Thank you to the EA Game Changers program for giving me an early access code for The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle [which I'll probably refer to as 'Eco Living' for the rest of this blog because we all know that's what it should be called]. Thank you to The Sims for allowing me to take … Continue reading Everything Cinderelli Did Wrong with the Eco Lifestyle Expansion Pack

Sim Together: Saving the Magic Realm

Over the course of a week (or so), lilsimsie, SimGuruRad, DrGluon, SimGuruDoi and SimGuruNinja all contributed to moving the gameplay along, leaving the story … Continue reading Sim Together: Saving the Magic Realm
Isolating in a Small house with Seven Toddlers for the Coronapocalypse
So there I was... living my best Coronapocalypse life, doing what I do best... staying in bed, not wearing pants, and avoiding people in real life so I can talk to different people on the interwebz. I was enjoying having a good excuse to socially isolate and not go to work! Then I HAD to … Continue reading Isolating in a Small house with Seven Toddlers for the Coronapocalypse
What University Means to Me
You might have missed the rumours that University might be the theme of the next Sims 4 expansion pack. This has prompted a flurry of speculation from simmers and lots of people are sharing their hopes and their thoughts. Some people don't understand the appeal of this theme. I saw this video by Carl's The … Continue reading What University Means to Me

Parenthood Blog: Nihil Legacy – Part 2
The next time I played the Nihil's life (and apartment) was still a mess. But Krista woke up in a better mood. She felt less ill than she had at the start of her pregnancy and I caught er autonomously dancing to the stereo while Tre was out busking. She was eating breakfast when she … Continue reading Parenthood Blog: Nihil Legacy – Part 2
Parenthood Blog: Nihil Legacy
The recent additions to The Sims 4 have been making me want to try a legacy style game again. I normally play with ageing off in a rotation, and I'm not very good at sticking to one family for long, but we'll see how it goes. So I had to make my founders. I didn't … Continue reading Parenthood Blog: Nihil Legacy
The Dixon-Phillips Family: Arranged Date
Astor Dixon was pleased with her current situation. Her husband was making steady progress in his political career and impressing all the right people. Her interfering mother-in-law was distracted by various societies and charity organisations that she had taken upon herself to crusade with. And her eldest daughter Anastasia was doing very well in school, … Continue reading The Dixon-Phillips Family: Arranged Date
TS4 Blog: Sanguine in the City
I finally decided to grab the bull by the horns (or should that be bite the bull by the neck?) and give the old bat-brains a whirl. I guess TS2 Nightlife and TS3 Late Night have pre-programmed my brain to think that a city is a good place for vampires to hang out. I mean, … Continue reading TS4 Blog: Sanguine in the City
