Several Sims hanging out at an arcade ice cream shop downtown in the original Sims.

It also has objects that are just out of this world in terms of off-the-wall style.

The Prick-Me-Not Spinning Wheel is the embodiment of domestic fantasy.

Your Sims can live their Sleeping Beauty dreams by spinning golden thread they can use for making charms.

Seeing your Sims using a spinning wheel in a game with computers and telephones is charming.

The Prick-Me-Not Spinning Wheel may be a bit niche, but it is memorable.

This firework set is the perfect outdoor toy.

You send a Sim over, they set the rocket up, rocket goes up, rocket comes down.

Except that if this rocket touches anything that isn’t flat ground, itwill catch fire.

And if you set the rocket off inside of the house, it is guaranteed to set a fire.

A woman on the left looks at a genie in a lamp. A woman in the middle tortures a man with a voodoo doll. A woman watches a man dance in a go go cage on the right.

The house will soon turn into a flaming inferno, with property damage and loss of life likely.

If you’re looking to torment a Sim, this forgotten object might be perfect.

Who Do, Who Do?

You’re the Simmer with the power!

Why, the power of voodoo.

The symbols in the chat bubbles suggest these are some interesting conversations you’re having.

A female Sim spins wool on a spinning wheel while a child Sim watches.

The two will then fight and lose relationship - so don’t torment the ones you love.

7Oxygen Bar

Piping Hot Oxygen

This is a pure piece of 1990s nostalgia for you.

They were a fad in the late ’90s where people would inhale pure oxygen through face masks.

A male Sim sets off a firework in the backyard.

Supposedly it helps remove toxins and stimulates the immune system, but it’s mostly just a trend.

Superstar added oxygen bars to The Sims 1, allowing Sims to join in on the fun.

Sims can get their dose of sweet oxygen from the Energize!

A female Sim uses a voodoo doll in the kitchen.

This object may be forgotten but it’s an excellent glimpse at late ’90s life.

Entertainers were one of the features added in the House Party expansion.

They could be hired to perform at a party by purchasing a cake in Buy Mode.

A female Sim sits at an oxygen bar.

Once the cake is served, the ‘sexy dancers’ will leap out and dance for the guests.

The Sims was originally a more adult series.

As seen later on, the Sims added some objects that were way more sensual in nature.

A cake sits on a set of wheels in the backyard.

The Cake Dancers are somewhat dated, but there’s still some charm to them.

If you’ve ever been to a party in the Sims, you’ve probably seen this.

Entertainers, or even your own Sims, can hop inside this cage and get their go-go on.

Teach your sim to Cook with this guide.

This object dates from a time when the Sims was more adult.

While later games would have a lot more supernatural aspects, they seem a bit more grounded in reality.

A Hole in the Ground, which is a hole in the ground, sits on the ground.

The best example of this is A Hole in the Ground.

It’s a hole in the ground.

…Okay, there’s more to it.

A female Sim talks to a Genie who floats in front of her.

A Hole in the Ground is the transportation method to Magic Town for Sims.

They just hop into the hole and be taken to another world.

This is a very silly little object, but it’s nostalgic in its silliness.

A child Sim plays with a Guinea Pig.

It wouldn’t fit into the modern game, but it is perfect for The Sims.

In later games, genie’s lamps do exist but they are somewhat hard to obtain.

Not in The Sims - you’re able to just buy one whenever you feel like it.

A male and female Sim clap at the arrival of a new baby.

These wishes usually backfire, and will do things like ruin your relationships or summon an army of cockroaches.

This genie’s lamp is often forgotten - and maybe that’s for the best.

Behold: The face of terror.

Imagine if you will that your Sims have suddenly fallen sick.

Okay, no big deal, right?

Sickness is a part of life.

But suddenly, one Sim dies.

In hours, an entire family has died of an unknown plague, and you couldn’t stop it.

The cause?Guinea Pigs.

If your guinea pig bites back then you’d better act fast.

They will spread Guinea Pig Disease if their cage is dirty, and they bite a Sim.

This disease is highly contagious.

see to it to keep infected Sims quarantined and resting to increase their odds for survival.

1Baby

Yes Sir, That’s Our Baby

No, we didn’t get confused.

In The Sims, babies were coded as objects.

the-sims-in-game-screenshot-3-1.jpg

It had to do with the engine of the game at the time.

If they do steal the baby, the baby is justgone.

Add that to the list of why the original Sims could be a horror game at times.
