Befriend or antagonise other vampires as you learn more lore. Sims can be created as or turned into vampires, and from there, you can simplify or dramatise their dark form and make them as merciful or merciless as desired when they’re thirsty. Vampires are a media classic, yet this pack still manages to put a somewhat fresh spin on them. If you don’t like being limited to mundane gameplay, I’ve got good news: there are two other types of occult Sims in addition to the two mentioned previously. Options include, but are not limited to, ravens, Sixam owls, dragons, phoenixes, and snub-nosed leaf bats. ![]() You can choose from eleven different familiars, although as far as the community is aware, you can have as many as you want. ![]() You can focus on one or dabble in all four. There are three kinds of magic - practical, mischief, and untamed - and alchemy. Whether you make them in the character creator to start off your game or your Sim stumbles through the Glimmerbrook portal and ends up with magical abilities before dinner, they’re so much fun to play with. Realm of Magic adds another type of occult Sim to the game: spellcasters. ![]() Although magic is the only similarity between Harry Potter and this Sims pack, and a faint one at that, it’s a good way to get peoples’ attention. To the Sim players that are still salty they never got their Hogwarts letter, this pack is for you. There are also new careers, such as divers, fishermen, and conservationists the first two are rather self-explanatory, and the last allows your Sims to explore and preserve the environment, another focal part of this newer pack. There’s a heavy focus on community, as demonstrated through the people of the new island world, Sulani. If you like otherworldly gameplay, Island Living introduces mermaids to the game, and you can make them look as innocent or as vicious as you like. Though many players complain that this pack isn’t as fleshed out as it could be, I fully believe that it’s great and has something for everyone to enjoy. You also have the opportunity to open a vet clinic, no experience needed from you or your Sim, and help distressed pet parents, whose babies have come down with silly illnesses like Winterfest fever. You can dress cats and dogs alike with collars, hats, shirts, even dresses and costumes. Each pet gets their own set of three traits, which determines whether they’re affectionate or distant, obedient or mischievous, smart or…not so much. Whether your Sim adopts a pet or you make one (or five) specifically for your household, these buddies are so much fun to play with. There are dozens upon dozens of breeds of both cats and dogs to choose from, even a couple of wildcard options such as a fox and a raccoon. If you are, though, you’re in for a treat. If you aren’t much of a pet person, this likely won’t appeal to you. So if you want to purchase something to add to the base game - though it’s still fun and versatile on its own - without breaking the bank, consider this list of my top ten packs! Although there are frequent sales for all platforms, there are also over thirty packs to choose from, and the total definitely adds up. ![]() There are stuff packs, game packs, and expansion packs - the first are $10 each, the second $20 each, and the last $40 each, in US dollars. The focus today is on The Sims 4, which has three pack tiers, and each one adds something new - the larger the pack, the more content it brings to the table. Each main game in the franchise has additional content available for purchase, called packs. Each game stands alone, each full of infinite possibilities for any style of gameplay.īut wait, there’s more. Whether you’ve played since The Sims 1, only dabbled in the Freeplay app, or discovered The Sims 4 through YouTube last week, there’s nothing stopping you no need to play through the series to understand what’s happening. The newest significant addition to the franchise is The Sims 4, released on PC and Mac in 2014, then on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in 2017. You can make their lives as mundane or as messy as you desire, and really, you can do anything you want. Each instalment has gained more traction, and there have been several other games, such as The Sims Medieval and The Sims Freeplay.įor those unfamiliar, The Sims is a life simulation game that allows you to create a character and a life for them, and you essentially play god. Ever since the first titular game released in 2000, it’s been wildly popular. The Sims is a franchise that needs no introduction.
