One thing about the Sims team is that they like to keep you on your toes. In Seasons you can now celebrate holidays, and this includes Chris⛎tmas, known in ꦜthe game as Winterfest.

As you would e🌳xpect decorating a tree is part of the celebration, however, those who live with mischievous Sims need to keep their wits about them.

Trees can be sabotaged. Yes, you heard that right. A sim with mischief skill🦩 can tinker with those fairy lig🌊hts, ensuring that your brand-new holiday tree will be lit… on fire.

29 𒈔 Gain Lightning Powers

Lightning is an unpredictable beast and in-game is no exceptioဣn. However, the consequences aren’t always bad. If 🔥you play your cards right, you can become master of the lighting and pretend to be a superhero.

The trick with lightning is timing.

If your Sim gets struck by lightning they gain a “Supercharged” moodlet. If they are struck aga⭕in within an hour, th😼en it’s game over. However, if they are struck after longer than an hour but before the moodlet expires, they gain a “hypercharged” moodlet instead which gives them the power to summon lightning anywhere.

28 Command A Hive Of Beꦜes 🌱

Bees are an incredibly useful addition to Seasons. As well as being able to wear a fetching beekeeper𒁃s outfit you c💙an also collect honey from your hives.

Beekeeping i💦n the game goes way beyond this though as you can build a relationship with your bees in order🌞 to build and command a swarm.

Once you’ve built the required friendship level you can instruct your swarm to do specific tasks including fetching gifts, pollinating plants, 🦩cheering people up or, if nice isn’t your style, you can even encourage them to attack other sims.

27 Fight Fౠather Winter ꧑For Presents

As is traditional you can celebrate holidays with gifts. Father Winter, as he is known in-game, will visit your house to leave parcels under the tree. Sims have the ability to interact with him and build up a great relationship. However, for those of us who prefer to take sh꧙ortcuts, there is another option.

As you interact with him you will see the option to fight Father Winter for presents.

That’s right, instead of leaving milk and cookies on the side you can use your “initiative”ꦕ and grab those pr♛esents right from his sack.

26 ﷽ Have Your House Invaded By Gnomes

Ah, g🐻nomes. Lon🧔g since a terrifying decoration, now an even scarier reality.

One of the traditions that comes with the new holiday system is that of gnomeಌs. When activated they will visit your house and sit creepily on the floor. You can then interact with them, making offerings to appease them.

The results 𝓰of this will vary considerably and range from being left (seemingly endless) packets of seeds to having your entire house pretty much destroyed. This is one tra𝓡dition that definitely needs handling with care.

25 🐷 Make Friends With A Scarecr🍷ow

When Autumn comes around what better way to celebrate than with a scarecrow friend🌜? Patchy has a home in your garden but he can also have a pla♓ce in your heart.

You can talk to Patchy and begin to build up a relationship with him.

He will offer you gardening tips, seeds, and even a scarecrow outfit. As your friendship grows so will your love for him as he starts to help out in your houﷺse, doing your gardening and even hanging laundry.

24 ༺ Arrange Some Unconventional Flowerꩲs

Flower arranging is a new skill which was introduced in Seasons that allows you to make displays from the flowers in your garden. You can then choose to give these as gifts or ꦇsell them in a retail store.

As you discover more arrangements you will notice that some of them allow you to scent your bouque♛ts. These scents can have a wide range of emotional effects on the sims you give them to.

Using🅘 certain flowers🌺 can also trigger changes in life stages, aging up sims or even provoking a visit from our friend in black.

23 🤡 Watch P🔯eople Fall Over, Guilt-Free

Via thesimsforums

Come on own up? Who doesn’t enjoy watching people fall over in a comedy fashion? In The Sims 4, you can now watch people fall over by slipping on tꦗhe ice wi🥂thout all that pesky guilt about them being hurt afterward.

All of the fun, none of the downsides.

This first came to my attention during the Sim Guru’s live-stream of Seasons which this image is taken from. As we all w൩atched Father Winter approach the house, suddenly he slipped on the ice and fell over. If the ch𓂃at is anything to go by I’m definitely not the only one who found this hilarious.

22 Have Fun In The Leaves 🐽

Autumn brings with it piles of leaves. Although this may sound incredibly boring leaf piles 🦂have several neat interactions.

The first is the standard, raking leaves. As your sims trees shed their leaves sim children can gain responsibility by raking them༒ up or fun by playing in them. Once they are grown up they have other, more interesting options.

If you are looking for a special spot to enjoy time with your loved one, then apparently there’s no betteඣr place to “woohoo” than a pile of leaves. I✅f chaos is more your style look no further than the “burn” interaction. Fun for all the family.

21 Grow Money On 🥃Trees

Via simscommunity

Those of you who have played previous Sims games may fondly remember the money tree. If you miss it don’t worry, Seasons is bringing it back.

A money tree is very rewarding, but it also requires reward points, 🐭5,000 to be precise. Once you have 💟collected these you can then purchase a money tree fruit from the rewards store and plant it.

For those of you who can’t w🦹ait that long the builder's favorite "bb.showhiddenobjects" cheat is your friend. Who says money doesn’t grow on trees?
