The Sims 4: Underworld
Don't worry about your Sim's loss, as you are able to play your Sims in the afterlife stage now!
New worlds : A Heaven and an Underworld. Those are the world that are only accessible if a Sim dies.
- Sims with good behavior are able to move to Heaven after death, while the normal or bad ones go to the Underworld.
- Sims are not able to return to the original worlds unless by some ways.
- Heaven is a world with a lot of clouds, bright light beams, and a peaceful ambience. You will be able to meet other good behavior deceased Sims here, and become neighbors, friends, or even get married with your afterlife partner too!
- New NPC featured in Heaven : Father Heaven (Sims' God literally), Mother Heaven (Sims' Goddess), Fairy Godmothers, Angels (Including a Cupid) etc.
- Underworld is another world featured, but is the opposite of it of the Heaven. This world is quite and dark, and has no daytime. The Underworld also featured a spooky ambience.
- New NPC featured in Underworld : Interactive Grim Reaper, Demons, Gargoyle etc.
- Sims may earn simoleons by working in the Angelogy, Fairylogy or the Mythology careers in Heaven. Angelogy focuses on jobs like guarding alive Sims, judging the life and death, and also serving for Father and Mother Heaven.
- Fairylogy focuses on the uses of magic, the production of remedies, as well as healing and blessing.
- Mythology focuses on management of Heaven's residences , studies on knowledges, histories and myths.
- While in the Underworld, Sims may do their job by working in the Grim Reaper, Ghost Catcher, or Spirit Hunter careers. Grim Reapers take away alive Sims' life and bring them to the Underworld (only if the Sim wasn't brought to Heaven by Angels). Ghost Catchers arrest ghosts in Sims' world from haunting around and scaring Sims. Spirit Hunters, in the other hand, have to learn about spells and curses, and have to hunt for the devils or demons around Sims' world.
- In the regular Sims' worlds, Gypsy Matchmaker makes a comeback with a new purpose. She enables Sims to visit the Heaven or Underworld in order to look for the dead family members, without the need to die. However, it's a dangerous action while it will cause death if the process failed, and the visiting Sim has to stay at the Heaven or Underworld world forever.
- There is a holiday in Heaven and Underworld, which enables the deceased Sims to visit the regular worlds and their original home in ghost form. However, no alive Sims are able to see them.
- The time of Heaven and Underworld are of their own and different from it of the regular worlds. 1 in-Sim day equals to that of 1 week in Heaven or the Underworld.
- A new huge feature in the pack is of the reincarnation. The time before reincarnation depends on how a Sim behaves in the afterlife stage. The better the Sim's behavior, the faster the Sim to be able to reincarnate. To be able to reincarnate, you may need to have an alive Sim to be pregnant. When reincarnated, the game will be processed to the family, and the deceased Sim will therefore return to the Sims' world after being bornt.
- A new memory system will be reintroduced, however, memories are erased after reincarnation, except for some circumstances.
- Remember the Gypsy Matchmaker? She is now also able to make a Sim to know about his/her previous identity, and some memories of the past life (as well as traits) would be brought back.
- If The Sims 4: Cats and Dogs is installed, deceased Sims would have a chance to be reincarnated as animals too.
- The better the behavior of the Sims in Heaven, the more the freedom to choose which family to reincarnate. This is not applied to the Underworld, as the Sims have no choice but to reincarnate randomly. However, the Sims in Heaven tend to be reincarnated in those families that are either rich or knowledgeable.
Believe or not, this was one of my random shower thoughts.
