Gameplay for THIS world!

Remember this pic? Concept art for a sims 4 world.

Looks a lot like this little fishing village in Italy, which is actually a HUGE tourist draw.

I've been hoping for a Mediterranean Pack since I saw it all those years ago. Makes me think it would be a great basis for a Mediterranean Lifestyle with a Tourism and Hospitality Pack.

So let's brainstorm. Would you like this world? What type of content would suit this world? What type of things would you like to do there?

Some ideas

Potter's Wheel: Learn the Pottery Skill: craft items, paint them, bake them, sell and decorate.

Hotels
A system we can build and/or manage hotels in any world. No need for destination worlds - every residential world could become one.

New Tourist and Hospitality Career
Be a bell hop, a tram conductor, cleaner, housekeeping manager, front of desk services, concierge etc

    Boat for Four
    Transport between different neighbourhoods AND a group activity where sims can have fun and make friends together.

    Cruise Ship
    As special effects. We have trams and paddleboat steamers. This world needs a huge cruise ship sailing by.
    Also, at the Concierge's Desk we can book tours to sail on it.

  • Yes, I would be very interested in this pack. I was going to say that it should have a pizza oven. Maybe also casinos and wine? There can be some villains/mafia for those wanting that. Elements for that are already in the game. They could add some danger and risk.

    I'd want to vacation but also have sims live there. The Mediterranean is a big region with many countries, so I'd be fine with this being a mish mash of influences from the region.

    Nectar/nectar-making would obviously make sense. We already have bowls of olives but it sounds like a few more options could be added, maybe some influences from other countries such as Greece and Spain as well? Italian music is also quite different so a new radio station could be added.

    I'd just generally play with the theme. I'd want some more ruins. I also think there should be some houses that are "fixer uppers" for renovating. This would be a good way to add investment property as well as hotels. I don't quite know how the paper crafts connect but maybe there could be carnival masks and a masked ball? That sounds like it could be modern or historic.

    I think the town should glitter on the surface but be a little rundown as you look more closely with opportunities for the player to improve it through battling local corruption, beautifying spaces and renovating.

    The more I think about the masked ball, the more I think they could add the fortune teller and maybe some supernatural stuff for those wanting it. Somehow, I could picture the Grim Reaper as a terrifying mob boss. I don't really want to enact that in my game but it sounds like others would.

    Anyway, yes, I hope that they release a Mediterranean theme.

    @ChampandGirlie - I love your carnival mask idea! Suits Venice perfectly. The paper crafts are because I want kids to have something more to do. I'd really like a versatile crafting station as a group activity. Seasons gave us a few paper options, but they can't play with them. I'd love for kids to make toys and then play with them.

    What is considered Mediterranean? Apparently, a quote via google:
    France, Spain, Italy, Greece, and Portugal along the north; Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, and Israel on the east; and the African countries of Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia on the south.
