The '''time machine''' is an object in ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]''. It is created with the [[Inventing]] [[skill]]. It will be about the fifteenth invention of your Sim and it requires inventing level 9. After inventing the time machine, it will be found in the family inventory instead of the personal inventory.
The exterior look of the time machine is most likely based on the one seen in ''[[Wikipedia:Blackadder Back and Forth|Blackadder: Back and Forth]]''. A Sim can return with various items including a [[Mysterious Mr. Gnome|caveman gnome]], much as the original Mysterious Mr. Gnome is discovered in the Mausoleum.

==Effects of time travel==
Traveling to the past can have huge consequences for a Sim's household (new job, new friends, new Sim in the household), while traveling to the future seems to be more harmless, though the Sim sometimes comes back with an object or moodlet. It is also possible for a Sim to return from a time travel trip with a new outfit related to the time period he or she traveled to. There are 4 unique outfits for each gender.
===Both===
* Positive or negative 'Traveled in Time' moodlet. (Bigger chance of getting positive moodlet if the Sim has the [[Adventurous]] and/or [[Brave]] traits)
* Random other moodlet.
* Cash. Between §81-§2487. <!--Just edit this number if you find a new min/max-->
* New clothing (including a rusty set of armor and a futuristic suit).
===Past===
* New career for random member in household.
* A new Sim joins the household as child of the time traveler, though the infobox will say ancestor.
* If a sim helps a clan on their trip, they will become best friends with the clan's surviving family members.
* If the Sim is a ghost, they may get a message saying "<Sim name> went back in time to see how they became a ghost, but accidentally changed events so they never became one! <Sim name> is alive again!"
* If the Sim is a mummy, they can prevent the invention of mummies{{confirm}} and will be cured when they return.
*A mummy might join your household.
* Items:

==Trivia==
* Time travel has previously been featured in the mishap that brought [[Don Lothario]] to [[Riverview]], and the time machine is available for use in ''[[The Sims 2 (Nintendo DS)|The Sims 2]]'' for Nintendo DS.[[File:The-urbz-gba-time-machine.png|thumb|200x200px|Time machine in ''[[The Urbz: Sims in the City]]'' for Gameboy Advance]]
* It also appeared in ''[[The Urbz: Sims in the City (handheld)|The Urbz: Sims in the City]]'' for Nintendo DS and Gameboy Advance as a strange machine. The player could go in 5 different times, each having a different area: ''November 29, 1984; December 31, 1870; 1,000,000 B.C.; December 2, 2003 and 3978 A.D.''
* One of the outfits in ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]'' from the future resembles the clothing from Tron.
* Occasionally in ''Ambitions'', a time machine will be available at the [[consignment store]] for Sims to buy, without the need to invent it.
* In [[The Sims 3: Pets (Console)|''The Sims 3: Pets'' for consoles]] a time machine is possible{{confirm}} since the inventing skill in included in the game.
* In ''Ambitions'' it is possible to [[WooHoo]] in a time machine, but the WooHoo lacks the hearts effect.
