Genie

''This article is about the Genie that came with The Sims 2: FreeTime. For the article on the genie that came with The Sims: Livin' Large, see The Genie.''

The Genie was introduced in FreeTime and is found in the "Dusty Old Lamp". He grants 3 wishes to the household (not per Sim). The Genie can grant wishes such as money or even resurrect dead Sims. The Genie has violet skin and wears a waistcoat. After the 3 wishes are made, he disappears. (Even if all three are failures.)

To be awarded the Genie, several Sims in the household must have enthusiasm in a hobby and high Lifetime Aspiration, which will summon the Gypsy Matchmaker to deliver the lamp. The chance of getting the lamp is rare, however. There is a 2% chance (per day) the matchmaker will bring the lamp for each Sim with a 7 or higher in their Lifetime Aspiration (so if two Sims had that score, the chance would be 4%). However, in Desiderata Valley's Aspir Household, there is already a Genie Lamp in the house.
