result of this change is that you can play through events and do actions with your Sims at your own pace! You can perform actions quickly if you just want to use your Sims’ energy, or you can take it slow and enjoy the animations without worrying about the green tick getting in the way! At this stage, “risky” actions have not changed (pink and white sunglasses icon), they will still have a tick for now. Keep an eye out for more information from our team in future updates as we continue to implement more changes!
