Some have said that one of the Sims looks like Bella Goth. It's probably a coincidence, but I would love it!

Yes, that’s Bella Goth. Because of the 20th anniversary of The Sims in February - Romantic Garden update - she was at the Nightclub and we could get her outfit.

Wow! That's what I get for playing so sporatically.

The first videos are up. The update will be released on 10th August, the Island Event will start on 11th August (AEST).

Edit:
The event is meant to be a 10 days event.

A few thoughts:

1. Reminds me of the hated (by me at least) Sweet Treat Showdowns in Sims Mobile.
2. WOW, that’s a lot of SPs to buy chocolate or continue after losing a round
3. I wonder what advantage the offered Survival Pack gives.

All in all, I’m rather apprehensive about this thing, especially since it’s billed as Season 1

Is this really going to take 97 days?
If so they are nuts!

Indeed it looks pretty similar to the Sims Mobile event. I‘m not excited about that. The prizes don’t get my excitement either.

For sure the Firemonkeys don’t develop a completely new event for just one time. Usually new events look pretty complicated in the beginning but become doable after doing a few. We‘ll see.

The 97 days in the video are just a preview thing in the early access versions. The event is meant to last 10 days. I‘m going to add this info at my post with the video link :)

This sounds so complicated.

I don't watch TV, especially those reality TV competitions, and hate that the Monkeys keep making events inspired by competition TV shows.
