A new 2022 Update - with only 4 CC - is available now!
Some walls/floors may be from this bundle:
- The Lifestyle Build Bundle wallpapers/floors. (It's the second link in the top post - extracted from Lifestyle Stories by Argon/MATY) This 'bundle' lives back in my Bins folder so it doesn't have the CC star. If you ever enter one of my builds and find it has blank/unpapered walls/floors, it is because they are from this bundle and I didn't realize it. So, either substitute the wall/floor of your choice, or go get this bundle and re-install the lot (from your lot bin.)
Used, and not included: - go get them if you want them:
- TS2 Store - Oh Baby! items from GoS.
Custom Content Included:
- CarinalightStairs and RECs by Numenor & Chrissy/MTS2
- Steadfast Stairs Open Underneath by HugeLunatic(HL)/Sims2Artists
- SteadfastModularStairsCornerMESH by Spaik-Repo'd by HugeLunatic(HL)/Sims2Artists
- Steps of Style - mirrored by AnoeskaB/TSR
Lot Size: 3x3 (same as the original)
Lot Price (furnished): $168,277
Cat finally got her hands on Archimedes Arcade, and fixed it up like she wanted. So far all the reviews have been positive, so I thought I'd share. Did you know old-lady Crumple-butt is a Poker Diva? She stayed at the tables all night long the other night! *sheesh* Anyway, the newly revised floorplan offers up "more fun" for all ages, than ever before.
Looking at the floorplan below you can see the new Kiddo Kingdom Indoor Playground in the left side building (with the blue interior.) This is a great play place, especially when the weather is bad. It has all the accouterments your babies and toddlers will need (if you have a way to bring them to a Community lot!) and it offers a lot of things to keep your older kiddo's busy too.
The building along the back of the property houses the regular arcade games. There you will also find an Espresso counter, and the bathrooms (those seemed to need to go together!) LOL!
In the building at the front right corner, you will find a Game Store and the 'Back Room' Bar. Be sure to scroll through all the pictures above for more details on each of the different areas.
The second level floorplan picture (below) shows that the playground is a two-story area.
And, over the arcade/game room is where you'll find Mrs. C's beloved Poker Tables with a pool table over the bathrooms - and another bar. You can't have a poker game with out liquid refreshments now, can you?
The red area is the dance floor of the club over the 'Back Room' bar. That's right, up the spiral staircases in the back of the building is the entrance to the most happenin' Dance Club ever! The club is actually two stories - the second level of the club features an observation balcony with some comfy couches for those that are tired of dancing (yeah, that's it - tired of dancing. Heh!)
This level shows the observation/balcony of the dance club and a completely empty area over the top of the playground - feel free to add whatever more you want!
NOTE: A copy of this lot was playtested; however, no sim has ever set foot on the property you will download.
Necessary, and NOT included - GO get them:
An invisible floor - I recommend Frillen's Invisible Tile - you will probably need to invisify the mid-level floor in the playground area. It's easy to do - you just place a tile on the floor/ceiling and shift-click. TaDa - all gone floor tiles!
Numenor's Unlevel Wall - #90 (only necessary if walls are missing - it means I used the unlevel wall instead of "CFE" while building. If walls are missing, exit without saving and add Numenor's Unlevel Wall to your DL folder before loading this house again)
And, as always, I highly recommend:

- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.

About Me
I mostly "build" - houses, apartments, recreational, and community lots - but, I also create walls (and murals), floors, terrain paint, and various other recolors. And I've written a few tutorials too. :luff:
