The Sims 3 Base Game

This is my guide for a full experience in the many aspects of The Sims 3 of creating the an interesting, entertaining, and yet challenging household that gives you an overall experience of the game. This guide is for those who want to achieve goals without any or very little cheating; otherwise, this guide is pointless and useless!

The Household

First, let's create the household...

All/Everyone

This section applies to everyone in the household.

Skills

I recommend that all Sims in your household have taken a $400 class in all of the Skills below to help around the house no matter if you have another Sim who specializes in any of these particular skills (in case they're asleep or at work). However, avoid using these Skills as much as possible and attempt to save the task for the Sim who specialize in these Skills...

Skill	Location	Simoleons
Charisma	City hall	$400
Cooking	Restaurant	$400
Handiness	Military base	$400
TOTAL CLASS COST PER SIM		$1,200

Lifetime Rewards

Most of your household will have Careers, and spending these Lifetime reward points will greatly increase your Career benefits and opportunities (listed in the order of importance)!

#	Lifetime reward	Lifetime happiness
1	Opportunistic	10,000
2	Multi-tasker	10,000
3	Office Hero	5,000
TOTAL COST		25,000

Household Members

• Artsy Fartsy
• The Chef
• The Diplomat
• The Jock

The House

First, purchase a lot. For this household, you really don't need anything bigger then 30x30, perhaps even smaller to save on Simoleons.

• House Layout
• Starting Items
• Upgraded Items
