Speaking of The Sims..

I LOVE this game! But I don't have the time for it now and I have no idea where all the CDs are.. How I wish they can have The Sims application on facebook! They should right? It'll even be better than Pets Society.

Was talking to hubby about this just now and I told him how I played the game when I was in secondary school.

I discovered on accident that my characters can actually die. And after they do, an urn or a tombstone will appear. That sparked my interest to build a haunted house in that neighbourhood. So I had a few methods to do it, and all methods work towards 1 goal; to collect tombstones and urns in the most convenient way possible. (Well I'll need many these props to stay with my theme won't I?



  1. Set them on fire.
    The 1st character died through an accident that happened in the kitchen. But of course I restarted the game so I'll be brought back to where the game was last saved. Anyway, I tried getting them to cook again and realised it's taking too much of my time before they are dead, and they might not necessarily die cos they fire could die off or be put out by their family members (I think). So I improvised my plan. I built a very small house, a 2-by-2-tile house in the yard and place a stove inside. Then I get my character to go inside and cook. Afterwards, I removed the door *cackle*. To save time, I clicked on the fast forward mode so they can die faster. Got greedy afterwards, I let the entire family in and burn them in one shot. I got my urns and tombstones fast!!
  2. Drown them.
    I built a pool, unlike the room in the yard, this pool is a rather big one. I let the entire family plunge into a pool without ladder for them to get out. Again, to save time, I fast forwarded the motion and they all drowned. The props I needed will appear beside the pool.
My idea of the haunted house is one with countless tombstones and urns all over.. but on another occasion, when another family of victims moved into my "slaughter house", there were translucent images of the previous few families haunting the house!! I was so amazed that even this was programmed in The Sims!! I forgot the reactions of the then alived characters.. I suppose they were pretty frightened and the emotion factor experienced a slight decrease. It didn't bother me anyway, cos they are still gonna die like how the others did. LOL. Sounds pretty sick huh.. but come on, it's all in the name of FUN and curiousity. *hahaha*

Hubby finds it amusing how so many weird ideas can be produced in my small head. I just went googling for it and I chanced upon an interesting site, http://games.sharing-info.com/2008/06/25/nine-way-to-make-your-sims-die/ . Pretty interesting, some ghosts scream *lol*.

Presenting to you a picture of Caesar and me, taken my Wilson.

Dog on duty. Anyone drowning? Or has anyone drowned?

That's so funny, I did the exact same thing. I would make a family of 8 and put them in a small room completely surrounded by fireplaces, dry bushes, and no doors, and make them constantly use the fireplace. After they all died I'd move in a new house until I gathered up enough tombstones to make a nice neat graveyard lol. Can still do it on Sims 3!

Great!! I'm glad I found somebody to share my interest with dying sims..haha. When I brought this subject up to my friends and colleagues and they were commenting the sadism of it all. But I like. :D

Have you tried starving your sims? Coop your sim in a small room without a door and go do the other stuffs. This will be a slowwwww and painful (and guilt-ridden) way to see your sims die, because they will keep pleading for help (need to pee, need to eat)...

I'm on The Sims 3 now. Hopefully there are funnier ways to let a sim die. :x
