    One of the first things I did was head over to the ocean and pee in it with a dedicated button.

    The perfect oasis of escapism for me. The news is a nightmare, I always have real-life responsibilities to worry about, and things can seem very dark. Island Living continues to flesh The Sims 4 out in the best ways, making it feel like a port in a storm. The Sims can be silly and over the top, but Island Living has succeeded at making a very believable form of escapism that is enjoyable and relaxing in all the right ways.

Compared to the predecessors Island expansion this does even worse than the others, offering little more than a few themed clothes and hairstyles and a very small collection of beach properties that allow you to use the few new gadgets like boats or swimming in the ocean.

    And you can become a mermaid. Which means that you look like one, and that's it. I've come to expect no depth to expansions for this one, but this DLC lacks in quality AND quantity. There is absolutely nothing you can do, and you will read the word "relaxing" a lot in reviews. That is one way to put it. You can relax even more if you don't buy it.    … Full Review »
