Getting inside Earl's ghost's house
To get inside Earl's ghost's house, you will have to pick the lock ten to twenty times. Sometimes when you go into the sewer, the screen will move to a selected location. Go there and take the chairs. They sell for 1,000 Simoleons.

Alternately, get your mechanical skill points to about four and pick the lock once to open it.

To get to the Haunted Shack where you will find Earl the ghost, you must take the sewers, which you will unlock. To find the correct ladder in the sewers, you must go all the way to the southwest corner. The correct ladder is there. You must have four points of logic to talk to Earl the ghost, only at night. To unlock the gate to the shack, you must pick the lock from ten to twenty times. The riddles that you have to solve that Earl will give you are for a Crystal Ball Table, a Suit of Armor, a Venus Fly Trap, and something else. Be careful -- if you get one wrong, Earl will knock you out and you will end up in the hospital and must start the questions all over.

Heidi Shadows: All

Using the library
When advancing skills in the library, the process will not get disrupted when either one of your bars are depleted, unlike the gym. The painting easel will also not disrupt the process. Thus, you can leave your character to advance the skill until you hear the familiar guitar sound. However, if you overdo it, your character might pass out from not eating.

Library vs. gym
The gym will reduce your stamina bar and hygiene bar but the library will only reduce the comfort bar, and also much slower.

Selling paintings
Go to the lover's spot in the painting mission and buy a canvas and paint a masterpiece. After you go to the lover's spotm you will never be able to sell paintings for money again.

Ghostly Gift
Go to the Waterfront Villa. The man hole there leads to the sewers. In there you should see the Ghostly Gift (or urn). Pick it up for the "Goal Completed" message.

Pizza mini-game
In the pizza min-game, you can move the plate that you launch pizza on from side to side by pressing [Right] or [Left], however do not move it too fast. You will drop the pizza and lose your ingredients.

Burglar
Every time you get burgled, think of Giuseppi. Also, after he is arrested, you will not get burgled anymore.

Aluminum cans
In the entire game you will need 35 aluminum cans. Do not sell them until you finish those quests. Besides, they are the lowest valued of the five sellable items.

Most likely every day, you can find two cans on the grass patch in front of the Waterfont villa.

Paradise Island
You must go to Paradise Island to receive four items at the store which you cannot get anywhere else: Denizen Cane Double Bed, Denizen Cane Bamboo Chair, Denizen Cane Bamboo Recliner, and Giant Tiki Head. You cannot get them at the General Store or Cheatum And Howe's Retail. You can get to Paradise Island by linking two Game Boy Advances with The Sims: Bustin' Out.

Sand castles
You can build a sand castle by the Dockside Dinner in the sand, next to the boat.

Friends
You will need 13 friends in the entire game (above 50). Note: In Chapter 5 you must get relationships with O Phil and Misty Waters to -50' do not waste your efforts on them (after you get Bait Slinger).

Free items
Link two Game Boy Advances together and go to the library in both games. Go to the computer to link them together. At the computer, there will be an auction-like setting, but with only the players. To give free items have one player choose an item, then lower the price to 0 by pressing [Down]. The player who gave the item away should then exit out of the auction and turn off their Game Boy Advance without saving. When it is turned back on, you will have all the items you traded away, and the person you traded them to will also have them.

Glitch: Fire
This happens when you have a fire alarm installed and your stove catches fire. Then, the fire will show up at your door entrance for a brief moment.

Glitch: Lottie Cash dialogue
Sometimes when you call Lottie Cash early in the morning she will say she is tanning on Paradise Island.
