Q about Strangerville story

Question

If my main and only sim in the household, who im going through the story with, is infected; can I still play through the whole story without needing the help of a another sim to fix her and/or also solve the mystery? I could solve the mystery when she isn't possessed, right? The only thing im concerned about is healing her/fixing her so that she isn't infected anymore; I'll have to add someone to the household, aren't i?

Yes, you can.Spoiler (Highlight to read)If your sim is infected, they won't be posessed all the time. The posessed moodlet lasts for 3 hours and after that your sim is normal. The infected trait makes sims posessed random times, but it won't be often. It happens about twice a day.It does offer benefits though. If your sim is posessed, all their needs will be filled to the max and won't decay while they are posessed.The disadvantage is that infected sims cannot fight the mother plant. The good news is that once you discover the mother plant, you can start making vaccines, which will cure your sim and allow them to fight with the mother plant.Interesting thing to note: If your sim dies after losing a fight with the mother plant, their ghost's needs will never decay.If your sim is infected, they won't be posessed all the time.

Ok so does that mean...Spoiler (Highlight to read)If my sim loses the fight with the mother, she will actually die. I thought that it would kind of be like when you spar with a vampire and then you just get defeated and lose but you're still alive. I guess I'll have to prepare some ambrosia for later since a lot of people seem to have difficutlies defeating the mother. Also one person befriended it? How do you do that? Do you have an option to fight it and/or talk to it? Im still at the early stages/chapters of it, so I dont really know anything about what happens at the final boss fight.If my sim loses the fight with the mother, she will actually die.

And will I have to get someone else to find her first and then give her ambrosia? Will she be in strangerville if she dies there? (Her ghost)

Im still at the early stages/chapters of it, so I dont really know anything about what happens at the final boss fight.The answer to the spoiler question is...Spoiler (Highlight to read)If your sim tries to fight alone, they'll get a dazed moodlet with a notification that it's best to find other sims to fight with her. If your sim tries to fight her again when the dazed moodlet has not expired (2 hours), the mother plant will eat them. Grim Reaper won't come. The urn appears in front of the platform after some time.However, from let's plays, I've seen that sims doesn't get that dazed moodlet when fighting with a team. So don't worry about that.If your sim tries to fight alone, they'll get a dazed moodlet with a notification that it's best to find other sims to fight with her.

Spoiler (Highlight to read)If your sim is infected, they can make friends with Mother, and some really nice things will happen between the infected sim and Mother, I won't say anymore so as not to really spoil things.  I have a sim who purposely got herself infected, and now she has something....well I won't say, let you find this out.  :)If your sim is infected, they can make friends with Mother, and some really nice things will happen between the infected sim and Mother, I won't say anymore so as not to really spoil things.
