Hints
Getting things finished faster
To get things done faster, change the internal clock
on your DS system. This trick works well if you want to get rooms
built faster. Instead of waiting the normal eight hours, just
set your clock ahead eight hours. If you need money get guests
to stay, set clock forward the desired number of hours or days.
More aliens
To get more aliens on your save, set the system clock
forward by one minute. Load your saved game and walk around for
a minute. Save the game, then set system clock back to real time.
The bellhop should say that you are a time traveler and that the
aliens have launched a full scale attack. As soon as you see the
clock, touch it or you will lose all your sanity.
Aliens and criminals
Do not bother fighting the aliens or criminals. They
will just go away eventually. Also, do not approach them. They
will take you back to your room. To make them go away so you are
not stuck in your room, save the game, turn off the DS off, then
turn it back on. Change the time to what ever time you are supposed
to defeat the criminals or the aliens. Start the game and walk
around a little bit. Save the game, turn it off, and turn it back
on. Change the time to the actual time and you are set.
Desert aliens kill
Wait in the desert until your sanity disappears. You
will be abducted and will walk like a zombie. Note: You can compare
it with the mummy you will see in the desert.
Getting rid of Alien at hotel
At the start of the game Momma Hogg will say "We
should get a casino in the hotel". Go to City Hall. Go to
the man with the blonde hair. Select "Build rooms" on
the touch screen, then find the casino. Then, go back to the hotel.
You will see Tristan Legend (the man who builds rooms in the hotel).
When he takes you in the casino, you will talk. There will be
a shake. It is an alien. When you go back in the hotel lobby you
will see him. Go outside of the hotel. There will be a man who
will sell you a water gun to make the alien go away. It costs
250 Simoleons. Buy it and go back to the hotel. Shoot the alien
with the water. He will go away.
Alien revenge
You can dissect an alien by getting an Alien Mummy
and buying the Government Lab for 2,000 Simoleons. Get near the
table and select "Alien Autopsy". You must be very still
when doing this, you will damage the organs.
Mummified Alien
Go into the Desert with your Metal Detector. Find the
crashed space ship and use your Metal Detector in that area. You
should get a Mummified Alien, worth 375 Simoleons.
Brown cow
To do this trick you must have the Lion Lounge. Go
into the lounge and buy a chocolate bar. Give it to one of the
cows. The cow will turn brown. If you milk it will give you chocolate
milk. If you tip it, then milk it will give you a chocolate milk
shake.
Scammers
There are people who will scam who orders the penthouse.
Every time you beat a scammer there will be another one. All they
do is take your money away from you.
Rat Cave
- When you go in the City Hall, do not bother building the "Rat Cave". Tristan Legend will build it at no charge when progress in the game, whereas if you do build it, it will cost 3,000 Simoleons.
- Use the following trick to get the Rat Cave for free. Do not buy the Rat Cave. Tristan Legend will call you and say that he has something to show you. You will then go to the basement. He then shows you that he built the Rat Cave.
Free milkshake
Go to the area of the town where all the cows are found.
Go up to the cows, not the bull, and tip it over. After you tip
it over and it is laying down, select "Milk" to get
a milkshake. If you just milk the cow without tipping it, you
will get plain milk. You can sell it for 2 Simoleons at the store,
drink it, or give it away as a gift.
Quickly refill your sanity
In the basement of the hotel, turn to your right. Go
down the hall. Enter the door at the end of the hall and you will
be in a freezer. A piece of meat will be hanging from the ceiling.
Go up to it and punch it. Your sanity meter will refill faster
than usual.
Increase stats
After getting your Hotel score to 100% and obtaining at least four stars for your Hotel goals, go to the computer in your room and check out all stats. Afterwards you receive an outfit. You can do this a total of three times, but afterwards your stats will keep getting raised. Also, you must have a good relationship with Mama Hogg and the Goth chick.

The Sim characters will not tell you all their secrets until you become their best friend. Try impressing them and eventually you will get their secret information. Go to the happy face on the bottom screen and try looking for glowing question marks. Tap them to find out their biggest secret.

- Go to the Art Gallery and paint. Only paint a dot, and if it says that is a masterpiece keep it. Do this on all of them. If they all are masterpieces, leave and do something. Someone should call you and they should have bought it for about 1,500 Simoleons or more.
- To steal money from guests, check them in then evict them and keep doing it. You may run out of people in your lobby; just go into a room then go back in again and repeat. You can do this as many times as desired.
- Pick up all the fuel rods you find and sell them at the Town Hall to earn money.
- Build the Sax Lounge in the Arty place and play music. You do not have to do anything, just lead your Sim to the keyboard. You can keep your Nintendo DS on a charger and allow it to idle while playing.
- When vacuuming if you see something you think is valuable, tap it with your stylus and drag it to the hole at the bottom of the screen in the middle. If it is worth something you will get money.
- On June 22, 2000 you will get a side mission to pick up all the mice. Do not leave the mice. Wait until the side mission is over then pick up all of the dust piles. You will find gold coins worth 250 Simoleons each. Sometimes there will be five or six of them.

Fast Social

can only be done if you have Optem Alfred living in your penthouse,
and if you have every room built (including the Bovine Shrine).
Set the Nintendo DS system date to October 31 (Halloween) of next
year. Restart the system and start the game. You should have several
messages. One of them should be the cashier at your hotel. He
will say that a friendly ghost came to the hotel. If you do not
get this message, change the date to one year in the future again
and restart. Check for the ghost in these locations: Art Gallery,
Mamma Hogg's Saloon, Hotel Lobby, Atrium, and Basement. When you
see him, go to a person nearby and do a Social with him or her
(Impress, Calm Down, etc.) while close to the ghost. He will watch
and make the Social go faster. When the mini game is done, you
will now make the social go faster for every person you socialize
with. Go up to the ghost. To the right side of the screen you
will see the words " Mood neutral" and there will be
two selections which are "xxx Ofix mood social xxx"
and "Give gift". Select the first option. Note: If you
select "Give gift" your Sim will enter the Wight Abyss
not be able to get out. Your interaction with anything will not
show up. Do not enter any doors or the game will freeze. Instead,
reset the Nintendo DS and you will start where you saved, but
will still speed up interactions, Notice that the game will be
odd and you will find new people. Note: Repeating the process
may delete your saved game file.
Sink into floor
Note: Save the game before attempting this. Go into
Jebidiah J. Jerky's room, located in Saloon near the restroom.
Run into the corner where the orange toolbox is found and keep
running. You will sink into the floor. Note: Do not save the game
after this happens.
Deluxe Guestroom invisible wall

stairset. Walk down it, then try and go back up to the right of
it. There should be a wall and you cannot go back up.
Float in Deluxe Guestroom
Go into the Deluxe Guestroom. Go to the very right
of the room into the bathroom. Go up the strange object with the
stairs. Then, run off the sides of it. You should float for a
short amount of time.
Darkness
Purchase the Rat Cave from the town hall. After it
is finished being built, wait until you get a call that a criminal
is in town. Do not put on the rat suit, and find the criminal.
When you find the criminal make sure there is a person in the
room who needs to calm down, cheer up, etc. Go to that person
and calm them down, cheer them up, etc. If the criminal gets near
you while you are doing this, you will pass out and go to your
room. It will then be dark everywhere. To reverse this, simply
calm someone down, cheer them up, etc.
