Bonehilda Returning?

Doesn't look like bonehilda to me, more like interactive skeleton decor, I would say something like mummy but not a lifestate
I think this is some kind of vacation like world adventure but I'm not sure if tropical

It's in the same postion as a Sim was in the previous picture, so I'm not sure it's an object but I could be wrong? Maybe it's like a curse? Like in those movies where you touch an ancient artifact and turn into a skeleton (pretty sure that was in one of the Indiana Jones movies)?

Remember full lifestates cannot come in a GP unless that game pack is dedicated to them (like vampires)
I think that skeleton may act like a lifestate in a specific locations and cannot roam freely
Unless EA broke the rule this time and included a fully functional occult in a GP

Maybe they never leave the gp location. Like YA's in Sims 2 could not leave the University towns. You could have that type. Or it could be just a temporary stage like the Sim Frog People caused by a spell.

I think it might be a sort of local NPC like the bear in GF or the racoons in CL.

Let's see if snakes and spiders will be available in this GP, in the movies they are always there.

No such thing is snakes and spiders!

What? Sims has had snakes and spiders - many times. In sims 3 pets you can have pet snakes. The spooky packs have spiders and it is not the first time either.

Come to think of it, I'd like it if we could buy vacation homes like in Sims 2 and 3. But then that would require larger vacation worlds, and so far with OR and Vampires...

In OR we got five lots that are rentable. If I could change any of them to residential, then I could have one private house, two community lots (one restaurant and one spa), one rentable cabin and one campsite.

Still sounds kind of bare to me

There is absolutely no rule that says that. Just because it hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it can't.

A chore is something you MUST do, like laundry. Collecting coins is a reward.

But in order to enjoy a vacation home with maybe 2+ people you must do it and then do other quests for half the vacation period just to get in the house..:lol: I wouldn't call that exactly a reward to me (more like an overload chore), but that's just me. Unless one wants to be cramped with a dozen random people in a camp (worst honeymoon ever lol). Not to mention technically, you don't have to do laundry...you technically "choose" to...unless ya know...one prefers the life of messy houses lol.

The reward for a clean house? priceless :lol: . But hey that's just me I guess <3. I'm just saying a chore can almost be anything if one doesn't wish to do it (or at least dread it :lol: ).

Yeah but laundry doesn't clean the house - it made it messy in sims 3. My sims clothes did not get dirty as long as I did not put the washer in my sims house. So it is sort of an unnecessary chore.

I am getting the pack because I want the other content- but the washers won't be in my sims house. But rattan and wicker can really make for a cute beach house in BB and my sim already has that little house on the beach I want to fix up with some of that stuff. I like the clothes too - so I will get it. I still wish we got the eco stuff but the pack is what it is -

Would you enjoy it if it was like Makin' Magic where you had to earn over 1500 coins to buy a home in Magic Town? Though I did love that EP, it became a big chore, and I never did earn them all. Years later I got a mod to go ahead and give my Sims all the coins they needed (especially when they could only earn a few at a time in Magic Town) to finally get to look at Old Man Lum's property. That's actually sad I never did get enough to move to Magic Town without a cheat/mod years later.

Oh I don't mean I full lifestate more like a temporary effect on the Sim (that makes them look like a skeleton). That's what I mean by a curse.

That is also possible! I hope there's more interaction with it (whether it's a curse or half-lifestate)

Whatever it means I'm excited :smiley:

I’m excited about CAS from the SP and extremely curious about the new GP. It could be like an island
