Simtopia Museum

A llittle bit further down the thread I show my basegame only museum I build, if you would like that one you can find it as Simsville Museum


I wanted to thank my almost 400 simmers for their support in following me so I build them this museum after some of you suggested it in a previous thread <3 I am quite happy how it came out. I changed it from a museum to a residential property to test that every single item that is a collectable was infact there and they were (well some where missing and I added them after testing lol) so I know they are all there now so if you would like to use it that way as well, then you can. Otherwise this is a nice place for your sims to visit to see the collections on display. There are three stories, one is in the basement.

Here are some pics of the museum and its floors. I will explain where the collections were placed. I really do hope you like this build it took me 3 days of non stop simming to build it :D

Outside of the museum
The outside has some seats to sit and some play areas for the kids as well as the painting easles to paint.

Second floor
This floor contains the following collections. Feather, frogs, insects in one part. I placed the city posters in the toilet area on that floor. In the other part there is the fish and gardening collections as well as the microscope prints

This floor contains a kiddy section that has the following collections, my sims, easter eggs, snowglobes, voidcritter and holiday cracker plusies. In the centre there is a cupcake stall and some seating, the experimental food and postcard collections are found there. On the other side you have your fossils, crystals, metals, elements, geodes and plantsim magic beans.

    The first part is looking very nice ! :)


    Thanks, lots of thinking involved if its base game, like my little cafe had to go that is a gamepack edition mmmm, so I made a study instead, and made the postcards bigger to look like paintings. Its becoming less like a museum and more like a city hall or community hall, so you all must please help me by thinking of a name as I carry on finishing this off ;)

    @Fizzstix We got them with basegame, you get them when you complete space adventures by travelling in the rocket ship. I am glad, because they are so pretty :)

    It's amazing! Even as basegame! well done.


    Thank you so much @Fizzstix, it was actually inspired by your comment about the missing statues, I like it if people are happy with a download and it contains what they see, this way with a basegame only I am sure they will experience that <3

    Awww <3

    SimsVille Museum is very nice! :) It is great that you have created a version that is only base game. The design and furnishing of the levels with the collectibles items looks very nice! It is great that there is a wedding area in the museum also.


    Thank you @rosemow <3

    Sorry for the late replies, we were camping in a non cellphone and data reception area for the long weekend :D


    Hope you had a relaxing and great time camping.
