A relic is an item, usually of great value, that can be found in a tomb in The Sims 3: World Adventures and The Sims 4: Jungle Adventure. In The Sims 3: Pets for console, relics are found at random by digging.

The Sims 3: World Adventures

Sometimes Sims can find additional relics in tombs after mourning at a tombstone. Relics can also be bought and sold from the Relic Merchant in each exotic location. A relic can be "analyzed" to determine its age and worth.

After a relic is collected, the Sim can sell it, however, analyzing its exact worth may yield greater reward. Relics may be contemporary, old, antique, or ancient. Contemporary relics are worth less than originally estimated. Old relics are worth about the same amount. Antique and ancient relics, on the other hand, are worth more than expected. There is also a Lifetime wish related to relics called Private Museum. In order to complete it, you need to have a Relic Collection on your home lot worth §20,000. It's useful to analyze all the relics in order to complete it.

There are 9 known Relic Collections. Chinese vases, Dangerous creatures, Dropa stones, Zodiac animals, Canopic jars, Gold figurines, Egyptian tombs, Chinese tombs and French tombs.

Sims and dogs can collect relics by digging. When digging, they have a random chance of obtaining a relic. Once a relic has been obtained, it will be donated to the museum, where it can be viewed on a display case. Copies will also appear in Build/Buy mode under "Relics," where they can be placed on a lot an unlimited number of times. They are organized into three categories: cat and dog, bird, and miscellaneous relics.

There are 20 relics to discover. Completing a set rewards the player with an achievement and a special moodlet once all items in the collection are placed in a room.

Cat and Dog Relics

Bird Relics

Octo Avis Second is obtained while digging at Seastone Terrace during the beginning of The Pirate Treasure.

	Name	Description
	Octo Avis First	The first attempt of the great and eccentric artist, Otto Shoals. It was discarded for being "too green".
	Octo Avis Second	This represents Otto's second attempt at the bird sculpture; unfortunately, it was discarded for having too many spots.
	Octo Avis Third	Otto Shoals abandoned his third attempt after dropping it on his foot. He held a grudge against it (the statue, not his foot) for the rest of his days.
	Octo Avis Fourth	On the fourth try, Otto was pleased with his work until he noticed a tiny blemish on the beak. That would never do!
	Octo Avis Fifth	Little is known of Otto's fifth bird carving. It is considered the best of the series; no one knows why Otto considered it unworthy and continued on his quest for avian perfection.
	Octo Avis Sixth	The sixth attempt was immaculate, until Otto stepped on a crack. With that, the sculpture was deemed to be bad luck.
	Octo Avis Seven	Otto was pleased with his seventh endeavor at the statue, as it was perfect in all ways: It had a lovely aesthetic and it was useful as a doorstop.
	Octo Avis Final	This carving was Otto's last; it is said Otto made Death himself wait until he was finished with the bird.
