Aliens and alien abduction return in The Sims 3: Seasons. Abduction can occur when a Sim is on the same lot as a UFO, between the hours of 12 am and 3 am. A Sim who has been abducted will have a negative Abducted moodlet for 10 hours. There is a 2% chance a Sim will get abducted at night. An additional +13% chance will be added if the Sim stargazes through a telescope, and an extra +38% chance will be added for each space rock in a Sim's inventory, up to +75%. When an abduction occurs, multi-colored sparkles will appear in the sky.
