Sul Sul!
Fall is a time of fresh starts, a chance to celebrate the changing of the seasons. Get your home ready for Autumn and boost your curb appeal with gorgeous harvest décor in two SimChase events.
We absolutely love hearing your feedback and suggestions on what you want to see more of in The Sims FreePlay. Your suggestions continue to inspire us and help shape the decisions we make! Earlier in the year, a survey appeared in our game and you voted that glamour and luxury theme were your most desired aesthetic for a future update! Now, your Sims can live the VIP lifestyle they’ve always dreamed of with the breathtaking rewards available in our latest live event and Influence Island!
New Inbox Notifications
In an effort to streamline pop ups and notifications, plus refresh yourself on what your Sims got up to during your last play session, we’ve designed a new inbox system for Sim and SimTown news! The envelope icon is located in the bottom right-hand navigation next to the town map (which now nests the Globe icon/Social button too). You will now be notified when your Sims finish actions, finish a work shift, get a promotion, when construction finishes and more! Your Inbox will also let you know what's happened in your SimTown while you've been away, and also give you the ability to go straight to the location of your Sim or completed construction via the new green map icon!
Active Tasks - Menu Refresh
Have you ever want to know what live events are coming up next or what you can look forward to, without checking out our blog notes? Well, we've refreshed the Active Tasks menu so it's more like a calendar and easier to navigate! You’ll notice that tasks are now split into two tanbs: Active and Upcoming!
The ‘Active’ tab shows what is available to start now and what you’re still able to complete within the remaining time available. Check out the Upcoming tab to find a list of all the current update's Live Events! Events are ordered by the start date, and once they begin it will disappear from 'upcoming' and move into 'active'. When there is less than 24 hours to go until it starts, it turns into a countdown!
Hot Tip: Click the new magnifying glass next to the task to explore the event requirements in more detail. It will open an exploded view so you can have a closer look of the prizes you’re able to earn!
Removal of Autoplay Ads from Short Actions on iOS
We hear you loud and clear, Simmers! Our autoplay ads interrupt gameplay while you’re gardening, cooking and baking and you’ve told us in player surveys and social media that its frustrating and disruptive. We’ve made the change to remove ads from short actions on iOS, and replaced them with opt-in ads instead that will autocomplete the current action for you! Tag our SimGuru’s on Twitter to let us know if you notice the change.
