Virtual Families - PC
Hints:
------
* Go to the sandbox and pick up the door nob, your player will fix the shed. When
that is done, get the key from under the welcome mat, that will open the shed.
Now you can put out fires and water the plants.
* If a person's energy is down, either give it an energy drink or keep letting it
take naps or go to bed (it might take a few times).
* If a person's happiness is down, buy new things for it, praise it, feed it,
clean the house, and don't use the scolding hand.
* If it's hungry, buy food at the store.
* If it's health is down, make it take a shower, clean the house, or use a towelet
or hand sanatizer.
* To fix the birdbath, you have to fix the water hose (buy waterproof tape and
make a person get a drink, then put another person on top of the hose) then buy
a water pump, put it by the birdbath, and put TWO people on top of it.
(It's too heavy for one).
* To repair the Workshop wall, you have to buy The Wall Repair Paint from the
Store in the Varied Items section (be patient and wait till it appears over
time).
* Put the paint and brush beside the bucket on the lower right hand of the screen
(near the sandbox). Drop someone on the bucket and they will proceed to fill
the bucket with water and add the paint. They will then take it to the wall
of the workshop (where the children draw on the wall) and they will proceed
to paint the wall.
* They will not complete the job on their own. You will have to keep bringing
them back after they have finished one round. Use multiple people to finish
the job quickly.
Note: Interrupting them while they are taking from the bucket will cause
the bucket to disappear and all your progress on the wall will disappear too!
You will have to wait for the Paint and brush to appear in the shop again.
* You need to unlock thed shed first. so go to the sandpit and in the corner is
a doornob, your person will fix the door, then you need to unlock it by
collecting the key from under the welcome door. This will unlock the shed
which then allows you to use fire extinguishers and the watering cans.
* If u place 2 people on the coins and collections then they both will pick up
one and you get double the money for it!
* Mom holds the baby till it is 2 yrs old a couple of hours of play.
* children don't work at all they clean the house at 14 and do homework they
go to college at 19 they just disappear out of the house.
* Keep taking the person with the hiccups to the kitchen sink for a drink till
they do it.
* Weak/exhausted take them to their beds or hammock to sleep if they wake and
are still that way take them back till they are happy or elated.
* You have to wait for supplies to fix floor and workshop wall in the supplies
box it will probably take a long time I just close the game and wait for awhile
and open it again a few times after buying stuff and hope it's there.
* Fix shower and toilet go to laundry room where the duster and plunger are for
them to fix it.
