Sims 3 World Adventures Review

The Sims 3 World Adventures is the first expansion pack for the strategic life simulation computer game The Sims 3. It was announced on The Sims 3 website in August 2009, and had a North American release on November 18, 2009.

The expansion pack focuses on traveling to various areas as The Sims: Vacation and The Sims 2: Bon Voyage did previously, but in a new twist players can take their Sims on Indiana Jones-inspired adventures in the lost tombs of Egypt or a simple family vacation in France for sightseeing.

At these new Sim-inspired destinations found in Egypt, France and China and more available as a free download, Sims can meet Sims of different nationalities, hunt for treasure, and learn new skills.
