A fan of The Sims 4 managed to perfectly capture and reflect the atmosphere of living on a tropical island by building an adorable houseboat.
A fan of The Sims 4 might’ve created the perfect home for the game’s Sulani map – a houseboat that peacefully resides on the coast of one of the islands. It’s quite common for The Sims 4 players to create adorable houses that not only serve the purpose of being homes for in-game characters but also look as if they emerged straight from a fairy tale.
One of the recent examples of a charmingly magical build in The Sims 4 is a Studio Ghibli-inspired tiny house constructed in the game by a different fan. It turned out to be so majestic that the creator was praised by developers for such a perfect rendition of Miyazaki’s animation style. It’s not an exact copy of any particular house that was present in the Japanese master’s cartoons, but rather a general representation of Studio Ghibli’s design approach. Additionally, the build has small details that add to the overall enchanting atmosphere.
A lovely build that fits its environment well has been introduced by a Reddit user named fluffy79g on The Sims 4 subreddit in the form of a compact yet thoroughly designed houseboat. The build resides on an island’s coast located in one of the most beautiful game maps, Sulani. It is a gorgeous tropical archipelago that was added to The Sims 4 three years ago with the Island Living expansion pack. While the house is indeed tiny, it still provides all the crucial activities for a sim that is about to live a dream life in paradise. The process of building the houseboat is showcased in a dedicated video by fab flubs on YouTube. On top of that, the creator promised to share a download link, which will come in handy since Reddit users have already requested the project on The Sims 4 Gallery.
Although The Sims 4 looks like a harmless cartoonish world, the game can be turned into a nightmare with enough dedication. One ingenious player decided to create a toilet-shaped house in The Sims 4 for the sole purpose of utilizing it as a deadly trap for in-game characters. According to the provided images, the unlikely trap works as intended, as at least one sim drowned in the toilet’s massive swimming pool bowl.
While fluffy79g’s houseboat is a small, relatively simple project – unlike the massive mansions that seem to be the focus of The Sims 4 building guides – it looks amazing. The main reason for that is attention to detail that turns the simple idea into a gorgeously designed structure. The surrounding environment also makes an indirect contribution to the overall beauty of the build, since it’s more advantageous to create a lovely houseboat on a tropical island rather than in a busy town’s harbor.
