The Sims Makin' Magic is beautiful!

I've been playing The Sims Makin' Magic lately and I remembered all the great things it came with. I think an expansion pack should be complex and add a lot of gameplay!

    I remember Makin Magic to be the best expansion ever over all sim games. Any magic related expansion that came in later sims games, have been a hollow shell of what this expansion was. Masterpiece. I had soooo much fun playing this.


    100% agree with this. I was only young when the expansion pack came out but it's definitely been my favourite. Bonehilda (I was pleased to discover last night that Bonehilda has made a come back in the Paranormal pack), I remember her from there and the duelling grounds. There's so many aspects of it that they could've put into RoM but just didn't bother which as a shame.
  • Makin Magic was my favorite (and still is) Sims expansion. I love all the carnival-esque things that were in this pack, hopefully, one day they will bring them back. I remember being so excited for this pack when it came out, and it did not disappoint.
  • I finally got The Sims to work in Windows 10, what a hassle, thanks Microsoft for all the trouble you caused me, lol. I have been enjoying the game again especially sending my Sims to Magic Town. This time I intend to get enough magic coins (no cheats) to buy a home there, but it might take years since my Sims aren't very good at earning very many coins. I keep spending them on spells. :D
  • It is. The art and sound design, the gameplay and whole concept is great. It feels like the most cohesive and inspired magic pack they ever made. I love that casting spells isn't simply levelling up a skill, and you actually need to work hard to find the ingredients and you only have a limited number of uses for your spells.

    I LOVE the carnival-themed objects:

    The magic duel mini-game is really fun too:

    The best way is to max logic skill (don't get a real job, just chess all day). Then use large performance stage with the mummy over and over again when in a great mood. You should get around 300+ magicoins in a trip before your mood is too low.
  • Makin' Magic was the best Sims ever. I still think about it to this day, and sometimes go back and play it. There's just something about it, although it may ne nostalgia too.
  • This brings back so many wonderful memories. Sims 1 as a whole was a big part of my life and I am nearing 40!
