==The Sims 2 for Nintendo DS==
[[File:Ds_aliens.png|thumb|Aliens in the Sims 2 DS have various skin tones|link=Special:FilePath/Ds_aliens.png]]
Aliens have a key role in the storyline of ''The Sims 2'' for Nintendo DS. The town of [[Strangetown]] will periodically be invaded by [[Emperor Xizzle]] and his minions. The aliens appear a little less human than the ones in ''The Sims 2'' for PC. They are short, have bulbous heads and do not wear clothing. [[Johnny Smith]], an alien hybrid who works at the shop, nevertheless retains a fairly human appearance besides his green skin. The aliens themselves exhibit various skin tones including green, blue and yellow.
Line 88:
Prior to the release of ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]'', it was confirmed by EA that aliens would return in that [[expansion pack]].<ref>The Sims 3 community blog at [http://simsvip.com/?p=13795#more-13795 SimsVIP]</ref><ref>At the [http://thesims.com/seasons The Sims 3 Seasons official page], there's a written line, "Welcome mysterious visitors: New weather patterns aren't the only things appearing in the sky! Befriend an alien visitor and use their UFO to abduct a neighbor, invade a community lot, or travel to the stars."</ref> Towards the end of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yB5nTGm0j3Q the ''Seasons'' announce trailer] at around the ''1:15'' mark, a Sim looks up and a bright light appears on and around him. It is assumed that he was being abducted, similarly to ''The Sims 2'', but without the use of a telescope. Also, aliens make minor appearances in each season in the same trailer.
Players cannot create aliens in [[Create a Sim#The Sims 3|Create a Sim]], as there were coding issues when developing ''Seasons''.<ref>[http://www.twitlonger.com/show/jjc6i9 SimGuruGraham's tweet on aliens cannot be created through CAS]</ref> However, the alien skin tone, as well as the Alien Eyes Modifier, Alien Ears, and Alien Eyes sliders are available in CAS.<ref>[http://simsvip.com/game-guides/sims-3-seasons/ The Sims 3 Seasons Game Guide] at SimsVIP.</ref> These can be used to create Sims that look like aliens, but they will not have the alien abilities.

===Appearance===
[[File:Sims4-cloning-machine-clone-alien-process.jpg|thumb|An alien being cloned.]]Aliens appear similar to those ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]''. A notable exception is that they now have multiple skin tones, including blue, green and purple.<ref>[https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7595/16181276853_b01afd15a0_o.png]</ref> They wear either a black, green, or grey body suit. Aliens can also wear normal Sim clothing

===Create a Sim===
[[File:TS4 CAS Alien Button.png|thumb|Alien Button|link=Special:FilePath/TS4_CAS_Alien_Button.png]]Aliens can be created from the Create a Sim menu. This is similar to the Supernatural Type button from ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural]]''. From Create a Sim, players can choose from a range of alien face presets, unique eyes, and a range of skin tones such as blue, purple and green. They can also adjust the pointy ears. There is also a range of alien-like makeup which can also be used by normal Sims.
Aliens can also have a range of skin tones such as blue, purple and green. Prior to [[The Sims 4/Patch 17|Patch 17]], aliens could not wear regular clothes and were incapable of having hair.<ref>http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/823871/aliens-no-hair</ref> They would always wear their alien suit, unless they were in their disguised form. However, the update allowed aliens to wear clothes and hair, with the only limitations being the lack of skin details and styled looks.<ref>http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/832123/may-4-patch-notes#latest</ref>
====Disguises/secrecy====
Aliens can change themselves to look like normal Sims. At any time, players can edit and adjust how an alien will look while disguised. While disguised, an alien can appear like a normal Sim and not be spotted by Sims. If a Sim figures out the alien is in disguise, the alien can erase the Sim's mind and go about their day pretending to be a normal Sim

==Alien abduction==
{{main|Alien abduction}}
===The Sims (Console and PC)===
Aliens only take an interest in those who take an interest in them. The Sim returns a few hours after his or her abduction with a changed personality. At this point in time, 25 years before ''The Sims 2'', aliens are clearly just beginning serious research on Simkind, and have minimal knowledge of Sims themselves - though the alien pregnancies of [[Nestor Caliente]] and [[Glarn Curious]] would likely have occurred prior to the events of ''The Sims''. It is also too far back in time to tell what type of alien carries out the abduction.
Line 282 ⟶ 276:
*In ''The Sims 4'', there is an alien at the center of the crowd in ''The Sims'' 15th Anniversary main menu.
*The planet [[Sixam]] was first featured in ''The Sims 3: Seasons'' as a text-based adventure which Sims can travel to through the Galaxa Space Car's Space Travel upgrade. Sixam was then changed to a secret lot in ''The Sims 4: Get To Work'' where Sims can visit.
*In ''The Sims 4: Get to Work'', aliens have a special birth certificate, bassinet, gravestone, and urn.
*In ''The Sims 4: Get to Work'', if there is an alien in the household, Sims can watch a channel called "!#*%&$@%" which showcases multiple skits of aliens living normal lives.
