Sims FreePlay: Multi-story Renovations Quest





          




Okay, so all of you guys must've known, there is a quest in the game that allows us to build upper stories for Sims houses. Well this is it! But really, sorry for popping your dream bubbles but the fact is crucial. We cannot afford buying lots of staircases and stories for Sims houses unless you have lots and lots of Simoleons in storage, which would take forever and frankly, most of the players doesn't have that 'forever'. 

You are given 6 days (5 days 23 hours) at start to complete this time-sensitive quest. Complete it within given time to get the additional reward as an Elevators and Escalators pack. (Available on the Online Store if not completed in time)

Even if you don't finish it in time, you can still achive the main reward is the ability to renovate your Sims houses into multi-story houses. But still, be notified that the price won't be cheap!

Okay so here is the Task List: 

Step 1: Build Community Center (36+ hours depends on your town value and the constructed buildings)

The community center would cost you a fortune and eat up your precious time. You are put to a very tight squeeze and rough decision at this very first step. Lots of pressure huh? Building this took me.. i don't remember, it has been a quite long time... about 72 hours? I used LP to instant complete this step. I am sorry to those who couldn't afford skipping. 


Step 2: Send a Sim to Community Center (for celebration!) 


Step 3: Talk to Wumples - the Swim Center bunny now has moved to Community Center (5 mins)


Step 4: Press look Upstairs - the button on the right top of the screen. Third button, after Zoom Button and Snapshot Button 

Upstairs is a woodworking factory. 


Step 5: Carve Magnum Opus (9 hours)

Use a No Hobby Sim to practice Woodworking with the Woodworking Table on the second floor. High chance you will craft a Pine Oakio - a living wooden doll. A common item in the 1st set of woodworking collectibles. So, this is a part that they will instruct after you craft Pine Oakio: The doll will run and attempt to escape through one of the windows and it's up to you to capture it. The Sim will chase the doll and ambush in front of a random window and you must navigate the doll to where your Sim is at by tapping it. Each time you tap it, it will run in a different direction, sometimes the same one and if you don't hurry it will escape and you will get nothing. 


Step 6: See Wumples for Psychoanalysis (16 hours 30 mins) 

The quest says your Sim is panicking because they just saw a living wooden doll. Okay that's a good excuse to cost us nearly a day for a mental therapy.


Step 7: Share Ideas with Wumples (4 hours 20 mins)

Geez, those Sims has great IQ numbers.


Step 8: Call Home Store Hotline (14 hours 6 mins)

Use a Home Phone to complete this step. I think you can make a Sim do this step while the other Sim doing step 7. Approximately 4 hours 20 mins will be shorten. That's if this option were available before the quest comes out.


Step 9: Browse Internet on a PC (4+ mins)


Step 10: Bake Banana Bread (20 hours on every oven)

Oh dear that's a shock. 


Step 11: Check Email (30+ seconds)


Step 12: Craft 1st Set of Woodworking Items (Depends on luck)

This task would take you forever! If you are lucky, you might craft 2 first item of the 1st set in 20 minutes or maybe 1hr. Pine Oakio was counted as the first (achived above) and now two others must be attained. 


Step 13: Creative Chat with a Sim (12 hours 30 mins) 

Click an another Sim and you should see ' Creative Chat ' 


Step 14: Call Home Store Hotline on a Phone (14 hours 6 mins)

Okay, so this is a point that you can shorten a huge amount of time if you think wisely. While a Sim started creative chatting, you can go to an another house lot and make a Sim call Home Store Hotline on a phone. Then, when the other finishes Step 13 after 12.5 hrs, Step 14 will be count as active. Go back to where you make the other Sim call Home Store Hotline and use only 1 LP to instantly finish the task because that Sim was calling Hotline the whole 12.5hrs!!! Tada!! 


Step 15: See Wumples for Psychoanalysis (16 hours 30 mins) 

With this step, i think you can make a third Sim do it while the 2 other Sims do step 13, 14. But i don't know if you can do it action when the task haven't been available. I don't remember.. But trying won't kill you.


Step 16: Have 3 Sims dancing to a Stereo (1+ min)



>>>>>> QUEST COMPLETED!!!




>>>>> ALL PRIZES ATTAINED!!! 




Okay guys, so doing all those steps won you the ability to renovate Sim' house! 


But.. I have to annouce this bad news. To build the second story for one house, you must pay approximately 1.000.000 Simoleons and, the third story will cost 2.000.000 Simoleons. 

Also you must place a staircase on the first story to move up to the second, and place one staircase on the second to move up to the third.

The basic staircases: Creaky Staircase, Sturdy Staircase and Fancy Staircase. Prizes from 50.000 - 90.000 Simoleons.

Sad news huh? 

Good luck, Rachel <3

  1. I have the 1st set of woodworking items, even the second, and it will not let me continue the quest. Any thoughts?

    1. Well, that's the worst glitch ever. You can save the game progress to the Clouds and delete the game, then reinstall it. Or you can just exit the game and restart it. If all that doesn't help, then you must report to the developers via email. Good luck!

  3. I have two questions about the prize of the Multi Story Renovations quest:

    - If you do get the prize (escalators and elevators), how much would it cost to install them in a house?
    - If you DON'T get the prize, how much will it cost in the online store?

    I just want to know if it's worth it to spend LP's for this quest because my time limit is almost up. Thank you!
