The Sims 4allows players to decorate their homes with beautiful paintings and artwork they’ve created by completing the painting skill. Whilethe traditional painting skillrequires players to buy canvases to create masterpieces, Microscope Prints tasks players with turning scientific samples into abstract masterpieces.
The goal is to collect 12 Microscope Prints to decorate your home with. Each of the prints features various samples Sims have collected, including fossils, plants, and crystals. The prints allow Sim scientists to commemorate their greatest collections while giving their homes a scientific makeover. They can also sell the prints to earn extra money and become successful.

How to Collect All the Microscope Prints
To collect all Microscope Prints, players must first purchase a microscope fromThe Sims 4’s Buy Mode. This costs $1,630, which is expensive but worthwhile if you sell your prints after creating them. Sims who work as scientists can forgo buying the microscope by using the one available at work. However, traveling back and forth from work to use the microscope makes the entire print-collecting process more time-consuming. It’s easy to collect and analyze prints from home, which is why we recommend purchasing one.
Once you have the microscope, set it on Focused to gain the Logic Skill quickly. This will allow you to analyze samples and create prints. Note that players must reach certain levels to analyze and produce different samples. For instance, you must be at Level 2 to analyze plant samples, Level 5 to analyze fossil samples, and Level 8 to analyze crystal samples.

There’s a total of 12 Microscope Prints to collect, and they include:
After gaining the Logic Skill, start by collecting samples from nearby objects in your home. For instance, you can plant a garden in your backyard and harvest the plants and seeds to analyze on your microscope. You can also sell the extra harvest toearn money without using cheats. To analyze the plant sample, head to the microscope and click the associated command to start the process. Once complete, a notification will pop up on your screen, letting you know a Microscope Print has been added to your inventory. You can hang this print anywhere in your house. If you want to collect crystal samples, mine shiny rocks found in the neighborhood.
