Prima Games has officially confirmed that there will not be a Prima Guide available for The Sims 3 Island Paradise upon release, however, they have confirmed a “Compilation” guide around the Holidays.
No details have been released regarding the compilation guide, but my guess is that it will include Seasons, University Life, and Island Paradise, as those guides were not available in print form. As more details emerge, we will update you.

Hello world! My name is Petar, and you probably know me best as the creator of SimsVIP’s PDF Game Guides & Manuals. If you have downloaded any of the PDF guides in the last two years, it was me who created them! About two years have passed since we published our first game guide (Generations), and I want to share the game guide process with you. Lets start! ![]()
There are a few goals we always want to achieve when we start preparing for our guides. The guides need to be thorough, unique, and beautiful, so we must make sure they are! After we put together the format and sections of a guide, I begin works on PDF sketches. I usually do few sketches before making them public, and then pick the best format of all. The picture below is an example of my early sketch for the Sims 3 University Life PDF guide. The final version excluded the lime green color, and was exclusively orange.
The latest update to our Premium Content Guide includes information for the “Large as Life Movie Screen”, “Barrier to Entry System”, “Fowl and Feathers Chicken Coop”, “Let it Ride Roulette Table”, and “Dead Man’s Hand Poker Table”. This means we are currently up to date!
Please remember that the content in our premium content guide is listed in order of release, so scroll down for the latest info posts.
Our Sims 3 University Life Game Guide PDF’s are now available for you to view online and/or download. The PDF links can always be found on the game guide’s page. Enjoy!
Special Thanks to Sim Hrvatska for the PDF’s!
Yipeee! The SimsVIP University Life Game Guide is now complete! I hope that the information found in the guide is useful to everyone, and I thank you for your patience. If there is anything I have missed, or anything that needs to be corrected, please let me know here in the comments! ![]()

University is right around the corner simmers!
I have just finished updating the fact sheet with information from the latest fansite/developer previews. This will be the final update I make to the fact sheet, as I have begun progress on the University Game Guide.
Our University Guide is once again the most anticipated guide, because as most of you know, there will not be a printed (or downloadable) Prima Guide. The Prima Guide will only be available as an “online only” $19.99 eGuide, which cannot even be printed, and requires constant internet access.
As a reminder, the SimsVIP University Guide will be free and available in PDF form for you to view on a tablet/smartphone, download & print. I have also scheduled some time off work to begin the guide immediately upon release with no interruption.
With that said, check out the University fact sheet to hold you over until your game arrives!
I have already started work on our University guide! During the week of University’s release, I am taking the week off work to complete the full guide. Our readers will have a thorough and detailed guide to refer to within days of release.
Our Guide PDF’s are downloadable and printable, so no need to be online to view the guide! The guides are also Tablet and smartphone friendly. I’m looking forward to completion of the University guide, and I want to thank everyone for making all of our guides a success! ![]()
Petar from SimHrvatska is the talented Simmer who helps create the PDF Guide Layouts for all of my Game Guides, and today, I am happy to share our completed design for the SimsVIP University Guide!

The Sims 3 70′s, 80′s & 90′s Game Manual is now complete, and available for your viewing pleasure. PDF’s are in the works and will be available by the end of the week.

Our Sims 3 Seasons Game Guide PDF’s are now available for you to view online and/or download. The PDF links can always be found on the game guide’s page. Enjoy!
Special Thanks to Sim Hrvatska for the PDF’s!
