A new town called Isla Paradiso which is beautifully designed. You can customize your own resort and do so many other fun activities. The EP is beautifully made, the design is nice and very “island fitting”. This expansion has a very original concept to sims which makes it 10x more attractive. Living on an island, owning a resort from which you earn your bread, scuba diving and so much more. If you are not into that, then this expansion is for you. This is more of a realistic adult-y approach to TS3. Very fun and new, making the gameplay less repetitive. Two new skills: Sculpting and Inventing. New professions such as firefighters, ghost hunters, architectural designers, private investigators…etc, along with self-employed professions by using any skill that can be capitalized. No more rabbit holes, you get to follow your sims to work and know what they are doing. There are so many options, not just new professions but also added features to professions that already existed. has to be hands down my favorite thing to do on this EP. This is for those who love making money, want a new job, or want to have a taste of what it would feel like to have a certain job. It is on the realistic side as I have mentioned above which might not be good for some people who are more into fiction/sci-fi/supernatural. Your adult sims can go through a midlife crisis, your young sims can have an imaginary friend which can later on be real by using a potion and so much more for activities for all ages. There are kids, teenagers, high schoolers, old people…etc. The theme is life states and moments and memories that you build along the way. It is more on the subtle side, nothing too extreme so it’s perfect for when you feel like playing a somewhat close to reality game. I’ll just go ahead and mention what’s good and bad about the game so you know what I mean. I personally loved this EP, I definitely enjoyed playing this when I was in the mood for (re)building my life. You will get to build memories through generations (see what I did there?) and much more. If you want to play an EP that is a bit more realistic and indie (if you look at it from a certain lens) then Generations can easily become your favorite. After all, tastes do differ and so do the themes of the expansion packs. If you find yourself interested in one of the expansion packs at the end of the list, then give it a shot. This list breaks down the best expansion packs that we recommend you to (re)play, as well as the least favorites. Some of these packs were great and worth playing and even replaying whileothers weren’t quite the best (at least not for everyone).
