The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle

Pay attention to your eco-footprint and vote on plans to improve your neighborhood. Take on new traits and live a green-friendly life in a green-energy powered household.

The Sims 4: Eco Lifestyle

Eco Lifestyle is an expansion set for The Sims 4 that focuses on being conscious about the natural environment of your virtual family! Move into a new world of Evergreen Harbor and work together with your neighbors to improve it. Leave a positive eco-footprint to keep the planet healthy and clean. Equip your sims with new traits and give them tools to fulfill them. All this and more is available in this expansion, very positively reviewed by the critics.

The Sims work together for the benefit of the neighborhood

One of the most important new features of Eco Lifestyle is an increased sense of community. The world of Evergreen Harbor is populated with likeminded sims, who care about their local environment. Each week, they can vote on a new Neighborhood Action Plan, which introduces new forms of maintaining a positive influence on the planet. One day it can be a better way of managing waste: another – a motion to go without clothing for a week. What’s important is that your voice matters, so use it for the benefit of your neighborhood.

Keep up the positive eco-footprint

Eco-footprint is another new mechanics introduced in the expansion. Every sim knows that their actions have consequences. That’s why it’s so important to pay attention to our eco-footprint. Divided into three sections, this footprint can significantly influence the world around your sims. By conscious and clean living, they can increase their positive influence on the environment. But wasteful and unecological practices will cause it to drop rapidly, turning your peaceful, green commune into yet another industrial powerhouse.

Stay eco-conscious with new traits and items

While positively influencing the world around you, you mustn’t forget about improving yourself and your personal surroundings. Eco Lifestyle hands you a selection of new traits to use with your sims. They can become a real freegan, finding good food in other sims’ trash or a master of crafts, creating amazing things in the comfort of their house or workshop. The expansion gives you plenty of new items to go with your sims’ traits: candle-making station, hydroponic garden planter, solar panels, and a wind turbine, and a dumpster.

Reception

The Sims 4: Eco Lifestyle was met with positive reviews from the critics, who praised the expansion’s theme, new community action-based mechanics, and the eco-footprint affecting the neighborhood in real-time.
