I really like the vibes of this kit. It pairs well with the furniture and decor we got with the Werewolves pack and some of the decor and walls from City Living as well could work with it. I was pleased to see the auras on the objects. Also, the fact that the TV flickers and has bad reception when on is so cool!

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Omg yass Sabrina it really does pair well with werewolves, and I'm a big fan of the emotional aura objects and that some of the objects are a little quirky :). Adds a point of difference that I really like.

[@dzianis6004]

A video about aura items can be a great idea!

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Ooh thank you Dzianis :), I'll try and get around to it eventually, that could definitely make for a fun video!

[@simbellaz]

The heart-shaped bed mattress (sims 1 throwback definately) and the stacked chairs is my favorite! Can't wait to build a basement - something I've never been so excited for to build till now😂

[@janniegurl05]

I wonder if it’s a error/oversight that the trunk doesn’t provide storage. 🤔 Doesn’t make sense that it’s in the storage section if it doesn’t have actual storage. I am excited about that little photo frame they provided us. Although I do think it would have been really awesome if they would’ve had one that we could add our own photos in it. 😀

[@reading1713]

Thanks for the overview Petey! This is my dream kit actually (aside from a goth CAS kit this is all I have ever wanted from the kits) I love the grungy feel, it really makes things feel lived in and well loved!

[@thisisfineeverythingisfine3051]

Ohhh, a goth style kit would be so good.

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Omg a Goth CAS kit would be so much fun! You have me wanting it now Reading haha.

[@OatsNCrafts]

I love the flirty basement heart bed vibes! Me and my boyfriend often hangout in his dad’s basement (that’s where he sleeps when visiting his dad) to have some privacy haha! Can’t wait to make teenage sims hide in the basement.

[@bripatrick]

Thanks for the overview! Love the storytelling opportunities these items will bring - like a sim squatting in an abandoned house or building, or a kids clubhouse or other meeting place made from “found” items (Get Together for making clubs & Eco Lifestyle for additional dumpster diving would make great pairings) I don’t buy all the kits like I do EPs and GPs, but this one I’ll be buying for sure.

[@thisisfineeverythingisfine3051]

I was so glad to see you'd a video up today, Petey 🙂. I'm having a challenging day, i.e. horrible day, and your videos always make me feel better xx

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Awe I am so glad this is fine, everything is fine. I hope your day improves and that things get better :).

[@HipHopOtaku]

This one features the exact mirror my grandparents had in their living room, and I am here for it!

[@sundiataSMITH]

I would be nice if the bed and broken television were fixable with a level 8 or higher handiness skill. The tv could get only 3 channels and maybe the bed would give an uncomfortable (bad back) moodlet if you slept in it for too long. Just some ideas but definitely missed opportunities here. Thanks for the video!!

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Sundiata, omg I totally agree that it would be great if you could assemble the bed and make the broken television work. I agree with you that there are some missed opportunities that could have been awesome for gameplay.

[@Klondike877]

The new plant is actually an item from the Sims 1.

[@feliciasantiago4345]

I’m gen x and this brings me life 😢😂❤

[@kmrazSilverSimmer73]

Me too! I had that phone and my grandparents totally had that console table tv.

[@stemwaffle]

Thanks, I have this kit, so it was kind of nice to just kind of see the pieces to get ideas.

[@caseyzimba9935]

I'm really not sure how to feel about this kit... On one hand, it reminds me of That 70s show, on the other, it looks like a haunted attic, and if I had a third hand, I'd say it reminds me to pay my bills 😐

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Omg Casey your comment made me laugh. It reminded me of That 70s Show as well! Omg such an iconic series. Lol at it reminding you to pay bills. I totally feel that as well.

[@tellysims]

It’s a bummer the floor model tv doesn’t actually work. I had one of those for the longest time and it’s nostalgic for me.

[@SimlikeitHot]

Well, it's supposed to be a busted tv...meaning it wouldn't work. But it would have been cool if it did.

[@slwrabbits]

We still use the wooden shell of ours as the stand for the modern television that actually works.

[@MegaCutie000]

Honestly, I'm getting this kit solely for the bookcase because I love it 😂

[@Wendyelise420]

Did no-one play Ts1?

[@robcatdashian7637]

ea: "a pleasing environment can put a Sim in the mood" sim: stressed😬

[@weasiesworks]

Thanks!

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Thank you so much for the support Louise! Very kind of you!

[@SageArdor]

I'd argue that this is the closest thing we've had to another gameplay kit since Bust the Dust, considering so many of the objects have Stressful auras. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure these objects are the only ones with such an aura.

[@justivy9999]

How do you make all the items show up in one place? I tried to filter it but I don't see the name of the basement Treasures kit. I would just like to know how you got them all to show up for you. Thank you

[@ravennevermore423]

Perfect for a rags to riches thing.

[@marleythewizard]

I wish those photoframes were functional

[@Emjay_____71]

ooooh

[@ThugaRhymes]

I would of bought this kit If that big wooden TV was workable because I used to have TV like that like 18 years ago but my TV was bigger and had design on the wood. No point for me to get this pack if a TV that comes with it doesn't work.

[@tomjohnson4922]

well I am disappointed. I was really hoping you could assemble the Heart bed depending on the handiness. If all it does it lay against a wall I think I'll pass.

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

Totally agree Tom that it would have been so awesome if the bed could be assembled!!

[@Chop7264]

Put children in there.

[@eclipses3131]

Me still buying the new 2 kits even when they treat their customers like 💩 with their game breaking “hot update”…. more like a hot mess

[@meeshwood918]

I feel like I'm alone in this, but this is absolutely not my vibe. I hate everything about this kit 🫣

[@PeteyPlaysIt]

That's ok meeshwood :), not everything is for everyone :).
