BINGO BANGO SIMBO: bring Bingo halls to sims!

I wouldn't mind this. It would be nice for Elder sims to go play Bingo. More Elder activities would be much appreciated, since they're the most forgotten lifestage!

My idea would be a Casino where You can rent a hotel room like You do for jungle adventure and actually stay there, ( not a rabbit hole) and have a bar, slot machines that actually give prizes, and claw machines. You could add bingo in the casino. You could build a whole pack around a Casino idea really. Those who have Dine-In could add a place to eat. There could be a pool, all kinds of things. Or another Idea would be a Resort build. Same idea but without the slots, just claw machine and other things.

Yeah, Myshuno = Bingo. I don't know why it's not in TS4. Maybe because it's considered to be gambling? Laws against the promotion of gambling tend to be really strict in some countries. It's why Pokemon games no longer have gambling halls.

It could be added should generations EVER be brought out, something for elders to do that can be expanded to everyone in general long as you have the venue set when building, also, it can be a lil game option in old folks homes and the prize is who gets to change the tv channel and get hilarious reactions from losers.

Easily have it as one of MANY small-time games like cards, snooker, we already have darts/ping pong and that drinking one so why not add those and a bunch of others, obviously altered to make the gambling factor less visible but keep the overall tone, I mean we could throw this on a game pack and theme it as ACTIVITY TIME! Add a new arcade venue for the kids/teens/childish adults, give them the ability to ask for some change to go play while your sim and grandma go get their bingo on! Or maybe you go win some tickets for that stuffed bear and jr hangs out with the gals in the hall (Is it obvious that even at 26, I'd rather play bingo than at the arcade?), the choice is yours and on a good night, maybe someone comes home 25K richer, or Jenny has to lend a hand to help get that giant stuffed teddy through the door!


The more I think about this pack idea, the better it gets because even though the theme is small, it would fill that gap Get Together always had since its release, more things to do, more fun, more ways to chill out with the family or friends and just enjoy life. Maybe even add soft play for toddlers or puppy daycare (Optional jobs too! for anyone who loves working with puppies/kitties), keep everyone happy.

Casinos would be great.

I've mentioned this a few times.
Keeping the elder theme of the thread, imagine tour buses full of senior citizens visiting all the different casinos on a Vegas Strip-inspired world! That would be awesome.

Also Vegas weddings and Elvis impersonators (Mortimer Goth impersonators?)

Isn’t there a game in JTB that is akin to gambling? I feel like I’ve read that in the JTB threads.

Either way, more board games would be fun. And if it were to operate like a bingo hall, I think it’s possible if they do it similar to how yoga works where placing an object spawns a leader Sim leading a group activity.

Other activities could be laser tag and mini golf. I’m also waiting for more arcade games so I can have a more robust and dynamic arcade (I know thats not necessarily group centric). Also some sort of studio for learning new dances like ballet, salsa, and other dances that often involve formal training.

I like that idea! Something besides bowling to do!

That might be; I don't have JTB and probably won't ever get it. Plus, it did also occur to me that The Sims is a T-rated series, not E like Pokemon games. Other T-rated (not EA) games I've played had gambling in them, too.

Still don't know what the lack of Myshuno means.

I'd like bingo added.

What if the Sims didn't play for money but fun and the social aspect? Perhaps winning a prize like a coffee machine or something. Would that be a work around?

We had slot machines, poker, roulette and other casino games in Sims 3 so I don’t think gambling is an issue. I would love to see them in Sims 4 too, along with bingo.
