![]() That being said, the areas between the lots are much larger than previous game packs, with different rabbit holes, collectables and forage areas to keep you occupied. Regardless, smaller maps are always disappointing to the community with the limitations it brings to creativity. Maxis have expressed through previous game packs that worlds are getting smaller to accommodate for more packs and bigger game files, as such smaller worlds are made to keep our games running smoothly. Sadly, there are only five available lots, two community lots, and three residential on the map. The trope of industrial buildings being reclaimed by nature is something that's been popularised with post-apocalyptic genres like the Last of Us, as such, we can see that inspiration here. The theme of the world hits the mark, with Moonwood Mill being an abandoned milling town, there are scrap heaps and broken windows throughout the world, adding to the environmental storytelling. They missed an opportunity here to have a hidden werewolf den with rare collectables or even an Easter egg to other werewolf pop culture and lore. ![]() It would have been exciting if the sims team implemented a secret world like that of the Sylvan Glade or Forgotten Grotto in Oasis Springs. One of the rabbit holes does lead to an underground werewolf bunker, and this is a standard area to eat, rest and wash. There are new explorable tunnels, however these are standard rabbit holes with pop-up choices rather than new areas to explore for yourself. ![]() The level of world design on display is impressive, with new Lycan-inspired forage items and artefacts ready to dig up. ![]() The new world, aptly named Moonwood Mill, is forever misty like something straight out of Sleepy Hollow. The shorts do have a wolf tail attached to them though, which may spark some joy. There are only two full-body options for toddlers with this pack, and two tops and one set of shorts for children. The adult hairstyles are available for children, which is a nice touch, but if you were hoping for new clothing options, you'll be disappointed. Now you can pop a mullet and colourful jumper on your sim and sing 'Running Up That Hill' to your heart's content as your werewolf rampages through the town.Īs always, CAS falls short when it comes to children and toddlers, with very few options. As such, the Maxis team has cashed in on this and there is a choice between natural and vibrant mullets to try. Whether you love or hate them, mullets are back in fashion thanks to the success of Stranger Things. With only two new tattoos, however, this feels like a missed opportunity to inject some much-needed grunge into The Sims. What's interesting is the new choice of nose piercings, tattoos, and scars. There's a total of twelve tops, seven bottoms, and three pairs of shoes included in the pack. Whether you want to rock a torn-off shorts look, or have your wolves lounge around in cosy jumpers, the possibilities are varied. There are also knit-wear options that can be worn by both male and female body types, which affords versatility in clothing choice for your sims. Most options are torn trousers and flannel shirts, as you'd expect from any 90's horror flick. The cosmetic items featured in 'create a sim' lean into the werewolf tropes of classic horror.
