All About Game Points!
Original article written by Amber Brown posted 13 years 2 weeks agoGame Points are a type of Sim currency that you buy with real money. You can buy Game Points, also known as Game Points, at a rate of 1,000 Game Points per dollar; on Game Point and a Half Days, you get them at a rate of 1,500 Game Points per dollar.
Now, what can you do with Game Points? Well, there are lots of things you can do with Game Points! One thing you can do is upgrade to a SIMperior status. 1 week as a SIMperior member costs you 2,000 Game Points, 10 weeks is 15,000, 20 weeks is 20,000, and 52 weeks is 45,000. There are lots things you can as a SIMperior member, but that is a different story.
Have you ever thought of a perfect name for a horse, but you do not have a horse you want to put the name? Well, for 1,000 Game Points, you can reserve that name, so that when you find a good horse for that name, you can put it on and not worry about the name being taken!
We all created a horse when we started playing on the Sim. For 3,000 Game Points, you can create a ready-to-race2, 3, or 4 year old. Also, for 5,000 Game Points, you can create a ready-to-breed 6 year old mare. Don’t bother with buying someone else’s horse; create your own!
Do you really want to race your horse, but you cannot find a very good race for him or her? Well, for 1,000-15,000 (price depends on race) you can create a race that works perfectly! You choose what breed, gender, distance, everything! You can create the perfect race for your horse, and maybe he or she will even win!
You may notice that when you go to the page of some players, they have personalized silks by their name. For 5,000 Game Points, you can create your very own silks. You choose colors and designs! However, you can only use up to 4 colors, and you cannot use brand names or trademarks. Since perfection takes time, you may have to wait up to 48 hours. But it will be worth it in the end, and you can show of your beautiful silks to all of your friends!
If you look at some horses, they might have a picture. For 30,000 Game Points, you can get a gorgeous headshot for your favorite horse. No two are the same! You will, however, have to wait 3-4 weeks for your horse’s headshot. Also, they cannot be based off of a real life race horse.
Lastly, for 500 Game Points, you can include a special Sim postcard with any private message that you send. There are postcards just to say hi, happy birthday, happy holidays, happy Mother’s Day, thank you, good luck, almost anything!
You don’t need Game Points to play the game, and you can have plenty of fun without them, but doesn’t it just make the game a bit more exciting? Now if you see that something costs Game Points, you’ll know what you have to pay with! Have a fun time on the Sim, and I know you will even if you don’t buy Game Points!
