We're back at it again my lovelies!!! 🎉
This patch brings some long-awaited quirkiness & uniqueness through different Personalities and Traits! Recycling is also making a triumphant comeback, slightly different from last time but you’ll still be saving the planet, one step at a time! And let’s not forget our new collectables - Stamps! You’ll get them (and level them) just by playing normally but you can always try to catch em all. ☑
June kicked off with a gentle pace, but as our talented team grows, we're refining our creation process into a delightful, purr-fectly synchronized machine. Soon, we'll whisk you away to a world overflowing with adorable and joyful content that will make your heart dance with delight! With this in mind, we recognize the importance of timely updates and open communication. We know you're eagerly waiting for more, and we promise to keep you updated every step of the way. Think of us as your trusty guides, leading you through the enchanting realm of our game with whispered secrets and delightful surprises.
We feel a lot more comfortable with the workflow and how good the game is becoming so we’re going to be refocusing on giving all of you consistent and interesting updates & insights on what we’re working on.

Personalities & Traits
I know you may be thinking - Don’t we already have these? Well, yes and no - The existing Ps & Ts were very arbitrary and didn’t really do much when it came down to how you interacted with the game. Now, we’ve revamped the system and added 8 new unique Personalities which will have positive passive effects on your character and allow you to focus on what you find most important! (Or just what you think fits you best)
Next up we have the Traits! Now reworked and with an upgrade system, there are 10 unique traits from which you can choose 5 during your playthrough. Every time you get and inspiration level, you can upgrade each of your chosen traits up to 3 times, in whichever order you choose. These upgrades will make the traits effect stronger or add new effects related to what the trait already provides.
You’ll have complete freedom to mix and match them however you like and we certainly hope you have a blast experimenting!
Recycling
So, I’m sure you recall our previous patch announcement mentioning recycling? Well, let me share an exciting update! Say goodbye to those random bean bags strewn around the world! As we weren't quite pleased with how it turned out, we focused on making it more engaging than the original.

Now, static dumpsters will dot the cityscape, gradually filling up over time. Depending on how full they are, they’ll have different tiers, each one having different benefits and disadvantages. One must bide their time for the best result! Once you do decide to empty them, don’t forget to bring your gloves from D&Y! Delightful surprises and Recycling experience awaits, with a plethora of secret rewards just for you!
I won’t reveal too much, but these cuties are just some of the fun thingamabobs you’ll be able to find!
But that’s not all for Recycling! Some items now break after enough use and leave their broken remains in your inventory. You can discard these in any of the recycling bins already available in the game and gain Recycling XP as well as the fulfilment of being an eco-friendly superhero!
Stamps
The Museum felt kind of lonely with just Coins, so we’re giving them new friends - Stamps!
Stamps are unique collectables that you can gain after meeting a specific requirement, like performing a certain number of activities or having a certain number of a specific item type. Each of these Stamps has 3 visually distinctive tiers with progressively harder milestones.
Since they aren’t physically in your inventory, stamps don’t work like the other collectables. Instead, we have a new Milestone App in the Phone where you’ll be able to track your progress on each of the stamps and their tiers, which will also notify you whenever you obtain a new stamp! Once a stamp requirement is met you can go to the Museum curator and show him the app to receive the stamp in its respective Museum spot.
Visual Updates
A lot of buildings will look very different in this patch! The Police Station has magically turned into a Post Office… ✨ (licensing requirements, a lot of countries we could not release the game because of police being too political...)
And Star Coffee will from now on be known as Moon Coffee! (We were getting in trouble for copyright...)
A lot of items have also had their icons changed and you may notice some brand-spankin’ new logos for your favourite places around the world!
Phone Rework
The beloved phone is receiving a fabulous makeover, ensuring seamless functionality across both game versions. Better yet, future updates will effortlessly bring new apps and expand existing ones! Not only will it become irresistibly cute, but we're also planning to introduce customization options (later down the line), allowing you to personalize your phone's adorable appearance. Get ready to express your style and embark on a tech-tastic journey!
You might also notice some new additions to the careers app that should make the career experience a bit more spicy in the future! Also, the map has also been updated so all the buildings are easily accessible and visually pleasing!
Have I already mentioned…? There’s a brand new Milestone App!
Conclusion
And there we have it folks!
This is probably the largest patch we’ve ever done, with so many new additions and big changes that I wouldn’t be surprised if you didn’t recognize the game anymore! And I mean that in the best way!
Thank you for your endless support, we sincerely appreciate all the feedback and ideas that you share with us and always strive to bring everything that you imagined to life. We never would have gotten to this point without your trust and loyalty and for that — We’re eternally grateful!
As always, we hope you enjoy the new patch!

You can find the gloves at the Tool section in the D&Y store, keep them in your inventory and whenever you click on a dumpster to clean it, your Sim will automatically equip them! The painting skill is coming to v0.37 next week! You'll be able to purchase easels also at D&Y and paint away!
