FreeTime is the seventh expansion pack in the PC game series.

There is no article or information available anywhere on the internet which supports either the "gender-changer aspiration reward" or "the Madusa being the new creature."

A flyer included in Bon Voyage expansion pack said: "Now your Sims can enjoy hobbies! Your Sims will have fun taking up a variety of creative, intellectual, or active leisure-time pursuits. They can even meet Sims that share their interests and expand their social relationships. Develop your Sims' skills while they pursue their true pastime passions. Will your Sims stumble reaching for new goals or find a new sense of fulfillment?"

  • Sims now have a wide range of new activity types, which are divided into ten groups - Cuisine, Film and Literature, Games, Tinkering, Science, Arts and Crafts, Sport, Nature, Fitness and 'Music and Dance'.
  • Completing hobbies offer lifetime rewards. As Sims master activities they will unlock new aspirations, earn rewards, and uncover secret lots.
  • Once Sims build up their skills, they can sell their arts and crafts or enter them into competitions for dance, food, and video game contests.
  • There will be a new Lifetime Aspiration bar, which fills when major goal in a Sim's life is fulfilled (e.g., marriage). Goals depend on the Sim's aspiration. Points earned from these goals can be spent on benefits, such as the ability to not get fired, slower motive decay, and even the ability to have a second aspiration. Some benefits also depend on the Sim's aspiration.
  • New group activities lets Sims spend time with family and friends. There are new special activities for kids and toddlers.
  • Hobbies can have unexpected moments, especially for Sims with low skill levels. Beginner Sims might sew a bear with one eye, make a lopsided jar on the pottery wheel, or even get poison ivy while hiking.
  • The 'Grilled Cheese' aspiration will be unlockable and selectable.
  • The new life state (and creature NPC) is a genie, however, it won't be selectable. It is delivered in a lamp by a gypsy, which randomly appears, and grants three wishes to its 'master'.
  • There are five new careers with their respective rewards - Oceanography (Koi Pond), Entertainment (Star of Fame), Architecture (Drafting Table), Dance (Ballet Barre) and Intelligence (Audio Augmenter Earpiece).
  • A new neighbourhood, Desiderata Valley, will be added.
