It was the last expansion pack to be made for ''The Sims'', as ''[[The Sims 2]]'' was to be released in the following year. The main theme of the expansion pack - magic - would later be incorporated into ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life]]'', ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural]]'' and ''[[The Sims 34: ~~Supernatural~~Realm of Magic]].''. ==Game Features== The main feature of the expansion pack is the ability for ~~Sims~~[[Sim]]s to create [[magic charms]] and cast [[Spells (The Sims: Makin' Magic)\|spells]], which work much like cooking meals from a recipe book. Ingredients are added to a Sim's [[inventory]], from where they are used with the correct equipment to produce an item of food, or charge the Sim's magic wand with a spell, or produce a charm. These ingredients, which are many and varied, can be purchased in [[Magic Town]] or made at home with various machines and items that can be purchased. The ability to have a [[dragon]] as a pet was also introduced. Upon moving in a new family, the [[Mystery Man]] appears with a box which includes a wand, a spell book, the [[magic ingredients]] needed for the Toadification [[Spells (The Sims: Makin' Magic)#List of spells\|spell]], a wand charger (which also dispenses wands), 35 [[MagiCoins]], and a Hole In The Ground which provides easy access to [[Magic Town]]. ~~Casting~~Being ~~spells~~''caught'' ~~on non-magical Sims~~casting spells outside of Magic Town by non-magical Sims is met with a fine by the Mystery Man. However this is not the case in Magic Town, although the spells may backfire as the vast majority of Magic Town residents are equipped with their own wands. ===New NPCs=== Line 36 ⟶ 40: * [[Beehive]] * [[Butter churn]] * [[Cauldron]]s * ''[[A Hole in the Ground]]'' * [[~~Spinning~~A ~~Wheel~~Hole in the Ground]] * [[~~Gargoyle~~Spinning ~~Bench~~wheel]] * [[Craft-A-Gargoyle\|Gargoyle crafting bench]] * [[Spell ~~Books~~book]]s ===New neighborhoods=== Line 45 ⟶ 50: ===New building themes=== * Magic carnival * Tuscany * Spooky shingles and vines ===New currency=== * [[MagiCoins]] ==Features and Allusions to other Expansion Packs== * If ''[[The Sims: Unleashed\|Unleashed]]'' is installed, Sims can cast the "A Friend Indeed" spell, which will turn a [[pet]] into a human Sim. One of the ingredients, Pet Treats, is exclusive to ''Unleashed''. * If ''[[Superstar]]'' is installed, Sims can craft the "Price of Fame" charm which will give the user 4.5 [[Fame (career)\|fame]] stars. One of the ingredients, Black Roses, is exclusive to'' Superstar''. ==Cover features== Bella, Mortimer and Cassandra Goth with wands and a pet dragon are shown on the back of the North American box cover. Oddly, Cassandra is shown without glasses in the cover, and Bella's skin tone is lighter as is Cassandra's skin tone. ==Trivia== * This is the last pack in [[The Sims (series)\|''The Sims'' series]] to support Windows 95. On the 27th of February 2014, ''The Sims Studio'' plans a live broadcast of ''Makin' Magic'', possibly relating to ''[[The Sims 4]]'' This is the first pack to allow sims to live in a sub-neighbourhood. * A book sold at the [[Consignment store\|consignment store]] in ''[[The Sims 3]]'' is titled ''Makin' Magic'', which is clearly a reference to this pack. ==Gallery== <tabber> Screenshots= <gallery>▼ File:Thesimsinterface.jpg\|''The Sims: Makin' Magic'' gameplay Sims1makinmagicpic1.jpeg Sims1makinmagicpic2.jpeg Sims1makinmagic3.jpeg Sims1makinmagicpic4.jpeg Sims1makinmagicpic5.jpeg Sims1makinmagicpic6.jpeg </gallery>▼ \|-\| Videos= <gallery> ~~Video~~File:The Sims Makin Magic Official Video Trailer\|''The Sims: Makin' Magic'' ~~Official~~official ~~Video Trailer~~trailer▼ File:Let's Play The Sims Makin Magic -- Producer Gameplay\|''The Sims: Makin' Magic'' producer gameplay </gallery> \|-\| Other= <gallery> File:SimPeople-MagicalDream-BoxArt.jpeg\|Japanese box art, where the expansion is called ''SimPeople: Magical Dream'' </gallery> </tabber> ==Media== Line 69 ⟶ 101: \|''The Sims: Makin' Magic'' Theme\|\|[[File:TS Makin Magic Load Screen Sample.ogg\|noicon]] \|} ~~===Video===~~ ▲<gallery> ▲Video:The Sims Makin Magic Official Video Trailer\|The Sims Makin Magic Official Video Trailer ▲</gallery> {{S-tsmm}} {{The Sims navigation}} {{Magic}} {{Sims\|state1=uncollapsed}} [[es:Los Sims: Magia Potagia]] [[fr:Les Sims: Abracadabra]] [[pl:The Sims: Abrakadabra]] [[ru:The Sims: Makin' Magic]] [[Category:Makin' Magic\| ]] [[Category:Games\|Makin' Magic, The Sims]] [[Category:Expansion packs\|Makin' Magic, The Sims]] [[Category:The Sims\|Makin' Magic]]
