4.0 out of 5 stars ...and it's got BIGGER PRINT!, December 9, 2009

The PROs:
- The guide is well laid out and easy to use.
- Although it doesn't have an index, the Table of Contents is fairly comprehensive, so it is easy to find what you are looking for.
- I enjoy the author's style and dry sense of humor.
- Unlike the first Sims 3 game guide, this one is in Large format, and the print is MUCH EASIER for these old eyes to read! They also got rid of the green background in the Tip Boxes, making those actually readable!

The CONs:
- Just a minor quibble (and yes, I know I'm being picky!) - There are still a few questions I couldn't find the answer to. (Such as "What happens if My Sim sleeps in a mummy case?" Or "I know Nectar should be stored in a basement...but does it make a difference what level? For example, since you can go down four levels in a basement, is nectar stored in the lowest level basement better than that stored in one of the upper level basements?)

Over all, a very helpful addition to my Sims Prima Game Guide library.

This is a pretty helpful game guide. There were certain parts of the game where I was not able to find items in one of the vacation spots. This guide shows you the layout of the floor and everything on that floor. However it can get a little difficult to spot where any the hidden traps are using the guide.

Ever since the first sims game came out I bought these guide books. They always tell you info you can't even find on the internet! I love how the guide is very detailed and gives you specifics on what it's telling you about. The book was in fantastic condition and it arrived on my doorstep within a few days of the order! The cheap price is worth every penny!
