Final Word Fortune Machine

The Final Word Fortune Machine is introduced in The Sims: Makin' Magic. It is a purported fortune-telling machine that can be found in Magic Town, but also purchased for other types of public lots. Once a coin is inserted and the machine is activated, an animatronic gypsy called Mea Fortuna springs to life and delivers her readings to the Sim who uses the machine. Almost all of her fortunes end by asking the Sim to deposit another coin.
Although Mea Fortuna's readings seem bogus, many of them are actually meta-references to the game itself. A few of her fortunes also reveal the the secret recipes for the Magic Tart and Magic Nectar, both of which cannot be found listed in the Recipe Book.
All of her readings are delivered through dialogue boxes. Her fortunes have no gameplay effect.
