You ready for the twenty-seventh pack for The Sims 4?

情態副詞

The Sims 4: StrangerVille, which seriously is addon pack number twenty-seven.

As far as game packs go though, it’s only

the seventh one of those thus far, so y’know.

And personally, as a concept I find StrangerVille immediately compelling.

“Solve the mystery of a desert town that holds a deep, dark secret” is the headlining

teaser for this one, inviting comparisons to the vast number of conspiracy-laden TV

shows and movies that revolve around strange little towns.

But another reason for its initial appeal is that it brings to mind Strangetown, a neighborhood

Strangetown was a remote desert locale prominently featuring a crashed UFO and a variety of quirky

citizens, most notably a memory-wiped Bella Goth.

Of course, with a name so similar to Strangetown and the odd occurrences shown off in the trailers,

I was eager to see the sights of StrangerVille.

It all begins with the town of StrangerVille itself, a small desert community with a clear

There’s an airstrip just outside of town and a not-so-secret secret lab tucked away

And while it’s a weird enough spot to visit on its own, to really get the most out of

StrangerVille you’ll want to equip yourself with the new StrangerVille Mystery aspiration.

This enables a special set of interactions and activities throughout town, with an end

goal of uncovering the local secrets that the authorities are clearly hiding.

And unlike most Sims 4 things, this is a rather linear storyline with a defined beginning,

So lemme go ahead and say that I won’t be spoiling the story in this review, at least not yet.

I’ll have a section at the very end where we’ll bust the mystery wide open, but I’ll

For now though, what I’ll say is that the StrangerVille aspiration takes you on a 12-step

journey to enlightenment, a sort of rehabilitation program for the paranoid conspiracist.

When you begin your journey it’s simply about talking to local sims, getting their

take on the town and hoping that someone, anyone shares some sliver of information.

Whether it be military personnel, scientific researchers, or full-blown conspiracy theorists,

nearly everyone will have something to say regarding the town’s weirdness.

And well, it won’t be long until you’re greeted by some of the more... affected inhabitants.

Or rather, infected, because these folks ain’t right.

Try to talk with a possessed sim and their response comes in

the form of bizarre movements and barely coherent statements

many of which refer to a “mother” of some kind.

You can also try slapping them out of it to actually talk to them for a bit, but they

soon turn back and you’re not gonna get much of these folks regardless.

Same goes for the Sims In Black that tend to show up once you start poking your nose

in places it doesn’t need to be, responding only that “there’s nothing to see here, move along.”

And of course, it’s an open secret that the town is littered with these bizarre glowing

purple plants, all of which appear to be growing at an alarming rate.

Another early clue to the strangeness of StrangerVille is the Curio Shop: a small shack run by a

local weirdo, dedicated to cataloguing the unexplained activity of not only StrangerVille,

Heh, and you know, of all the game universes that would have dedicated conspiracists, The

It’s a series full of aliens, ghosts, lake monsters, fairies, zombies, time travel, vampires,

A world like The Sims should be full of folks Jonesing for a chance to rant about massive

government cover-ups and secret societies.

Anyway, it won’t be long till you’re directed towards The Lab north of the military base,

which appears to have been hastily evacuated.

Files, boxes of paperwork, and computers are strewn all over the place,

Naturally, the first step is to scrounge up enough of it to form a dossier of evidence.

You’ll likely need to look beyond the facility though, because there’s a large sealed door

blocking your path and not enough evidence was left out in the open.

So it’s back to StrangerVille to bug sims until they give up something juicy.

And also to bug sims until they give up something juicy, using electronic bugs surreptitiously

Using the new listening station you can eavesdrop on their conversations to record evidence

You can also hit up the local library and sift through the archives of books dedicated

Eventually, you’ll accumulate the evidence required to win over access to a key card.

And that card can be used to waltz deep into the bowels of The Lab, the answers you seek

Yeah okay maybe not, almost forgot Ralph died in a fire.

But yeah, if I say anything more about The Lab it gets into spoiler territory so I’ll

However, we can still talk about StrangerVille’s new career: the military, returning from The

By that I mean, it’s one of those where you can send your sim off to work as usual

to disappear for the day, but they also have the option

to work from home and perform activities directly.

Things like working out, marching around, and sparring with both fellow recruits and

And halfway through the career you’ll be provided a choice between two paths: Officer

and Covert Operator, with the former leading up to your sim becoming a grand marshall,

and the latter setting you on the path to becoming a Sim In Black.

And despite the top secret silliness you’ll be dealing with, the military career can be

played in any neighborhood in the game, it’s not limited to StrangerVille.

Though it certainly fits in the most with the theme of StrangerVille.

As do the new build mode items, including the long-awaited return of laptops.

Yeah, it took nearly five years for laptops to officially be added to The Sims 4 for some reason.

Anyway they’re here now, along with about a hundred other items.

Lots of laboratory and military equipment, plenty of sci-fi strangeness and bizarre tech,

and a nice assortment of grungy DIY items befitting the bunker of a post-apocalyptic
