Like the Mahjong and Card table, chairs must be placed around this object to be interacted with. When chairs are placed on an adjacent tile, they automatically face the table. Picking up the table picks up any chairs facing it allowing you to move up to five objects at once. Interactions include: | |||
*Play: Children and older can play this game. Sim waits for other sims to join. If no one does then sim will play alone. Once another sim takes a seat, the game begins. This game, unlike chess, doesn't rely on any skill. The winner is completely random. What happens is that the game takes ten turns in which players stack sticks on top of the Llama. After ten turns, the game will continue but will only last up to three extra turns. During those turns, at one sim will lose, ending the game. Sims can be asked to join the game by clicking on a sim and selecting ''Ask to Join''. | |||

The soccer goal can be placed anywhere with enough room. Note that even if you use two goals, sims won't be able to play a full game of soccer. However they can do these interactions: | |||
*Play Soccer: Sim kicks ball towards the goal, giving fun, body and Sports enthusiasm. Sims also lose hygiene, energy and get a rise in body temperature. | |||
*Play With: Two sims play with one sim acting as goalie and the other as shooter. The shooter attempts to score a goal with the outcomes being based on body skill. Low body skill sims may slip and lose their footing while high body skill sims may block an unblockable shot. Sims with sports level 10 will also hear crowd noises as though they were at a real soccer match. Like other interactions, sims get fun, social, body and sports but lose hygiene, energy and rise in body temperature. | |||
*Play Shootout with: Sims take turns trying to shoot and block goals for three turns each. The winner is the one that scores the most goals. Like above, sims at level 10 sports will hear crowd noises and all sims will get the same need effects as the above interaction. | |||
