I love occults, but I enjoyed Strangerville more than I enjoy Realm of Magic. If you like crazyness, Strangervilles is the craziest of all. I only solved the mystery twice (for different outcomes), but I still play in that world with new saves even with all the crazies twisting about (I don't mind them, but a lot of people do and I completely get how they could be annoying).
I like Discover University a lot, though you'd think there'd be just a bit more family play involved. Sometimes parents randomly show up to visit at the dorm (though my college student never has time to hang out with them lol) and there's the occassional call from the parents to come visit and once you're there you get the "Hang out with family" prompt, but that's all there is to it, I think.
Tiny Living has that relationship boost to offer if you don't need much space for your family.
And Moschino doesn't have too much offer on those fronts, but I love the build items and the photographer career (the jobs are actually interesting and fun to complete) if that's anything you'd be interested in.
