IMHO, having triplets depends on the "heads". I've had some families that have NEVER had triplet, but others that have had them on the first try.

Now, this may be the luck of the draw, but when the time comes to choose a new spouse, try to find one that's either in a totally different area of the "heads chart" or one that is close to the same.

I've had good luck with the red-haired women and blond haired men near the bottom of the big heads chart.


I've also had better luck with "poor" families. The peeps who make little to start seem to have a better chance of having twins or trips.

Or....maybe it's just random!!

Oh! About the rare collectables....I've found that if I play at at time when I usually DON'T play (like really early in the am or late in the pm), I seem to find more of them....then again....

maybe it's just random!
