Nature

Feel at home in nature

The Natural Living Skill is about becoming more comfortable outside, to the point where your Sim is as happy living in the great outdoors as they would be with a bed and plumbing. Sims can meet their needs in nature by sleeping on the ground, relieving themselves in a Privy Bush, talking to nature, and eating food they Forage or catch, among other things. Sims may find these things uncomfortable at first, but will become more comfortable as their skill level increases.

Try 3 new traits

Plant Lovers are happiest surrounded by greenery and will sink into negative moods if they’re away from plants for too long. Mystical Sims are empathetic and want to guide others towards more balanced lives, so they’ll build their Apothecary and Gardening skills faster. Disruptive Sims are daring individuals who love freedom and excitement, even if their fun is sometimes at the expense of others. They’ll build Mischief, Logic and Charisma skills faster.

Bring nature inside

Grow just about any plant inside using 4 new Tabletop Plant Pots! These pots will fit in medium-sized spaces, like on tables or shelves, and you can use them to grow both harvestable and decorative plants. Turn your home into a lush garden. Another way to bring the outside inside is the new Nature Press, which Sims can use to create décor like candles and wall art from the treasures they find in nature.

Magic

Develop mystical powers

Fairy Sims will gain experience by using their powers or performing specific interactions. As they gain experience, they’ll be able to learn abilities, like curing Ailments or bestowing them. Changing the moods or luck of other Sims, bottling emotions, creating seeds, and making plants bloom are also examples of Fairy skills. Remember: everything has its cost! Fairies are nourished by emotion, and their abilities cost emotional energy they will need to recharge.

Style unique Fairies

Create Fairies with beautiful wings you can paint freely! New facial presets, skin tones, glowing tattoos, and fairycore fashion will be available. Fairy Sims can have a separate Fairy Form, in addition to their normal Sim form. While Sims can start as

Fairies in CAS, they can also become Fairies through a special journey that’ll have them summoning Mother Nature and visiting the Enchanted Springs. Fairies also have a new WooHoo and a new death, Emotional Starvation.

Enchant plants, Gnomes, and more

You don’t have to be a Fairy to use Fairy Dust – it’s enchanting fun for everyone! Use it to bring Gnomes to life and have them help around your lot, or enchant plants & objects created with the Nature Press. Enchanted plants may be easier to care for or produce a bigger harvest, but they can also attract magical pests called Pixies. Fairies create their own Fairy Dust. Other Sims can ask them for it, and both Fairies and non-Fairies can find it while Foraging or pick it up at special locations.

Balance

Experience strange effects

There are 8 different Ailments, and they’re not all bad. A lot of them depend on your perspective. For example, The Luck Magnet will build up your Sim’s good luck – by stealing it from everyone around them. Another Ailment will saddle your Sim with an uncontrollable urge to create, and another will have them feeling emotionally…nothing. Ailments may be caused by Imbalance, caught from ailing Sims, or inflicted through the meddling of a Fairy.

Craft Cures & Elixirs

Use new books and the Leafy Ledge Apothecary Table to build your Apothecary skill. Craft Cures for Ailments, Elixirs that affect the Needs or emotions of Sims, and even an Emotion Stone. There are 22 recipes total. Emotion Stones are limited-use items that can siphon emotions from Sims. Emotions can be a key ingredient for some recipes, and Fairy Sims can consume them to recharge their emotional energy. That energy will decay more slowly while a Fairy Sim has an Emotion Stone in their inventory.

Play the odds

Luck affects a Sim’s chances of getting positive outcomes when Crafting, Foraging, socializing with other Sims, and more.

Luck even plays a role in whether evil Gnomes will show up on your lot. You can check a Sim’s luck by looking at their Simology panel, and it can be changed in various ways like by asking Spruce Almighty for help or being the target of a Fairy’s Play with Luck ability.

You can turn off the Luck system via your in-game settings.

Enchantment

Explore a world in bloom

The Coast of Adhmor is a Celtic-inspired town with walkable streets, a giant gnome statue, and a lot of history. It’s the most down-to-earth of Innisgreen’s neighborhoods. Sprucederry Grove is a very nature-focused community, with a touch of the mystical thrown in. Everdew is a hotspot for Fairy activity where their powers are used openly and even the plants feel fantastical. The Mossveil Fairy Hub, a large mushroom, is located here. Explore to discover more enchanting surprises!

Meet fantastic new friends

Mother Nature can be summoned, and she can help Sims on their quests to become Fairies! There’s also a special Glaswood Tree statue that summons Spruce Almighty. This verdant fellow can help out around your lot or even improve a Sim’s luck.

You can get your own statue and place it on your lot to summon him more easily.
