Holiday Gnomes City Living Apartments

This is my first time playing Harvestfest in an apartment in San Myshuno and much to my dismay I have not seen the Holiday Gnomes. Do they show up in apartments?

My sim lives in the Lobo apt in Uptown. I checked the apt and the neighborhood and I did not see any gnomes.

    My sim lives in apartment 930 Medina Studios and just recently celebrated Harvestfest 2 days ago. The gnomes + seed packets appeared. I didn't count the gnomes nor did I take any screenshots but if I had to guess... 4 gnomes? (A few in the kitchen and one in the bedroom.) With 3 sims in the household.
  • Do you have room for them to spawn? I just played my Sims in an apartment over the weekend and they spawned for me. It's usually 3 that spawn for me no matter how many Sims live there. You can always just buy them and they do the same thing.

    Do you guys get one gnome for every sim in the household you're playing? Say you're playing with 5 sims, I used to have 5 gnomes spawn, one for everyone so they can complete the tradition.

    Now I might get 2 or 3 so I always have to go into build mode to add enough for all sims to complete the tradition. Anyone else experience that? I don't know if it's a bug or an intended change, for some reason.


    I’ve never gotten any number other than three, no matter how big or small the family is.


    Weird. I've always had the number of spawned gnomes correlate with the number of sims (except toddlers) whether that be 2, 5 or 8... It stopped being that way for me this year some time. Even weirder when @annalee87 seems to have 3 like you. Even though @SimplyJen might have gotten more than 3. Strange.
    Maybe my game was bugged until now xD

    Shame to have to go to build/ buy mode to get more though since it takes away from the game, I don't mind spending the simoleons but I'd rather no gnomes spawn than not enough. Maybe I should just remove the tradition then.
