Since the icon itself has a Mayan flavor and the teaser showed bits of ruins, someone turning into a skeleton, and possible exploration and/or adventure, I'm going to guess that the pack might be called something like, "The Lost Island", or "The Cursed Mountain" or "Danger Island" or perhaps something like "Explorer" or "Ancient Ruins".
I'm wondering if this pack might have been inspired by the "Dangerous" theme that was being voted on back when we thought we were getting an Eco Living stuff pack. It could possibly include some dangerous exploration, a few curses, and new ways for sims to die. But I think it could also possibly contain some archaeology and ancient ruins for build/buy, as well as exotic jungle plants and Aztec designs. Kind of an "Indiana Jones in Mesoamerica" vibe. Maybe there are riddles and puzzles to get into old temple pyramids and jungle mazes. I'd also love to see some exotic animals like jaguars, serpents, and the legendary Quetzacoatl.
But I'm being really hopeful about this. It could, of course, just be a regular vacation isle with a single place to explore and get a skeleton curse.
That would be so cool! Now I'm really hoping it is like this haha I'd buy it for that dangerous element. Maybe the puzzle is trying to get into the temple or find the way out of the temple. I noticed the skeleton with the hat and I also thought it would be a new death or just skeletons that live within the ruins. If it is a new death, it would probably follow the career path for archaeologist (maybe its an interactive career and they go to ruins to do tasks) or becoming a skeleton will be a side effect from an event or drink within the ruins.
With all that being said, I think this will be part of the pack:
- Tools for exploring or excavating
- Sleeping bags
- Skeletons (as NPCs living in temples or new death type)
- Souvenirs (maybe cursed skull or random artifacts)
- Puzzles to get into or out of the temple
- Natives to the island (hopefully sims can learn new hand gestures and sayings like in sims 2)
- New Career: Archaeologist/Adventurer
- New skill, maybe Research or Pottery?
- New items to craft
- New seeds to plant
- New adventurer outfits/accessories
I would
love an archaeology career. I made a sim last year whose backstory included a career in archaeology, and this would really bring him closer to how I envisioned him. :)
