Wishing well

The wishing well is an object that comes with The Sims 2: Seasons, The Sims 3 Store and The Sims 4: Romantic Garden Stuff.

The Sims 2

Toss 'n Wish Drinking Well by Gaelic Gardens After spending so many hours pruning and trimming your garden to utmost perfection, you deserve something unique to give it that last special touch. The Garden Club saw to it that you were well compensated! No fewer than 30 garden gnomes were recruited to design and construct the toss 'n Wish Drinking Well, so it's guaranteed to beautify and fill your garden with an unexpected grace only delightful gnomes can provide. Be wary as you wish, for gnomes are renowned pranksters! Game The Sims 2: Seasons Buyable Limited Price §2,500 Size 3x3

Getting the Wishing Well is an incredibly hard task. To get it, a Sim has to get a high score from the Garden Club. This can be achieved by maintaining a clean garden, filled with flourishing plants and well kept shrubs/hedges etc., and by placing lights, fountains, and sculptures. When the Garden Club members have inspected the garden, they will ask the Sim to join their elite group, and will randomly place the Wishing Well somewhere on the lot. If there is not enough space to place the Wishing Well, it will be placed in the Sim's inventory instead. The Wishing Well has two functions: Sims can draw and drink water from the well, which will reduce their temperature and provide a slight boost in hunger (useful for PlantSims as this fills up the "Water" need faster than water from the tap), and as the name suggests, as an object for making wishes. Sims can wish for Romance, Friends, or Money. Each wish has one positive and one negative outcome; the outcome will automatically be negative if the Wishing Well has been used less than 24 hours earlier.

Each time wishes are made, the chance of successful outcome is reduced. The first wish will always be successful.

• 85% after 1 wish
• 60% after 2 wishes
• 30% after 3 wishes
• 15% after 4 wishes
• 5% after 5 wishes
• 0% after more than 6 wishes

After 5 wishes are successful, all further wishes will fail.

List of Wishes

Wishing for Friends

Positive

3 new friends appear around the well. Upon the wisher's first contact with them, they will become best friends.

Negative

3 new unfriendly acquaintances appear around the well. They will probably start a fight with the wisher upon their arrival.

Wishing for Romance

Positive

The wisher's true love appears around the well, and he/she will automatically kiss them, and fall in love.

Negative

A jet of fire erupts from the well and Mrs. Crumplebottom climbs out (an allusion to the horror film "The Ring"), and beats the wisher with her purse. She may also attack the wisher.

Note: If the player has the wisher run into a room with a locked door (works with dorm doors, not 100% sure about regular doors), and keeps him/her from emerging to be beaten, Mrs. Crumplebottom will eventually walk off the lot.

Wishing for Money

Positive

A bag of money falls from the sky, worth around 1,000 Simoleons.

Negative

A bag of money falls from the sky (worth only 50 Simoleons), and hits the wisher on the head. If his/her mood is low, this could be fatal.

Even after the 5 wishes have been used up, the well still has some use, so don't delete it.

• Sims can still drink from it.
• The Money wish still gives 50 Simoleons, as long as the wisher has high motives.
• The Friends wish is great fodder for a Cowplant.

Trivia

• If an adult wishes for friends and the outcome is successful and The Sims 2: University is installed, there's a chance that the well may spawn young adults as friends and vice-versa. The well may spawn young adults and adults at the same time, but this is extremely uncommon.
• If The Sims 2: Bon Voyage is installed and a bigfoot uses a Wishing Well, the game will force an error if he tries to wish for romance.
• If a Sim makes a wish from the Wishing Well while an angry ghost is nearby, the ghost may interrupt the results—whether the wish was successful or unsuccessful—by popping up out of the well and scaring the Sim.
