The Monsters And Magic Update has arrived in Sims Freeplay just in time for Halloween. The first part of the update consists of a new quest - Night Of The Candy Monsters Quest.
This quest is set out differently than all the previous quests and is separated into five different parts. You have 9 days to complete the entire quest to receive the costume pack but you also receive a prize of different costumes for different age Sims when you complete each part.
The first part of the quest gives you a prize of a magical fawn costume for female adult Sims and a Frankenstein costume for male adult Sims.
Browse internet for costume - 48 secs
Call a costume store - 4 mins
Go to the park
Approach a purple monster - 2 secs
Hide in the park (using a park bench) - 2 hrs 20 mins
Talk to Misty the ghost - 5 mins
Watch the Halloween news - 19 hrs
Talk to Misty again - 25 mins
Practice scaring another Sim - 8 secs
Build courage on a seat - 5 hrs
Collect 5 candy pieces - 5 hrs each scare (click on the purple monsters to scare for 5 hrs, I received 2 pieces of candy each time so had to do this three times, but others report drops of only one candy each time)
Once you have collected 5 pieces of candy you have completed the first part of the quest. You have given 2 days to complete this part so depending on how long it has taken you you will have different options from here.
If if has taken you longer than 2 days you will win the fawn and Frankenstein costumes and automatically continue to the next part of the quest.
If you have completed this part quicker than 2 days (i.e. using ups to speed things up) you will have two options (1) wait out the remaining time until the next part of the quest comes available or (2) skip the task for 5LPs.
A little hint for the monsters - they will just appear! Once you have collected the candy from one it may take a few minutes for the next monster to arrive so be patient and wait a while, maybe come out of your game for a few minutes and when you go back in you should have another purple monster waiting for you.

Is it possible to finish the whole quest within the 9 days without using LPs? Cause collecting candies sounds too time consuming :/
ReplyDeleteAnother question: When I skip to the next part using 5 LPs, does that save time or will it still skip to 2 days ahead from the beginning of the quest?
ReplyDeletewhere can I find the rest of the monsters - I used LP's on the first one and now none other have appeared
ReplyDeleteIn finding purple monsters, close your game for a maximum of 5 minutes, go back again and voila!, 5 purple monsters waiting at your house...
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that you can no longer store life orbs in your inventory after installing this new update. So, I can't use the patio glitch to duplicate life orbs anymore. Is this happening to you as well?
ReplyDeleteYes, can you tell us please where are the orbs stored now?? I didnt know the patio glitch lol But I used to sell orbs to help me earn money, and I cant find them anymore... Where did they go??
DeleteCan you use 3 sims to scare the monsters at the same time?
ReplyDeleteyes, u can use as many sims and monsters as u have appearing in your town
DeleteThanks so much for this. And yes please, anyof your great advice regarding the changes this update made to life orbs and the patio glitch-type duplications would be awesome. I'm holding off on updating in case I can't replicate the SP furniture or windows (learned from your tutorials), if so I'll stock up.
ReplyDeleteAll the glitches are still working (patio, baby, doors, windows) only problem is we no longer have life orbs in our inventory so if you've been using life orbs in the patio glitch take them out and place them on a lot so you can duplicate them before u update
DeleteI just finished one monster scare and it only dropped me one piece of candy after five hours.
ReplyDeleteThat three times thing is a bit misleading, sorry to say...
Mine did the same thing
DeleteI got 2 pieces of candy each time but I've updated it now to explain further, thanks for letting me know your drops were different
DeleteEvery time i collect 5 and scare 5 monstars , now i have 4 more that appeared after i just got done scareing maybe 10 of them
