Introduction: 

Sul Sul! Today I am going to be giving my opinion on the Sims 4 packs, including expansion packs, game packs and stuff packs. I will have my top three for each of which I think are the best overall. This will give you an overview of what each pack has to offer, including CAS, Building objects, and Game play.

Top 3 Stuff Packs: 

3. Romantic Garden – This stuff pack holds all the Victorian inspired garden essentials for your Sims buildings. Including romantic garden accessories such as the wishing well, hedges, bushes, eccentric doors and gates, and beautiful flowers. The stuff pack also comes with a few hairstyles and clothing.

2. Laundry Day – I loved this pack when I got it, but it is a real chore to keep up with all the dirty laundry your Sim creates. You don’t notice how often your Sim changes clothes until you have this pack. And although it is a cool game play experience for maybe one or two Sims, it is really challenging. I put this pack as number two because I use the CAS items and building objects almost like base game items. They can be used for anything and add a realistic aspect to your Sims game play.

1. Paranormal – This is by far the best stuff pack as it includes various game play activities, interesting building materials, and cool CAS items. Since I got this pack, I’ve used the building objects it has such as the coffee tables, chairs, rugs, and the beautiful chimney as  a way to bring a New Orleans style to my Sim’s household. The CAS items are also pretty good as well as it has new hairstyles and pretty clothing, bringing that authentic rugged style off the streets of New Orleans. The game play includes communing with the ghosts and traveling to haunted houses. I haven’t’ gotten to play the game play as of yet, but through reviews, it seems exciting and interesting.

Top 3 Game Packs: 

3. Dine Out – Do you want your Sim to have their own restaurant- well this is the pack for you. This game pack is specifically geared towards kitchen accessories/building objects, and running your own restaurant. You can earn points and hire new people, upgrade, and gain all five stars when starting your own restaurant. This pack has some formal wear for your Sims, but mostly has kitchen objects such as a salad station, ovens, and fridges.

2. Vampires – You can now play Twilight in the Sims. With this game pack you can have another occult Sim rather than the overused Alien or opposable Mermaid. This allows you to become a Vampire and even raise a Vampire family. And, yes- you can suck people’s blood, when you do that you gain energy and points. With points you can travel up the Vampire ladder towards the ultimate Grand Master Vampire, but as you gain more powers, you have to take on weaknesses. This pack includes a variety of CAS items to create a distinguished vampire and lots of cool furniture. It also comes with the world: Forgotten Hollow.

1. Parenthood – This is by far the best Game Pack in the Sims 4- at least so far. With this popular pack, you can handle kids more easily than before. You earn a new parent skill called parenting and pick from new aspirations. This pack has a wide variety of CAS items, building materials, and lots and lots of game play. I will forever use this pack because it makes taking care of kids easier.

Top 3 Expansion Packs: 

3. City Living – If you ever wanted to live in an Apartment – this pack is definitely for you. I feel like city living is a core necessity for playing the Sims 4. This is because it gives you a ton of game play objectives when living in the city, including festivals such as Geekcon, Humor and Hijinks, Romance Festival, and Spice Festival. This Expansion Pack adds a whole new world with one of the best lots in the game. The world is split up into different districts like the Fashion District and the Arts Quarter to really put the definition on your Sims characteristics. The pack includes a variety of CAS items and a bunch of interesting building objects to play with.

2. Cottage Living – If you want to live in a cottage some day- herding cattle, taming chickens, and having deep conversations with rabbits – I think you need this Expansion Pack. This pack adds everything about gardening, farming, and living a peaceful life. The pack contains tons of game play experiences, a vacation rental, and gardening competitions. You can have chicken coops, lamas, and cows as well. Everything about this pack is so aesthetically pleasing- especially if you like to live like a grandma.

1. Cats and Dogs – This is basically a necessity for your Sims 4 experience. This expansion pack allows you to have different breeds of cats and dogs, and the occasional raccoon or fox. The pack lets you explore the world of Brindleton Bay in which you have viewing distance of the lighthouse on the Bay. With this pack, you can become your own veterinarian and run your own clinic. I use it every time I get on the Sims, and the CAS items and building objects are used every time I build and create a new sim.
