i built a *fairy castle* in the sims

[@lilsimsie]

(sorry about the black screen in the middle of the video! i'm fixing it, but it migh take a bit for youtube to update)

[@samanthazellers4620]

It's fixed right now :D

[@nathanneyland8871]

I'm honestly sad. I didn't see it.

[@Good_luck_.]

I don’t forgive you

[@misslauren33.]

The contrast of these comments lmao?? ^^^

[@luffyswaifu420]

the fact that they didnt test the windows on ROUND walls for a CASTLE pack is insane to me??

[@catsongbird4314]

Right

[@Pirates.27]

They are just hopeless at this point..

[@KM-ew3lt]

Such a missed opportunity!

[@Acide950]

To be slightly fair, having wide windows on towers was not a thing in the gothic era. Usually, those windows were very small on castles (think Alcázar of Segovia) to both defensive reasons and how hard making wide windows on a curve really is. The type of building with large windows in this era would be cathedrals, and whereas they would have very fancy windows even on curves, those windows would be very tall and skinny. Think Sainte-Chapelle (Paris). So only having the small windows work on rounded walls may be a nod to realism here. Still, kinda lame we got no rose windows in the pack. It isn't like we're overburdened with round windows in the sims 4.

[@hfjireh]

what do we even expect from the sims team 😵 they don’t test ANYTHING they put out properly

[@dyltalks]

If i had a nickel for every time kayla accidentally made mickey mouse in a build in the past month id have two nickels. Which isnt a lot but its weird that its happened twice

[@ariannebrodeur]

That were also castles for fantasy creatures lmao

[@THE_TWO_ANGELS_]

omg i literally made that joke today lmao

[@lazygurl305]

Are we talking about the mermaid house ? Lol

[@bananas2685]

Or a Texas shaped shell/ build

[@Marie-id9do]

As a Brit who's watched your videos for ages I still never get used to all the bathrooms 😂 whenever theres a small weird room I think "oh a fun hobby room!" and you immediately say 2nd/3rd bathroom lol That round space is PERFECT for an easel for a little painting studio, or getting a violin and making a music room! Even FILLING it with plants and having a reading nook ❤

[@raileyjones4691]

So upset that she didn't take this opportunity to put fireflies all over the lot, it would look so magical and fairy esche

[@ZarteSeele]

Great idea! I would have loved lots of plants on the inside. I mean, would a fairy just live in the middle of stone walls without any garden feeling?

[@generic_username_here1]

When the screen turned black I think it was just Simsie giving up on the build lol 💀

[@roddy6629]

Round walls tip: if you run into that problem where you place an object in a round area and then can't grab it again, change the walls view so that the walls are completely down/hidden. It'll work again that way.

[@galacticvampire5308]

New reason I want fairies: CAN YOU IMAGE HOW CUTE THE BASINET WOULD BE!?

[@thebaddriver6605]

I LIVE for when they add new Bassinets. It makes me WAYY too excited

[@greyscaleanon7551]

Downside: The only changing tables are with Growing Together and NONE of them fit any of the vibes of the various occult bassinets.

[@mellow_mallow]

​@@greyscaleanon7551 we need more changing tables... imagine a fun roughshod wooden Werewolf changing table!! Super baroque vampire table. High tech mysterious automated alien changing table. I should ask EA to hire me actually bc I can picture these so clearly in my mind...

[@EvelyntheG]

Now let’s hope they add a fairy 🧚 pack

[@Tsuki_St4r]

They probably will

[@louis2879]

@saturn_the_fairyas a fairy?

[@tord4336]

You known what, screw fairy's. Give me a Goblin pack.

[@pattimorton5189]

Hehehe.... The Sims use Kayla! Even though innocent. Sims get a lot of Ideas off her channel I’m sure! We all know we have! lilsimsie doesn’t know it but they use her for free advertising and have made a ton of money! I’m a Canadian and I’ve spent 100’s on packs because I liked what I seen with in her builds! We pay 60$ for a game pack! 14.99 and then 6.99! For what sometimes she says is too expensive! Hah! Go Kayla Go! They otta give her a cut! I’m just on console!

[@hanpear]

i really hope they do a fairy game pack with a very castle/fantasy themed vibe. i haven’t played with any occult sims but that would get me into it

[@Yumidithy]

The black screen scared me so much- it’s probably just an editing error but it’s so funny how i literally flinched.

[@melimelmel1333]

lmao I thought my phone died XD

It probably was Kayla admitting there's a fairy pack coming but EA made her delete the clip /s

BS, didn't turn black

[@eview1827]

I feel like one of those round rooms would make a great cauldron room

[@plushdragonteddy]

simsie did do that once with a witchy build! i think it was her most recent rebuild of the magic school in the witchcraft pack?

[@masonhightower763]

The split second where this was going to be a 1 bedroom 3 bathroom house was the funniest moment of my day.

[@huhbear]

The small windows on the round walls are sooo cute and actually historically accurate for European castles!

[@crowsinaboat]

To be fair, in one of my uni classes, the auditorium was so old some ivy branches *did* break through 😂 I got emotionally invested in a little guy I saw grow throughout the years... then they cut it all down 😞

[@LivinInSim]

Gives a whole new layer to the Ivy League...

[@PeaceNLoveNRockNRoll88]

Great, I'm now sad for a little ivy branch I never even saw 😢😆 RIP Lil' Ivy

[@KittyCat260]

Ivy is incredibly destructive to buildings (as is evidenced by it breaking through) so unfortunately sometimes cutting it all down is the only option to stop your whole building coming down. Unchecked ivy can cause structural damage as well as aesthetic/surface damage. You especially don't want that happening if the building is old and potentially historic architecture 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@maratusart6583]

I feel like this is like a contemporary castle renovation lmao. Like a rich person who really loves castles and wanted to honor the castle vibes but still make it like a nice homey livable house. And who is also a fairy

[@TabbyeLynne]

I love how the source of all her stress is the fact that the build is too small so there's no space for anything without trying to use the circular rooms but not once did Kayla think about make it bigger or getting rid of the towers 😂😂😂😂

[@kerilynnbarnard9977]

Yessss I was just thinking that she’s so comfy with small builds which is great but big castles need extra space. I’m the opposite I’m so quick to add more tiles to my builds haha

[@jessicaloveshiking]

12:00 I think basement kitchen would have banged to free up space to have a formal castle entry way

[@Amanda-gz9wh]

Okay, they might not tell Simsie about new packs, but she’s so good at manifesting these things in videos like this, so watch us get fairies later this year 🧚💚

[@lmaolmaolmao69]

The wall behind the bed, use a half wall and then fill the room with flowers ❤

[@ilumivato222]

Okay, but the landscape?? I’m speechless, you did it so well!!

[@frannicolas1939]

guys calm down she just gave us time to reflect at 12:35 on the shape of the building

[@hyrasbigfunhouse6763]

every time kayla uses circular walls the building turns to mickey mouse

[@merchantfan]

she can't help it, girl's from Florida

[@sirgaykrovos]

it's perfect 😍 although I think the only things is missing is the Wishing Well

[@AviDragonLady]

There are castles with stairs on the outside, if that helps for later tower builds.

[@gr33ngirlsea]

That sounds terrifying!

[@AviDragonLady]

@@gr33ngirlsea Medieval people were not well-known for safety🤣

[@qwinlyn]

Tips for the vines: Mix and match the different colours together so that it looks purposeful that there's a bunch of different shades of green, this is kinda required if you wanna use multiple packs cause gods forbid EA reuses a colour. Also, don't be afraid to size them down a bunch and layer them on top of each other. Basically do what Kayla was doing but a bit more and it'll fix the "it's all the same thing a dozen times" issue she mentioned.

[@PinkyJapan]

Kayla: I cannot stress this enough, fairies are NOT coming. The rest of us: Sure they aren’t. 😏

[@leepaulse893]

I say we do another community vote and get the Sims team to give us spiral staircases for the round walls. I'm surprised they didn't think of that for the castle kit, because most fantasy castles have spiral staircases.

[@jkmacrunnel]

For the floors, I think the stone with lots of random mismatched rugs everywhere would look great!

[@geo.k.8800]

black screen at 12:36 simsie! 💗

[@kalleido]

oh i thought it was just me😭

[@jeckersell5055]

i love her whimsical fairytale type builds they always come out so stunning.

[@jessreyn_]

I’m so so so excited!! Now we just need fairies!!

[@RoyalRadiantJade]

The saddest thing sims4 did to the supernatural pack was split up all the super naturals into their own individual pack 🥺 I loved being a fairy in sims 3 . 😅 manifesting Fairies! Sometime soon.. I hope. Still great themed build. I prefer the customization part of sims only because I can’t do architecture on sims despite it aligning with my day job 😂 so watching others build really helps. 😅

[@jocelyn4476]

i know we have done vlads so many times but he really deserves that gothic castle im so excited about this kit

[@kacieleasearle]

this is cute ! i was hoping you’d put a fairy circle of mushrooms in the exterior that would’ve been so cool but your landscaping was soo cute !

[@bizarrekimten]

THISSSSS. This kit should have been included in a larger pack!!!! Like another fantasy themed pack.

[@kalleido]

I'm in my bed rn choosing what video im gonna watch before i go to sleep and I WAS ABOUT TO REWATCH YOUR OTHER VIDEO but then i saw your new video notif and i clicked it so fast bc i remember you said you're going to build a castle!!😭 so excitedd

You went to bed as I got off work 😂 helllooooo from the other side of the planet

[@thebaddriver6605]

If you're struggling to find Kayla content, you probably already know, but she has a second channel "moresimsie" and a twitch channel. It's really helpful for when you're waiting for her to upload 🧡

So beautiful! I'm Welsh and it reminds me so much of Castell Coch

[@crispymojo8751]

I actually really like the round rooms and nooks. 🧚‍♀️

[@amye1908]

been waiting for this kind of build 😍 as soon as i saw this swatch i knew 😂

[@anakatarinesantos672]

No fairies? No problem! I'll make a witch/wizard that draws their power from Nature, does potions and wears earthy clothing. They'll live in this castle!

[@mandiimoo642]

Kayla! Put the walls down when you're working on round rooms. It helps a lot.

[@faeriescottage]

i’m absolutely obsessed with the exterior kayla!!!

[@greisly8114]

As a fan of techwear fashion i LOVE that EA start exploring the theme of buckles, harnesses, and a bunch of strings, like laces, mesh zippers things like that.... except goth is not exactly my cup of tea. I would love them having more of the oversize streetwear/ techwear options.. or maybe a new similar to the sims 3 into the future vibe

[@kylasmith4496]

We definitely need a redo of Vlad’s house as a castle with this kit! Live your dark dreary bathroom dreams, Lilsimsie!!

[@wiggogYwrath]

this build is SO PRETTY!! i also watched you build the big castle on twitch and both ofthese builds are amazing! im so excited about this kit and what youve done with it

[@cas8768]

This build was so chaotic and for some reason really funny. I watch you everyday, but idk this video is so funny to me

[@lilithali8582]

For castles you want the kitchens in the basement

[@mcflurrybird]

I wish the curved walls worked better but i think you did such a good job placing and decorating 😍

[@brooklynelise5767]

The worst thing about castle builds in the sims is how a lot of them arent functional, no matter how many times I move the stairs and get rid of items my sims never can actually live there.

[@amyvaughan9409]

I love this type of build so much. I’ll be using this kit all the time!

[@MuirlySims]

The ivy clipping inside the castle is fine! Think of it like this: most castles nowadays are abandoned. This means that plants like ivy, which are no longer being trimmed, will grow inside. Plus, if you make a fairy castle, they're nature lovers, so they wouldn't mind if outdoor nature lived inside.

[@Morepanthers]

I love seeing your castle builds! I might use this next time I need a magical home ♥️

[@hatsunemitski880]

simsie building a fairy castle when pomu is graduating breaks my heart it's so pretty 😭

[@Frxggay]

[@alyalvarado1667]

You know the inside is rough because of the shape (tho honestly you pulled it better off than anyone else could tbh), but the outside of so so beautiful!!! It fits the fairy vibes perfectly and makes me want fairies even more!!!!

[@GamerGoddess0425]

This is absolutely beautiful so happy to see it built and completed was so excited when you said you were going to on your twitch!!❤

[@lily3323]

If there’s somthing lilsimsie is good at is building exteriors and landscaping, it looks so good!

[@Siimply.Jessica]

A lot of the roof ornaments and decorations specifically for the roof from get together and vampires and cottage of living would look great on most castles because for that small castle on the top that chunky weird fence used it looks too chunky for this type of castle. Get together has a roof ornament that's nice and slender but looks similar to the fence that you used on the roof in the beginning in the catalog the first swatch is black and it would give it a more delicate fairy look

[@sarajanelafleur8796]

Kayla, this build is so beautiful!! You're far too critical of your builds, especially when working with a challenge like rounded walls!

[@TheLastCowPlant]

I really love the new hair Simsie the more I see it, the more I like it on you!

[@Irisandstuff]

Hide the walls when using round walls! Makes placing and picking up things much easier!! ❤️ Still not perfect but definitely better

[@shannonhughes8488]

this pack should have been at LEAST a stuff pack but ideally a game pack. so disappointing because now we have this we won't actually get a fully fleshed out medieval themed pack 😢

[@twoalpackas]

you would think if they were going to give us round rooms, they would give us spiral staircases too. but this is the sims, so of course not lol

[@oceanmythjormundgandr3891]

[@brynn05]

i haven’t ever really played with rounded walls so idk if this would work but has anyone tried using round walls kind of as the outside but then building square rooms within them? kind of like how kayla blocks off rooms to just create an illusion from the outside? again the rounded walls might be too glitchy for that to be possible and it would require making builds slightly bigger on the outside but maybe it would work?

the pack has a lot of uses, imo. Sure, the obvious answer is castles and gothic manors. But the build tools also work well for churches, libraries, old government buildings, museums, mausoleums, and dilapidated ruins.

[@avocadoallison4414]

Kayla needs to make a Mickey Mouse shaped build on purpose one day

Ive been imagining you rebuilding the goth house with this kit and vampires. Not exclusively those kits but i think itll be a good build.

[@amelie786]

First of all: great castle. Second of all: does anyone else think it would be so fun if she built castles and cottages and houses from fantasy novels like Aelins castle in Throne Of Glass or the town house in A Court Of Mist And Fury?! It would be SO cool to see them come alive in one of her builds tbh.

[@jackmoor1642]

okay 1 I’m inspired to now make my own version of this! 2 there was no need to worry about the leaf clipping, it’s an over grown planty fairy castle it kinda made sense leaves would get through the bricks to me lol

[@justjake9469]

Awesome! I think the stuco wallpaper would fit the castle wallpaper very well.

[@javier-mk1yk]

why is watching her sims videos more fun than actually playing the sims..

[@gr33ngirlsea]

Same! Maybe because she's an expert?

[@SharkBagel]

I have a theory. I think that EA watches Kayla's vids and every single time she has a disclaimer that this pack isn't happening and it's all pretend, they go ahead and make the pack just to spite her.

It's also like you can't furnish a castle without castle things. 😅 my main problem with the pack was that it was just a pack. You build a castle...now what? There aren't clothes or even furniture that fit the castle theme.

[@roseredfire48]

I love this Castle, so cute. I think you did a great job. I am looking forward to that BIG Castle.
