The Sims 3: Seasons (PC) - Origin Key - GLOBAL

The Sims 3: Seasons is an expansion pack to the life simulation video game, The Sims 3, that was developed by Maxis Redwood Shores and published in 2009 by Electronic Arts. It was released in 2012 and it is the eighth big expansion pack, this time focusing on features that revolve around the seasonal changes. As such it introduces not only the four distinctive seasons but also several new season-related events and activities for your Sim to participate in.

Story

The expansion pack, just as the base game, does not feature a story. The Sims 3 is a sandbox game and it allows you to craft your own stories as you control your families. The expansion pack simply throws more possibilities into the mix for you to try.

Gameplay

The Sims 3 Seasons Expansion Pack doesn’t alter the core gameplay in a significant way, but it adds a lot of new activities and certain mechanics that indeed make the game more fun and unpredictable at the same time.

The most important addition are the titular seasons that cycle automatically over time. Each season brings some season-exclusive content, including, but not limited to, festivals and holidays.

Among other noteworthy features, there are also new weather conditions, such as rain and snow, and they impact the life of your Sim, who now can get sick, freeze, or even get struck by lightning, for example. From now on you can also build igloos and snowmen during winter, make a pile of leaves during fall, get a tan during summer, or compete for the title of Spring King and Queen during spring festival, but it’s just a fraction of all the new possibilities brought by the expansion, and it’s up to you to discover them all.

Reception

The Sims 3 Seasons was warmly welcomed by the community. Reviewers agreed that it significantly expanded the base game by adding tons of new content and interactions waiting to be discovered. Critics believe that the amount of new gameplay elements will keep you busy for long hours to come.

Key features:

• Participate in seasonal festivals and celebrate seasonal holidays
• Dress according to the weather to prevent overheating and getting cold
• Explore new traits, skills, lifetime rewards, and build objects
