Drums in The Sims 2 can be played by Sims aged teen or older, and playing them will boost creativity skill. As the creativity skill improves, the quality of a Sim's drumming improves as well, and highly skilled players may perform some tricks while playing, such as throwing around their drumsticks. The drums can be played alongside other musical instruments - the guitar, bass and piano - and performing on the drums can generate tips from other Sims; the higher the creativity skill level of the Sim playing, the higher possible tips will become (up to §100 per tip).
