Secret societies control all aspects of college inThe Sims 2. Members aren’t incredibly hidden, as all wear their llama logo in public. However, just because they can be seen doesn’t mean you can be invited. Instead, you must befriend several recruiters and then undergo an initiation ceremony. But, afterwards, there are plenty of rewards that can assist with graduating and even beyond into a future career.

Since colleges are part ofTS2: University, all aspects are fairly disconnected from the main neighborhood hubs.Joining a secret society is mostly suited to single young adults who are only recently out of high school, like some of thereturning Sims fromTS1. If your storyline is currently focused on parenting or children, then there is probably not enough time for higher education. Likewise, playing as mainly older Sims will have little time to actually enjoy the benefits of being in a secret society.

The biggest new feature is the ability to hack a computer. This lets you improve your own grades, but the lower their logic skill, the more likely you are to get caught.
