The Sims 3 Supernatural expansion pack is filled with a ton of new fun content. No longer do you simply chose between being a male or female, young or old. Now your Sims 3 world gets rocked by the introduction of witches, vampires, werewolves, fairies and random attacking zombies. Be sure to follow the phases of the moon, because when the full moon comes out, so do all the "supernaturals".*** Please Note, that this is an expansion pack for the main game. You will need to have the The Sims 3 game installed on your computer first to play this, since this is an add-on for the main game. ***Creating your sims:Your Create a Sim page now has new added options. A limitless color pallet has been added for skin tone options. Now your sims can be bright pink, pale blue, vivid green or even spray-on-tan orange. What ever skin color you want, now your sims can have it. But that's just the beginning. For those looking forward to the sim fairies, you can customize the wings as well. There is an array of wing types for you to choose from, and even more color options. The fairies wing colors also have an addition feature of how they sparkle depending on their color. Lighter colors glitter like a sparkler, with a memorizing brilliance which far exceeded my expectations. Darker color wings sparkle with black accents, giving your sim fairy a darker, more "evil" appearance. When creating a werewolf, there is a new button where you can see what it looks like both as a human and transformed.Once you've chosen your sims "supernatural" type, then it's on to the new cloths, hair and makeup. The new content in these areas is really nice. There are some great hair styles for both genders and they've finally added some really neat, unique clothing in bright colors. It's not just clothing for your supernaturals, but for your human sims as well. There are makeup styles added to make your witches ugly and your vampires pale and gaunt. Lots of new content to brows through and customize your sims in a whole new way.After finishing with your sims looks, you'll find new selections available in the traits and lifetime wishes. Now your sims will be working towards new life goals like "Magic Makeover" and "Leader of the Pack", while sporting new traits like Gatherer and Supernatural Fan. You'll find in every area of customizing your sims, there's something new to try out.Playing the game:The first time you play, the game will give you an option to place the new lots that came with this pack, if you're playing a previously made town. There is a new town included in this pack called Moonlight Falls, which already has the new lots. These lots are the Elixir Consignment Store, a shop where you can buy elixirs and brand new items that you can also collect, and the Supernatural Hangout, a lounge with new games for your sims that supernaturals tend to flock to. After placing the new lots or beginning in the new town, you'll then find that next to your sims photo and their needs bars, there is also now the status of the current phase of the moon. You can change how often the moon is full in your Sims 3 options menu. When the moon is full, all the lights everywhere glow green, and the supernaturals come out. Zombie sims will sneak up on you and try and chew on you for a bit. Fortunately, they are fairly easy to outrun. Kids can now check under their beds for monsters....and sometimes they find them!While you're out at community lots like the Supernatural Hangout, you'll find new items like the Moondia Horoscope which can tell your future, and the Magic Mirror, that you can have a chat with, or even ask it to give you a brand new kind of makeover. Spooky pictures hang on the walls and the new fun games like Smack a Gnome are there to play. The skeleton maid Bonehilda is back, and ready to emerge from her coffin to clean your sims home. You can travel between locations with a teleporting phone booth looking object called the LLAMA, or buy yourself a flying broom to travel on. There are even new kinds of music to play from radios, like the Dark Wave station and you'll find a huge array of new interactions available for your sims to socialize with. There's even a bee hive to collect honey from and a jelly bean bush to eat candies off of.Vampires can't stay outside in the sun for too long without problems. They can spend a few sim hours outside, but will eventually begin to smolder a bit from the sunlight burning them, then eventually they pass out. If they stay exposed to the light, they eventually die. They have a thirst bar instead of a hunger bar, and have to spend a decent amount of time trying to track down dinner. Fortunately, the refrigerators now come equipped with food to satisfy the supernaturals needs. Vampires can also offer to turn other sims into vampires, as well as using them as a snack. Fairies fly long distances instead of walking. They have a fairy dust bar in their needs section that tells how much fairy dust they have on hand. They can give their dust to other sims who ask for it and they can play tricks on sims and turn into tiny little flying balls of light, looking like large fireflies. There are fairy houses, about the size of kids toy doll houses that they can rest and entertain in. You can turn your sim into a werewolf on command, and work on getting other werewolves into your pack. Witches can pull out their magic wand and play with magic, learning new spells and upgrading to new wands with better spell accuracy. Your witches magic powder and your fairies dust can deplete as you use them, but with each full moon, they refill.There are so many new things to explore and new items to try out, it could take months to discover and complete everything. This expansion pack is definitely worth getting. One of the best expansion packs in the past was the old Makin' Magic pack from the original Sims, and the Sims 3 Supernatural pack has certainly done its predecessor justice.

I absolutely LOVE this expansion pack. I was practically stalking the mailman waiting for my Saturday delivery. I purchased the Sims3 and most of the expansion packs/stuff packs on sale, but I wanted this one as soon as I saw it advertised. I created a vampire sim and went to the graveyard at night. The zombies, werewolves, vampires and fairies showed up. Haven't seen a witch yet. Cannot wait to explore all of the lots and venues. I love the new content added such as the additional vampire slumber altar, jelly bean tree, Bonehilda (the live in skeletal maid) and the magic mirror.Vampires can become immortal, which is a great feature. Ghosts are much improved. How the sims "dies" affects the appearance of their ghost: drowning victims appear as cool blue spirits, starvation victims return as little purple spirits, electrocution victims have coursing currents and of course sims dying of old age return as ghostly white phantoms. These are just a few.The zombies and wolves are more realistic than in the Sims2 as they climb out of the ground. I've seen several sims flying around town on brooms, which is really cool. Sims can travel around town via the LLAMA system free of charge, which is similar to subway system.I am excited for the Seasons expansion pack. But until then I have a lot to keep me busy!! I've also purchased the Official Game Guide, but I have not had a chance to browse through it. Looks very helpful.

I really love this EP. If you love playing Sims 3, you will love this EP. If you love supernatural things, then you'll love the sims 3 and this EP. The witches, werewolves, and fairies are all really cool and really well done. Unlike in Sims 2, you have a lot more control over how your supernatural creature will look, traits, and interactions. Harry Potter fans will be happy to see that the witches are VERY much like Harry Potter witches and wizards. The fairies are a bit link Tinkerbell, but there are a lot of new interactions for them. The werewolves seem very realistic, and you can customize their wolf form. I wish you could make them an actual wolf, but alas not. Even if you have late night, there are additions to vampires. I thought the improvements might be lame and not worth it, but I'm excited about the new vampire interactions. All in all, the supernatural content of this game is really great.What I really wanted to say, though, is that even if you aren't a huge supernatural creature fan, this is still a good EP to get. There are lots of new objects that aren't supernatural related. For instances, there's a rocking chair you can finally rock your baby or toddler in! There are games like whack-a-gnome and a claw arcade style game. There's a miniature train set! There's finally a collection case for insects. There's a new collections system that makes it really easy to see what you're missing. There are tons of new harvestables for gardeners and new cooking recipies. This EP just adds a lot to overall gameplay.The new world, Moonlight Falls, is 'okay' in my books. The mountains backdrop and small town feel are nice. They did a good job of making sure that all of your other EP content is also installed in this world. A few changes to the bars, and they're just like nightlife bars. The Ambitions lots install in good places. There are tons of cute references to pop culture like "La Shove Beach" or 3 witch sisters living in a Victorian house together. I'm a bit disappointed in the appearance of the sims, though. Some world have better premades than this one, but it's still pretty good overall. I still prefer Sunset Valley and Hidden Springs, but this world is a decent one.All in all, this is a great EP to purchase. Sims fans should get tons of play time out of this.
