Building the Hungerkunstler Cafe from Nancy Drew: Mystery of the Seven Keys in the Sims 4!!

[@pmahalan]

Great build! 💕 I'll never understand for the life of me why they put those lights in toddler stuff pack. It's like they said "here are these universally soft and gorgeous and adorable lights you'll see in literally every build, and that you'll really want to use yourself, but we're gonna put them behind a pay wall specifically in a pack about TODDLERS despite the fact that these lights have nothing to do with toddlers & even if you're someone who doesn't especially enjoy customizing or playing with toddlers".

@@pmahalan such a good point!

I love this I can't wait for more builds from Mystery of the seven keys and it would be a cute first date place with the new EP LOVESTRUCK that's out now

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@nerdygeekgamer5528 agreed!!

There’s a cafe right next to the antique shop that I work at, it’s a really nice place to go when I have a break- good food, WiFi that I can also use at the shop, and it gives off lots of Hungerkunstler vibes too! I usually get a Matcha latte with a dash of lavender there- I don’t like coffee, but it still gives me a nice boost of caffeine for my job!

@@dragonslayersworkshop8598 matcha lattes are elite!!

Back with more sims!! 🎉🎉

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@SouthernSleuth yes!! It's been a while!

[@SouthernSleuth]

@@WizardKittenYT I love the idea of people living in the apartments above and waking up to the smell of fresh coffee

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@SouthernSleuth that would be so dreamy!!

[@zeducator99]

My go to order at a cafe is an iced latte with oat milk and lavender syrup. So good 😊

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@zeducator99 that's my favorite spring order!! 💜

I’m so excited for a new Sims/ND build!!

Your recreation came out so beautiful! I'm glad to have another Sims build. It's such a relaxing and inspiring series, especially when you love a game or its soundtrack and need some new build ideas. My summer's shaped up to be very busy, and I've rediscovered Disney Dreamlight Valley, so I haven't played Keys yet, but maybe I will once we move into the fall. I was a cafe person when I was still a student and lived in a more city-like area (espressos and mochas/peppermint mochas are my coffees of choice!). It was a nice change of pace when I needed to focus on papers, but now that I'm out of school and have moved to a rural community, there just aren't as many options that are close to me now, but the one in my downtown area is nice to go to every now and then.

[@WizardKittenYT]

Thank you!! I'm so glad you like it! I always make a point to visit the local coffee shop when I go to a rural area and I'm usually impressed! It's just so nice to have something besides Caribou or Starbucks.

[@JoshuaMillhouse]

Awesome build! Great job, Caitlyn!

@@JoshuaMillhouse thank you!

I wish I was this talented at building in the sims! It looks amazing! I have replayed the game a few times and I find it only replayable as far as achievements are considered. In my opinion it’s not as replayable as other games. The puzzles are challenging enough that I’m not going to necessarily remember them, but because I have played it before they are less challenging than they were in the first playthrough. My biggest issue is the dialogue. I think the thing that is the least Nancy drew about these games really is the dialogue. There’s no variation. It’s all just storyline and you won’t hear other conversation options which is super unfortunate. Also, the alternate ending is far too hard to get. I think HeR desperately needs to work on replayablility because that’s a huge issue right now, in my opinion. I love vanilla lattès. ☺️ I’m also a pumpkin spice girl. 💅

[@WizardKittenYT]

@terrikoop416 you described that so well and I totally agree!! If the story doesn't hold up, it's a lot harder to enjoy on replays! I can't wait to get my hands on a PSL!!!

[@ClueGirl41]

Absolutely stunning!!! I'm always in awe of your builds. Your attention to detail while also making adjustments. Love watching your builds

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@ClueGirl41 thank you!! I'm so glad you liked it!

[@gabrielplays3065]

I love it it looks just like it!!!

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@gabrielplays3065 thank you!!

[@RoseBaggins]

Yay!! It has been a while since you did a Sims build!! It looks great!! And yes, finding the exact things in Sins is awesome!! I haven't played the game yet because I ordered a physical copy, just waiting for it to ship.

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@RoseBaggins yes, it's been so long!! I'm so glad you like it!

[@nghtblm]

This is beautiful! I love all the details and it's amazing! I just found your channel after playing 7 Keys and have been really enjoying your content the Sims4 builds are so creative

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@nghtblm thank you so much!! Welcome to the channel! 🤗

[@katherinelennon668]

This looks awesome! How do you get the proportions right of the building?? It seems so complicated yet you just whip it out. I don't really play sims so maybe it's easier than it looks. But I'd have absolutely no idea where to begin with sizing a building to be proportional to a space in ND

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@katherinelennon668 it definitely gets easier with practice! I have a pretty good idea now of how many objects need to fit in a space, so I roughly estimate based on that and then adjust as needed!

[@GraemeCree]

I still haven't played Seven Keys because the physical copies haven't shipped yet. And I'm still quite annoyed that they tried to get us to buy the game twice, by not telling people whether or not there was going to *be* a physical copy until after people had figured there probably wouldn't be one, and gone ahead and bought the download. Fortunately, we delayed buying it long enough to not get stuck paying twice, but I'll bet most people who bought the physical copy didn't. But since you don't get a download with the physical copy, and since the physical copies weren't ready anywhere near the release date, and still aren't, this experience is another black eye for Her's reputation, I'm afraid. Not as bad as the shenanigans over MID, but bad enough.

[@WizardKittenYT]

@@GraemeCree I'm kind of surprised the physical copies haven't shipped yet!
