![]() ![]() Looking for a cool new career? You better like being a fortune teller, as it's the only new job here that wasn't included in the original. Of course, this is a Sims game, so there's the expected collection of new items to buy and clothes to wear, but there's little in the ways of actual game content. The major fault with Supernatural is that it doesn't offer much new content at all. The new races are streamlined into the game quite nicely, but when the main draw is the inclusion of out of this world elements, is two really enough? Sure, the Late Night Expansion gave us the options to play as a vampire and World Adventures introduced unplayable mummies, but why not give me more options? Why not let me play as a zombie or a mummy? What's the sense in going over the top, but only slightly? The main draw of The Sims 3: Supernatural is the addition of two new playable races - Werewolves and fairies. ".two new playable races - Werewolves and fairies." At first, it's a neat and novel idea, but after a while, it becomes clear just what Supernatural is, a limited expansion pack that doesn't expand much at all. That's the case with The Sims 3 and its latest expansion pack Supernatural - it takes one of the most novel parts of the formula - the unexplained appearance of ghosts and other unworldly creatures and makes it part of the everyday experience. When that novelty wears off though, the unexpected becomes just the opposite - it becomes ordinary. It's new, it's different, it gives us something to talk about. We've come to expect an endless stream of expansion packs for Sims games, and most of them add a significant amount of content to the experience - Supernatural does not.Īs people, we all love the unexpected. It's a novel idea that's sure to make devoted Sims fans smile.įans of The Sims are going to keep playing The Sims 3 just as much as they used to, but I find it hard to believe that many are going to use the features in Supernatural in their everyday routine. Supernatural takes the established Sims formula and throws in some out of this world races like mummies, fairies and zombies. To be fair, the series has always looked impressive, and the spells are kind of neat at first, but the engine is clearly starting to show its age. No surprise, but Supernatural looks like you'd expect - it looks The Sims. ![]()
