The Sims 4 Adventure Awaits Expansion Pack

Welcome, Simmers of all ages, to Gibbi Point: a new and wonderful world bursting with play, discovery, and adventure at every turn. 

Many, many years ago, before it was inhabited, a great wave rushed through Gibbi Point to create a lush and fertile landscape. It became home to Jellyfish, Glow Worms and Plumbirds; it’s also where the world’s largest geyser, unusual caves of crystal, and a bioluminescent bay were formed. But it was more than these unusual creatures and natural wonders that drew Sims from all over to Gibbi Point. 

Here, adventure can be found around every corner. Embrace the spirit of childhood and carry it in a bold, adventurous life. Meet new Sims, uncover quests and explore new sights. Discover Getaways like kid’s camp, fitness retreat or even a romantic contest. 

Gibbi Point is also the world in which we’re excited to introduce the new Getaway System with Custom Venues and Getaway Planner; expanded childhood content, including new sentiments and a playground builder; and new activities, traits, careers, objects, challenges and more. 

So, what do’ya say? Are you ready to explore The Sims 4 Adventure Awaits Expansion Pack and getaway to see exactly what you’ve been missing?!

1, 2, 3, Getaway!

Three thrilling new neighborhoods await you in Gibbi Point: Wanderwood Wilds is a leafy haven laced with forest trails, erupting geysers and a whisper of mystery; Crystal Valley is where sparkling rock formations ignite the imagination; and Jellyfish Junction is a waterfront wonderland with a glistening lagoon and locals who adore their jellyfish.

Every adventure-brimming neighborhood in Gibbi Point is anchored by its own unforgettable Getaway. Sims can fish in mountain streams and swap campfire stories at Camp Gibbi Gibbi in Wanderwood Wilds, recharge body and mind at Revive & Thrive in Jellyfish Junction, or spark romance at the cozy retreat of Love Highland in Crystal Valley. It’ll be hard to choose your Getaway, and even harder to leave.

Sims can also unwind at boardwalk festivals, grab the controller of a retro gaming console, catch butterflies, and accept quests from a curious local who may actually be the last surviving Large Plumbird to roam Gibbi Point.

For the Young and the Young at Heart

The magic of play begins in childhood! In Adventure Awaits, Child Sims can shape their personality and skills through Formative Moments, new Traits and evolving Childhood Sentiments that influence experiences well into adulthood. 

Let young Sims explore Papercraft, Archery, Diving and even Entomology, or build sprawling Modular Playgrounds to make adventure time even more thrilling. They can also enjoy classic games like Hide-and-Seek or Rock, Paper, Scissors, and take on challenges that build both confidence and connections.

If your Child Sim isn’t the Cool Kid on the Block–a new kid-focused aspiration in the pack– and they’re having trouble making friends, try an imaginary one. That’s right, chat, Imaginary Friends are here! Choose from four distinct dolls and four unique personalities, including Goofball, Creative, Competitive, and Evil. Each one will interact and bond with their Sim in their own special and possibly chaotic way. Caution: Evil friends do not come with extra smoke detectors.

For Adult Sims in Gibbi Point, wrinkles and grey hair may be optional, playtime, however, is not. And this place is full of adventures, thrills and new activities, like Kayaking, watersliding, and working out at the Fitness Center. For the truly outdoorsy, the new Park Worker career offers two paths—Camp Counselor and Park Ranger—perfect for keeping adventure alive year-round.

If You Build It, They Will Come

If the three established Getaways don’t fill your adventure cup, you can design your own and play by your own rules! With the new features Custom Venues and Getaway System, you can craft unique escapes for your Sims and their friends. Getaways can last a day or more and be anything from restful to challenging. Schedule activities that’ll help your Sims recharge, and maybe meet new friends. You can even apply rules to your Getaway. For example, for those who love reality dating shows, Elimination Rules will have Sims competing to outlast each other. 

Build and decorate your unique Custom Venues however you want, decide what kinds of activities are available there, and share it to the Gallery for others to enjoy.

Imagine a beachfront lot that serves smoothies by day—yes, this pack has Blenders!—and transforms into a bustling dance club by night. Need some more inspiration for your perfect getaway? Check out the builds made by Simmers below in You Make The Sims!

And what’s a Getaway without an itinerary? With the Getaway Planner, you can mix and match activities, or test your Sims’ mettle with fitness challenges using the new Spin Bikes and Free Weights. Win or lose, the new Competitive trait will determine just how gracious, or salty, they are about the outcome. 

Ready to share the fun you’ve created? Upload your Custom Venue to the Gallery and help unlock the imagination of your fellow Simmers.

You Make The Sims

To show you just how far your imagination can get away in Gibbi Point, we teamed up with creators Jeyjeybink, daniellebuilds, Gryphi, KiwiSimsKate and Axiisims to build one-of-a-kind Lots and Getaway Systems for the pack. Their vision and creativity shine through the boardwalks, campsites, and family homes featured across the world.

Jeyjeybink, an Aussie mum and full-time content creator who can’t resist bringing her favorite movies and TV shows to life in the game, built the Love Highland Custom Venue in the Crystal Valley neighborhood. You can also find her Lot Whispering Waters Sanctuary in the Gallery on October 2nd. 

Nestled by the serene waters, Love Highland features a private dock, a luxurious hot tub, and numerous cozy nooks perfect for romantic evenings. Surrounded by nature, it offers an idyllic escape for intimate moments and peaceful relaxation. Opportunities for romance—and drama—abound!

“Knowing this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build lots for my favorite game added some serious pressure. It wasn’t just about making things look epic and unique, but also about creating lots that people can jump into, play with, and craft their own stories, all while having fun,” said Jeyjeybink. “The inground spa was a must-have for every build, it’s such a fun twist on the classic above-ground ones we usually see. I also love an epic fireplace moment, so in my romantic getaway lot, the build literally revolves around a massive fireplace pillar.”

Danielle, aka daniellebuilds, a content creator known for her variety of content including stop motion build videos, speed builds, and tutorials, designed the Jellyfish Jubilee Vacation Rental in Jellyfish Junction as well as Cryptid Creek Camp featured in the Gallery on October 2nd.

Situated in the heart of the bustling seaside neighborhood of Jellyfish Junction, this vacation rental offers vacationers modern comfort and easy access to local attractions and amenities. With its calming decor and star-gazing balcony, Jellyfish Jubilee is the perfect spot for an enjoyable and convenient stay in Gibbi Point.

“When building for Getaways, I think about how players will interact with the space differently than they would a permanent home,” said daniellebuilds. “I focused on creating memorable vacation moments – like scenic outdoor hangouts, activity spaces, and inviting communal areas while still keeping the layout functional for different families.”

Longtime Simmer Gryphi has built Custom Venue Camp Gibbi Gibbi in Wanderwood Wilds, Plumbird Park in Wanderwood Wilds and Fearful Fish Lounge in Crystal Valley. 

Camp Gibbi Gibbi offers stunning lake views and a sturdy dock; perfect for jumping into refreshing waters! With many exciting activities to engage in, Sims of all ages will create unforgettable adventures in the heart of nature.

“I never got to go to camp as a kid, so getting to create my dream camp in the game was so exciting; I cannot wait to bring my Sims there,” said Gryphi. “The oceans surrounding the world are beautiful and getting to build so close to them – and even partially on the water for Camp Gibbi Gibbi really helped to pull the builds together. I loved having the ability to add docks over the water with places to roast marshmallows or even go kayaking!”

KiwiSimsKate, who hails from Aotearoa New Zealand  (that's where the 'Kiwi' in the name comes from!)  built a total of three lots for the Expansion Pack: residential lot Miner’s Manse in Crystal Valley as well as the Revive and Thrive Retreat and Fletcher’s Cottage in Jellyfish Junction.

Overlooking the picturesque bay, Revive and Thrive Retreat provides a serene escape to recharge and rejuvenate. This home away from home features state-of-the-art fitness facilities and tranquil views for a truly refreshing experience.

“I wanted to create the kind of retreat space where your Sim might stumble across Nancy Landgraab next to them in spin class, or be saluting the sun with Judith Ward during the morning yoga routine,” said KiwiSimsKate. “While there are some rustic elements, I drew on inspiration from some of the private retreats you hear about celebrities visiting here in Aotearoa. It was also important to me to include height to the buildings to make the most of those sunrises and sunsets in this beautiful world - allowing your Sims to really unwind after a tough day of exercise. The glamping area, while still being a touch luxurious, allows your Sims to mix with nature, waking up to the sounds of the dawn chorus and a quiet stroll around the trees.”

Axiisims, also known as Alexandra, built three residential lots across the neighborhoods; Seabreeze Scenic, Crystal Cottage, and Wanderwood Wonder.

Crystal Cottage is a sleek and modern house located in the historic mining town of Crystal Valley. It features a polished architectural design and a refreshing pool, seamlessly blending contemporary living with the area's rich heritage.

“I wanted each lot to have a welcoming and friendly feeling that makes them fun to play with, whether the style for some lots was a bit more rustic or for others more modern,” said Axiisims.  “Two of the houses I built were for pre-made families. But if I were to talk about the lot that is currently unoccupied, I would start the story with a young couple just starting out. After they save enough money, they can move into the modern house I made in the Crystal Valley area. When they’re ready, they might even think about having a child. That lot is perfect for a small family with a comfortable lifestyle.”
