Seeing the Sims 3 World

When Sims 3 World Adventures was first told, it blew many players away. Many of us were content with the fact that we'd travel about the neighbourhood and we'd see our sims live, interacting with other sims. Now we were on the point of being given the chance to travel to Egypt, China and France to see how sims live over there. My concern was would the sim countries are like the real countries. Lo and behold, they kind of do. Each country has something special, for Egypt, it’s photography. For France, it’s nectar making and for China, it’s Martial Arts.

Your sims arrive at the base camp of each location. There are basic hygiene and food facilities. There is also the valued notice board, where your sims can pick up local ‘jobs ‘ (adventures) in the country and they will be rewarded by the locals. There's also a special merchant in each country which trade ancient coins for useful objects. Do all you can to collect as many ancient coins.

When your sims travel to Egypt, they can see and explore the pyramids looking for treasure. They can also explore the ancient tombs. It’s a bit scary going underground, however it’s fun. They have different challenges to combat which permits further exploring. There are tombs to explore in China and France. Watch out for the mummies (and their curses).

In Egypt, sims can eat traditional foods, such as Falafel and Shawarma. They can shop in the local marketplace where they can pick up relics, buy a camera and learn about photography. Sims can also learn snake charming

In France, your sims can find out about nectar making and buy valuable aged nectar from the famous Champs Les Sims Nectary. Sims can enjoy native dishes, such as Bouillabaisse, Cheese plates, Crepes and Frogs Legs.

In China sims can visit the world renown Phoenix martial arts academy, where they can train to become to the absolute best. They can enjoy eating and making fortune cookies and also native dishes such as stir-fry and egg rolls.

As you can see this expansion pack is packed to brim and overflowing. Learn more here.
