The Sims: Makin' Magic adds an "All-New Magic Town" into the mix. By upgrading your original Sims game with the Makin' Magic expansion pack you have an all new area to explore outside of the neighborhood. You can get to Magic Town by simply jumping in the hole that the magic man has left for you. Once you jump into the hole there will be a few different areas to choose from; take your pick they are all unique.

There are over 175 new items that Makin' Magic has to offer. Some of them can only be used in Magic Town, but others may be used in your own home. Magic Town provides roller coasters, magic shows, venders, and many other spooky attractions. When your Sim uses these items their fun level increases. At your home you have your very own spell book and wand so that you can practice your magic for upcoming duels. Be careful with the magic though because a novice can hurt themselves or others when playing around with something they do not understand.

The Sims: Makin' Magic expansion pack is a fun, silly addition to your Sim lifestyle. Buy it when the original version starts to feel dull and tarnished, it will be just the thing to spruce it up. Your Sim's will learn new expressions, take on new appearances, and gain access to an all new wardrobe. Just don't expect it to feel like a whole new game, it's just an extension to the old one.

Makin' Magic is not the best expansion pack that is offered, but it has it's charms. It just depends on your own personal taste which expansion pack is right for you. However, if you are a fan of the Sim world I would recommend the entire collection. There isn't anything that is too good for your Sims.
