Is the breaking down in relation to how often you use an object or time-based or random?

I'm so glad they haven't added the need to repair things in FreePlay. I think one of the surveys had that as a possibility a few years back and I was horrified at the thought. Because it for sure wouldn't be some instantaneous action but something that would take hours.

It seems random to me, but I don't play often enough to be certain.

I downloaded my old cloudsave (194 days old) and it got a little screwy. I still have level 25, but now I have all the quests and a boat load of daily tasks. I play it in between playing the Sims 4 on PC (the regular versions remain my favourite in the series).

I am almost certain it is use-based or at least it was at some point when the price for repairing was ridiculously high ans I just avoided all object based interactions and eventually had nothing to repair

My Easter egg needed repair after looking at it once. How often do things break just from looking in real life?😄

I get bored with the game, and just can't play everyday. The daily checklist is a turnoff for me. It's the same things over and over. I go into the game, and that pops up, and often I just exit out. The long hours things take in Freeplay along with loss of inspiration if you don't check in daily annoy me, but I like that Freeplay is more open ended. I feel like I have more choice. The weekly quests are less boring than the daily checklists. However, I like the workplaces much better in Sim's mobile. I would love it if shifts were more like that in Freeplay.

Has anyone sold an heirloom yet? I have two of the same and want to sell one but there is no option to sell it when you click on it.

I tried to sell one too, but no option. Maybe there’s a dependency to be able to sell?

When I received an heirloom there was the option to sell but I couldn’t find it again in any of the menus - then I remembered about the display case that I don’t use.

I placed the Heirloom Collection and when I clicked on it I had access to the heirloom menu and could sell duplicates (if I had any!)


Use the Heirloom Collection household item to access the menu & sell duplicates

How many heirlooms do you need to have before you can get a case. Mine is still locked, i only have 2 heirlooms. So far can't bring myself to retire a sim

You can buy heirlooms by using heirloom tickets.
To get the green heirloom tickets my sims do the events with adopted children. When those grew up to adults, they move out via the family picture.

As far as I understand the infos in the game, the other colors can be obtained by selling heirlooms. I‘m not that far, yet.

Sorry, I forgot when the case has been unlocked :oops:
