Accessibility Suggestions
We’ve created a forum post asking the community for suggestions on how we can improve gameplay for players with certain conditions such as colorblindness, dyslexia, or anything else that might affect a players ability to use the standard presentation and controls of the game.
If you have any ideas or suggestions, and possible solutions on how to solve a particular issue, please check out the forum post here.
May 2022 Condo Contest Ending Soon!
The objective for this contest is to make a bedroom!
You can create the room yourself or decorate one of the rooms in any of the purchasable Condos. It can be as ambitious or simple as you like (feel free to theme it however you want), as long as it follows the rules and is understandably a bedroom.
The deadline to submit entries is May 29th, 2022 at 11:59 PM CT.
Learn how to enter this contest here.
