Snoop for SecretsUse social interactions or check for options on mailboxes, desks, or private spaces.

Stage 2: Superior Pryer

TaskTips

Keep a SecretAfter a secret is shared with your Sim, use the option to “Keep Secret” when interacting again.

Upon completion, your Sim will unlock:

  • Higher success when rummaging or eavesdropping
  • Greater stealth during home invasions
