It is a good idea for players who plan to move graves to make a cemetery, but there is a pre-made cemetery, "Gothier Green Lawns", found Downtown next to the House of Fallen Trees.
In The Sims 2: Pets, pets get gravestones/urns that are marked with a pawprint, and the owner(s) of the pet will get a special memory. A pet's urn is gray, and a pet's gravestone is brownish.
With The Sims 2: Seasons installed, a grave can be struck by lightning during a storm. This will cause the ghost to appear (even during the day).
The Sims 3
In The Sims 3, there are at least 3 different types of gravestones; a flat plaque-like one, a gray one that's similar to the ones in The Sims 2, and a tall obelisk-type one. A Sim can obtain these different gravestones by:
Small Plaque
- Dying before earning 75,000 lifetime happiness points.
Medium Tombstone w/ Plaque
- Dying after earning 75,000 - 149,999 lifetime happiness points.
Large Tombstone w/ Plaque engraved
- Dying and earning +150,000 lifetime happiness points.
A gravestone will have a plaque which shows the cause of the Sim's death:
Plaque | Cause of death |
---|---|
Lightning Bolt | Electrocution |
Hand being held above a wave | Drowning |
Flame | Fire |
Hourglass | Old Age |
Crossed Fork and Knife | Starvation |
Pharoah's Head | Mummy curse |
Falling Meteor |
Meteor |
Bat | Thirst |
