Five In-Game Business Activities
These are functional gameplay actions your Sim can do or offer during business hours:
- Fabricate Objects – Use the Fabricator to craft furniture and décor items.
- Fix Objects – Offer repair services or role-play a repair counter for extra realism.
- Attend Classes and Lectures – Host eco-workshops for community members and extra Simoleons.
- Browse and Buy Items – Customers can shop from your fabricated creations.
- Be Friendly – Chat with customers to improve relationships and star ratings.
Extra Info
- Keep a steady supply of Bits & Pieces to fuel the Fabricator. Dumpster diving or recycling is handy early on.
- This shop works best with Sims skilled in Fabrication, Handiness, and Logic.
- Use industrial shelving, repurposed décor, and greenery to nail the “eco-warehouse” aesthetic.
- Great option for storytelling — a Sim who runs workshops by day and builds custom pieces by night.
