In short, it really doesn't seem worth the extra 1,900 SimPoints. The increase it gives to your "fun" stat is slow, and the moodlet you get from riding the rollercoaster hardly boosts your overall mood at all and lasts for only two hours. The worst part of it is that whilst it looks fun, it's impact on gameplay is minimal. It was always clear that it was going to quite a frivolous affair, resulting in something more silly than realistic. The re-introduction of rollercoasters into the game, similar to those that appeared in The Sims: Making Magic, was something that many looked forward to. What really lets the bundle down is the Boardwalk Venue. Alternatively you can dive straight into the Capps' household - a The Sims 2 family who see their story get fleshed out a bit more in this world. If you're starting from scratch with a family, whilst in-keeping with the world's style the pre-built starter homes aren't exactly roomy or space efficient and the bigger homes cost a lot! This mean's you'll really have to work to afford that modernist mansion of your dreams. But the trade-off is a beautiful motor which you can cruise around and even Woo Hoo in: a feature much missed from The Sims 2. Namley, it doesn't raise your handiness skill as quickly as other ways, and working on the car zaps a lot of your Sim's energy. Notably, it's incredibly refreshing to see premium content - the fixer-upper car - not being over-powered like other items that have been available in previous add-on packs. The real charm, however, is in the nuance of indirect gameplay balancing within this world. In fact, we'd go as far to say that this is an add-on aimed mostly at builders, given the power you now have to build within this genre - especially if you already own the Bauhaus window pack. You really can create your own vintage haven without having to risk the instability of custom content.

One of the best things about this is the whole range of building ornaments and toppers that player can now use, not to mention the array of period garments.

Even if it doesn't do anything more than the base game and whatever expansion packs you've got allows you to, it's still an absolute delight to play in. They've managed to capture a real sense of the art deco style-drawing from 1920s-1930s Miami, New York, and Chicago-to make a town that's really lush. Yes, it's a shame that there aren't any new traits, careers/professions, or lifetime wishes that come with the content, but that has always been the remit of expansion packs, not worlds.īut it's great to see Maxis really go to town on this one. Roaring Heights looks amazing: that's all its meant to do.
