Handy
Lifetime Wishes: Become an Astronaut, Creature-Robot Cross Breeder, The Tinkerer
Handy is a very useful trait for any Sim. With the handy trait, Sims will be much safer when upgrading objects in the home. Failing to upgrade a television, for example, can produce a nasty electrical shock. Electric Shock is one of the most preventable forms of death in the Sims 3!

Their repaired objects will also resist breaking in the future, resulting in less lost time repairing items in the home. Repair enough plumbing and you can eventually make your plumbing unbreakable, allowing your Sim to upgrade all plumbing with self-cleaning, allowing for both upgrades at once.

Game Description

  • Your Sim will always succeed when repairing or upgrading objects.
  • Your Sim learns the handiness skill more quickly than other Sims.
  • When your Sim repairs an object it's as good as new!
