[SPOILERS] Rare Child Experiments - 10/17/10 06:26 AM

I'm interested to know if anyone is conducting rare child experiments (twins/triplets/rainbow-haired) for the iPhone/iTouch version of Virtual Families. I was just reading about such experiments for the Windows/Mac version, and I want to know if I can do similar things on my iTouch game.
Please reply if you are conducting an experiment or if you know someone who is. Thanks!

Nobody's experimented with rainbow-hair for the iphone/itouch version of V.F., so I thought I'd give it a go.
Part 1
I had to choose the right person, which took forever since tapping endlessly on 'try again' isn't the funnest job in the world, but I finally got my rainbow-haired girl called Blondie, which seems kind of funny.
I'm still rejecting marriage proposals right now...I'll post more updates later.


By the way, how do you post photos?

In one of my first families (on the PC) I got a rainbow-haired girl called Blondie, as well! At the time I didn't know that there was anything special about her, though.

Thanks for trying Midii, I hope you get the results soon

Did your Blondie look like this, arnie? I hope I attached the photo correctly.

Yes, Midii, it's almost good!

Anyway, your Blondie is very cute! grin

Yes, that's her. In fact, her name seems popular for rainbow-haired girls. There's a pic of my Blondie, and mention of another, here.

Ok, I have to show off here! This was part of my experiment for getting Rainbow Families. There were more families that came after these but I'm sure you get the idea. smile Mine was not done on an iPad/iPhone/iPod touch.

I've never done that sort of experiment before. I just like to let the game take its course, but maybe one day I might just get a rainbow haired child. But I don't think it will work with this family I have because they mostly have brown hair. Oh well. Perhaps another time.

How does one get a compatible partner? I mean, I can click myself into carpal tunnel & finally get a rainbow woman, but the marriage proposals she is going to get are totally random, with the chances of her getting a Mohawk or blue spikey haired husband very very slim.

It is much more difficult (and at times seemingly impossible!) to find a specific partner on the iOS version of the game, simply due to the inability to create backup save game files. Those were used in the Windows/Mac version of the game to restore the game to a previous time to 'try again' for a compatible partner.

Yeah I've recently purchased the PC version of the game and am doing that...its definitely a trail of patience.

I've really been wanting to try this. I FINALLY found a woman with rainbow hair that wants kids. Now I'm having trouble finding a husband.

I hope you're not rejecting any that don't want kids. Even though they may say that they don't want them, they are still likely to have them, although it might take a little longer before they "catch"*. It's hard enough to find rare peeps as it is!

*Much like Real Life, in fact. smile

how did you do that? Is it a cheat?

It's not a cheat. smile

Rare children are a facet of the game that many people enjoy experimenting with and is explained in the first post in this thread. smile
