Step by step walkthrough of all the game quests and rewards!
In case you haven’t noticed by the big advert popping up when launching The Sims 4, the Reaper’s Rewards Event is now active and available for play!
The second Season of The Sims 4 Live Events seems to be more polished and goes beyond just logging into your game and claiming rewards like in the previous Season. In the Second Season, you have to complete new quests that get unlocked each week through gameplay in Live Mode.
Completing each step in the Quest will earn you bits of new Event Points that you can use to spend at the Rewards Store. Each Week there’s new items to unlock as you progress through the event, and for this Week we have five reward items. 3 of which are unique for unlocking and attaining to your personal EA ID. Personally, I really hope the new Sims 4 Reaper’s Rewards Event doesn’t lose your progress after a while like with the Happy at Home Login Event. Speaking of – The Sims Team did confirm that progress from the previous Event should be resolved in their upcoming Sims 4 bug fix updates. Stay tuned for more info on that!
This article will be updated regularly with new information at the start of each week on how to complete new week’s quests. Bookmark this article and stay up to date for 6 weeks of different in-game quests!

Sims 4 Reaper’s Rewards Event Quests
During each week, The Sims 4 Reaper’s Rewards Event will present new quests that you can finish in Live Mode. Each quest requires you to do a set of different interactions (or perform new ones exclusive with the event). Completing each step in the quest will provide you with Event Points that you can use up on the Rewards Store.
Let’s see what each brings to this new live event:
Week 1 (September 24th – October 1st)
Pssttt…Hey, you…
Over the centuries, my memory has started to grow foggy. I’ve heard rumblings about a special dish called “Ambrosia” that could jeopardize my job.
Complete the Assistant to the Grim Reaper and A Call Away quests to help me understand it.
Assistant to the Grim Reaper
Ask 3 Sims about Ambrosia (35 Event Points) – Someone must know something about Ambrosia! Socialize with three Sims and select Ask about Ambrosia. Make sure your Sim has introduced themselves first!
Order a Starter Flower Seed Packet (25 Event Points) – Purchase a Starter seed packet from the Activities and Skills section in Build Mode, or use the Order interaction on a Computer.
Plant a Lily (25 Event Points) – Plant the Lily from the Starter flower seed packet. Hint: Plant it under a roof to ensure they are in season.
Plant a Snapdragon (25 Event Points) – Plant the Snapdragon from the Starter flower seed packet.
Research a plant (35 Event Points) – Getting the ingredients needed requires a green thumb. Reach level 2 in Gardening, select a plant, and Research it.
Research Ambrosia on your Phone, a Tablet, or a Computer (25 Event Points) – Research Ambrosia from the Home app on the Phone, or select the Research Ambrosia interaction on a Computer or Tablet.
A Call Away
Wait for the Ambrosia Society Newsletter (15 Event Points) – It’s coming! Wait for t he mail to get delivered or you can Expedite your mail from the Home app on your Phone.
I personally recommend that you Expedite the Mail Delivery if you don’t want to wait 24 Sim Hours for that next day delivery. It’s just 103 Simoleons!
Read the Ambrosia Society’s Newsletter (25 Event Points) – It’s here! Select your mailbox and Get Mail, then Select the Ambrosia Society’s Newsletter from your Sim’s inventory and read it.
Cook a recipe while level 3 or higher (35 Event Points) – You’ll need to know how to cook to make Ambrosia! Level up your cooking skill at the Fridge, Stove, or even a TV…then cook a recipe!
Buy The Grimophone (15 Event Points) – Claim The Grimophone reward from the Event and buy it from Build Mode in the Electronics category.
Summon the Grim Reaper (25 Event Points) – It’s time to meet the Grim Reaper. Select Summon the Grim Reaper from the Grimophone.
Meet or Socialize with the Grim Reaper (25 Event Points) – The Grim Reaper looks fairly friendly…Select the Grim Reaper and select an introduction or any social.
Ask the Spirits about Ambrosia (100 Event Points) – Select Ask the Spirits about Ambrosia on a Seance table.
This specific quest step in The Sims 4 Reaper’s Rewards Event requires you to have The Sims 4 Paranormal Stuff Pack in order to finish it. “Coincidentally” it’s one of the highest-rated Quest step, so it seems that, in case you don’t have the 10 dollar Stuff Pack yet, EA is encuraging you to get it in order to complete the Quest experience.
Thankfully I do have the Stuff Pack, but I’m wondering how other Simmers might feel after being advertised with a free Event like this, only to discover that Simmers with extra DLC are in 100 Event point bigger advantage.
Week 1 Event Rewards (September 24th)
Each The Sims 4 Reaper’s Rewards Event week will unlock a set of different rewards that you can claim using Event Points. Some of the Event Points will even be encouraged to be spent through Event Quests, so hitting the max level bar should be done appropriately if you complete the quests each week.
Down below is an overview of all the rewards that we’ll be covering as they become available in the game. Starting with first week’s Sims 4 Event Rewards!
There are two sets of Rewards that you’ll be getting throughout the entire Reaper’s Rewards Event. The first set is gameplay items and powerups from the base game which we already have, while the second unlocks new gameplay and Build / CAS items. That are yours to keep forever after claiming each one throughout the event.
For the first week, here are the sets you get from Base Game powerups and objects:
- Gardening Vol 1. Skill Book
- Cooking Vol 1. Skill Book
- Happy Potion
- Energized Potion
All of these can be claimed in Live Mode directly to your Sim’s inventory.
And here are the exclusive Event Rewards for Week 1:
Original Freezer Boney
A supremely skeletal Freezer Boney. It would be much more terrifying to stumble upon one of these if they weren’t so darn cute.
The Grimophone
A supernatural sound system with a direct line to Grim himself, allowing his mortal acquintances to summon him day or night. It can also play your favorite tunes, if you’re into that sort of thing.
Scare Seeker Lot Challenge
There’s something in the air here that fills you with eldritch excitement, and attracts Sims looking for a ghoulishly good time.
Earrings of Imminent Demise
See the full gallery of new variants below!
Week 2

Cook a recipe while level 4 or higher (35 Event Points) – You’ll need to know how to cook to make Ambrosia! Level up your cooking skill at the Fridge, Stove, or even a TV…then cook a recipe!

This Sims 4 Reaper’s Rewards step is pretty easy. Simply head to any fishing sign nearby and wait until you catch three fish!
