I was looking at some of our forum games and realized that only TPBM is active... kind of. I decided to make a new game, related to The Sims. Now, I don’t know if it’s fun or not it’s yours to judge. The game is extremely simple. I start the game with a word which I don’t reveal. I give out 3 clues. The first one who guesses correctly wins, and gets to choose the next word. If someone doesn't get it after a while I added only 1 clue then. After I add 3 clues like that and nobody guesses, I reveal the word.

What’s the point of the game if it’s just guessing or choosing?

Well, the person who wins the most in a month (or more, depending on popularity) will get a (worthless) userbox and plus a rose on their userpage.

What are the rules?

  • Users cannot change their word in the middle of the game.
  • To make the game more interesting, one can put the word to be a name of a Sim from the series.
  • Try to be fair. Don’t reveal the word via chat messaging, notices on user pages etc.
  • The word doesn’t have to be related with The Sims, but it’s prefered.
  • The word must be at least 3 letters long. It can be a known phrase or a compound word.
  • The word cannot be inappropriate (words related to sex or drugs, for example).

Okay, I thought of a word. Here are the clues.

  • It can appear in 4 forms.
  • It appeared in The Sims series twice now.
  • It was in a battle.

My guess is seasons. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 21:28, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
Correct! You get to choose the next one! Vss2eiptalk here 21:39, February 4, 2013 (UTC)

First off, I'm thinking you might want to start off giving only one clue, then working up to 3 if/when no one gets it. The first clue you gave narrowed down the list of words substantially, but the other two pretty much confirmed the answer. In the meantime, I'll stick with the '3 clues' rule.

  • It is a special form of money
  • It is featured in one game
  • Sims carry it in their inventory

To that end I would have guess it is the ancient Coins from Sims 3: World Adventures, but then those coins are not carried in the inventory. Is it MagiCoin from Making Magic? MILK FOR THE UNYUUFEX, FLAT CHEST FOR THE CUTENESS THRONE, SKULLS FOR THE SKULL PROBES (user talk:Mathetesalexandrou) 22:50, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
As far as I can tell, there's no rule limiting the number of guesses someone makes. That said, MagiCoins is the correct answer, so it's your turn. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 22:58, February 4, 2013 (UTC)

Indeed? Now sticking to the 3 clue like everyone else,

  • It is featured in all of the main series game at one point.
  • It is introduced only through expansion pack (it was never introduced in the original main games)
  • It is playable in only one game.
