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!

I realize the OP bought Lunar Lakes already but I heartily recommend this world! I was lurking in this thread and it inspired me to go back into the world and have my alien family live there.

It’s such a pretty town <3

@JoAnne65 , thanks for warning me about the Tree of Prosperity! I don't have Into the Future, but I do use ErrorTrap, so I hope my game will be okay.

I briefly played in LL today just to have a look around, and I'm definitely not sorry I bought it!

I love Lunar Lakes myself but haven't really played in it much other then when I sent my SS there from my Riverview save sometime after she got abducted by aliens the 1st time. I used it in her story in a way that the aliens had abducted her and sent her to this strange planet with giant mushrooms... :p

Beautiful pictures! <3 (and you’re welcome PalmArrow, Errortrap will definitely protect your game)

@lisasc360 LOL, same here, the world is perfect for that. I replaced part of the population by aliens (they were the rich ones, living in the craters) and the other half were the prisoners, the abducted, who lived down below, near the poisonous salt lakes.

@JoAnne65, it sure is perfect for telling alien stories. That sounds like a good story right there that you've done in your game... :)

I've never had the issue either, nor did the OP in the link right away ("Don't ask me why this tree didn't cause me issues before, I do not know"), but when it does hit you, it's a nasty one apparently. And not related to mods, or EA wouldn't have come with some half-baked solution. There are many bugs I never had. That never helped the people who did though ;) When talking about this tree I think it's useful to point out its downsides and that there are solutions.
