Beginner's Guide: Navigating the camera

NAVIGATING THE CAMERA

The first part of the tutorial is learning how to pan the camera. Panning only means moving the camera or view to a different location. Just touch and hold (don't let go) anywhere in the screen and move your finger toward the part that you wish to explore. You can move to the left or right, up or down.

Or you can rotate the camera clockwise or counterclockwise.

Zoom in or out.

That's it!

Beginner's Guide: Buying / Selling / Moving Items

BUYING / SELLING / MOVING ITEMS During the course of your game, you will be buying, selling and moving items a lot, so, here's how to do it. Let's have buying a toilet as our first example. See the icon of a chair and a lamp right there? Click it to access the Home Store where you can buy items for your sim's house. Choose the furniture tab on the upper left side and then click on bathroom tab to see the items for your sim's bathroom. At this level (level 1), you only have one for each bathroom items. As you level up, more items will be unlocked and available in the home store. For now, let's choose the Stains Bros. Toilet by clicking on it. To move the toilet, tap on the Home Store, just like when you are buying items. To position the toilet to your desired location, just tap on the object, click and hold the circle with four arrows, and drag to where you want the toilet to be. Notice the toilet is highlight...

Beginner's Guide: What is the maximum number of sims I can have and how do I unlock them?

Perhaps one of the many reasons why gamers prefer The Sims Freeplay over The Sims Mobile is the ability to have more than 4 playable sims in your town. The Sims Mobile allows you up to 4 sims only, while in The Sims Freeplay, you can have a maximum of 55 sims, but without VIP perks, you can only have up to 34 sims. You can add one new sim at VIP Level 6, 8, and 10; and 4 more sims at VIP Level 15 which gives you 7 additional sims with your town limit totalling to 41 sims. Check out below table to know how and when you can unlock sims in the game. LEVEL SIM UNLOCKED?

Beginner's Guide: Caring For Your Sims

Just like us humans, your sims have basic needs that you have to fulfill in order for them to become "inspired" (you'll know your sims are inspired once you see green sparkles around your sim and the cupcake icon found just above the needs bar stops flashing) and have the energy to work, perform tasks or hobbies, and to earn more than an "uninspired" sim would. 1. HUNGER To fulfill a preteen, teen and adult sim's hunger, all you have to do is tap on a fridge, a meal cooked by a sim, or a Thanksgiving Banquet (it's a dining table found in the Dining Room tab of the Home Store) and pick from the choices what to give your sim. For an infant and toddler, tap on an adult sim to be fed. 2. BLADDER To empty a sim's bladder, just tap on a toilet and let your sim use it. 3. ENERGY To fulfill energy, let your sim sleep on a bed or sit on a sofa or chair, or have a coffee by tapping on a coffee machine or tea set. 4. HYGIENE To tidy up yo...
