how ’bout them sims?
Across the country this, gajillions of gamers are moving into Sunset Valley. Really, I love the idea that many of them are using our guide as a way to make the move not just a bit easier, but also discover many of the secrets that wait around every corner. If you haven’t picked up the guide yet, let me tantalize you with a few choice features. Imagine your friends trying to figure out how to get a promotion at City Hall while you have rocketed to the top of the profession and are pulling in buckets of cash. While other players are wandering from lake to lake, hoping to uncover the best fishing spots, you are poised at Stoney Falls with rod in hand to land a great catch. You have uncovered the best spots to capture valuable Rainbow butterflies while other gamers are combing through wooded areas, looking for flashes of fluttering colors.
In other words, we truly give you the keys to the city.
It was a true pleasure to write this guide. And that’s not just me spouting platitudes — something my friends wish I did more of naturally. One of the best parts of writing guides is the ability to play games early. There are times I really do sit there and think, I can’t believe I get to play this game before everybody else! That was how I felt when poking around Simhenge high in the hills above Sunset Valley, stumbling upon a rare rock for the first time. It was genuine excitement because I knew that my little celebrating was hardly going to be unique. There would soon be many, many players having similar moments of fun discovery across. Maybe it wouldn’t be when they found gold in them thar hills. Maybe it would be the first time they styled a couch in the object catalog so it looked like something they remembered from grandma’s house. Or the first time they noticed a beetle skittered in the bushes behind the warehouse and realized that was something they could collect and decorate their house with. There are going to be a lot of cool “first times” when people play this game — and I’m not just talking about the first session of WooHoo.
Happy Simming, gamers. I look forward to seeing where else this new chapter in the series goes. And I hope I’m there with you along for the ride.
