City Hall rewards

Unique interactions

- Romantic -> I'm a firefighter.
Emergencies
Emergencies show themselves suddenly while at the fire department, and should be attended by clicking on one of the fire alarms that are evenly distributed there. Once an emergency arises, time starts counting, and depending both on how much time do you spend at taking over it and the type of emergency, you get a different grade. Getting a better grade grants a big increase in your profession performance.
Time interval | |||
---|---|---|---|
Grade | Small fire / Disaster in building |
Large fire | |
A | 0 to 3 hours | 0 to 4 hours | |
B | 3 to 4 hours | 4 to 6 hours | |
C | 4 to 6 hours | 6 to 7 hours | |
D | 6 to 7 hours | 7 to 8 hours | |
Fail | Special |
Failing occurs when not attending the job, aborting current emergency, or all the affected sims die.
Small household fire
In this type of emergency, your sim must go to another household and extingish a small fire, usually centered around the oven. If got there early, the fire normally doesn't extend more than six floor tiles. This should'n be a big deal, even by sims without the brave trait.
Large household fire
This is more serious than the above. The fire usually starts at a household more than one floor high and with two or more sims trapped in.
The fire now extends though the multiple floors and even over windows and doors, and you must enter in and convince the scared sims to run out of the house (screaming still 10 inches from flames isn't very intelligent)
In this type of fire, most the doors are usually stuck. This is indicated as a pair of axe icons swinging around the affected door. Actually, all the fires at the windows must be extinguished before your sim can smash down the main door. If the firefighter sim has a low Athletic skill, he or she will usually do several worthless tries in breaking it.
This type of emergency is finished when all the sims are rescued and all the flames extinguished.
Disaster in building
The fire appears in a community lot with a 'rabbit hole' building in it. There are a few sims around scared about something, but when zooming out the camera the building seems normal.
To manage this type or incident, the firefighter only has to be ordered to enter the building and take care of it. Then the sim dissapears in the building for about 2 game hours and leaves it succeding in the mission.
X-ray disaster
Appears at the hospital. When viewed at distance there are several yellow lightnings hitting the top antennae, and a lot of blue static electricity swirling around the walls.
There is no difference with 'Disaster in building'. The sim has to be ordered to enter the building and manage it. It takes about 1.75 game hours to complete the task.
Angry Gnome Invasion
This emergency requires the firefighter to locate and catch a variety of Mysterious Mr Gnome that has red eyes and spouts shining %$@# symbols from its body.
Equipment maintenance
Fire truck
The fire truck has a performance value that slowly drops over time. Your sim should take care of it regularly by selecting the appropiate interaction on the truck. If the truck's maintenance percentage is very low, its speed will drop notably.
If the sim has a high Handiness skill (level 5 or higher), he or she can be ordered to upgrade the truck. Up to 3 upgrades can be made. Upgrading it makes it faster, so you can get better grades from start.
Fire alarm
As with the truck, the alarm has a performance or quality percentage that slowly diminishes over time. A bad mantained alarm takes more time to "detect" an emergency, making your firefighter to get a bad grade from start, and also will ring like smashing scrap.
With a Handiness skill of level 6 or more (?), a sim can make the 'Improved fire alarm' unique upgrade. In-game descriptions states that it responds faster to emergencies.
Fire extinguisher
When reaching level 6 or more of Handiness, clicking on a firefighter sim the 'Improve extinguisher' interaction is shown. The upgraded extingisher sprays with orange foam, and douses a fire tile significantly faster.
Ghost Hunter
Ghosts are freaking out sims, so here come the Ghost Hunters. With their incredible ghost-kicking technologies, they get wights and spirits out of the community quickly and securely.
Sims with the Brave or Childish trait will perform better at this, as ghosts don't scare them. A high level in the Logic skill will also help them catch those annoying spirits faster.
Performance boosters
- Investigation: Investigate Paranormal Activity.
- Spirits: Collect Spirits.
- Logic: Logic Skill.

Jobs
Spirit invasion
This job consists of catching some group of spirits that are scaring a family. The spirits aren't the familiar ghosts introduced in the original Sims 3, but a new type of paranormal creature. These are colorful semi-humanoid beings that continuously disappear and reappear by the lot.
Each spirit has a color and an age. Both characteristics give them an economic value that you may exploit (see Soul selling). The job is finished when all the spirits are trapped in the capsules that the exiliator produces.
Poltergeist Haunting
Some of the appliances and furniture of a house are possessed by spirits, and you must stop them. It is easier than the spirit invasion, since they don't teleport continuously. The only thing to do is to use the banshee banisher on every affected item to exorcise them.
In the case of failing in the use of the banshee banisher, the spirit effectively exits the current item and slips to a nearby one. Too bad this takes some time, but actually it is the only apparent difficulty in this type of job.
The job is done when all items are exorcised.
Paranormal investigation
Ghostly presence
One of the hardest jobs, appearing only at level 5 or higher of this profession (after receiving the Spook-o-meter), your ghost hunter must use the Spook-o-meter room by room until all the ghosts become visible. If there are no ghosts in the current room, a game message should give a little clue about how far one is from the current location.
Don't expect to have an encounter here with those gassy shapeless spirits. The ghosts in these missions are dead sims with full names that died in the distant past. You may encounter medieval knights, cute princesses, or even stone age sims!
There are two ways to make these ghosts leave. The first way is to gain their friendship by 'Calming about beloved ones' and 'Talking about full afterlife', and then 'Convince for getting off'. Otherwise, simply use the Banshee Banisher on them, but it will usually take some time.
The job finishes when all the ghosts have been convinced or taken away.
Angry ghosts invasion
This is similar to the previous job, but ghosts are visible from the start. They are scaring sims and using house appliances.
Apart form that, this job is the same as above. Actually it is easier, as the ghost hunter doesn't have to spend time searching them.
Spirit Selling
Concealed spirits may be sold for a small profit at the science facility or directly from the inventory window (the pay is minor). They can also be used as decoration or transfigured using the Carter's Display Case from World Adventures.
The price is calculated both on the type of spirit and their age as follows:
Spirit type | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Age | Kind | Friendly | Scared | Lost | Jealous | Angry | Evil |
Young | 15 | 23 | 30 | 60 | 120 | 180 | ??? |
Old | 30 | 45 | 60 | 120 | 240 | 360 | ??? |
Ancestral | 45 | 68 | 90 | 180 | 360 | 540 | 1300 |
If the spirit has just been captured, its economic value is 66% higher than the corresponding value in the table. Its worth slowly depreciates over time to the corresponding base value.
Private Investigator
Performance boosters
- Cases: Solving the cases sims offer. Each fully finished one gives a performance boost.
- Logic: Training the Logic skill. Gives performance boost gradually while learning it.
- Stakeouts: Going on stakeouts on community lots. Each discovery and each report gives performance boost.

AMBITIONS FOR MOBILE DEVICE
I am going to try and do a wiki page for the Sims 3 Ambitions game on a mobile device. For me it's on my ITouch but I believe it is the same for IPhone and IPad.
There are six professions. you can find a job by either looking on your computer or going to the Recruiting Center in town. I recommend just going to the Recruiting Center because you have to attend an interview there before you start your new job.
