List of Easter eggs in The Sims

An Easter egg is a message hidden in the object code of a program, movie, book, CD, DVD, or video game as a joke, intended to be found by persons disassembling or browsing the code.

There are many Easter eggs in The Sims series. Some of these are hidden in the actual game play and others are hidden in the code.

The Sims

 * The Yeti from the Vacation expansion pack appears on the TV screen if the cartoons channel is selected. If Superstar is installed, a Betty Yeti film-poster is added to the game.
 * In the neighborhood screen, the Loch Ness Monster occasionally appears in the water for a few seconds. The monster also appears in Downtown and Vacation Island.
 * There are several refrences to the game's creator, Will Wright, including the doll house and the "Whack-A-Will" game from the Sims Vacation.
 * The baby doll souvenir from The Sims Vacation bears a striking resemblence to the default look of babies in The Sims 2.
 * The "rosebud" cheat maybe a reference to the movie "Citizen Kane." It's also the name of one of the characters in the movie "Air Buddies."
 * If there is a Christmas tree, fireplace, and a table with cookies in the same room late at night, Santa Claus will come, and leave the family a present.
 * There are some real people starring in The Sims, for example Drew Carey, Marilyn Monroe, Andy Warhol, Avril Lavigne, and Christina Aguilera.
 * A highway was named after Gunther Goth; it is called the Gunther Goth Highway.
 * There are many Easter eggs with the Crumplebottom family such as the court house next to the Goth Sr home, the prune tree, and the park.

The Sims 2

 * Bella Goth: There are many references to this mysterious Sim in the game. Bella Goth appears on the milk cartons and newspapers in the game. It is rumoured that Bella and her brother Michael are standing in the hot air balloon neighborhood object in the game; others suppose this is the Blonde Bombshell from The Sims: Hot Date expansion pack. Bella appears in many of the decorative photographs of the game, one being a picture of herself named "Bella Squared". She is also a townie in Strangetown. With the Apartment Life expansion, the neighborhood has a statue of Bella holding a PlumbBob. In The Sims 2 for PlayStation 2, the name of a refrigerator is "Chow Bella Bachelor".
 * Onomatology: Several pre-made Sims in the game have names that allude to a meaning. For example, Olive Specter's ghosts, Rigger Mortis and Earl E. DeMise.
 * Hidden Painting: There is a painting hidden within the games files that depicts 18th century couple. The female in the painting closely resembles Glenda the Ghost (an NPC ghost from The Sims Makin' Magic), though the identity of the male is not known.
 * The Pleasant Family on TV: The Pleasant family appears in one of the clips in Sims Broadcasting Network. One of the clips are the Pleasant sisters fighting and the pizza commercial.
 * Freezer Bunny: One of the most common Easter Egg in The Sims 2. It represents a pink bunny cartoon and first appearing on the back of a juice carton in the community lot freezers.
 * Simpsons House: A house on the train table in FreeTime bears a striking resemblance to 742 Evergreen Terrace, the house of the Simpsons family.
 * The Flying Pig: A neighborhood object released with The Sims 2: Open for Business. Appears in neighborhoods with a water tower. It also appears as a decoration on a tree in the FreeTime train table.
 * The Spaceship: A neighborhood object/event released with Pets. When a crashed spaceship is placed in the neighborhood, a spaceship arrives with a searchlight to find the crashed ship.
 * The Spaceship's Number Plate: Says 'anm8er' (It sounds like "animator"). When an abduction occurs on the lot and the UFO comes to return the Sim, the number plate can be seen.
 * Grim Reaper's Bio: When using the  cheat to view the Grim Reaper's bio, it says that his favorite band is Styx.
 * Hidden Lot in Belladonna Cove: There's a hidden lot at the edge of Belladonna Cove, called Watervista Palace. It can only be seen by using the cameraman mode (Tab). It resembles a lot like Baba Yaga's hut.
 * Tree Ring: Player can read many trivial information from the Tree Ring from Bon Voyage. One of the trivia is a reference to all of Don Lothario's lovers; DL+CG, DL+DC, DL+NC, and DL+KL.
 * Career Reward: The Sims 2 logo can be seen on the lower part on the 3rd mat of the Medical career reward.
 * Maxis outfit for girls: In The Sims 2, there is an outfit for girls with Will Wright on front and a Maxis logo on the back.
 * Veronaville Residents' Gender Preference: Using SimPE or another third party editing program to open the character files of several pre-made male Sims in Veronaville (e.g. Kent Capp, Cornwall Capp, Patrizio Monty etc.) reveals that they have a slight gender preference for males at the beginning of the game, despite the fact that they are involved in heterosexual romantic storyline. This is possibly a reference to the ongoing critical debate over the possible sexuality of William Shakespeare, on whose life and plays the neighborhood is based. It could also be referring to the fact that, in Shakespeare's day, only men were allowed to act.
 * Hot Dog Stand Counter: On the counter of the hot dog stand in Apartment Life, players can see some recognizable pictures. The pictures include the photos from the photo album of the Smith family, the Grunt family, the Lothario family, the Broke family, and many more. There are also the pictures of Romeo Monty and Bella Goth.
 * Noticeboard: On one of the noticeboards from University, if the graphic quality is set to high, players can read a pinned paper with words written in alphabet "OPEN" and mirrored "HOUSE".
 * Video Game: A preview of The Sims 3 in its beta version appears as a video game that is shipped with FreeTime.
 * Toy Making Station: One of the toys that can be crafted in Open for Business is Sir Bricks-a-Lot. This is a play on Sir Mix-a-Lot, who is an African-American rapper/songwriter. Of the designs available for the toy, there is one that has a beard/stubble, meant to look like the real-life singer. Additionally, Sir Bricks-a-Lot reappears in The Sims 3: Pets.
 * Chance cards: The chance card for the Master of Ceremonies position in the Entertainment career track refers to The Simmy Award from The Sims: Superstar.
 * Wall lamp: One of the wall lamps is called "Prisoner of Azkalamp". This is a reference to Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, the third novel in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling.

The Urbz: Sims in the City

 * When starting The Urbz: Sims in the City, if the player does not press start at the title screen, the game will play a video. This does not occur in the PS2 version.

 * In the Gamecube version of The Urbz, when going to Blankwood Towers, you will see a dresser that looks like a Nintendo Gamecube which allows Urbz to dress as Darius or Roxanna Moxie.


 * In Kicktail Park, if the player shakes the Ice Cream Machine while he/she is in a bad mood, the hands of a monkey will shake the Urb and kill him/her.


 * There is a special Urb called Bobo. He does not appear in the relationship list (But he is listed on the Call Urb screen) but he can be made to join your crew in which the player can control him. Although he has Central Station clothes, he is treated as a Gasoline Row Urb.

The Sims 2 (Console)

 * In The Sims 2 for Console, when looking the the Comic objects, one can see Darius from The Urbz: Sims in the City.

 * When using a metal detector, a Sim can find a copy of The Urbz: Sims in the City.


 * In the GBA version, when starting the first episode, Daddy Bigbucks will mention that there are gangster buddies back in Miniopolis but no gangs have appeared in The Urbz: Sims in the City.


 * In the PSP version, Bella's secret's will mention that she never loved Mortimer, this is not true because Bella has a high relationship with him and Bella can love him at any time.
 * However, The Sims and The Sims for Console, Bella does not have Lover status with Mortimer by default but they will become lovers if you make her use a romantic social such as Kiss.


 * In The Sims 2 for GBA, Daddy Bigbucks mentions the Goth family and it can be seen when starting a new episode or when finishing it.

The Sims 2 Pets (PSP)

 * When going to Town Square, players may get the message "Today is the Cat Day!". Oddly, this may also appear in The Sims Castaway at random times when looking inside a bottle.

Sims

 * Several of the easter eggs involve the Tragic Clown - first seen in The Sims. His picture appears at the back of the milk carton, replacing Bella Goth. A parody fish has the name the Tragic Clownfish. Tragic Clown's existence is shown in his grave in Pleasant Rest Graveyard.
 * Vincent Skullfinder, from MySims, is a deceased Sim buried in Pleasant Rest Graveyard.
 * The Goth family is incomplete; Gunther's sister, Frida Goth was excluded from the family, however there is a Sim in Goth's graveyard named Lolita Goth and some players believe that she is Gunther's sister, but that is also improbable since Frida died as an elder and Lolita as a young adult, which allowed some players to believe that she is Gunther's ex-wife. For theories see Lolita Goth/theories.
 * In Late Night, there is a possibility that Sims will exclaim, "This place is hotter than Hank Goddard that one time he caught on fire!" when visiting a random hotspot. This is a reference to Hank Goddard, Pauline Wan's fiancee. It is also possible they will exclaim, "This place is as hot as Connor Frio with a bad case of hypothermia."; as a reference to Connor Frio.
 * There is a secret cave on the outskirts of Sunset Valley and Riverview, and inside a log in Appaloosa Plains. By taking a closer look, the player will be able to see two glowing "monster" eyes.

 * When children or teens have a school trip to the graveyard mausoleum, they may receive a painting. The painting has a figure of a ghost with a green color and what appears to be a black coloration in his stomach just to the left of the mausoleum. It is speculated that this reveals a new type of death in an upcoming expansion pack, and that it is most likely a ghost Sim who died of illness as featured in The Sims 2. This may ship with the rumored weather expansion pack for The Sims 3.It is also revealed later that the ghost is the ghost from Supernatural trailer.
 * In The Sims 3: Pets, there is a painting called "Rainbows! Lasers! Cat!" which is a possible reference to the popular internet meme, | Nyan Cat.
 * There is also a painting/poster called Grilled Cheese! in n The Sims 3: Pets which shows a cat thinking of a grilled cheese sandwich. It seems to be a nod to i can haz cheezburger? fad, and a reference to the Grilled Cheese aspiration from The Sims 2: Nightlife.
 * One of the paintings a Sim can create is Sandro Botticelli's The Birth of Venus.

Objects

 * The Lucky Door is said to be made by Mr. McMann, from Pleasantview after he won in Bingo seven days in a row.


 * There is another door called Mags' Door, the door is in the style of the 50s and it might be a reference to Mags Newbie.

Its description is "There's an archway that knows, if you're wealthy with gold, then you're buying an Archway to Heaven". This is a reference to the first few lines of "Stairway to Heaven"; "There's a lady who's sure/All that glitters is gold/And she's buying a Stairway to Heaven".

The Red Faction reference is slightly odd, considering EA had nothing to do with the game; it is published by THQ and designed by Volition.
 * When receiving a certificate for mastering Athleticism, the athletic institute is named "Grodiek Institute", a pun on a creator of the game, G. Rodiek.
 * While it may be just a name, Morrigan Hemlock may also be a reference to Dragon Age: Origins. Not only does she share a unique first name with an important character in the game, her last name is also similar to two of the main creatures of the game (the hurlock and genlock). She also wears an outfit slightly reminiscent of the Dragon Age Morrigan.
 * One of the Rocks/Metals that Sims can pick up is Tiberium, which is a reference to Command and Conquer.

The look of the item and a part of its description - "Please note, we'd like to take a moment to remind you that the Comrade Cube cannot, and will not, speak" - are both references to the weighted Companion Cube from Valve's Portal series where GLaDOS constantly reminds the player that the weighted companion cube cannot speak.

Other



 * Occasionaly airplanes can be seen in the sky of Sunset Valley.
 * Some of the rabbit holes have music from MySims as their background music.
 * When Travelling to the Past in the Time Machine from Ambitions your Sim may get a message about horse riding which also mentions that it could be useful in near future: that must be a possible hint to Sims 3 Pets.
 * On the big rocks near Crystal Springs in Sunset Valley, there are alien carvings on the rocks presenting some sort of message.
 * Premade deceased Sims in Twinbrook, Barnacle Bay and Bridgeport are all light-green skinned, grey-haired, barefoot and dressed in similar hues. Also these Sims share their last name with some Twinbrook families, possibly meaning that they may be related to them but oddly they don't appear in tOboroten-the-sims-3-pitomci.jpg?]]heir family tree.
 * One of the background music songs in any grocery stores bears a resemblance to the song from the movie "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" called "Champion Charlie Brown"
 * NPCs from Bridgeport and Barnacle Bay often don't have the typical and appropriate traits to the determinate NPC job, for example babysitters don't have the Family-Oriented trait.
 * There is an Easter egg in Twinbrook giving a hint of Bridgeport. See this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NCgL20Lqaw, and in Bridgeport you can see the same thing.
 * As the Easter egg above, if you look at the Big Bling Household in Bridgeport, you can see a description saying that no one knew how these "former Twinbrook residents came under the same roof."

 * All the T.V. shows are made with The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories.
 * The name of the Twinbrook Stadium is Bachelor Stadium, making a reference to the Bachelor family (perhaps because Michael wishes to be an athlete).

 * When travelling to the past, the player may randomly get a message about the disappointment of the Sim that personal teleportation is still not possible 50 years after The Sims 3. This makes no sense, since teleportation does exist in The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories and can be achieved by meditating or learning the Ninja teleportation trick. Kids can also be teleported by the Social worker. Repomen also teleport in The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories if the walls are blocking the objects. Teleportation is also possible through the Teleporter Challenge Reward. Although it's possible the game means an object that allows personal teleportation. Also in World Adventures, Sims can teleport by using Zeneport.


 * One of the songs used when entering the elevator for The Sims 3: Late Night expansion is one of the songs used in build mode in The Sims.
 * The cooking channel plays a song from the The Sims: Unleashed.

 * Under the "Themed" category while designing objects, one pattern shows three real-life sports cars: Audi R8, Chevrolet Camaro, and Lamborghini Gallardo
 * Florence Delarosa from The Sims 2: Open For Business appears in the gardening channel and is eaten by the Cowplant.

 * In the "Sims 3: Generations" when a sim goes to graduate at city hall, you can hear some of the producers names being read out. Such as "Vaughn Ryan" one of the producers on this expansion.(Generations)

The Sims Medieval

 * When playing a quest as the Wizard, the player may be given the chance to undertake an optional quest objective, "scry into the distant future (just for fun)". A dialogue box appears describing a "beautiful woman in a red dress" and a confused image of "Gothic bells", clearly intended as a vision of Bella Goth.


 * When the music box is opened, two small dancing automatons can be seen inside. The female figure wears a long red dress, which could possibly be a medieval variation on Bella Goth's iconic outfit. Her male dancing partner is also dressed smartly in dark hues, and could possibly be a medieval version of Mortimer.
 * When the Blacksmith is making something, they will get the 'Hammer Tyme' buff, with 'Thy cannot touch this' as the description, a reference to the MC Hammer song.
 * When any hero sim gets a minor wound, the description says, 'Tis merely a flesh wound. I've had worse', a reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
 * There is a townie called 'Rodger the Shrubber', another reference to 'Holy Grail'.
 * When sending a parrot to 'Hunt for Treasure' the description says 'How much treasure can a parrot carry? I suppose it's a question of weight ratios,' another reference to 'Holy Grail'.
 * There's a song played on the lute called Lament for Mortimer. Likewise, there is a song on the fiddle called Bella in the Lowground.
 * When playing the quest to kill the monarch, the spy discovers that the monarch is an imposter, and the true monarch's bones are buried under the name of Sambert Limnel. This is a reference to Lambert Simnel, who was a 'pretender' in Henry VII's reign. Lambert Simnel pretended to be the Earl of Warwick so as to claim that he was the true heir to the throne. This is practically the opposite to what happens in the game play, therefore it is ironic that they swap the letters around of the first and last names.
 * If Pirates and Nobles is installed, a Sim can become a member of the Pirate faction. If they do this, they can choose the special "Scurvy Strike" while dueling, where they spit in their opponent's eye. If this fails, the Sim gains the buff "Blinded by Spit," with a description of "So you think you can blind me and spit in my eye??" This is likely a reference to the Queen song Bohemian Rhapsody.

Llamas

 * The Llamas is an old joke from Maxis dating all the way back to SimCity 2000, when the speed names where "Pause", "Turtle", "Llama" "Cheetah".'' African Swallow"


 * Llamas appear throughout most games of The Sims series. The theme appears as the mascot of the college in The Sims 2: University and various pictures. The pirate ship in Bon Voyage (and Hogan's Deep Sea Diner in Barnacle Bay) has a llama figurehead on it as well as the face of a llama and vegetables as the jolly roger on the ship and Mr. Humble´s computer has a picture of a llama on it. Also, in The Sims, calling to invite over a person who doesn't particularly want to accept said invitation, they will sometimes say "I'm sorry. I can't; I have to feed my pet llama," or "I'd rather play Myshuno with a pack of llamas." There is a book in The Sims 3 entitled "Llama's Rights". Another indication of the infamous Llama is on the Foosball table. It can clearly be seen on the sides of it. Also, in The Sims 3: Late Night, when a Sim is using the Bubble Bar, there is a chance that it will blow a bubble in the shape of a llama. In The Sims 2 Castaway, the Llama people appear on every island. Also, in The Sims 2, Sims on the first level of in the sports career, Team Mascot, wear a llama costume. Sims in The Sims 3 and The Sims Medieval can also do a Mean interaction which is "Imply Mother as a Llama". Also in The Sims 3 Ambitions expansion pack, Sims can get a llama tattoo. In the stylist profession added in The Sims 3 Ambitions, Sims can reject a client by using the interaction "Reject and imply client looks like a llama". In The Sims 3, there is a lifetime reward named "Fast Learner" and its description is "Learn and improve skills faster than a galloping llama!". In The Sims 3 Generations, you can have a llama cane as an elder. The cheatcode "enablellamas on" also alludes to this love of llamas, although entering this cheat code does not actually have any effect on gameplay. In The Sims 3 for console, there is a llama that can be used for cheating. In the sims 3 base game, a toddler's everyday shirt has a picture of a llama on it. Also, Bachelor Stadium in Twinbrook has a picture of a Llama in the soccer picture. If a sim visits an art gallery after the Generations expansion pack has been installed, they will get the memory "That art gallery is full of horizon-expanding pieces, such as a Llama standing on a box of apples". In The Sims 3, in front of Mike's cornerstore in the town of Bridgeport, there is a sign outside with a picture of a llama wearing a suit and holding a guitar.
