I bought 5000 simpoints on sale, and for the last few days I've been trying to decide whether to buy Lunar Lakes. Pro: it's the only world available for simpoints I don't have yet so I kind of want it for completion's sake. Also, I enjoy store worlds in general, I have never regretted buying one.Con: I'm not very interested in playing on the moon.A few minutes ago I clicked on "Make me an offer" and got an offer to buy Lunar Lakes + 3 clothing items for 2008 simpoints, which sounds very good! I have an hour to make up my mind. So, simmers who own Lunar Lakes, can you help me make up my mind? How much have you been using this world? Do you have interesting stories or screenshots to share?

Seems like I might be a bit late, but it's a neat world. I love the new things and the small rabbit holes are great.

@PalmArrow I really like Lunar Lakes and had fun playing an alien world in it. It depends on your playstyle. I may be too late answering this I just realized the time now versus when you posted.

Curious if you bought it or not. I wouldn’t want to miss the world myself, even when I don’t regularly play there. For one because it’s gorgeous and absolutely unique. But also because I like the idea of having a place to play out an alien world if I’d want to (actually I’ve done that: removed the inhabitants, filled the place with aliens and played out an adventure).

I got Lunar Lakes when it was released and didn't use the world for a long time as it didn't appeal to me. Then I tried it again after Into the Future was released and it turns out to be one of my favourite worlds now. So it all depends. I would encourage you to get it and enjoy it. The Tree of Prosperity comes with it too. Place the ToP on the same lot as the Wishing Well from Lucky Palms and you can enjoy visits from the pixies or fireflies over the wishing well most nights.

I'm totally in favor of getting it! That price is such a bargain! The world is well-made, although I haven't played there for a long time. The only thing that bummed me is the lack of bigger and more lots.

Should I buy Lunar Lakes? Help me decide!

Many thanks to everyone who answered! i did end up buying it in the end - I felt I would regret it if I don't. The Tree of Prosperity does sound like something I want to use.

I think I will try out the world as a destination world (with NRAAS Traveler) for a sim in the science or military career first.

I don’t know the ins and outs but I believe you have to be careful with that tree...? If you have or don’t have ITF (I believe it’s connected to that EP)? Found this topic, I completely understand this simmer’s anger.

ETA:
5. Supposedly there was an official EA fix for this stoooopid tree a while back, but it was a fix ONLY for those who'd also installed ITF, the ONLY EP I didn't have!

Means those with that EP installed are safe, but I totally agree how disgraceful that is.
Updated NRaas mods appear to help as well, maybe @igazor knows more.
ETA2:
Sorry for calling you over igazor, you actually reacted in that topic. Appears Errortrap is the necessary mod here.

Ive never had a problem with the Tree of Prosperity. I do have Into The Future installed. But even before i had it the ToP wasn't a problem for me. I only started using mods much later.

I've got it but never played in it. I will one day though, and I think you'd better get while the store is still up and running. You never know when they decide to close things down...
