The Sims 3: Island Paradise

This expansion pack delivers the long-standing tradition of the Sims franchise, allowing players to express their own creativity and make their own decisions. The expansion gives players new areas to explore, but the core mechanics of the game remain unchanged.

Although players can do whatever they want in this game, in order to succeed, they need to successfully get a job, multitask, and forge complex social interactions. To keep the Sims healthy, players will need to apply themselves and focus their attention to details.

This expansion pack does not include any new sexual content. In the base game, however, Sims can have both heterosexual and same-sex relationships and can be seen jumping under the sheets in bed to make "woohoo" (the game's term) -- which is accompanied by groans and giggles.

This is an expansion pack that does nothing more than add new items to the base game, which you have to own to play this add-on. Players are encouraged to continue buying additional expansion packs and items, thereby growing The Sims 3 franchise.
