The Sims 4 Island Living Expansion Pack has been out for around 3 days now and we wanted to see how the community is currently playing the game. Best way to do it? Ask them to share some of their favorite screenshots from the pack so far!
We asked the community what they think about the pack as well as to share some of their favorite screenshots that they’ve made in-game. Here are some of our favorite submissions that the community has shared:
Because I genuinely can’t choose, here’s: a rainbow above the ocean; yoga among the chickens; a swimming mermaid; a food stall on the beach!
this pack is just pure visual and aesthetics and shit but ultimate feels like a game pack.

Yeah, basically. I ran out of things to do after restoring the Island to it’s full glory. I’ve completed the shell collection and I’m one level away from the conservationist career. My sim basically comes home prepares grant application, cleans the volcano, swims (she is a mermaid) all night and beachcombs in the morning before going to work and the circle repeats itself again. The world is beautiful though.

You’d hate The Sims 1 & 2. It’s not about completing lists of tasks; it’s sandbox. There are several new interactive objects and activities and it expands gameplay for all ages. There are *a lot* of features.

This is tied with City Living as my favourite pack. So much to do and such a beautiful world.

I love it.. I like the variety of careers and activities, and have built cultural lots to embrace the zone. The building has been so fun! I think I turned out something like 8 builds within the first two days. I don’t even want to visit other worlds right now.

Is it just me having problem with sims instead of swimming in ocean/pool running on top of water?
