The Sims 3: World Adventures

After creating your ideal Sim, house, and family, there’s only one thing left to do: expand your horizons. Leave your humble home using The Sims 3: World Adventures to explore an exciting new country. Following the lead of other vacation expansions for The Sims, World Adventures lets you cut loose and enjoy three brand new locations. Egypt, China, and France are awaiting your arrival, and each country has a new set of skills for your Sims to learn. Visit the pyramids of Egypt and learn all about photography as you explore ancient artifacts; the game will actually switch to a first person point-of-view so you can snap pictures. Study martial arts in China, honing your skills for upcoming tournaments. And the beauty of France is a site to behold, where you’ll learn how to make sweet nectar. But as the title says, this game is all about “adventure" and various quests are linked together by a main story. Your expeditions can range from exploring tombs (avoid the mummies, they’ll curse you) to collecting valuable treasures. That photography skill will come in handy as you capture each and every breathtaking moment.
