Finding the Matchmaker

• The Matchmaker doesn't have a specific home. She can sometimes be found wandering around downtown on community lots, but the easiest way to encounter her is to call her on a phone. Have the Sim place the call from a residential lot (since they can't make phone calls from community lots). Choose "Services," then "Matchmaking services." The matchmaker will arrive within 30 minutes (of game time).
  
  

Matchmaker Services

• The Matchmaker looks like a stereotypical gypsy with a long red skirt, white peasant top and orange bandana. She carries a crystal ball. Pay her to set up a blind date for your Sim with a random Sim. The more money she is paid, the better the chemistry will be between the Sims. The Matchmaker also sells love potions and cures for Vampirism.
  
  

Cost of the Potion

• Love Potion #8.5 costs 350 simoleans, the currency used in the game. It will take a lowly paid Sim two to five days of work to earn enough to buy one potion. The potion is much more expensive than some of the other potions. The Vampirism, Lycanthropy and Witchiness cures all sell for 60 simoleans each.
  
  

Rules and Effects

• You can buy as many love potions as your Sim can afford, either in single doses or in bundles of three, five or 10 each. Each purchased potion gets transferred to the Sim's inventory. To use the potion, click the Sim and choose "Drink Love Potion." The potion will temporarily boost the Sim's chemistry score by one or two bolts, and it lasts for about two hours of game time. Only one potion can be used at a time.
