There will also be some new ways of making money. World Adventures offers not only puzzle-based gameplay but will also introduce new skills like Photography, Martial Arts, Nectar Making and a slew of new clothes and items. The artifacts you find can be taken back to Sunset Valley and put on display in your home where they will no doubt be admired by all your friends. Or you might need a specific item to be able to continue your quest, or uncover a secret first, which will lead you to the next level of your explorations. You might, for example, need a certain skill to open the door of a tomb, enter and find an artifact before you can open another door. Instead of completing random tasks you have to follow a set, puzzle-based story. These challenges, and the way they have to be played, are something entirely new to The Sims franchise. From there you can mingle with locals, enjoy the wares that local businesses offer or accept challenges from mysterious strangers to find treasures and discover what’s lurking in hidden caves. Obviously the most fun is to be had when you choose the latter. Upon arrival, it is up to you whether to just enjoy a quiet holiday and meet the locals, or to be a little more adventurous. The three destinations are expected to be about the same size as Sunset Valley in the main game, so certainly worth the simoleons you will be spending on the flight there.

You will experience rich culture in Champs Les Sims, venture into ancient tombs in the pyramids of Al Simhara (you can become a Mummy in Al Simhara!) and master martial arts in Shang Simla. Three exotic locations are available for you to travel to, each a parody on existing locations in France, Egypt and China. This time around, your Sims won’t just be taking a laidback holiday as they can also go adventuring, Indiana Jones style! The Sims 3: World Adventures will be released on the 17th of November and sees your Sims travel the world, but not quite in the same way as The Sims: Vacation and The Sims 2: Bon Voyage. The Sims 3 has graced the shelves for barely two months and already Electronic Arts is announcing the first expansion pack.
