The top 3 hidden in spoilers for some artificially introduced tension.
8. Cottage Living. 14 points. Hairstyles with Alice Bands, some good tops, pearl necklaces and men's jackets contribute to a higher score than a setting that is more Edwardian England would normally expect but there's the bonus of the British red telephone box and it just has a feel of The Avengers....the real Avengers. Steed and Mrs Peel, that Avengers.
7. City Living. 18 points. A big leap in points but there's a lot here from Indian fashion, decor and a cosmopolitan metropolitan feel to everything.
6. Seasons. 18 points. With the hats and coats you can get a good "That Girl" vibe to your Sims. Lots here and there that's spot on. More the winter stuff than the summer stuff of use.
5. Discover University. 18 points. Go to college, protest something, try to hook up with so many groovy chicks and guys. I mean, that's the Sixties right there and all those layered minidresses and college frat jackets go a long way to create the look.
4. Get Famous. 19 points. Just edging out the previous 3 entries is a pack that offers a lot...don't bother with the costumes, it's the lights! Camera! Action feel of the CAS and B&B that's the stand out here. "Work the camera, baby! Ignore this! Ignore me clicking my fingers...and I'm spent!"
And now...in 3rd place it's...
Silver medal goes to...
And the winner, the most Sixties pack EA and Maxis have ever made for The Sims 4...it's
OK, I'm now off to get a life...see you later.

Dream Home Decorator. 22 points. It's always the quiet ones, isn't it? This is the pack that hardly anyone talks about and yet it's brilliant. A great men's Sixties hairstyle, some decent CAS but it's the mod furniture that's amazing here.
Silver medal goes to...
Spoiler
Get Together. 27 points. So much Sixties CAS to enjoy. Good for male fashion as well. Furniture not so much as there's an olde worlde feel to that.
And the winner, the most Sixties pack EA and Maxis have ever made for The Sims 4...it's
Spoiler
High School Years. 31 points. The runaway, undisputed winner here. Miniskirts and dresses, guy's shirts with puffy sleeves, footwear, flares, dorky hairstyles, cool hairstyles, minimalist furniture, brightly coloured wall decorations...it's a great one for the Sixties enthusiast...I'll wait for the bugs to be fixed first.
OK, I'm now off to get a life...see you later.
