Story and Gameplay
Like every The Sims game, the story behind the World Adventures
Expansion is whatever you want to make of it, but in this case
within the realm of international travel. And why not, since what
sim doesn't need a vacation. Players choose from environments set
Egypt, France or China, with the possibility of others via
download. Similarly, gameplay follows the same well-worn path
familiar to veteranThe Sims players, and easy to pick up for
those coming to the franchise for the first time. Players create
their sims as they like, customizing everything from physical
characteristics, all the way down to personality traits, habits,
etc. They can mix with other sims, build relationships, start
families and even die. Because this expansion is based around
travel, your sims can also discover rich, new cultures, develop
brand-new skills and abilities and explore and adventure through
realistic environments. New skills related to these destinations
include photography, martial arts, and nectar making (a sim
beverage) among others. As part of of the exotic locales
available, sims can get adventurous and explore the caves and
tombs of Egypt and China. Here they will put their new adventure
related abilities to work as they participate in Indiana Jones
like adventures full of excitement and even danger, including
some not-so friendly mummies and the Grim Reaper. Unique Simlish
