So I love Jungle Adventures (and being a Vampire AND arch is all kinds of broken but I suppose a Caster has better 'stats' to do it with the sun not being a concern) and I know both ruins and grabbing artifacts in ruins are technically the same activity cuz your exploring ruins for artifacts but do you enjoy the puzzles or do you enjoy authenticating artifacts more? Also skeletons are hilarious! So what's the funnest part of JA?

The selvadoradian culture: learning the dance, the recipes... this is what i did the first times i sent a sim on vacation there. My sim even married a selvadoradian :) But i like it all in JA. Most recently i have been exploring the temple and it's really cool. Also the archeology skill is a very nice skill.

Funny story I got a "blessing of the skeleton." and it took me like 5 minutes to even realize my sim was one

Between the archaeology skill and investigating the ruins I enjoy archaeology more. It was my unrealized childhood dreamjob and I did a few elective courses relating to archaeology at uni. Recently I tore down all the old buildings in Windenburg old town and before I'm going to build the neighborhood up again I let my archaeology students run loose on the lots, with tents, microscopes, chemistry stations and dig sites pulled from debug mode. But what I love most about the actual pack is exploring the jungle: the chance cards that actually take my sims' skills into account, the survival feeling, the many screenshot/painting/photography opportunities, the creepy crawlie attacks, building basecamps and I even brought home a stray dog once.

Exploring the forest and how nice the world is

I love exploring Selvadorada in general and the temples in specific. I just wish there was a bit more to the puzzles so that if your sim was stumped you as the player weren't just going with a guess. (or maybe there are hints and I'm just missing them because I tend to play fairly zoomed out.)

I love this pack. Archaeology and jungle exploration are a lot of fun and the world is beautiful. There are always too many residential locations for my needs so I replace a couple with other lots instead so sims who aren't into archaeology can do fun stuff in the area.

Well the intent is to rent a house for like a sim week and investigate jungle or the culture ~~mostly jungle hence the name~~

I do this as well. I have one or two 'residentials', the rest are community lots.

I love exploring in the ruins. That’s one thing I loved the most about the sims 3 world adventures. You had different cultures but exploring the ruins & having to bypass all the traps were really fun. I really hope they improve & add more adventures like that. Jungle adventures is not that great as sims 3 world.

I like to have one for a single sim and a couple and one for a family. I don't see the need for more. I do something similar with Granite Falls - one for families, one for couples or a single sim, plus the campground.

This is my favourite game pack. At a push I would say I love exploring the jungle the most. Out of all the packs this is the one I have explored the most I love exploring the jungle, finding archaeology objects, learning the culture, the world itself, the bb items are my type of style and the cas is nice. I love sending my sims to selvadorada for all different types of holiday including a nice villa for families to go to. This is one of the few packs I would advise to buy at full price

I love the beautiful Jungle World, the pretty clothes & cool hairstyles. I wish my sims could actually live there instead of just vacationing.

The world is my favorite part. It's so pretty, I love taking my sims there for a honeymoon.

I have turned the area around the cantina into kind of a resort area, so my sims go there more often to relax and do stuff at the spa, cantina and museum (with playground and picnic area added) than they go exploring. It makes a nice family or romantic vacation spot, and they can learn the rumbasim and some new recipes even if they're not all explorer types.
I do enjoy the exploration every so often, but it's a bit repetitive so I don't do it with all my sims. Archaeology I haven't fully explored yet.

Definitely archaeology. I love to explore, find, and collect things in the Sims 4 and all of the artifacts and treasures are so lovely even tough I wish there was more variation aside from recolors and more treasures to collect.
