I took my chicken to the fair and they didn't give her back after it was done. I liked that chicken. Now the mayor and my sim are enemies.

It goes into your inventory that is accessible in the build mode. I thought the same and was unhappy until I remembered that inventory space. 😁

@@mazonc11 I think it’s a really good pack, but $40 is literally insane. That’s soooo much money for something that’s not even a full game. I’ve played games with crazy good graphics and tons of content that are $20. FULL GAMES. How can they charge $40 for a pack ? They’re so greedy, and that’s my problem with it. They don’t care about their customers at all.

@@wandering4786 I think the theme and concept of this pack is great but gameplay wise, it doesn’t expand the basegame, it’s literally just another layer of icing on an incomplete cake that’s missing it’s basic ingredients. As long as people pay full price for these packs and buy them on release days EA will continue to push them out, same thing with kits they know what they’re doing

Idk if it's an idea for gameplay, but I have discovered something, that I haven't seen anyone share before. So if you go to the Isle of Volpe and you play an instrument, the birds will come and they will do like a "swoop" around your sim, which will bust their skill a little, they will also sing along. I don't know if it works for singing but I assume it does and for other instruments other than violin (my sim was playing violin) Also, it's not an interaction, you don't have to be friends with the birds, and you can play in any place of the Isle of Volpe

Someone has probably said this somewhere in the comments already, but when it shows the sim putting the jar in the pan, irl when canning some foods need to be pressurized in a special pan to seal them while others need to be placed in hot water. Also irl it can be a dangerous hobby. My dad has experienced multiple jars exploding especially when pressurized if something went wrong. Just a fun fact.

This has honestly been my favorite pack as of recent but getting money for food and such is pretty hard because crops grow so slow. I was trying to have my Sim kind of rough it for a change of pace for myself but again the income is too slow and my sim is barely having any time to tend to herself because the animals are so needy. Seriously anytime I try to have my Sim paint or try and write a book or something for extra money her cow is always complaining about something. And even while selling animal produce, book royalties and paintings she barely breaks even to pay her bills. Am I missing something?
