Why are the Gnomes for the Seasons EP so Scary?

One of my sims with the evil trait kicked a gnome once.... What a disaster that was! There might not be a death by gnome revenge, but gnome revenge is a really scary thing to experience!

My sim has not had any more gnomes appear since getting rid.

My Sim child kicked one and this happened later that night.

:open_mouth:

I usually try to keep them happy at this point.. been playing awhile. I call on them in a new save when I need to start a garden and my sims are poor. No wonder they demand respect... All Hail!
Love that picture @ParmaViolet87 looks like something you could build a real story around.
I agree though @BoergeAarg61 they made it so those of us that like them can use them and easy-peasy you can take them out if you don't.

The first time I discovered gnomes, I decided to see what would happen if I kicked one. Nothing really happened straight away so I decided to kick another. That's 2 gnomes kicked.
Later that day I'd scheduled a dinner party for Harvestfest, and let's just say it didn't go super well. Like, 2 hours before the party was supposed to start, my 2 sims were rushing around fixing everything and mopping water up from everywhere, and trying to control their set of twin babies who WOULDN'T STOP CRYING!!

The party rolled around and they'd managed to prepare half the food, but everything was still breaking and leaking and I was doing my best, but to no avail. Did I mention it was storming outside?
Eventually, about 3 hours before the party was due to end, I gave up. I put on the stereo, set the food on the table, and called everyone to the meal to eat.
Right as I did that though, there was a power outage. I thought it'd be fun to install the power outage mod. Bad idea.

For the next few hours, everyone was forced to eat in darkness, with everything around them broken, water and trash everywhere, while 2 dumb babies in the next room over were crying non-stop.



Good party.

Three gnomes appeared during Harvestfest. It's now after New Year's, and they're still there and tossing seed packets. My sim is new and sells the seeds for the money, so it's not a huge problem (though it's time-consuming), but the gnomes stopped distributing after Harvestfest in my other households. Is this supposed to happen or did my little guys get stuck? I think they're hilarious, and they're a great source of likely accidental income. Just curious.

They stay until you delete them.

I think it's really fun when the gnomes come along, although they are a bit annoying when they are angry, they shower you with stuff when they are happy so it's kind of like tossing a dice.

I like the gnomes, but I did take them off of Harvestfest and put them in a different holiday that I made up that seems more suitable.

all of them are a bit creepy to me. i don't even put the "cute" gnomes in my game.
