All of these are pretty handy, and the special effects as the Genie grants a wish are rather cool. These are pretty standard fare, like eternal happiness, youth, resurrecting Sims and even wishing for more wishes. However you get it, your Sim can clean the lamp to reveal the Genie and naturally, receive three wishes. The lamp can be obtained in a number of ways, but the easiest is to purchase it as a lifetime reward. He or she is blue and comes in a dusty old lamp. There are plenty of new items, from stage props to fun activity items like karaoke machines, DJ booths, mechanical bulls and more.Īs with many other expansion packs, Showtime adds a new playable monster race, the Genie. There are even a couple of new traits, like Diva, to make your Sims feel more like starlets. There’s not much for kids, but your adult Sims will look extra stylish or funky in their new outfits. There are also plenty of new outfits and a number of hairstyles for stars and plebs alike. They can even react to the show, including chucking a variety of interesting items onto stage. If you have a Sim that doesn’t quite have star potential, they can still watch shows that are happening. I found that my interference just made things worse for my performer! Other Sims will perform in your town from time to time, and there’s also the occasional SimFest where many performers can compete for the top honours. The reactions of the audience also help give you an indication of how you’re doing. You also have the option to control your Sim’s every move, or leave him to choose what to do next. As your Sim levels up, he can perform new tricks or songs, improving his chances of wowing an audience at the next gig.ĭuring gigs, you can choose to set up the stage as you like it, or use the default setup. With a little hard work, your Sim will be on his way to stardom in no time. For wannabe Singers, this includes delivering Sing-a-Grams to Sims around town for Acrobats, they need to level their athletic skill and for Magicians, they need to perform illusions. Some more exclusive venues might reject your Sim if he isn’t experienced enough yet, but by the time he gets to the top of his career path, they’ll be begging him to perform at their venues.īeyond that, each type of performer has more specific things that they can do to level up. All three can perform for tips to earn money and increase their job experience, as well as audition for gigs at the various venues in town. As it is a profession, you have direct control of your Sim at all times (except when you send him to a friend’s game using SimPort).
They are basically the same in terms of their mechanics. The main focus of this expansion pack is three new performance professions: Singer, Magician and Acrobat. There’s plenty on offer here, most of which has never really been included in any previous Sims expansion pack. The expansion also introduces a host of new online features that you may enjoy, as well as an achievement system to give you something more to work towards. The Sims 3 Showtime offers your Sims the chance to live out their dreams as performers on stage.
