===Seasons===
The new life state introduced in the Expansion Pack is [[Bigfoot]]. Bigfoot lives in the [[Hidden Burrow]], a [[Secret lot#The Sims 2: Bon Voyage|secret lot]] located in [[Three Lakes]]. Sims must have a secret map to find the Hidden Burrow and Bigfoot. A Bigfoot can be made playable by befriending them and proposing them to move in. Then, another Bigfoot will take over the Hidden Burrow. Bigfoots have already mastered all [[skill]]s and [[talent badge]]s. They can't do any romantic interactions, so Bigfoots cannot have [[Romance]], [[Family]], or [[Pleasure]] [[Aspiration]]s.
{{Main|Weather}}
Season is now the part of gameplay. Seasons can be set individually for each neighborhood from [[Season Chooser]]. The Season Chooser determines what seasons is allowed to be present in the neighborhood. There are 4 seasons; [[Spring]], [[Summer]], [[Fall]], and [[Winter]]. Each season has its own benefit and uniqueness, nourishing the gameplay and storyline.

===Weather===
Weather adds more realism as an occurrence of [[precipitation]]. Weather also determines whether the outdoor is cool, warm, too hot, or too cold. The precipitation also occurs unpredictably, making every day is not the same day. Is it safe enough to play when there's no hail outside, or are the crops not overwatered by the recent rainstorms; all is controlled by the weather. Sims can check the weather forecasting from TV or newspaper. When the weather is too cold, Sims wear new type of clothes, [[Winterwear]].

===Temperature===
There are 2 kinds of [[temperature]]; Sims' internal temperature and outdoor temperature. The outdoor temperature controls how fast Sims' internal temperature will change whether they are doing interactions or not. Unlike outdoor temperature, Sim internal temperature is different from each Sim. Sims who are too cold from playing [[snow]] can get freezing and Sims who are too hot from drinking hot chocolate in the middle of the Summer can get [[sunburn]] and heatstroke.

===Gardening===
Sims can now do real [[gardening]]. Fertilize plots, plant crops, water plants, tend garden, and finally, harvest the fruit. Gardening no longer only pulling the weeds and cutting the hedges. Gardening is also a way to earn money. As a reward of the hard work, Sims may join the [[Garden Club]] and earn the benefits. Harvested fruit can also be sold out or made [[juices]].

===Fishing===
With ''Seasons'', ponds are now stocked with fish. Sims can [[Fishing|fish]] if the pond is big and deep enough, and the slope isn't too steep. Sims also gain Fishing [[Talent badge|Talent Badge]] when they fish long enough. Fish can be cooked, grilled, stocked in the fridge, or hung on the wall.

===PlantSim===
{{Main|PlantSim}}
The new life state introduced in the Expansion Pack is PlantSim. PlantSim is half-Sim and half-plant. As PlantSims, Sims require water, sunlight, and love as their [[Motive (PlantSim)|needs]]. PlantSim is a gardening master, making them acquire Gold Gardening Badge. They can talk to plants, respectively. PlantSim can spawn spore baby instead of being pregnant and give birth a normal baby. Spawned PlantBaby will eventually grow up into PlantSim.

Transform them from bumbling tourists to savvy international travelers as they learn new customs including local greetings, dances and more to take home and teach to their friends. Send Sims packing for the trip of a lifetime!

Vacation Destination

The Sims 2: Bon Voyage features Vacation Destination, a new Sub-Neighborhood where Sims will visit to spend their vacation. There are three types of vacation destination, i.e. Far East, Tropical, and Mountain. Each destination has special attributes and its own attractions. These include the environment, locals, tours, and so on. Some special features can only be found in certain Vacation Destination, such as Ninjas that can be found in Far East and Beach, as the main attraction of Tropical vacation.

New Features

Bigfoot

Main article: Bigfoot

The new life state introduced in the Expansion Pack is Bigfoot. Bigfoot lives in the Hidden Burrow, a secret lot located in Three Lakes. Sims must have a secret map to find the Hidden Burrow and Bigfoot. A Bigfoot can be made playable by befriending them and proposing them to move in. Then, another Bigfoot will take over the Hidden Burrow. Bigfoots have already mastered all skills and talent badges.

New Build Mode Additions

  • Roof

Roof is now a crucial element as part of weather and climate changes. From now, "Indoor Space" is defined not only a room covered by walls, but there also must be roof. Being in a closed indoor will keep Sims away from cold temperature. Roof keeps the elements out, so rain and snow won't get inside house.

Any one-tile objects can now be placed on the roof. Anything; sculptures, chairs, flamingos, end tables, and even arcade machines. With this, decorative roof objects such as weather vane, lightning rod, and solar screen[TS2:MGS] can make a nice additions to the roof.
