The Sims 4


All 14 postcards that can be found ingame on a corkboard, that can be found in build mode.

Pen Pals are a feature introduced with The Sims 4. Getting a Pen Pal is the only way of collecting postcards.

To get one the player has to locate the "Socialize" menu point on the computer and choose "Find a Pen Pal". After a few sim hours a notification will confirm, if the player's Sim found a Pen Pal. If they write them enough letters afterwards, the option to ask for a postcard will appear. If the player chooses this option, there is a chance that a postcard will appear in the mail of the next day.

To be able to collect all postcards a Sim can get a Pen Pal multiple times.

Image Description Value
All your penpals discovered somehow that they know each other! What are the odds! This plaque is the result of a unanimous decision in a lengthy forums thread over what they should all pitch in to send you.

Trivia

  • The description of Lucky Palm's postcard is a reference to the phrase "What happens in L.A., stays in L.A.".
  • The description of Dragon Valley's postcard says "Here be Dragons!", which is a medieval practice of indicating danger by putting pictures of dragons and sea monsters on maps.
