The first time playing with a mermaid is novel, with specific powers (at the cost of hydration) allowing you to perform actions such as entrancing other Sims into the water like a siren and – if you have the Seasons expansion – change the weather. Hydration is replenished by doing tasks like swimming in the ocean and taking a shower.
We've seen glimpses of this in a couple of previous expansions, such as the diverse, metropolitan world of San Myshuno in City Living and the European-inspired Windenburg in Get Together, but developer Maxis outdid themselves here.Ī mermaid has the same needs as a normal Sim, except for the 'hygiene' meter being replaced with 'hydration'. There are points of interest in the world worth exploring as well – for instance, a gorgeous waterfall which Sims like to shower and play in (it's also a romantic spot for marriage proposals) and an active volcano that spews out hazardous lava bombs from time to time.īut what's most impressive about Sulani is how it evokes a real sense of place in a way that no other world has really done before. But with the amount of things your Sims can do outside, whether it's on the sandy beaches or the vast water, Sulani is the closest the game has come to replicating that open-world feeling.
To this day, one of the most common criticisms about The Sims 4 is the lack of 'open world'. This also has a wonderful side effect of making the three neighbourhoods feel more expansive.
