What do you think is the "surprise" in the world of ROM is?

Magical town only visible to magic users à la 12 Grimmauld Place.

A cool concept would be that the new world is normal like the other words, and then when you step through the portal you travel to the same world but this version is magic. Kind of like Harry Potter style. I think that would be really cool, so for those who play a more realistic gameplay will still have a new world without magic to play in. ?? I don't think this will be it, but its still kind of a cool idea.

I feel like it might be related to this the place looks sort of ''out of the world''
maybe the portal leads to some weird dimension??

Pheonix ?

Magic Town would be great, but they did state that it's something they've never done in a Sims game before. that's never been seen before in a Sims game. So, I've got absolutely nothing on what it could be. D;

I think we'll be able to access the new world as usual but somewhere in this world we'll find the portal and that will teleport us to an alternate version of the new world.

I wonder... if the portals will take you to different "Realms"? I think it would be awesome, if each time you entered the portal, the world would change to a different realm. That is something never seen before in Sims. Probably (most likely) not what it is though.

However, I really hope that they didn't spend a lot of resources on this world+ surprise... and then game-play for witches is lacking. :( Though, they did not disappoint with Vampires, I'm just worried, because the bar is definitely high because of how great Vampires are. (and Sulani... gorgeous... it changes with decisions you make.. and game-play.. kind of a bit.. lack-luster), just don't want that to happen with this game-pack. :( But! I'll try to wait and see before I get too bummed out. I'm excited for the trailer tomorrow! :)

Maybe the world will look normal to non magic folk, but people who have magic will go though the portal and it will be the same town but it will like a mirrored world filled with magic.

Honestly, I hope it's this! Best of both worlds. I really don't want wacky witches running around in my normal gameplay.
