Sims Freeplay Quests and Tips: Quest: The Hidden Unicorn

The hidden unicorn

This quest has a time limit of 3 days, in which the unicorn rocking horse can be unlocked.
This quest was last verified with the Family Furnishings update (July 2019).

1. Inspect show jumping gate (send a Sim over, instantly)
(Your Sims have a hankering to do some Show Jumping and the field over to the right of the Stables would be the perfect place!
Have a Sim investigate the lock on the gate.)

2. Investigate horse (there's a unicorn close to the jumping gate and lake, tap it, 14 secs)
(Your Sim doesn't know who locked the gate, but it's going to take incredible power to open it. Wait! Is that a horse near the lake? What's that doing there?
Have a Sim investigate the horse, near the lake at the Stables.)

3. Check unicorns horn (24 secs)
(Your Sim can't believe their eyes! Is that a Unicorn? A real live sparkly Unicorn?
Have your Sim check its horn to make sure it's real!)

4. Talk to unicorn (2 mins)
(Wow... That's definitely a real Unicorn!
It looks like it has something to say, so talk to it!)

5. Go home and call a friend (4 mins)
(The Unicorn didn't speak in the way that most Sims do, but spoke of candy and rainbows. Your Sim needs to tell their friends about this immediately! Have them call a friend on the phone from home.)

6. Call two Sims to the stables (immediately)
(Now that your Sims friend knows about the unicorn, they can't wait to see it!
Bring two of your Sims to the Stables!)

7. Laugh with Sim (extra option, 5 mins)
(The unicorn is gone! Your Sim covered up the embarrassment of the unicorn's absence by telling their friend that it "hoofed it". Have your Sims laugh together at this hilariously bad joke.)

8. Investigate a tree (2 mins 12 secs)
(Now that your Sims have finished drying their eyes from the Unicorn joke, one of them has spotted something sparkly in one of the trees near the lake. Have a Sim investigate a tree near the lake at the Stables.)

9. Talk to a Sim about unicorns (extra option, 1 min 30 secs)
(Hmm... The tree has some kind of glitter in it! This can only be the work of a Unicorn, but your Sim doesn't know where it went. Time to get some help. Talk to another Sim about the Unicorn.)

10. Look up Unicorns on a computer (15 mins)
(The Sim hasn't seen the Unicorn but did suggest checking the internet for more clues.
Have your Sim look up unicorns on a computer.)

11. Talk to a Sim about shy unicorns (2 mins 30 secs)
(According to the wonderous internet, Unicorns are magical creatures that like to meet people, but are also terribly shy.
Have your Sim ask another Sim about how Unicorns cope with shyness.)

12. Read "Pooping rainbows" (bookshelf, 9 mins)
(Your Sims' friend saw a great book on the subject of Unicorns. It also had a special chapter all about shyness. Check it out! Go read "Pooping Rainbows". It's in a bookshelf!)

13. Talk to a Sim about the unicorn (1 min 30 secs)
(According to the book "Pooping Rainbows", unicorns love to jump. What if the Unicorn was waiting at the Stables because it loves Show Jumping, but your Sims came and scared it away? Perhaps they can coax it back with some sort of food. Talk to another Sim about what Unicorns eat.)

14. Bake Rocky Road (12 hrs, can be prepared)
(Your Sims' friend had the answer! Unicorns eat Rocky Road of course! Bake some Rocky Road now to lure the Unicorn with.)

15. Call a Sim to the stables (immediately)
(Great! The Rocky Road is ready, and it's time to lure that Unicorn out of hiding! Have a Sim go to the Stables now.)

16. Leave Rocky Road for unicorn (the X near the jumping gate is blinking. Tap it. 12 secs)
(Your Sim can see the perfect spot for this Rocky Road, near the Show Jumping gate.
Have a Sim place some Rocky Road near the gate. 'X' marks the spot.)

17. Wait for the unicorn (there's an exclamation mark over one tree, tap it. 12 hrs 30 mins)
(The trap is set, so all your Sim needs to do now is wait. Have your Sim wait behind a tree near the lake and wait for the Unicorn to return.)

18. Have a deep sleep (6 hrs 30 mins, 3-star bed)
(Gasp! There's the Unicorn! But it looks too shy to come out and eat the Rocky Road. Your Sim thinks they should leave so the Unicorn can eat in peace. Why not have them get a little rest while they're at it? Have your Sim go for a Deep Sleep in a bed.)

19. Go to the stables (immediately)
(Great! A good sleep is just what your Sim needed. Oh wait! The Unicorn! I wonder how it's going?
Go back to the Stables!)

20. Read the note (tap the X near the jumping gate, 1 min)
(Oh look! The Unicorn left!... AND, he ate the Rocky Road!... AND, he unlocked the Show Jumping gate! Wow! Is that a note near the gate? Have a Sim read the note near the Show Jumping gate. 'X' marks the spot.)

21. Tap show jumping gate to fix it (§ 50,000, 8 hrs)
(The note was from the Unicorn! It said "Thank you for the Rocky Road. In return I've unlocked the Show Jumping gate for you. I must overcome my shyness, but I will return when the time is right." Incredible! Tap on the Show jumping gate, then repair it.)

To get the unicorn: clean up and repair the jumping area, then use 3star horses to do the hobby Show Jumping (or use lucky spin)

The unicorn is like the other horses only for staying in the stables.

The Stables can hold max. 6 horses!

Finish:

Happy Simming!
