Chapter 1 | Scenario 1 Sims Life Stories Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Important! If you want to check your current goals, you will have to activate the aspiration window. Take a closer look at the Goal icon (screen). Once you've clicked on it, additional hints will pop up on your screen. It's very important that you read this info, especially since you'll be able to find out more about your goal. Additionally, each goal will be rewarded with a certain number of Aspiration points. You should also know that all of these tasks are mandatory, so you will have to fulfill a current goal in order to be able to proceed to the next one. Thankfully, you shouldn't have any major problems with them.

Goal: Head on to the house (+250 Aspiration)

Start off by watching a short cut-scene. You will end up in front of a house. It's being occupied by aunt of our main character (#1). Wait for the first mission objective to appear on the screen. It will be happening automatically, so you will only have to wait for the right moment. Try getting closer to the house. Aunt Sharon will come here to greet you. As you've probably noticed, a small dialog window has appeared in the upper-right corner of the screen (#2). Make sure that you read these messages, because some of them will contain additional hints. Wait for the new window to pop up on the screen. You will find out more about your next objective.

Goal: Hug aunt Sharon (+250 Aspiration)

Now you will have to hug aunt Sharon. Make sure that you have read all additional hints, so you should know exactly what has to be done here. Click on your Aunt. Choose Hug (#1) and Friendly (#1). As a result, you will be allowed to enter the house. You should receive additional hints here. Also, notice that aunt Sharon decides to leave the house (#2). This will allow you to take a closer look at your surroundings. We will also fulfill several other tasks.

Goal: Prepare a meal (+250 Aspiration)

This is also a very simple mission objective. Start off by clicking on the fridge (#1). I think it's fairly obvious that you will be able to find it in your kitchen. Notice that there are a lot of actions at your disposal. It would be best to prepare a meal on your own, so you're going to gain some cooking experience. Head on to the table in order to eat your meal (#2). Once you've done that, a new goal should appear on the screen.

Goal: Choose new outfit (+250 Aspiration)

Now you will have to head on to the main bedroom. You should be able to find a large wardrobe here that belongs to aunt Sharon. Click on this object (#1). Just as before, you will be able to choose between several different actions. I wouldn't recommend clicking on the Change Into button because this wouldn't be much fun. Instead, choose the second option. This will allow you to design your clothing (#2). It should all be very obvious, so I guess I won't have to tell you anything else. Close the window once you're done here.

Goal: Change the appearance (+250 Aspiration)

This is also a very simple mission goal. This time you will have to go to the bathroom. You should be able to find a small mirror here (#1). Click on it and choose the Change Appearance option. Now you will have to wait for the game to load a new window (#2). Once again, you will be given a lot of options, including putting on makeup or using a lipstick. It doesn't really matter what you choose, because that won't affect the outcome of this chapter of the scenario. Close the window and wait for the new mission objective to appear on your screen.

Goal: Welcome visitors (+1000 Aspiration)

This mission objective isn't going to start right away, so you will have to be patient. Don't worry, because you're not doing anything wrong. It looks like some neighbours came here to say hello to Riley (#1). You will have to greet them, either by pressing the G key or by clicking on one of them and choosing the Greet everyone option. It doesn't really matter how you react. The most important thing is that you start talking to them (#2). After that, enter the house and wait for the guests to get here. I would recommend spending at least a few minutes with each of the neighbours. You could also play darts and dance with them.

One of the guests will also give you a gift (#1). I'd strongly recommend that you find out what it is. You will have to open the reward menu. It looks like you've been rewarded with a coffee machine. I'd strongly recommend putting it in your kitchen (#2). You could also buy a second machine from the shop, however this won't be necessary. The most important thing is that you didn't have to pay for this one. :-)

Goal: Tickle Mickey (+500 Aspiration)

Just as before, this mission objective won't appear right away. It's crucial that the guests are still in your house. It looks like our main character has a thing for Mickey (#1). Before you decide to proceed any further, you will have to start with a few basic actions. A new hint window will appear on your screen. As a result, you will learn more about social activities and relationships. The game will advise that you spend more time with Mickey, so you'll be able to gather more relationship points with him. The easiest way to do that would be to start a normal conversation (#2).

You could also try activating other actions. Telling a joke is a good idea. You should also consider dancing with Mickey (#1). Take a look at the relationship window. You will notice that you've earned about 20-30 points. Once this is done, you will be able to pick new actions from the menu. Choose Play and Tickle (#2).

Performing this action will allow you to fulfill the last objective of this chapter of the campaign. The game will suggest that you spend the evening with your new friends or doing something else. You could try talking to other guests (#1). If you decide to say goodbye, try and practice some of your skills. Practicing charisma seems like a good idea. You should also satisfy all of your needs (#2). I had to go to the bathroom and prepare dinner, but I'm sure that you'll be fine on your own.

Once you're done with all of these actions, click on the bed an go to sleep (#1). A new window will appear on your screen in the morning (#2). This is a summary of this first chapter. I'd strongly recommend reading it.
