Karma power

Karma powers are present in all versions of The Sims 3 for consoles. The player must earn karma points in order to use the karma powers. Every day at midnight, the player may be rewarded with karma points or a Bad karma power may be used at midnight if the player has overused or misused karma powers. It may be more difficult to use karma powers on PC though.

Bad Karma

• Cosmic Curse - Is your Sim really sick of a conniving townie? Do they want a bit of revenge? Make the Sim of your choice the town pariah.
• Epic Fail - Any Sims' worst nightmare! Curse any Sim with clumsy fingers and watch chaos ensue! It might be best to cast it in their house not yours. Make Sims fight, have gas, get demoted or fired, break things, cause fires and more.
