The Sims 4: Enchanted By Nature sees the return of the most adorable of the occults, fairies. These pin-sized precious creatures can be found in the brand-new world of Innisgreen, where magic is in the air.
This mystical expansion also includes new skills, traits, aspirations, and abilities, as well as the regular selection of clothing, furniture and decor. Everything has been wrapped up together and sprinkled with a little pixie dust.
10A New World
Innisgreen
Innisgreen is a stunning new worldwhich has three different neighborhoods. The Coast of Adhmor is a seaside area which includes vibrant houses, a beautiful museum, and a large gnome statue for reasons unknown. Sprucederry Grove is an area awash with nature and includes a wading pond, gardens, and the obligatory bar. Lastly, Everdew is where the magic really comes to life and is home to the Mossveil Fairy Hub.
Each area is unique, and they all hold a number of secrets, including fairy houses, crafting areas, stores you can buy items from, and even a secret teleportation system. Say hello to fairy life and goodbye to having to level your handiness skill to get to the Forgotten Grotto.
9Become A Fairy
New Skills And Abilities
you may, of course, become a fairy and enjoy a new magical and nature-focused lifestyle. There’s a skill tree which allows you to become a harmonious fairy, helping others and maintaining nature’s delicate balance, or a discordant fairy, sowing only chaos. There’s also a third neutral skill path, and you can pick and mix from across the three trees, so you can fully customize your fairy abilities.
Fairies also live in Everdew freely, and you’ll encounter them a lot in this area. Even if you don’t embrace the fairy lifestyle, you’re able to still gain access to a little of their fairy dust and use it to enchant plants, add some life to your garden gnomes and some other unique interaction I don’t want to spoil!
8Pick Up Ailments
Sims Can Get Sick
Sickness has spread and Sims can now pick up one of eight minor ailments which will give them some form of weird behavior for a couple of days, or until the ailment is cured. Fairies can give ailments to others through certain skills, they can be contracted randomly, and they can be manipulated with apothecary medicines as well.
These aren’t your average boring sicknesses, so expect some chaos. Generally, there will be a positive and negative to each ailment, so sometimes they can be useful. For example, one ailment leaves you with such a strong creative itch that you cannot sleep, only craft. Those of you who are also neurodiverse (like me, hi) will quickly identify it as the game version of being in hyper-focus mode. Nothing else matters but the task ahead. Must. Make. Candles.
7Study Apothecary And Naturopathy
Learn The Apothecary Skill And Become A Naturopath
Plants have a new use now as you can use them for curing ailments. You cancreate a range of medicines using the new apothecary skill. These will cure all eight ailments Sims can get. You can also make potions to fulfill your needs and do a few other fun things, like boost a Sim’s luck.
The naturopathy career helps you make use of your love of nature and apothecary skills to pursue a career in healing and natural cures. you’re able to influence moods, cure ailments and do a few other neat things to help Sims live in harmony with nature.
6Gain The Natural Living Skill
Live On The Land, Literally
Withthe new natural living skillyou can literally live on the land. This is an extension of the free-roaming abilities werewolves have and allows you to pee in bushes which you’re able to summon (how cool is that? Instant pee privacy) You can also sleep on the floor, forage for food, meditate to boost fun, bathe in any kind of water, and essentially meet all your needs in the world.
Rags to Riches challenges just got a whole lot easier since all this has no cost.
Needs will refill slowly to begin with, but the more you embrace nature and build the skill, the more able you’ll be to get your needs up outside as quickly as others would in a home. This is next level off-the-grid living, especially since you may forage for valuables, food, and apothecary ingredients. Combine this with the apothecary table in the Everdew neighborhood and you have a no cost revenue stream.
5Three New Traits
Plant Lover, Mystical, Disruptive
There arethree new traits in this pack.Plant lovers will be able to interact in new ways with plants in their home and garden. Just be aware that they become like friends, so your Sim will be sad if they don’t touch base for a while. Mystical Sims will interact in new ways with the magic in the area and are very in tune with the environment. They also befriend occults quickly and learn new skills fast. Finally, disruptive Sims will seek to unbalance the harmony in the area.
The traits work well with fairies in particular, but are fairly flexible. Anyone living in Innisgreen will get more out of being mystical, while plant lovers will benefit anywhere they have plants. Disruptive is a great addition to Sims who want to watch the world burn, but from a safe deniable distance.
4Two New Aspirations
Elixir Enthusiast And Fairy
Elixir Enthusiasts will be able to complete their aspiration by crafting elixirs and cures for others. This is fairly straightforward and works well with anyone pursuing the new apothecary skill or naturopath career. You should easily be able to get a nice chunk of points for doing this.
Likewise, fairies will be able to get through the fairy aspiration with ease for a few cheeky reward points. It’s not complicated, but both will help walk you through a few features of the pack.
3New Gardening And Houseplant Options
Get Greener Thumbs
Gardening has now come indoors. There are a handful of new pots and also a number of new houseplants. These then become indoor plants which need love and care, just like outdoor ones.
Houseplants included in this new system will require care and attention. You’ll be able to take care of them using a more limited menu than outdoor plants, which combines the tasks of watering and pruning etc into ‘take care of houseplants.’ Neglected plants will die.
2New Clothing Options
Become A Fashionable Fairy
Nature is a heavy theme for this pack. A lot of staples included, such as t-shirts, dresses, jeans, shirts, and hoodies, have floral prints, as well as green, brown and other earth tones. They also have an outdoor feel in both the materials and designs of the items. However, this is only half of the influence. The other half of the pack is fairy and mystical-influenced. Traditional petal dresses, outfits made of leaves and animal skins, and the odd ethereal look. If you’ve seen it on a Disney fairy, it’s probably here in some form.
There are also full customization options for fairy wings, as well as some unique new glowing tattoos. Fae can also access horns and hooves along with a new range of glowing eyes and unique skin tones.
1New Furniture And Decor
Live Your Best Fairycore Life
Prepare for fairycore to dominate. Quaint little moss-covered windows, ornate wooden archways, earth and pebbles for both floors and walls. Think fairy house meets hobbithole and you’ve nailed the exterior aesthetic.
Internally, the vibes are of a young child with a fairy obsession. Wallpaper with an enchanted forest, furniture made of ornate and colorful woods, lots of floral additions, and an edge of funky color. Everything combines well with the base game to make houses with natural vibes all the way up to vibrant riots of color and magic.
