Nostalgic Game #24 – Eternal Sonata

This is a game I got into just for the music, but I never regretted it. It’s based on the life and work of Polish pianist and composer Frédéric Chopin. The story is fictional and fantastical, but uses his music beautifully. I have put many hours into this game over the years, and it’s one […]

Current Game #25 – Megaquarium Wrap-up

I had SOOO much fun with this. And, apparently, so did my viewers, because when given the opportunity to choose between sims and a third day of Megaquarium, they chose this game. (See below for links to all three VODs if you missed it!) Overall, this was a really fun time, and provided me with hours of off-stream play this week, too (because I just couldn’t stop playing the game!!) – which meant I got very little else done this week. LOL. Which probably wasn’t a bad thing, it just means I needed a break. I adore this little game, and if you’re into management games, this is one you most definitely should pick up. You won’t regret it!!

Egyptian Temple & Town Lot

This is a lot built for my Timeline Adventure Challenge Egyptian Generation (Second part of Two). This is the part of the generation where they raise their family. Next week, I’ll post the residential lots, but I have SO many pictures of this main “commercial” lot (could be set as residential, too) that I felt adding more pictures would just be too many. This lot was originally just the temple, but I ended up adding one of kerrykitty’s shell challenges to the side to make it a village, too. I did duplicate some of the buildings… but it fit exactly what I wanted for a village.

Unplayed Honorable Mentions – World of Warcraft

Let’s just say I don’t know how many months of my life have been lost in this game. I literally cannot even fathom it. This was the game that pulled me out of my obsession with Asheron’s Call. It’s also the game that allowed me to meet my hubby. So, there’s definitely a lot of […]

Llama Community Center

voted for by chat. They decided where, and what, and how I was building, and I went from there. So, a strange shaped modern-ish Community Center build is what we ended up with. It got included in the save file because it’s pretty darn impressive. (And because … how many four-part builds do I really want to have to do?!) This one is designed for the Sprucewood Square lot in Evergreen Harbor.

Current Game #25 – Megaquarium

As we move up the ranking list, I fully expect to have games pull me in so “badly” that I will end up wanting to play them more than the two days scheduled, and this is one game I fear will be that way. Currently, the plan is to work on the main story campaign (starting from the beginning) on Monday, and then on Tuesday check out the Freshwater DLC campaign (which I’ve never played)… however, I do not know if I’ll be ready to stop playing after that. So Thursday/Friday this week will serve as “swing” days that I could continue playing if I want to. With that being said, let’s get into learning about this super-addictive little gem of a game.

Honorable Mention Game #22 – StarCraft wrap-up

With my current boycott of Blizzard, I don’t feel I have the option to continue playing this on stream, but if that wasn’t the case, I definitely would schedule more days of this. I had so much fun, and I really enjoyed seeing where the story is going in StarCraft II. (Again, I had never played past the second campaign mission before this.) I very much look forward to the day I can revisit this game and see the rest of the story!!

Nostalgic Game #25 – SimTower Wrap-up

Okay, I’ll be honest here – I did not expect to have fun going back to this game after all these years. However, what happened was the complete opposite. I had SO much fun. In fact, I went back and let my tower run over night a couple of nights, so it’s all ready for another day of streaming at some time. In other words, if I find another game that doesn’t hold my attention, I could easily pull out some SimTower to replace the second day of that game. The game-play is still addicting, challenging, and engrossing. It 100% holds up to my memory of the game, and it was really fun to see how many people had also been hooked on this game at some point in their life. Expect to see this game return to the stream at some point this year! See below for the VOD of this game on youtube in case you missed the broadcast or just wanted to relive the fun!

Day 10 Build & Sim

I had so much fun with this sim and her home. I think she’s gorgeous. I tried very hard to copy the right features for her from photos. Also, the build is one of my top favorites of my builds – it’s simply beautiful. I had a really hard time with it until the Oasis […]

I am a 47 year old American wife, mother, and gamer. I’ve lived in the Midwest most of my life, and enjoy it for the changing seasons. My favorite movie is Labyrinth, my favorite game is Sims 4, and I have tattoos related to both. My favorite colors are purple, red, and green. When I’m not playing games (which is rare) I also enjoy reading and crafting. I’m also an animal lover, and have had many types of pets over the years. Currently, I have a dog named Cassie who is a Jack Russel / Beagle mix and five young fancy rats (all of whom are rescues). I run this Sims 4 Blog where I post screenshots and stories about the different challenges I play. Also here are the Sims 4 challenges I've written, and a place for me to store all the Sims 4 knowledge I've gotten over the years. I am also a Sims 4/variety streamer on Twitch for my mental health, fun, and to meet new people. I am also in the EA Creator Network and an Ubisoft Partner, which is a dream come true! I look forward to meeting you!
