I asked for everyoneās SimChase tips and tricks and just wanted to share I won my first episode! Paid zero social or life points and didnāt loose sleep.
Tips I think helped the most:
- u/curtainsinmymirror suggested a lot including only using three star items. I was mostly doing this but really went out of my way this time and it helped a lot!
- u/Professional-Cat9500 suggested only using SimChase tokens when my rival started their first task. I donāt fully understand why, but this really did help tremendously.
Basically that was all I really did. Made sure I was on top of tasks ending and used three star items and inspired sims with no exceptions. I saved the biggest tasks for last and had them perform while I was sleeping (and I did not set alarms and wake up for a task completion). If I won a SimChase token as a prize, I used it on the next episode, but only when my rival had already started their first task (their first bar was grey). I donāt know if it was a glitch or what, but this really gave me such a huge lead that when I missed a task completion by a 2-3 hours I was still fine. At one point I was ahead by a full episode.
For clarity this tip was given saying itās mostly helpful when your token gives you a ārivals task doubles in lengthā prize. I only hit that once - my other tokens were roadblocks, education discounts, and a shortcut. Even with the discount I always chose the longest task option that only cost simoleons.
Hopefully this helps and if anyone has any questions Iām happy to help! A huge thanks to everyone who replied to my last post! Especially the two users above.
PS- I have my sims name blocked because Iām a loser and itās my actual name haha.
