Sci Fi Shuttle

The Sci fi Shuttle is one of the houses which can be bought using LP's. The cost varies depending on the timing and your position in the game. More the worth of your city costlier it will be to buy this,

Sci Fi Shuttle

As far as the size of the house is concerned much needs to be desired. It has a large living room with a kitchen and a bathroom. And thats about it. Although the stuff installed in the house resonates with the theme of the house and looks really cool but it ought to be bigger.

There is a huge space left out for expansion and this should be utilized to add few rooms.

Lets start with the living room
Sci Fi Shuttle -Living Room


  1. OTT TV 3 star 
  2. PEBKAC Pro Computer - again 3 star
  3. T1000 Phone - 3 star
  4. Anti Gravity Dining Chair - 3 star rating. It has a set of two chairs with the table.
  5. C 1000 couch - 3 star rating just in front of the bookshelf
  6. Matrix bookcase - 3 star . Two bookcases separated by a decoration item
  7. Sleep-O-Matic 9000 - 3 star. It has set of 2 beds which are white and blue going with the overall theme of the sic fi shuttle.
  8. Chairtronic 5000- Set of 2 chairs facing the television set and a fancy table between the two.
  9. Future Audio Sound System - 2 star



Sci Fi Shuttle -Living Room

2 Sci Fi Floor Lamp- very stylish
Onion Blue Wardrobe - in between the two beds


Sci Fi Shuttle -Living Room

The room has 3 doors which open and close like a elevator door. It is another cool feature of this home. There is a main door and one each to the bathroom and kitchen


Now talking about the Kitchen

Sci Fi Shuttle - Kitchen


  1. Dr Freeze Fridge - 3 Star rating
  2. Cook Master 5000- 3 Star rating

White and Blue counter.

Not much space left in that kitchen and there is no lighting. Guess you are not supposed to cook at night time :)

Now moving our attention to the bathroom

Sci Fi Shuttle - Bathroom


  1. Photon Shower- 3 star
  2. Bathinator 1000- 3 star bathtub
  3. Sink-o-matic - 3 star sink
  4. Defcon 6 Toilet - 3 star rating toilet


4 Big trees in the backyard which are equidistant from each other fill rest of the area in the house. If you ask me that is the biggest let down in this otherwise interesting house.

Sims Freeplay- The Mysterious Island Quest


Today I will take you through the different stages of a fairly important quest The Mysterious Island Quest. How to get past the Mysterious Island Quest? Its a 10 step walkthrough to achieve it. Although the prize you unlock is just a statue called Island Sentinal Replica which really useless if you ask me


To complete this quest I got close to 3 days. Time taken in the following tasks take varied amount of times depending upon the level you are on and the star rating of equipments you are using to complete the task. Higher the star rating lesser is the time required to complete.


Step 1 Watch the news. 

There's a story on TV about a new island that's been discovered off the coast of Sim Towm! Check it out! Watch the news on TV.

This is a straightforward task and don't take much of time. Just send any sim in need of entertainment and watch the news.
Mysterious Island Quest- Watch the news
Step 2 Find the Mysterious Island on Globe

They say the new island is going to be the perfect place to build HOUSEBOATS. How exciting!


The Mysterious Island Quest- Find Mysterious island on a Globe
Note: The World Globe can be found in the decoration section of Home Store.

Its a ugly huge globe taking up a lot of space in my already small room to block the movement. But you got to do it. Looks something like below in the photo. under Home Store->Furniture-> Decorations

The Mysterious Island Quest- The World Globe
Step 3 Download Schematics on a Computer

Just find a computer and waste some time over the task. I think it will be 10 minutes task  give or take some.
The Mysterious Island Quest- Download Schematics on Computer

Step 4 Post Bridge Schematics using a Letter Box

Just take any of your sim to the front of the house and click the letter box to drop this junky schematics into it. Seconds not more than that for this task.
The Mysterious Island Quest- Post Bridge Schematics using a Letter Box
Step 5  Call the Construction Team on the Phone

Another 5 to 10 minute task. Just take one of your sim in need of talking (2 cloud) and call the crazy Construction Team.
 The Mysterious Island Quest- Call Construction Team on Phone
Step  6 Watch Found on TV

Spend some small amount of time on this task. Should be couple of minutes I would say.

Step 7 Drink Herbal Tea

As if very important!! Well if you haven't already got it (nobody needs it otherwise) you have to buy a Tea Pot from the kitchen section of the Home Store.

The Mysterious Island Quest- Drink Herbal Tea

Step 8 Call The Construction Team on Phone

As if they care, the next task wants you to bother the hardworking construction team of the bridge to tell them what happened in the blockbuster FOUND TV serial. What a bad story line I must say. Just grab the phone and task lasts for few minutes.

The Mysterious Island -Call The Construction Team on Phone

Step 9 Bake some Croissants

While the construction workers toil hard to complete the bridge you start celebration preparation and bake some croissants. Not to far now baby

The Mysterious Island -Bake some Croissants
Note: Go to the Cooking stove and instead of Cooking on left chose the option Baking on the right

Step 10 Build the Mysterious Island Bridge

Well finally the time has arrived. Just go to the north of the map and click on build the Bridge. Only issue is you need to have a good amount. That is what we waste most of the time in this quest. So my advice is  START SAVING MONEY FOR THIS FINAL TASK TO BUILD BRIDGE.

Build the Mysterious Island Bridge


Now you may or may not end up with the Sentinal Replica. But that is not important . More important thing is you got a new map on the other side of the bridge uncovered.

The Mysterious Island Quest- The prize

HAPPY SIMING!! Next quest in line is RAIDERS OF LOST ARTIFACT

RINGLETS OF FIRE

In Sims Freeplay there is an emergency quest which popped up out of nowhere which is named as RINGLETS OF FIRE. It was mentioning the fact that "Sims have been spotted on TV with LONG HAIR!"  Selecting Yes removed all the items from the fashion hobby collection.




Another waste of time but this emergency quest RINGLETS OF FIRE will allow you to have long hair styles for your ladies.The time limit to me was 6:17:30. Do you really care about it. I don't think so. But lets go ahead and see what  is needed to complete it.

Step 1 Talk to a sim  on phone. Approximately 1 minute.
Step 2 It sounds ridiculous but your Sim's friend told them they spotted a Sim on TV with Long Hair. Spot the Long haired sims on TV

Spot Long haired sims on TV















Step 3 EMAIL the LONG HAIRED CELEBRITY SIMS. There are so many Sims with long flowing locks on TV! Strange!. These long hairs have achieved the follically impossible, but there dress sense is terrible. Could you trade your fashionable clothes for their magnificent manes. Find out.

EMAIL the LONG HAIRED CELEBRITY SIMS















Step 4 Buy a Fashion Studio. Even if you already own one buy a new one. Long Haired Sims are interested in trade! Best Dressed for Best Tressed! Buy a Fashion Studio from Promotion R Us store on the town map  so that your sims can get started.


Buy a Fashion Studio

















Step 5 Create 1 Fashion Design
 The long Hairs wants a piece of fashionable clothing as a sign of good faith before they give up the secrets of their hirsute scalps. Have your sim design one line of clothing.
Create 1 Fashion Design















Step 6 Create a complete outfit set. And here starts the real work. This says Great Start! Those fresh follicles are but a whisker away!Now make a complete outfit set from fashion studio. Fashion 3 parts for the Long hairs to make a complete outfit.

Create a complete outfit set















At the competition of this herculean effort for the quest RINGLETS OF FIRE i got the first Long Hairstyle

Ringlets of Fire- Full Fringe Pony Tail 















Step 7 Create 2nd complete outfit


How to complete RINGLETS OF FIRE Fast

1. Put everyone and i mean every possible Sim to work. Below I show i used all the free space in Sims House to set up a design Studio. 














2. Atleast one of the sim should be level 6 at fashion designing. Otherwise get him to do the 6 hours and 12 Hours task to get to reach that level.

3. All other sims can do the 10 minute task and churn out different fashion sets.

4. Remember first one may take couple of days. Once you complete 12 fashion items once, next sets will become easier to achieve.
5. After completing each set don't forget to press reset button, otherwise the fashion items won't count

Reset and Start a new collection


At the end

Ringlets of Fire- Completed

Medieval Castle

Today I will take you through my latest buying in Sims FreePlay. The Medieval Castle. As the name sounds its a castle.. but with a medieval touch written all over it. Lot of basic amenities are missing in this one. But this one is for some spooky stuff.

This one can be found next to the Pro Skater's Dream Pad in the Standard Residence section. Let's find out whether its worth it to buy this house which is expensive then the Dream Pad option in Sims FreePlay standard residence.


First of all just the areal view from all 4 corners. It has a rustic feel to it which is quite consistent throughout the different sections of the house. In Sims FreePlay Medieval Castle is probably the only residence to have this kind of consistent touch in the decor of the house,


One strange thing I have noticed about this house is that if I stay here for long and one of the sim is not doing anything, it starts to get scary. There will be lightning and a horror movie kind of noises come into scare the sim. Put the sim to do some basic action and it goes away. So far I didn't notice any harm done.

For this Sims Freeplay Residence of Medieval Castle the house can be divided into 6 sections.

Bedroom


The Bedroom is a small one but has all the expensive stuff. 

  • 3 Star Oriental 4 post Bed
  • 2 Elegant Chest  and 1 Elegant Wardrobe to browse clothes and an elegant Table Lamp
  • Couple of  3 Star French Living Chair to rest
  • An Elegant Bookcase which is a 2 star item
  • To go with it has a wooden flooring


Dining Hall

Its kind of weird but it has a set of 3 tables accompanying 6 chairs.

  • Set of four 3 Star Chinese Chair to rest in Sims FreePlay.
  • Couple of Pharaoh's Dining Chair. Again a 3 star item to rest in Sims FreePlay.
  • Elegant Tall Lamp

Kitchen

This one is again filled with the expensive stuff so that sims can gain high XP in less time.

  • 3 Star Ice Man Fridge
  • 3 Star Cook Master 5000 for cooking and Baking
  • And nice looking counter top to go with it



Bathroom


This is the only place where compromise is done in terms of items put in here. And a strange  Bookshelf to go with it

  • 2 star Elegant BathTub
  • 2 Star Vintage Sink
  • 2 Star Porcelain Bus' Toilet
  • 2 Star Elegant Bookcase


Study Room (with Chess Table)

As if the house was not already filled with so many bookshelf's this one offers few more
  • 2 Elegant Tall Lamps for lighting
  • 1 star Chess Board to play chess.
  • Couple of 2 Star Elegant Dining Chair to play chess
  • Couple of 2 Star Elegant Bookcase
  • Another 2 Star Brown Bookcase



Guest Waiting Room

This one is like waiting room or another dining room. 

  • Set of four 3 Star Chinese Dining Chair
  • couple of 3 Star Chinese Living Chair


At the middle of the last 2 sections is the decorative lawn which has some really spooky stuff.


Although at the time of writing I am still at Level 15, so I have not seen anything weird, but this one for sure has some ghost sitting somewhere. Do let me know how do you like the house or any other questions about the house.
