San Sequoia

Uncategorized

The Greater San Sequoia area surrounds the bustling city just west of San Myshuno. San Sequoia began as a small fishing town, then became a hub of the fishing and canning industry due to the influence of local fisherman-turned-entrepreneur, Bayani Robles. The Robles family is still very much entrenched in the area even as it has expanded over time thanks to Gilbert Gilberts. Today, San Sequoia is home to cozy streets, a beautiful park with gardens, and quiet suburban neighborhoods. It’s the perfect place to raise a family!

Hopewell Hills

Hopewell Hills is a cozy spot away from the hustle and bustle of town. The perfect place for anyone who wants, well, space! If the suburbs are your idea of paradise, you’ve found it here in this quiet neighborhood. Discover the neighborhood here!

Gilbert Gardens

Gilbert Gardens’ gorgeous park was once owned by Gilbert Gilberts, a land developer who helped establish the area. Now, it’s the perfect locale for family trips to the gardens. Where, amongst other activities, Sims can take a walk on one of the three scenic lake walking paths or visit the community’s Splash Pad play area. Whalebert is hoping to see you soon! Stroll through the neighborhood here!

Anchorpoint Wharf

Once the center of a bustling fishing and canning industry, Anchorpoint Wharf is known now as a vibrant area downtown featuring a movie theater, parklets, and more. There’s plenty to keep all ages entertained. Explore the neighborhood here!

MEET THE TOWNIES OF SAN SEQUOIA

I’m undertaking a rather ambitious project: creating my own Townies for San Sequoia with San Francisco-inspired surnames. The world seems a bit empty to me, and so I will be creating households, ranging from multi-generational to single Sims. They are cc-free, have skills, careers, relationships, etc. When I’ve finished a household, I’ll add a ✔️. Households will be uploaded to The Gallery, but I’ll also have a link available to download (Google Drive) and their household bio on my Tumblr.

StrangerVille

Uncategorized

This desert town has gone through many changes, and after the “near cataclysmic event,” much of it needed to be rebuilt. Once home to only indigenous Sims, others were attracted to the beautiful landscape with its red rocks, enormous blue skies, and the desert air. According to the locals, Gregory Landgraab was one of those who saw potential in development and convinced both the indigenous population and SimNation’s leaders to include what is now known as StrangerVille into SimNation. By this point, it was nearly impossible to find a family tree that did not include both indigenous and immigrant in its branches, although a sizeable population still remains on original land north of town not part of SimNation and has little contact with anyone outside their world.

Route Simsty-Six connects StrangerVille with Oasis Springs and was once a busy route. Now that most Sims use the SRTS, the Old Route Simsty-Six is littered with abandoned motels, gas stations, and flop houses. The Plaza area is still under reconstruction after the “near cataclysmic event,” but townsfolk are hopeful it will be restored to its hey day. Someday.

Take a tour of StrangerVille Plaza and Shady Acres as you visit the different lots in this interesting community in the videos below. Even though the residents will tell visitors everything is “back to normal,” life is still a little strange in StrangerVille!

Staying Organized

Uncategorized

Part of what makes The Sims 4 fun for me is all the little details. Gardening. Collecting. Family trees. Worlds lore. Skills, Aspirations, Careers. I have a three-ring binder with printouts of guides and cheats. I also buy spiral notebooks with lined paper when there are back-to-school sales and use them. For me, handwriting something is better than typing it up in Word or Docs.

I thought I’d share some of my go-to and favorites with you to help improve your game play and enjoyment of The Sims 4.
