SimSociety: courses for your mentee

In order for your virtual mentee to be tapered in the SimSociety game it is necessary for him to graduate courses. Your Sim can register himself for courses on weekend or on evenings after work. The days when your mentee go to courses will be marked in his calendar. All courses are paid. Don't forget that your character must have money to pay the lesson.

SimSociety: items in a baggage - how to use them

In SimSociety game your character can go for shopping and buy a lot of useful items that will appear in his baggage.
Umbrella - let your Sim take a walk in a park, and if Sim get rained on, he will not be soaked on with it.
Chess-table - let invite one friend home and play chess with him. If your mentee is a winner his self-feeling will increase, if lose, his self-feeling will fall. In time Sim gains experience in playing chess.
Playstation - let your Sim invite three friends home and play videogames. As in chess-game the result of the game will reflect on a self-feeling of your character. In time Sim gains experience in playing videogames.
Sterosystem - let your Sim have a rest without friends, listening music.
Different books - fictions can help your Sim to switch off, and textbooks get experience in some field or increase any characteristic. For example, regular reading a book "How to become a Grand Master" will help to learn how to beat at chess all the friends.

SimSociety: Friends will help you with Sim's career progress.

Friends can propose him a new higher-paid job. You can take an offer or refuse it.
More details about the jobs and career progress in SimSociety you can read in the following post>>.

SimSociety: friend relations

As in all Sims games in SimSociety your virtual character can make friends and mix with them. After you've start playing game your character has several friends. Try not to lose friends and make new one. In order to keep up relations with friends it is necessary to use such options as "have a rest with my fiends" - invite friends to the theatres, restaurants, museums etc. Every tour with friends increases the level of friendly relations and adds your Sim People management skill Walk with friends can be both successful and unsuccessful. After successful walk increase such your Sim's characteristics as La-di-da, Self-feeling, Delight, Gladness, Health. But after unsuccessful walk they may fall.
You virtual mentee can make a friend at work or mixing with his acquaintances.
Your friends will often invite you for a walk. It seems to me that such walks are usually successful.
When you choose a friend to invite him somewhere you must consult his interests and don't go with your friends to one place two times running.
Sooner or later one of your mentee's friends will offer him romantic relationship. If your Sim takes this offer he will get a possibility to invite his beloved to a candlelight dinner or to viewing melodrama. But there is a nigger in the woodpile. After you've started romantic relationship with one of your friends you invite another one even to play chess, Sim that in romantic relationship with you will have a grouch on you and his Relations-level will fall.
To get a bigger impact from your Schmoozer friend, socialize with him or her only. That should gain you around 10% pursuasion.
Also, try the Understanding NLP book.

Jobs in SimSociety

In SimSociety your character can get following jobs:
- Other - Default option - your character begins his career from the waiter-post;
- Journalism;
- Security;
- Cookery;
- Policy;
- Science;
- Medicine;
- Music;

It is not new information to Sim and Sim 2 players that for your character to be tapered in every of jobs it is necessary to have special aptitude and fulfill the conditions. How to do it? You can read in information about the job. For example, on successful work of waitress Charm, Gladness and Cleanliness have an influence. In information about the job you can also read about the distance between home and work-place. If it is not too far you can get there on foot, but if it is too far, you will get there by bus, by taxi or by your own car (whichever your Sim can afford).

If you want to find a new job press the button "Search a job", choose a job and post and put in an application. Next day your character will get a message is he taken into the new job or not. If your mentee was searching for a job having low levels of self-feeling or gladness, or cleanliness, most probably that employer's answer will be negative.

SimSociety - a character has a rest without friends

In my last post I wrote that in SimSociety game some activities are available to your character. He can take them to increase the level of his requirements and build capabilities. One the actions group is a rest without friends. It can be:
- Housecleaning - costs nothing; it increases the level of cleanness and comfort at home but takes away gladness and increase loneliness-level of your character. It is not the best time, but if you don't clean a room for a long time, your mentee will wake up in the morning with low characteristics-level and complain about not a clean room.
- Bathing - increases the levels of Enervation, Loneliness, Gladness, Cleanliness; costs nothing.
- Jogging - increases the levels of Enervation, Physical form, Health and lowers the levels of Gladness and Weight. This action must be taken in a regular way if for success in job it is necessary to have a good physical form for your Sim; it is also cost nothing.
- Swimming - has the same effect as jogging, but it costs 3 virtual $.
- Buy prepared food - this action increases the levels of Weight, Loneliness, Happiness, and lowers Health-level. It costs 18$. This money your virtual character can spend in a restaurant with his friends, but about it in another post.
- Driving lessons - increases the levels of Delight and Driving, lower the Enervation-level. When your virtual mentee has enough money to buy a car he won't be able to go to the work-place by it if he doesn't know how to drive it. That is why it is necessary to go to the driving lessons that cost 24$.
- Look at the wall - it costs nothing and increases levels of Enervation, Gladness, Loneliness, but lowers Delight-level.
- Watch international news - increases the levels of Delight, Weight, Loneliness, Knowledge (Intellect), lowers Happiness-level; this action costs nothing.
- Watch Culture channel - increases the levels of Delight, Weight, Loneliness, Gladness, Knowledge (Culture); this action costs nothing.
- Watch culinary TV-show - increases the levels of Delight, Cookery (elements), Enervation. This action costs nothing and is necessary for cook career.
- Go for shopping - this action increases the levels of Enervation and Delight. And also your character can buy different things for home and rest that give him an access for next actions. For example, buy an umbrella you get a possibility to take a walk in park and if you character gets rained on in the way from work to home, he won't be put himself out of humor. Chess-table - lets invite one friend home and play chess with him. Bought items are in the Sim's baggage, where the can be chosen, used or sold (at half-price). More about the bought items I will say you in the next post.

SimSociety game is available at Facebook

EA Games produced training area for Sim games players - free on-line game SimSociety. You can play it both as an independent game and at Facebook social network. In the latter case you can invite 10 your friends to join your game.
So, few words about SimSociety game. Before start to play you are proposed to create your own character: choose sex, color of skin, character features and the life goal - as it in The Sims 3 game. For example, I created my Sim friendly, joker, flirty, "life of the party" and "livelong romantic". It seems to me that these features will help her to make friends faster. Also I chose for her ambition for romantic. After you've created your own character the game starts. After the start of the game your character work as a waiter in a restaurant, every day he get his work-place on foot and have several friends. You can see your character's cell telephone on the screen. There he keeps a diary and can take some actions. On work-days Sim can take only one, and on weekends - two from the following actions:
- rest without the friends;
- have a rest with friends;
- search a new job;
- register for the evening courses;

In the next posts of this blog I will say you about every of them in details.
