The Sims 4: Enchanted by Nature Reviews
The two halves make for a whole that may have an amount of 'content' on par with other expansion packs, but that whole feels less than the sum of its parts.
The latest Sims 4 expansion is worth obsessing over.
Though it may not appeal much to players who don’t care about occults, The Sims 4 Enchanted by Nature is much more than that: it opens up a lot of new avenues for design and overall storytelling in an absolutely enchanting world.
The Sims 4: Enchanted by Nature is a charming and content-rich addition that brings the fantasy genre into a grounded, eco-friendly light. It doesn’t try to reinvent the game, but rather deepens it with new systems that encourage exploration, creativity, and storytelling. Whether you’re a builder, a legacy player, or someone who just wants to give their Sim a pet hedgehog made of moss (true story), there’s something in these woods for you. Is it for everyone? Probably not. If you prefer high-tech careers, fast city life, or ultra-modern aesthetics, you might find the flower crowns and crystal groves a bit too “woo-woo.” But for players who enjoy fantasy, natural beauty, and slow-paced immersion, this DLC is a woodland dream come true. So go ahead, grab your hiking boots, stock up on acorn tea, and prepare to get lost (in a good way). Nature has never felt so enchanting. The Sims 4: Enchanted by Nature gets the Thumb Culture Platinum Award!
The Sims 4: Betoverende Natuur delivers enchanting occult gameplay and stunning fairies, but its nature theme feels half-baked; great for fantasy fans, less so for players seeking a true nature experience.
