A '''rabbitRabbit holeholes''' is an object, generallyusually depicting a building and are massive in size, that Sims can enter or do activities in, but which the game camera cannot enter. Rabbit holes fade away when the camera gets closer to them, and Sims cannot be seen while they're inside one. They exist in every world in ''[[The Sims 3]]'' and are present as campus buildings in [[Britechester]], the world introduced in ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]''.
 
==FunctionsThe Sims 3==
Most rabbit holes function as workplaces where Sims are employed and work in. Most of them are building-sized, though some of them, such as [[mausoleum]], [[gypsy wagon]], or [[arboretum]] are not. Sims can perform various activities inside rabbit holes, such as getting employed, attending a show, attending a class, and so on. Some rabbit holes give a [[lot assignment]] to [[community lot]]s. A rabbit hole placed on a community lot will also replace the lot's map tag with the rabbit hole's map tags.
 
Some rabbit holes can be invested in, allowing Sims to become partners in them and own them. Sims who become owners can rebuild the lot to improve it so that it becomes more attractive, rename the rabbit hole, and also fire Sims at their will. They can't, however, fire the last employee who works there.
 
In some [[career]]s and [[profession]]s, some of their duties or [[Opportunity|opportunities]] require entering certain rabbit holes to perform an activity. For example, [[firefighter]]s sometimes have to respond to a building disaster in a rabbit hole. When Sims do this, they will just enter the rabbit holes and complete the tasks themselves, so exactly what they do doesn't really matter.
 
Although rabbit holes will fade when the camera gets closer, players can see their contents with cameraman view by pressing the Tab key. Everything inside the building is 2-D decorative textures that serve to make the rabbit holes or buildings more realistic when players peek through their windows from the outside. Environment sounds and music can be heard when Sims are inside the rabbit holes. Usually, that will be a sound effect related to the rabbit holes, such as a school bell at [[school]] or eerie voices at mausoleum, with audible background music.
