Description

Explore an All-New World – Discover the Magic of Hidden Springs Today!

Celebrities and the rich flock to Hidden Springs in search of relaxation and escape from the mundane. Many cannot resist rumors of the seemingly miraculous healing powers that linger in the woods and waters. Some of the townsfolk who live in the woods are highly secretive and seem to have a pale green tinge to them. Is it really magic at work?

All-New Gameplay Object The Fountain of Youth is available exclusively with Hidden Springs and allows you to expand your game with all-new gameplay benefits. Will your Sims choose to become forever young?

Backstory

Save Our Princess!

Our princess has gone missing and we need your help! She probably snuck out again at night in search of that fabled Fountain of Youth. Apparently, it’ll make you younger, but I say it’s complete nonsense. I keep telling her these fairy tales don’t exist, yet she just won’t listen to me!

Worse yet, my son Sebastian has been obsessed with finding her and he’s becoming less interested in upholding our family values. This isn’t how our little prince is supposed to behave! How can we possibly win the respect of the citizens of Hidden Springs if our children keep getting into trouble?

Please do what it takes to find our princess. I can’t bear to witness the great Vanderburg family name be sullied any further.

-- Catarina Vanderburg, Queen of Hidden Springs

Overview

When you're in Hidden Springs, you can explore a stunning lakefront, relax at a luxury spa or ski lodge, escape into the woods, or even uncover ancient mysteries at the Museum of Magic and Supernatural. What will you find in Hidden Springs?

Hidden Springs has some references to the fairy tale Cinderella: The royalty of the neighborhood, the Vanderburg family is trying to get their "prince," Sebastian married. Lonnie Pertridge has a fondest wish to marry her daughters, Eunice and Astrid to the "prince," and they mistreat Ella Carlisle, Lonnie's step-daughter, who is obliged to perform domestic roles. Following Cinderella story, the "prince" would end up marrying Ella Carlisle and despise Lonnie, Eunice and Astrid. The players are, however, free to choose their fate.

Hidden Springs is the richest neighborhood in The Sims 3. The richest household from other neighborhoods have §75,000 in funds, apart from the Goldbeards from Barnacle Bay, who have 150,000 in household funds. Yet the richest household living in Hidden Springs has §175,000 in funds. This is the Vanderburg family who are known as the Royal Family. Hidden Springs is also the smallest town featured in The Sims 3, having 50 playable Sims, while Sunset Valley has 68.

Because of Hidden Springs mountain theme, most houses are made with wood. The richest households have, however, their houses constructed with different materials.

The Fountain of Youth is supposedly an item that ships with Hidden Springs, however, it has been reported by players that the item is not placed in the town when loaded, or that the item is either too difficult to find. Therefore, the players have to place it themselves if they want to play with it.

Lunar Lakes has references to Hidden Springs, such as a park with Hidden Springs themed stuff. It also has a descendant from the Vanderburgs, Sofia Vanderburg, who, opposed to her monarchic ancestors, is anarchic.
