Collectibles guide
Sim Companies has a limited amount of very rare, special, items you can collect. It’s possible to showcase them in your display case for everyone to see. These items do not bring any gameplay advantage.
There are currently 2 mechanisms of adding collectible items: One of a Kind, First to Produce.
ONE OF A KIND
Workers of our companies, both production, and retail, occasionally, about every 25 to 35 days, find a rare, collectible item. For example, your car factory workers can stumble upon an old “1956 Jaguar XK140”-like-car in one of the old warehouses.
More examples of rare items: Saturn V, Apple-1, …
FIRST TO PRODUCE
Each time a product of certain quality is produced for the first time, the player producing it gets collectibles. For example, when the first BFR quality 12 is produced, there will be a collectible item: one BFR-Q-12.
There will be varying amounts of the collectible items generated, based on the quality:
Q11 to Q12 - a single item
Q6+ - 10 items
First-to-produce collectibles, the 10 collectibles will be given to 10 different companies, who are first to produce the items.
Players will receive a Personal Assistant (PA) message about producing the Collectible item. Be aware that it could take one (1) hour for the Collectible to show up in the Collectibles Vault.
Note: Many of the qualities were produced before the Collectibles update. Please see the Collectors tab in the Encyclopedia; “collectibles not found yet,” for what is currently available. We will not track down the original producers of Q/item combinations already in circulation. E.g. Apple Q2 (meaning as of the date of the update; anything that existed as produced in that quality will not be retroactive).
Note: the items shown in the image above may be out of date.
