Guru Perks & Powers
Gurus do not give out powers for free. To unlock their features, your Sim must:
Find them at their assigned venues
Build friendship
Show behaviour that matches the guru’s ideology
Once trust is high enough, the below special interactions and benefits unlock.
| Guru Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Greenfinger Touch | Build a strong relationship with the Simstainables Guru, and your Sim may be granted the Greenfinger Touch, a free, garden-saving visit that brings your plants back to life and soothes your eco-conscience. But don’t expect instant charity; their trust grows like compost: slowly, warmly, and with effort. |
| Homeland Protection | Earn the approval of the Simlandian Guru, and your Sim unlocks the Call Homeland Protection phone interaction. This summons a private neighbourhood defence unit in place of the police if a burglar appears. They respond quickly—and aggressively. Abuse this power, and your Sim may face serious backlash for false alarms. |
| Tax Loopholes | Forge a relationship with the Plumboblican Guru, and your Sim can request access to a discreet tax loophole. If successful, they’ll receive a generous payout. But loopholes don’t last forever, and creative accounting might catch unwanted attention from tax officials. |
| Black Market Access | Befriend the Llamazonian Guru to unlock the Black Market Deal, a hidden interaction available from 6pm to 6am that lets your Sim sell inventory items for untaxed profit. Libertarian Sims receive better prices. Caught selling? Expect fines and increased surveillance. This feature also supports items from Basemental Drugs, expanding your Sim’s access to the underground economy. |
| Gift of Support | If your Sim’s household funds dip below a certain threshold and they’ve built a solid friendship with the Landshaarer Guru, they may receive an unprompted financial boost. But generosity only flows toward those who’ve earned their trust. |
