'''Telescopes''' exist in ''[[The Sims: Livin' Large]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', and ''[[The Sims 3]]''. They can be bought in [[buy mode]]. Using the telescope is [[fun]] and increases a [[Sim]]'s [[Logic]]. In ''[[The Sims 4]]'', the telescope is replaced by a backyard observatory.

Line 36 ⟶ 34:
If [[boolprop testingcheatsenabled]] is enabled, players can trigger an abduction by Shift-clicking on the telescope and selecting "Get Abducted".
