MySims Kingdom DS Money Guide: How to Earn the Most Simoleans in the Shortest Time

In MySims Kingdom for the Nintendo DS system, earning money to decorate your apartment can sometimes be a difficult process. Some of the minigames rely too much on luck while others require you to have some type of superhuman skill. For those of us mere mortals who want to buy the best furniture for the 3 houses we are given in MySims Kingdom DS, there are a few ways to make sure your bank account is packed with Simoleans.

MySims Kingdom DS Money Secret #1: Master The Ski Jumping

From my experience, ski jumping has been the quickest and most fun way to earn money in MySims Kingdom DS. Usually I'm able to earn 9000 Simoleans for each round I play. First, you'll want to work your way up to the Hard difficulty level. Once you have that, you will want to compete Head to Head against the computer.

To perform better at this game, you need to work on your timing skills. The secret to doing this with the winged skis (which you earn after successfully earning a medal in sky jumping) is to tap the stylus and blow air into the microphone at the same time. If you try to tap after blowing, you'll most likely miss the Jump button when it comes up since it flashes for such a short amount of time. But if you're tapping quickly while blowing air into the microphone, you'll hit the jump button at least 99% of the time. Since you will be tapping very quickly, you probably won't have much time to set the angle. However, the speed you're going at plus winding the wheel after you jump will take you very far. Usually you'll land over 300m if you're doing it correctly.

MySims Kingdom DS Money Secret # 2: Handing Out Balloons System

If you have a great short term memory, handing out balloons in the various shops in MySims Kingdom DS is the best way for you to earn tons of Simoleans. However, not everyone has been blessed with a photographic memory. After all, keeping all those balloon names in your head is really difficult if you don't have a system. To make it easier, you first want to give each of the balloons a one letter name. For example, instead of thinking heart, you should only think H. H for heart, D for diamond, B for blimp, S for star, P for puppy, F for flower. Then, you'll want to have a piece of paper and pen on your lap or sitting next to you.

As the people in the game present the balloons, you should write down just the letter for each of the pictures. This way, it will make it easier to remember. You'll be able to reference the paper and quickly choose the right picture. When you reach the Hard difficulty level, you'll keep on entering a Bonus Round until you mess up. Be careful in the Hard difficulty as the location of the buttons will change so you will have to pay more attention than you did in the Easy and Normal levels. Writing down the letters worked so well that I messed on purpose because the game was lasting too long. This is a great way to keep on earning more and more Simoleans.

Having three houses in MySims Kingdom DS means you're going to have to earn a substantial amount of money to decorate each of them in a way that pleases you. Following these two secrets should make it easier for you to earn the Simoleans you need.
