A helpful post for The Sims Medieval for iOS / iPhone

Taking advantage of EA Games’ sale for this app, I played it nonstop for about two days creating a good-aligned character who quickly became king. A female king, that I enjoyed. Your goal is to complete 43 quests, choosing different titles as your sim climbs the social ladder. I found myself in battles without a guild, with neutral alignment for most of the game and then at the 40th quest I didn’t see any new quests available. Here are my tips:

Be sure to collect detailed props around the land, at the market you can buy seeds, weapons, recipes and various objects for quests (a ring, a scepter-like stick, bait for fishing). You’ll also find at the market a chicken coop where an evil sim can steal eggs, a wooden chest to steal simoleans. Any sim can pick from the ground two plants -sage, and mushroom. Pick them whenever they’re ripe. Your sim can fish small and medium fish at the market by the bridge, fulfilling fun and skill all in one action. You’ll find very small and large fish in the river by the forest, which appears midway in the game. To catch big fish, you’ll need to search the firewood in the tavern for superbait or just buy it from the market.

Next tip: plant seeds early on, then harvest/gather them and keep them in your inventory. Your early days will require vegetables, not the seeds, for quests. Your later quests (38-43) will require the seeds, especially if you run into the Stranger, or go into magic.

Upgrade your bed ASAP. Those Focus Points are timed and you get a recharge about once a day, so get as much good sleep everyday. When you’ve been promoted, new items will appear in the buy furniture screen when you’re at home. Must-have items are a wooden chest or box, large stack of firewood for finding seeds, plants and bait, upgrading your food reserves: buffet, cellar. The desk, armory (for training) and mirror will appear in the furniture screen when you’ve reached a certain level. (As king, I had everything: King Arthur’s table, a throne, armory, four-poster bed.)

Visit the tavern for socializing, playing the dice game and working out, as much as you can. Add sims to you guild ASAP. Potential guild members will appear grey in map view, and have to be of the same alignment, e.g. good or evil, and have to be visiting (not a permanent character).

When you’ve hit a wall and need quests to finish the game, turn your alignment around: either to neutral (and get the Stranger quest) or opposite your current alignment. Your guild will automatically dissolve (break up), because your sim and them obviously are very different.

To sum up my tips:
Collect items, garden, fish, create a guild (and then fight Will Dabest or challenges in the market), search hidden spots (in the graveyard and forest when they appear on the map), visit the tavern for one-stop socializing, and switch alignments at least once by taking Keena’s offer to befriend her at some time (you have to do this to finish the game).
