The Sims 3 Trivia Questions

1. Molly is a self-employed painter. She's making money fast because one of her traits allows her to build the painting skill at an accelerated rate. She loves talking to people about art, so which trait does Molly have?

From Quiz
The Building Blocks of Life

Answer: Artistic

The artistic trait was part of 'The Sims 3' base game. As well as building the painting skill faster, artistic sims can create stylised or sombre still-life paintings when other sims at the same painting level cannot. Because of her trait, Molly enjoys spending time at the Art Gallery. Other arty traits include photographer's eye, which came with 'World Adventures' and savvy sculptor, which came with 'Ambitions'. They provide a boost to the photography skill and the sculpting skill.

2. Norris Jones has asked his crush on a date and wants to make a big impression. Which expensive restraunt in town can Norris take his beloved to?

From Quiz Take Me Out ('Sims 3' Style)

Answer: The bistro

The bistro is the swanky option for out-of-home dining. But high prices means high expectations: formalwear is a must. Norris needs to get his suit out of the cupboard and get that wild hair under control!

3. Henry Vaughan is a charismatic young sim you wants to be Leader of the Free World. Which career does he need to join?

From Quiz "Sims 3": Why Don't You Get a Job?

Answer: Political

To advance in the political career, sims need to have a high charisma skill. Having the charismatic and schmoozer traits will help with that. As they climb the ladder, they will be able to host campaign fundraisers to secure their future as Leader of the Free World.

4. What is the name of the vacation spot in "World Adventures" that is set in China?

From Quiz Sims 3 World Adventures

Answer: Shang Simla

The martial arts skill can be learned in Shang Simla. Your Sim can purchase a the necessary equipment for the martial arts skill and Chinese-specific recipes. Not to mention, your Sim can also get their hands on several different fruits great for nectar-making. This vacation spot offers many new adventures for your Sim that can turn them into well-seasoned travelers. Enjoy!

5. The town of Sunset Valley later evolves into what town featured in "The Sims 2"?

From Quiz "The Sims 3": Sunset Valley

Answer: Pleasantview

In the description of the town it reads 'Before Pleasantview, there was Sunset Valley. Founded by the Goth family, and built up by the Landgraabs to be a quiet, peaceful town. But when the Altos arrived with uptown ideals, will the townsfolk feel the need to choose sides?', as the "Sims 3" serves as a prequel to "The Sims 2". The other three towns, Veronaville, Downtown and Bluewater Village also feature in "The Sims 2".

6. Which country can you not visit in "The Sims 3: World Adventures"?

From Quiz The Sims 3

Answer: Italy

In this expansion pack, the places you can visit are: Champs Les Sims in France, Al Simhara in Egypt and Shang Simla in China. In these places Sims can meet locals and even have children with them.

7. Rajesh loves his dogs and has no problem building relationships with the neighbourhood's strays. Which trait has he got?

From Quiz The Building Blocks of Life

Answer: Dog person

Rajesh is definitely a dog person. This trait came with the 'Pets' expansion pack, in which dogs were introduced. He can build relationships with dogs quicker than other sims can, and he can teach them skills faster, too. Unfortunately, his strong bond with dogs means he gets quite upset if a dog he likes dies. 'Pets' introduced dogs, cats, and horses, all of which are born with a variety of their own traits. Pets can also learn new traits or lose existing ones through training, rewards, and punishments.

8. It's adorable when teens are in love! Mayesha Sur wants to please her Athletic boyfriend-to-be. He wants to see a game, where should they go?

From Quiz Take Me Out ('Sims 3' Style)

Answer: The stadium

Sports games can be attended twice a week at the local stadium. Watching a game at the stadium will give Mayesha and her boyfriend-to-be the Saw a Great Game moodlet. This will definitely give them a mood boost if they decide to go somewhere else afterwards. For music fans, the stadium also offers bi-weekly concerts.

9. What is the key combination on most PCs that will conjure up the command console in all "Sims 3" games?

From Quiz Sims 3 World Adventures

Answer: CTRL+SHIFT+C

In all "Sims 3" games, pressing CTRL+SHIFT+C will conjure up the command console which most users use to enter cheats. Some older systems may require CTRL+WINDOWSKEY+SHIFT+C. One of the most popular cheats to use is 'motherlode' which debits ยง50,000 to the user's household.

10. Gunther Goth founded the town of Sunset Valley along with his wife Cornelia. Their young son and heir is destined to marry which famous and iconic Sim?

From Quiz "The Sims 3": Sunset Valley

Answer: Bella Bachelor

As most "Sims" fans know, Mortimer Goth marries the glamorous and beautiful Bella Bachelor becoming arguably the two most iconic Sims in the franchise. They have two children Cassandra and Alexander. Interestingly Dina Caliente (another famous Sim in the franchise) marries Michael Bachelor, Bella's older brother.

11. Maia is a mooch. What can she do that other sims can't?

From Quiz The Building Blocks of Life

Answer: She can ask sims for money.

Sims with the mooch trait can ask other sims for food or money, and often the other sim won't mind. At other sims' houses, a mooch can take food out of the fridge and no one will bat an eyelid. The more a mooch mooches, the more they will gain from mooching. The trait came in 'The Sims 3' base game. The ability to mediate is part of the martial arts skill, which any sim can practise as long as 'World Adventures' is installed. Licking dirty plates is an interaction for sims with the slob trait.

12. Lucas is at University. He and Sebastian want to spend some time together playing Longhorns and Laser Beams, Fire in the Skies, and Night of the Shambling Shades IV. They might even have a game of bowling. Where should they go?

From Quiz Take Me Out ('Sims 3' Style)

Answer: The arcade

The arcade is a 'University Life' feature where Jocks like to hang out. B's Bowlerama also has a mini-stage and a bar. It's a fun night ahead for Lucas and Sebastian!

13. Who wants to be an astronaut? Mashooda Akbar does! Which career does she need to join to fulfill her wish?

From Quiz "Sims 3": Why Don't You Get a Job?

Answer: Military

Did this one catch you out? It caught me out when I first got my sim to the top of the Science career and then couldn't figure out how to make them an astronaut! Astronaut is level 10 of the military career track. Sims in that position only have to work one day a week, but earn a phenomenal amount of money in that one day! To get there, sims need very high athletic and handiness skills, so the athletic and handy traits will be very useful.

14. What character trait isn't new in "Sims 3 World Adventures"?

From Quiz Sims 3 World Adventures

Answer: Hopeless Romantic

Adventurous, Disciplined, Photographer's Eye are some of the new character traits in "Sims 3 World Adventures". All of these three traits will be advantageous in whatever new direction you wish to take your Sim.

15. The Alto family have a feud with which other family in Sunset Valley?

From Quiz "The Sims 3": Sunset Valley

Answer: The Landgraabs

The Alto family are 'nouveau riche' whereas the Landgraabs are old money. But this isn't just the reason for their feud. Nick Alto and Nancy Landgraab both hold the position of Vice President at the Doo Peas Corporation and are reportedly warring over who becomes the next CEO, a position currently held by Gunther Goth.

16. It's 9am; Matteo is awake and he's not happy about it. Which trait does he have?

From Quiz The Building Blocks of Life

Answer: Night owl

Night owls do not like being up before 10am and will get a moodlet that will negatively affect how they feel. It's a good idea for night owls to join a career that lets them sleep in and stay up late. They get a positive moodlet for being awake between 11pm and 5am, and will enjoy some activities more during this time. The night owl trait was part of the 'Supernatural' expansion pack.

17. Zara and her best friend Sara are both Supernatural Fans. They're looking for love of the paranormal kind. Where should they go to find heart's desire?

From Quiz Take Me Out ('Sims 3' Style)

Answer: A supernatural hangout

Supernatural hangouts came with - you guessed it! - 'Supernatural'. Lots of this kind attract supernatural sims, like wolves, witches, vampires, and fairies. Another option for Zara and Sara would be a vampire lounge (also available with 'Late Night'), as long as pale, blood-sucking sims are the only thing they're interested in.

18. 'University' introduced three new careers that are linked to social groups. Enrico Renzi is at the top of the rebel social group. Which career option will he be offered?

From Quiz "Sims 3": Why Don't You Get a Job?

Answer: Art appraiser

Sims can gain influence in the rebel social group by eating herbs and organising protests. When they reach the top level of each of the three social groups, they will be offered a job linked to that particular group. For the rebels, it is the art appraiser. Initially, sims just need to maintain their rebel influence, but further up the career ladder, they will need the painting skill, too.

19. What did Geoffrey do after having married Nancy?

From Quiz "The Sims 3": Sunset Valley

Answer: He changed his last name to Landgraab, rather than Nancy change her name to his last name

The Landgraab family, arguably the second most famous family in the franchise after the Goths, are incredibly powerful and vastly wealthy and 'more or less' founded the town of Sunset Valley, prompting Geoffrey to controversially change his last name. It is unknown whether other Sims know of this interesting little fact.

20. Ana wants to quit her job again. She's also starting to 'regret commitment' since her boyfriend proposed and (for some reason) she agreed to marry him. Which trait does Ana have?

From Quiz The Building Blocks of Life

Answer: Commitment issues

The commitment issues trait was included in 'The Sims 3' base game. A sim with commitment issues needs an incredibly high relationship with someone before they would be willing to propose marriage. They also find it hard to settle into a single career: they will sometimes want to change their job and move onto something new.

21. Diamond Lake (her birth name, of course) is going to be a superstar! She's joined the film career and is making her way up the actor branch. Which feature of 'Late Night' does Diamond need to use in order to fulfill her dream?

From Quiz "Sims 3": Why Don't You Get a Job?

Answer: The celebrity system

Becoming a witch is a feature of 'Supernatural', but vampires, moonlighting, and celebrities are all part of 'Late Night'. Celebrities can advance up to level five - a must for any sim who wants to make it in films. Being a celebrity comes with many perks, like getting into exclusive clubs. But it also has its downfalls.

22. How did Agnes Crumplebottom's late husband, Erik Darling, die?

From Quiz "The Sims 3": Sunset Valley

Answer: Drowned during the couple's honeymoon

Agnes Crumplebottom's bitterness is due to her husband's tragic death during there honeymoon. What is more tragic is that the couple were planning to have a baby, a room in the Crumplebottom house undergoing decoration to accommodate a baby.

23. Bodaway has the adventurous trait. He enjoys travelling to new places and exploring hidden tombs. Which 'Sims 3' expansion pack did the adventurous trait come with?

From Quiz The Building Blocks of Life

Answer: World Adventures

As an adventurous sim, Bodaway enjoys travelling to Egypt, China, and France within 'World Adventures'. He will get a positive boost to his mood when he is exploring a tomb. When Bodaway returns home, he doesn't have to wait as long as other sims before he can travel again. Exciting! 'Into the Future' allowed sims to travel - you guessed it - into the future. Simbots (robots) were also introduced in this expansion pack, with a host of traits to make them unique.

24. Kumi Amano and her sweetheart love to sing! Where should they go to perform on stage together all night long?

From Quiz Take Me Out ('Sims 3' Style)

Answer: A karaoke bar

Karaoke machines and karaoke bars came with 'Showtime', so Kumi can sing her heart out to other bar-goers. Sometimes she'll sing solo, but she can sing as a duet if her partner wants to join in. The crowd might cheer and dance... or boo if they're really bad.

25. 'Ambitions' added new skills and careers that sims could attempt to master. Which self-employed career involves making things out of clay, wood, and stone.

From Quiz "Sims 3": Why Don't You Get a Job?

Answer: Sculptor

Sims with the sculpting skill can also make metal, topiary, and ice sculptures. They don't have to be on the career path to make and sell sculptures, though. Even amateurs can earn money this way. Inventors use scrap to make their designs.

26. Who is the father of Claire Ursine's unborn baby?

From Quiz "The Sims 3": Sunset Valley

Answer: Jared Frio

Claire's next door neighbour and ex-boyfriend Jared Frio is the father of her unborn baby and doesn't seem to be aware of this fact. It is ultimately up to players as to whether Jared will become a responsible father.

27. Erin has the vegetarian trait. What will happen if she eats meat?

From Quiz The Building Blocks of Life

Answer: She will get the nauseous moodlet and be sick.

Vegetarians don't like eating meat and will feel nauseous if they do. The trait came with 'The Sims 3' base game, and sims can have the trait from childhood. There are vegetarian versions of meat dishes that sims can make instead. If a vampire (available in 'Night Life' and 'Supernatural') is a vegetarian, they will feel sick if they drink real sim blood. Vegetarian vampires need to eat plasma fruit to stay alive.

28. Eoghan O'Brien has the nurturing trait. He wants to look after kids right there in his own home. Which career should he join?

From Quiz "Sims 3": Why Don't You Get a Job?

Answer: Daycare

When a sim joins the daycare profession, parents will bring their toddlers to the sim's house for them to look after for the day. It's a good idea for Eoghan to have a dedicated nursery room with toys and other objects for the kids. When he's a little more experienced, he'll be able to care for older children after school, too.

29. Which area of Sunset Valley contains the largest, most expensive homes?

From Quiz "The Sims 3": Sunset Valley

Answer: Summer Hill Court

Summer Hill Court is where the Landgraab Estate and the Villa Alto can be found, overlooking the city. There is also an empty 60x60 lot for players to build their own luxurious mansions!

30. Josh dreams of a life on stage; he just needs to choose between being a singer, a magician, or an acrobat. Which trait will benefit Josh in a performance career?

From Quiz The Building Blocks of Life

Answer: Natural born performer

The natural born performer trait conflicts with the coward and clumsy traits - a sim can't have both. As Josh is a natural born performer, he will be better at learning to sing, and learning do magic and acrobatics. When he is on stage, he is less likely to make mistakes, and will easily impress the audience. The 'Showtime' expansion pack introduced performance careers and the natural born performer trait to support them.
