How To Get Abducted By Aliens in The Sims 2

Discover tips and tricks on how to get abducted by aliens in The Sims 2.

Aliens are a fun and often unpredictable element of The Sims 2. While abductions are largely random, there are ways to increase your Sims' chances of an encounter. This guide details those methods.

The Sims 2: How To Get Abducted By Aliens

Strategies to Increase Alien Contact:

Several methods can make alien abductions more likely:

• Telescope Use: Using a telescope offers a chance of abduction. There are two telescopes available in Buy Mode (Hobbies > Knowledge):

  • Astrowonder Telescope (550 Simoleons)
  • Farstar e3 Telescope (2,100 Simoleons) Both "Look Through" and "Stargaze" interactions can trigger an abduction, though the chance is small.

• Knowledge Aspiration (Summon Aliens): Sims with a maxed-out Knowledge Aspiration can summon aliens. This requires unlocking all three extra benefits in the Aspiration Rewards menu using Aspiration Bonus Points. If you're short on points, you can use cheats:

• Enter boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true in the cheat console.
• Shift-click your Sim, select "Set Aspiration," and choose "Max." This will unlock the alien summoning ability.
• Use the telescope to summon aliens and increase the chance of an abduction.

• ElectroDance Sphere: Adult Sims who have been previously abducted have a higher chance of being abducted again while using the ExtremeCo ElectroDance Sphere (Buy Mode > Hobbies > Exercise, 3,500 Simoleons). Choose "Spin" and an intensity level. Alternatively, use the free sphere at the Crypt-O Club.

• The Curious Family (Pre-programmed): The easiest way to experience an alien abduction is to play the Curious family in Strangetown. Vidcund Curious is programmed to be abducted the first time he uses the telescope. Pascal Curious is already pregnant with an alien child. They have telescopes on their roof and tower.

Cheats and Abductions:

Currently, there are no known cheats that directly trigger alien abductions. However, this may change with future game updates.

The Abduction Experience:

Abductions are depicted through a cutscene. Your Sim will disappear, their needs will fluctuate drastically, eerie music will play, and upon their return, they will have a new memory of the experience.

Alien Pregnancies:

Abducted adult Sims may return pregnant with a half-alien child. The father is Pollination Technician (who is visible in the family tree). The pregnancy proceeds like a normal Sim pregnancy.

Important Note:

The abduction functionality has been known to have some bugs. Make sure your game is fully patched to minimize the risk of encountering these issues.
