Death

In my previous post, I told you how you can resurrect dead Sims. This week, I am going to tell you several ways to kill your Sims. Sometimes your neighborhood or a lot might get crowded, and you might want to get rid of some Sims. Or you might just want to experience new things in your game. Let’s see how you can kill your Sims.

1. Drown them

There is no doubt that the most popular way of killing Sims since the first game is drowning.

• ·  Build a pool
• ·  Buy a jumping board
• ·  Make the unwanted Sim jump in the pool
• ·  Wait for them to starve

When the Sim is dead, a tombstone will appear next to the pool. If you have Seasons expansion pack, you don’t even need a jumping board. In this expansion pack Sims can jump into the pool without using it.

2. Starve them

Not the easiest and quickest way to kill your Sims, but effective.

• ·  Remove fridges and phones in the house
• ·  Get your Sim to quit his/her job

Without fridges, Sims cannot eat at home. However, they can always order food using the phone and they can eat while they are at work. If you eliminate these options, your Sim will suffer for a long time and will cry, and then eventually will die.

3. Burn them

Fires in The Sims 2 usually start in three ways.

• · Make a Sim with low cooking skill cook using a cheap stove.
• ·  Place objects close to the fireplace and light a fire.

·       With Seasons expansion pack, having trees in the garden attracts lightening and the trees start burning. However, in this case, usually the rain puts the fire out shortly after.

Don’t forget that in any case you shouldn’t have a fire alarm next to the flammable objects. Fire alarms cause fire fighters to come automatically.

4. Shock them

Simply make a Sim with low mechanical skills repair an electronic object. Remember, they can survive the shock if their needs are full. Making your Sim hungry before repairing will increase the chance of death.

5. Scare them

When there is a tombstone in the lot, occasionally ghosts will haunt the house. Ghosts enjoy scaring Sims. Every time a Sim gets scared, his/her needs will drop. If the Sim is scared by a ghost when hungry, he/she will die immediately. If the hunger need is full, the Sim can die after several scares. Also having more than one tombstones will increase the chances of having ghosts and will also increase the number of ghosts.

6. Trap them

Another popular way of killing your Sims.

• ·  Build a small room with one door.
• ·  Make your Sim go inside.
• ·  Go to build mode and sell the door.

Now your Sim is trapped between the walls and he/she will starve to death. This way is similar to drowning your Sims and will take the same amount of time. However, your Sim might fall asleep between the walls (unlike swimming) and you will have to wake the Sim up.
