I have a theory: the grim reaper saying "do you want to go on an adventure" could of been an unused popup supposed to be said by a broken NPC that defaulted to Grim
Personally a fan of the theory that Adventureland takes place in the future. Sunset Valley has long since been abandoned by it's inhabitants, and no one is quite sure why--even the name of the town has been lost to time. And yet, curiously, the town remains untouched and undisturbed. Adventurers Jack and Sally intend to go find out exactly what happened to the townies of Adventureland.
@Emily Hawz it’s because it was so random. The players that have played since the game first came out and played world adventure when it first came out. It was never there. I honestly didn’t think much about it when it first popped up in my game. I thought it was a cc glitch of some kind. But after watching this it’s really weird and creepy. I’ve been playing Sims 3 since it came out. It was not there until recently for me. Hope that made since for your question. 😅
@Emily Hawz Apparently so? I’m honestly not sure. it wasn’t until I watched this video that I realized it wasn’t a cc glitch. But yeah originally when the game first came out it wasn’t there.
Yeah, strange town suddenly appearing, death himself saying "you wanna go on an adventure?" and crashing the game? Very much akin to the "don't open the door" feeling in horror movies
@@saskia7214 although adventureland is in world adventures the three primary worlds it came with that everyone will get are China, Egypt and France, adventureland isn't available to people who haven't downloaded through origin and don't have the patch 69
This is so funny I've had adventureland on my game since I installed world adventures. I looked it up on the Sims wiki, saw that it was a test world, shrugged, and never thought about it again. I can't believe it's this huge conspiracy lol
Me too! I was confused when I saw this video because I thought Adventureland just came with World Adventures. I thought it was unnessesary because there wasn't anything special in it, but not scary.
haha i figured it was some random world i installed that turned out to be just a copy of sunset valley. i opened it once and then was like huh? and never thought about it until this hahaha
As much as I like OPs theory reality is different. It's just another game bug leftover from older developments that gets triggered with whatever there is out there that triggers it. There are lots of factors that went through developments and what causes what to break too. I will mention few key things. This game was made back in Windows XP-Vista days Win7 wasn't even out or considered to be used for TS3. I remember tons of issues playing on Win7 compared to previous platform and drivers. TS3 was an unfinished mess no matter the OS. Also been rebooted 2-3 times and lots of codes remained in the game. So on top of that the constant change of PCs didn't help. Certain drivers and systems will corrupt your game and trigger bugs that were never there before or to some it will appear and to some it wont. Also it can even go to the lengths of making ''new'' content for you with still incoherent data. Some might say this is some developer's trollin but keep in mind a developer can't write a code to be triggered on a thing that doesn't exist. Case and point also how TS2 have lots of issues on modern systems because it was only codded to run on WindowsXP. So who say ah those are jokes left in by the devs. Yeah magically devs knew what Windows7-10-11 etc will be, magically knew every future OS and hardware drivers updates etc every single tiny operations of the same so they will code in scripts that will be triggered by these devices from the future ... wake up pls. This is another case and point why PC was and still isn't ideal for gaming because there are millions of iterations of it and constant changes due to some agendas so people will never create a perfect video game that magically runs on every PC. This is why consoles exist, so you play on consoles and work on PC or use it as a casual device. So in this case it's another bug that creates a mess which on top you project things onto it that don't exist trying to justify it's existence. Keep in mind also this game changed lots of developers so if you go and seek them out it will be hard, or if you ask them if they know anything about it they will probably say they don't remember, justified since over the years you really don't remember what you made and often your task seems out of place when you seen it implemented into the entire game because you only worked on a small portion of it.
@@minmogrovingstrongandhealthy is that why you can't get the Sims 1 or 2 on Origin? I was always a little frustrated that I couldn't find them, but I never considered the different operating system coding, that makes sense.
the town being mostly empty and being called "adventureland" is strangely whimsical to me, imagine being able to take your friends out into an entire town occupied only by your group and treat it like a massive jungle gym lmao
I LOVE that the simmer community just instantly goes into creepypasta mode when they encounter bugs or corruptions in the sims. Never change, people, never change.
My guess is that Adventureland is some kind of debug sandbox test world they used while making the World Adventueees expansion pack. It’s common for game developers to have very empty testing places so it’s likely they copied Sunset Valley and renamed it Adevntureland to test out a few WA Sims. The Sims look like adventurers so it was likely to test how their outfits would look like. They probably forget to remove the world so sometimes the debug world accidentally shows up as it would still be left in the code
Not gonna lie, having read a shit ton of science-fiction, if a game's NPC tells me "want to go an an adventure" before the game crashes, I'd be freaking terrified. 😂
This sounds like a map for testing pathing. Back when I was making sims 3 maps, I tested a mostly empty version that I tried to get the camera stuck in. What has happened is that the test map has, one way or another, accidentally been made accessible for some players, rather than just something that was only achievable if you knew the cheat to get there
"Does it bring me joy and therefore makes it canon in my head? Yes." This is me at 3am dreaming of an alternate ending to every show/movie I've ever seen
We need an Entire History of that CC doll that breaks your game, along with other random bad CC (like that dumb horse outfit). It always spooked 12 year old me out.
Oh god that dumb horse outfit.. I know exactly what you're talking about... that outfit has been a pain in my ass for years I can't figure out how to delete it.
@@ConfuzzledOwO it should be in your launcher under the items you've downloaded. if you go through the launcher and get rid of it & it's still there it's probably attached to something you downloaded off the exchange, like a specific sim. i had to uninstall all the sims i got off the exchange because bad cc would attach itself to them
there is map that has the grave of Bella Goth and I think has her kid living there since she could not head back home to the Goth family and idk which map it was but you can buy from the store of The Sims 3. :)
This sort of easter egg used to be a pretty common way for devs to brag. They'd insert themselves into their work as NPCs or photos of themselves hidden unless you had the right combination of inventory items etc etc. So Adventureland could be some scraps they decided to turn into an easter egg.
Yeah, I'm fairly sure Adventureland was just the tester world for World Adventures (as it only appears with WA) that appears as a mistake. Glitch could even be caused by the presence of Ambitions or something.
@@caitlin329 Adventureland is weird because it was added during the final patch of the game (or one before), after all the packs were already released. It probably was someone forgetting to exclude it in the build of the game which causes it to appear.
Na it doesn't have anything to do with ambitions as that is the only pack i don't have installed (i have a hardcopy but it's not mine so it's not on origin) yet it still shows up in my game
My theory was that Sally and Jack were in some sort of purgatory, getting to live the dream that they didn't in real life which is why the town is empty and the Grim Reaper asks you if you want to go on a final adventure.
@@michelleb2722 I certainly didn't, though I could see it being test dialogue to get the player into the World Adventures pack. Kind of like the mascot for University. Maybe the team scrapped that idea, but some code was left accidentally or something.
Apparently it was a world used for testing the World Adventures pack that was mistakenly released and was supposed to be removed. It was used to test the various items and interactions for that pack
Always had access to Adventureland but it just seemed like a sunset valley clone so I never played in it. I never even knew it had sims. The world adventures theory makes sense, Jack and Sally are both wearing WA explorer clothes.
Honestly same. I saw there was a cloned city, same pic and description, and since i didn't use that world much, i didn't really look into it. Of course, by then there were already a lot of bugs and i was willing to shrug it off
I’ve seen a vid before talking about a cursed doll in the sims 3, which was a corrupt file that would attach itself to cc and cause issues and I thought this video was going to be this but about adventureland, which instantly worried me because I have this world lol can she not scare me like that!!!
@@riggamorrischan Don't worry too much! I've had it for quite a while now, and it's never caused any problems. If you're super scared, then you can skip playing in it. You won't miss anything.
@@ava_marie_v yeah I’ve had it for quite some time now, I honestly assumed it was a glitched custom world I had downloaded at some point and never opened it. I’ll probably just continue to not use it lol! thank you, though
Adventureland definitely sounds like a start of a creepypasta and I’m loving it! I feel like I’m going back in time back to 2011, that’s when I found creepypastas and read quite a lot of them so this feeling is giving me nostalgia =D
I love playing in Adventureland especially with the Progression mod because it gets stocked with randomly generated sims so you get a whole new town every time :)
So what is it, is it an brand new world or recycled pleasant view? I don't understand the person on the video also I don't remember too much about this game, it's been more then 10 years since last play it, or better say tried bcs it was unplayable mess. So just wondering a new world or recycled with no sims inside (not counting the obvious 2). Other then that I got the most of it.
I have acouple videos on my channel showing it, it’s a testing world they used for world adventures expansions that was left in the game by mistake and shows up sometimes if you download from origin :)
Autumn, I’m wondering if we will lose all our save info with that world if EA decided to switch to their own launcher instead of origin, it’s one of my worst fears 😆
I’ve had Adventureland show in my sims 3 game for years and honestly I just thought it was a blank version of sunset valley (ie sans sims) that was like an earlier version of sunset valley?? I don’t think I’ve ever played in it and just kinda ignored it lol
Same i looked at it once thinking it might have been a cc world i downloaded at some point then i loaded it in and it was just sunset valley and i went oh that aint it girl
I remember it showing up out of nowhere years ago. After Newcrest came out in the sims 4 I just figured Adventureland was like the Newcrest of the sims 3. Still always creeped me out for some reason 😂😂
Would love to see you talk about the video clips that are shown on the sims’t televisions in all sims games. Like how gameplay from the sims 1 is shown is the sims 2 television sets. Or how your sims can play the sims 3 in the sims 2 via computer.
especially if youre on a lower end laptop.. i remember i was playing once and i wanted to get a picture of one of my sims once so he was talking to his sister and i had her pull out her phone, yada yada.. they were talking beforehand and i kinda forgot about them and like maybe 30 seconds later my sim pops up on my screen his face fully unrendered 😟 he didnt even have eyes !! i didn't have a good nights sleep for almost a week after that and even after, the image was burned into my mind.. worst jumpscare of my life
The game running like ass and on top of it have those creepy haunted doll looking sims. Always hated that game. Up until TS4 came out and said yo you think 3 is bad? hold my beer.
I just installed the sims 3 today, Its the first time I've had it installed in years, and I have Adventureland on my town list! I've never seen it before and I played ts3 for years!
Interesting 🧐 Here is something that I have been wondering about that may interest you. With Cottage living we got Cordelia’s secret cottage, so I download the Princess Cordelia household from the gallery and started playing them. Had Cordelia paint all 3 of her boyfriends and decorated the cottage with all the “Cordelia” objects from build/buy. In build/buy one of the items is a set of decorative plates with parrots. The description tells us that Cordelia’s boyfriends loved parrots, but there are 4 plates with parrots, but she only had 3 boyfriends…..mysterious, I think so. After having her paint for ages she eventually painted what could be a pirate, is this Cordelia’s 4th boyfriend? I have asked EA but they never answered.
The 4th plate is probably supposed to be hers, and the devs were just too lazy to edit the 4th plate in the set so they made all the plates have a parrot
I really like the idea Adventure land could be like a purgatory. The Grim Reaper comes to get you when you're ready to go to the afterlife, but for the time being you get to have a little adventure. The two townies could be the judge whether you get to go to the good or bad afterlife (i.e. heaven or hell). Jack has the friendly trait, so he fits the good afterlife, and Sally is a dareDEVIL and Lucky (in Christianity, luck isn't a thing as everything is the will of God and therefor luck can't exist)!! No thats a stretch but I like the idea
I have Adventureland and here’s my experience: I had just gotten a new laptop and was installing all my expansions. I hadn’t played the sims 3 in awhile and clicked the world Adventureland mistaking it for sunset valley. The world for me was just sunset valley but completely empty (or at least from what I saw). It was a bit eerie looking back but I had just thought it was some sort of preset made to let users fill in the town with their own sims.
I live alone, love all things scary, creepy, macabre and horror related. I understand the logical reasons for this world and it's probably Jesse's storytelling but I am very uneasy rn. I know it sounds silly and I can't explain it but I have this "something is very wrong" feeling in a dark way. Amazing video but holy cow it caught me off guard.
Just to add to the killer theory: what if the "do you want to go on an adventure?" Before it crashes is the last thing you remember was jack and sallys invitation before you are their next victim.. Love spooky season!!
That part is probably fake, I have to say. Only one person reported it, no screenshots, no proof, nobody recreated it. A Herobrine situation, which unfortunately is muddying the waters of an _actually_ interesting mystery!
My theory is that there was a zombie apocalypse and Jack and sally were the only ones left in the town, wearing adventure gear would make sense as looks similar to survival gear ⚙️
I thought the same thing! Like it's just Sunset Valley but in future, after apocalypse of some sort, and these are only ones left, and you can just try to bring the town back to life
I didn't even know Adventureland was something you couldn't get. It was just there as an option for me, and I never really did anything with it because I figured it was a glitch and didn't want to mess up my game. I'm excited to see the theories for this! Edit: I will say, I don't know if the thing about it being tied to Ambitions is true. It appeared for me when I first downloaded the Sims 3 because I also bought a couple packs (including World Adventures) in a sale of sorts. I didn't have Ambitions when it appeared.
Omg same it just was there when I had it . I never knew others didn’t have it I just saw it and thought it was weird. I always looked at it and thought why is there an identical world with same description but different name . I have never played in it but it’s always there .
Even if you never downloaded it, I’d still say the ambitions theory holds weight because the pack was still available on your laptop, which could be what triggers it.
I love The Sims 3, and I miss playing it so much. I stopped playing it after I got my new Mac because it has a super annoying glitch that EA refuses to fix or even acknowledge. Basically, there are no available water options in the game - which makes it really shitty when playing Island Paradise. Your sims can't interact with the water, in any of the neighbourhoods. No swimming or snorkeling in the ocean? What!? I contacted EA about this and they said it wasn't a knows error and they will forward this onward. I have researched online and there are many people having this issue. There is a whole forum dedicated to this issue. Basically, it's been about a year and still there are no news about it. Probably they are never going to fix it. I was hoping maybe some TH-camrs can make some noise about this and help get this fixed. For everyone. Thanks.
Until now I though Adventure Land was just an ironic world name I forgot about when I was testing create a world. Kinda creepy to have something so perfectly match my sense of humor enough to completely fly under my radar.
Wasn't there a custom content baby doll for Sims 2 that infected a whole bunch of people's computers and it attached itself to files whether you wanted it to or not?
YUP! i got the doll in my game back in the day & it honestly didn't do much except mess up babies. most ppl got it from the sims 3 exchange, as you never really knew what you were getting when you downloaded stuff from there.
@@GrimRaven2938 no it was made by a content creator and was cc.. but it attached it'self to every single file meaning that downloading any building from the exchange could cause it to be downloaded to your system there were also outfits similar to it but those were more annoying aesthetically like the centaur body and some basegame clothes that were unlocked for all ages causing babies to spaz out
In my opinion, I was formulating a post-apocalyptic scenario where someone Thanos snapped all of the Sunset Valley civilians way and Jack + Sally are there to explore what remains.
I always feel so much for people living in London etc. I'm lucky to live in a big town near Newcastle with relatively low crime rates and so the idea of being scared to go outside in case you get attacked TERRIFIES ME 😬😱
when moving to new house best to look at the neighborhood to see if there is crime rate there and there is website to help which I am not sure what its called but my sis used it to look for apartments and making sure there is no crime rates or very little of it and its understandable to go outside for me I am afraid of people when I am outside so when I see someone sometimes I go back inside until they leave and I am also afraid of being outside at night since its dark and my mind go wild. XD
my theory is that the developers wanted to do more of a story type pack like strangerville did in sims 4. adventureland mightve been a place to hold npcs until the player started the story that was planned for world adventures? Like they did in sims 2 for a lot of npcs. So i imagine the way it would go is that youd start a new save and start playing a sim and then when u decide to adventure, maybe something like 2 tour guides (the sims in adventureland) go visit the worlds with you and serve as a tutorial, story progressers or lore tellers?
I have Adventureland in my Sims 3 install (All Expansions, most Stuff packs but not Katy Perry). I always assumed it was designed as a "done" world that you can add your own families to for a more custom Sunset Valley experience.
So I know of good ol' adventure land. I only see it when I want to travel using the World Adventure system to go to China, Egypt, or France. But I don't see it in the main menu pick a starting world. And I think that's because I use the NRAS Travel mod which allows me to vacation in the normal worlds such as Bridgeport and etc.
My personal theory could be that adventure land was one of the first play testing maps used and EA was going towards a different direction by using those two female and male characters as a sort of pick your own story. Ultimately they decided to scrap that idea and possibly add it to some other pack but forgot about it. That pack making it into the game somehow by a bug of sorts and that’s why EA doesn’t want to admit that it may have been an error of theirs. They may have also wanted to see the reaction towards the map to see if they can expand on it. May explain the vague bio such as “adventurer”.
I love it when you throw in your headcanons as "lore", it adds depth to the world. I never played with Adventureland despite having it because I didn't see the point, but I might just use it now. Keep up the good work, love your videos Plumbella
I remember seeing Adventureland when I first started the game, and I just thought it was neat that they had a copy of a fully built world with minimal sims so I could populate the town myself 😂
now i want to play in that world and create a whole city that is related to each other, probs gonna have to adopt and keep them in two family trees though, otherwise itll be incest in the next generation and im pretty sure that doesnt work in sims :(
I believe this map was meant to serve as a like... getaway destination like the sim's version of egypt and china. This map was likely meant to be made very differently and was only using sunset valley as a placeholder. It was a test map. the sims, which are very compatible, were likely to serve as tutorial sims. So, maybe this world would of been shown to us only in a tutorial regarding World Adventures but they scrapped the idea and just decided to give us it as a bonus world with the last patch as a way to send off the Sims 3.
Adventureland was created for maxis during the testing of Adventures expansion and they used it with Sally Hard and Jack Ransone for testing the words and the adventures. When they upload the version you can adquire for download they forgot to delete it and never do it because simmers seems to like Sallie and Jack
going off jack and sally being serial killers…maybe the town is purgatory where they’re trapped in the town they committed their killing spree, completely empty as they left it
I had adventure land on my first computer with the Sims, and I have it on my current laptop. I haven't went into it since I first saw it on my first Sims computer, and I very distinctly remember there was no houses, just a large amount of empty lots, but there was a city hall. I closed my game, reopened it and played in Appaloosa Plains. But... I kinda want to experience this myself again
I loved the sims 3 so much, but the fact that the team left the island paradise broken and never really fixed it.. Is a big reason why I'm SO tired of the team and now this? How can they NOT address this? It's honestly mind boggling I know I was completely off topic there hah, sorry about that. I LOVED the vid, it just reminded me of all the other issues the sims 3 had and I guess I never really got over Island paradise
Uhhh… I decided to start playing my old Sims 3 game again, loaded up, totally forgot about this video, loaded it up, and there it is. Adventureland. With Hardy and Ransone households on Sun Song Avenue. I guess I’m gonna try to live in the house between them and see what happens.
"I don't go out of the house because I'm afraid to get stabbed" I have this (ir)rational fear too that sometimes prevented me from going out for multiple days.. 😅 I'm working on it
Currently the response to this video can be read on the Sims wiki in less than 2 lines. There is nothing strange or mysterious. Just a test world that the developers forgot to delete from the code.
@@pinkdiamond1847 mine is still there after having D Drive failure I had reinstall The Sims 3 and 4 and when I loaded the game I saw its still there and I think I use to play in it few times and I also played in Sunset Valley but I never had an issue though it was a long time ago I don't remember what was inside Adventureland world.
could you do an entire history of Billy Caspian and Hank Ferdinand? I'm playing a save where my sims is married to Billy, and I'm curious if there was some kind of plot that players were supposed to uncover about Hank's disappearance. I love your videos, they're always a hoot 💜
OMG i have Adventureland and didn’t know it was a mistery until know hahaha I’ve just didn’t care and never played there, I guess Adventureland came when you download a world of the store without buying ’cause that’s what I did when it appeared
Please talk about the scariest thing to ever exist in the sims series. The sims 3 doll virus that singlehandedly destroyed the reputation of the sims 3 exchange
The theories don't matter. Sims 3 adventureland was created during the creation process of "world adventures" the developers used the world to test aspects of the game. It was accidentally left in the origin release specifically of the game, which is why it didn't show up on everyone's game. It still shows up in game if you download via origin today. (2021) Note: sims 3 games are 50% off on origin. I needed new expansions again so this was great.
for me I first played The Sims 3 and I sometimes played it and than one day I notice Adventureland and I think I have played in it few times and never notice anything strange than again that was along time ago and when my D Drive broke I had get new one and reinstall The Sims 3 and 4 and when I installed The Sims 3 I still had Adventureland. XD
I honestly had no idea there was this spooky lore around Adventureland. It ended up on my PC after I installed World Adventures, Pets and Ambitions in one go. I looked at it, thought it was a bug, and then never used it. I never actually noticed the townies in it, so I just assumed it was an early build of Sunset Valley that Maxis couldn’t delete because it would just break the whole game, and for some reason it was available now.
I had Adventureland on my old laptop a few years ago and I never had Ambitions. I never really went into it as I had just decided to ignore it, choosing to believe it was an alien world copy and they had disposed of all other sims to take over.
I had Adventureland show up for me but I never knew what it was. I always assumed it was a bug in my game, like something that was supposed to be hidden to players but had accidentally been revealed.
I’ve been playing TS3 since it came out and I never had adventure land until last month. I already had the game downloaded on this computer for like 2-3 years and it popped up out of nowhere so I thought that I downloaded cc on accident and it glitched bc it looked like the normal town. I was about to delete it but I’m so glad that I didn’t, I never even knew that there was mystery town. I feel so special to have it even though it seems to be a glitch lmao. Although, if it’s a glitch instead of a joke or something why is the grim reaper in adventure land asking players things instead of another npc?
Literally saw this video the other day and re-installed Sims3 yesterday. When I moved my sims out of their own town, it appeared Adventureland and I was like 😱 I was sooooo freaked out omg
I remember having adventure land in my sims game when i was much younger. I never had ambitions though. If i had to guess it's a world that is designed for you to create all the sims for and make your own adventures with, but its still strange that it only appeared sometimes and that it didn't have a unique description. Although, weirdly enough i swear that my adventure land had a totally different description but I can't remember what it said. All I remember that it was just one or two lines of text rather then the paragraph that Sunset Valley has. Edit: after thinking about it for a sec, i think the text said something along the lines of "Adventure awaits!" but i can't confirm this.

Personally a fan of the theory that Adventureland takes place in the future. Sunset Valley has long since been abandoned by it's inhabitants, and no one is quite sure why--even the name of the town has been lost to time. And yet, curiously, the town remains untouched and undisturbed. Adventurers Jack and Sally intend to go find out exactly what happened to the townies of Adventureland.
Genius
@Emily Hawz it’s because it was so random. The players that have played since the game first came out and played world adventure when it first came out. It was never there. I honestly didn’t think much about it when it first popped up in my game. I thought it was a cc glitch of some kind. But after watching this it’s really weird and creepy. I’ve been playing Sims 3 since it came out. It was not there until recently for me.
Hope that made since for your question. 😅
i love this so much
@Emily Hawz Apparently so? I’m honestly not sure. it wasn’t until I watched this video that I realized it wasn’t a cc glitch. But yeah originally when the game first came out it wasn’t there.
I really like this one
I'm pretty sure a strange town suddenly appearing is how all the creepy pastas start.
Yeah, strange town suddenly appearing, death himself saying "you wanna go on an adventure?" and crashing the game? Very much akin to the "don't open the door" feeling in horror movies

It's just another game bug leftover from older developments that gets triggered with whatever there is out there that triggers it. There are lots of factors that went through developments and what causes what to break too. I will mention few key things.
This game was made back in Windows XP-Vista days Win7 wasn't even out or considered to be used for TS3. I remember tons of issues playing on Win7 compared to previous platform and drivers. TS3 was an unfinished mess no matter the OS. Also been rebooted 2-3 times and lots of codes remained in the game. So on top of that the constant change of PCs didn't help.
Certain drivers and systems will corrupt your game and trigger bugs that were never there before or to some it will appear and to some it wont. Also it can even go to the lengths of making ''new'' content for you with still incoherent data.
Some might say this is some developer's trollin but keep in mind a developer can't write a code to be triggered on a thing that doesn't exist. Case and point also how TS2 have lots of issues on modern systems because it was only codded to run on WindowsXP.
So who say ah those are jokes left in by the devs. Yeah magically devs knew what Windows7-10-11 etc will be, magically knew every future OS and hardware drivers updates etc every single tiny operations of the same so they will code in scripts that will be triggered by these devices from the future ... wake up pls.
This is another case and point why PC was and still isn't ideal for gaming because there are millions of iterations of it and constant changes due to some agendas so people will never create a perfect video game that magically runs on every PC. This is why consoles exist, so you play on consoles and work on PC or use it as a casual device.
So in this case it's another bug that creates a mess which on top you project things onto it that don't exist trying to justify it's existence.
Keep in mind also this game changed lots of developers so if you go and seek them out it will be hard, or if you ask them if they know anything about it they will probably say they don't remember, justified since over the years you really don't remember what you made and often your task seems out of place when you seen it implemented into the entire game because you only worked on a small portion of it.
@@minmogrovingstrongandhealthy is that why you can't get the Sims 1 or 2 on Origin? I was always a little frustrated that I couldn't find them, but I never considered the different operating system coding, that makes sense.

Is that a Sky pfp?
@@AvocadoToast06 i was about to ask the same thing
I LOVE that the simmer community just instantly goes into creepypasta mode when they encounter bugs or corruptions in the sims. Never change, people, never change.
My guess is that Adventureland is some kind of debug sandbox test world they used while making the World Adventueees expansion pack. It’s common for game developers to have very empty testing places so it’s likely they copied Sunset Valley and renamed it Adevntureland to test out a few WA Sims. The Sims look like adventurers so it was likely to test how their outfits would look like. They probably forget to remove the world so sometimes the debug world accidentally shows up as it would still be left in the code
Not gonna lie, having read a shit ton of science-fiction, if a game's NPC tells me "want to go an an adventure" before the game crashes, I'd be freaking terrified. 😂

This sounds like a map for testing pathing. Back when I was making sims 3 maps, I tested a mostly empty version that I tried to get the camera stuck in. What has happened is that the test map has, one way or another, accidentally been made accessible for some players, rather than just something that was only achievable if you knew the cheat to get there
In CAW or did you work for them? 🤔

We need an Entire History of that CC doll that breaks your game, along with other random bad CC (like that dumb horse outfit). It always spooked 12 year old me out.
Girl Doll Dressed right?
Oh god that dumb horse outfit.. I know exactly what you're talking about... that outfit has been a pain in my ass for years I can't figure out how to delete it.
@@ConfuzzledOwO it should be in your launcher under the items you've downloaded. if you go through the launcher and get rid of it & it's still there it's probably attached to something you downloaded off the exchange, like a specific sim. i had to uninstall all the sims i got off the exchange because bad cc would attach itself to them
This felt like a true crime documentary. Lol. Maybe Jack and Sally are the real abductors of Bella Goth.
there is map that has the grave of Bella Goth and I think has her kid living there since she could not head back home to the Goth family and idk which map it was but you can buy from the store of The Sims 3. :)
This sort of easter egg used to be a pretty common way for devs to brag. They'd insert themselves into their work as NPCs or photos of themselves hidden unless you had the right combination of inventory items etc etc. So Adventureland could be some scraps they decided to turn into an easter egg.
Yeah, I'm fairly sure Adventureland was just the tester world for World Adventures (as it only appears with WA) that appears as a mistake. Glitch could even be caused by the presence of Ambitions or something.
I don't think it's that weird that it was accidentally made available to people.
@@caitlin329 Adventureland is weird because it was added during the final patch of the game (or one before), after all the packs were already released. It probably was someone forgetting to exclude it in the build of the game which causes it to appear.
I got world adventures before ambitions and I still got adventureland
Na it doesn't have anything to do with ambitions as that is the only pack i don't have installed (i have a hardcopy but it's not mine so it's not on origin) yet it still shows up in my game
@@TheMarshmallowBear Yeah it doesn't mean that it was created specifically for the update, more that something went wrong with that patch.
My theory was that Sally and Jack were in some sort of purgatory, getting to live the dream that they didn't in real life which is why the town is empty and the Grim Reaper asks you if you want to go on a final adventure.
Adventureland was a test world by EA while they were developing world adventures to test traveling
Makes more sense to the outfits those two sims, as they are from world adventures.
I watched the whole video thinking wtf and then found that via a quick google search 😑
She talks about this as a large possibility in the video. She said she would just like to think it has its own lore.
Yeah. And the grim reaper dialogue just sounds made up. I dont think anybody else ever saw anything like that.
@@michelleb2722 I certainly didn't, though I could see it being test dialogue to get the player into the World Adventures pack. Kind of like the mascot for University. Maybe the team scrapped that idea, but some code was left accidentally or something.
Apparently it was a world used for testing the World Adventures pack that was mistakenly released and was supposed to be removed. It was used to test the various items and interactions for that pack
I got it after pirating the game and I honest to god thought it was ea trying to hack my game as punishment
😭
LMFAOOOO

Reminds me of that pixelation 'bug' on the first pirated release of TS4
My pirated game doesn't have AdventureLand 😤
can we get a lore video on the doll that attached itself to things on the exchange bc its one of my favorite historical sims event of all time ever
soooo creepy!!
Always had access to Adventureland but it just seemed like a sunset valley clone so I never played in it. I never even knew it had sims. The world adventures theory makes sense, Jack and Sally are both wearing WA explorer clothes.
I never had it, despite having the disc install(or whatever equivalent it was).
I downloaded too late for it. Wish I could've had it bc it seems fun.
Honestly same. I saw there was a cloned city, same pic and description, and since i didn't use that world much, i didn't really look into it.
Of course, by then there were already a lot of bugs and i was willing to shrug it off
I remember once all the Sims outside my family started walking like the imaginary friend from generations. Terrifying!
How do you manage to make things scary for me that aren’t scary lmfao now I’m all paranoid
Legit, I actually had goosebumps over fucking sims 3 lmao
I know, right? Now I want to turn Adventureland into a sort of ghost town. That'd take so much effort, though😂
I’ve seen a vid before talking about a cursed doll in the sims 3, which was a corrupt file that would attach itself to cc and cause issues and I thought this video was going to be this but about adventureland, which instantly worried me because I have this world lol can she not scare me like that!!!
@@riggamorrischan Don't worry too much! I've had it for quite a while now, and it's never caused any problems. If you're super scared, then you can skip playing in it. You won't miss anything.
@@ava_marie_v yeah I’ve had it for quite some time now, I honestly assumed it was a glitched custom world I had downloaded at some point and never opened it. I’ll probably just continue to not use it lol! thank you, though
Adventureland definitely sounds like a start of a creepypasta and I’m loving it! I feel like I’m going back in time back to 2011, that’s when I found creepypastas and read quite a lot of them so this feeling is giving me nostalgia =D
I love playing in Adventureland especially with the Progression mod because it gets stocked with randomly generated sims so you get a whole new town every time :)
that’s actually kinda cool Lol
I’ve been playing on a Adventureland for almost a year and it’s my favourite world 😊
So what is it, is it an brand new world or recycled pleasant view? I don't understand the person on the video also I don't remember too much about this game, it's been more then 10 years since last play it, or better say tried bcs it was unplayable mess. So just wondering a new world or recycled with no sims inside (not counting the obvious 2). Other then that I got the most of it.
I have acouple videos on my channel showing it, it’s a testing world they used for world adventures expansions that was left in the game by mistake and shows up sometimes if you download from origin :)
Autumn, I’m wondering if we will lose all our save info with that world if EA decided to switch to their own launcher instead of origin, it’s one of my worst fears 😆
You should do “Sims: conspiracy theories” for the spooky season 💚
I want all your lore thoughts always ESPECIALLY about Bella. My spirit is already broken.
felt that omg
I Never EVER had adventure land and I literally just bought and installed world adventures and now it’s appeared
I’ve had Adventureland show in my sims 3 game for years and honestly I just thought it was a blank version of sunset valley (ie sans sims) that was like an earlier version of sunset valley?? I don’t think I’ve ever played in it and just kinda ignored it lol
Same i looked at it once thinking it might have been a cc world i downloaded at some point then i loaded it in and it was just sunset valley and i went oh that aint it girl
I remember it showing up out of nowhere years ago. After Newcrest came out in the sims 4 I just figured Adventureland was like the Newcrest of the sims 3. Still always creeped me out for some reason 😂😂
Same I've had it in my game for years I opened it once and saw it was a blank world and haven't touched it since lol
Same here but i was so on edge and afraid to play it cause it gave younger me bad vibes lmao.
It appeared maybe last week/the week before when I got world adventures for me. I'm about to check it out for the first time
Would love to see you talk about the video clips that are shown on the sims’t televisions in all sims games. Like how gameplay from the sims 1 is shown is the sims 2 television sets. Or how your sims can play the sims 3 in the sims 2 via computer.
Sims 3 is literally terrifying in multiple ways
especially if youre on a lower end laptop.. i remember i was playing once and i wanted to get a picture of one of my sims once so he was talking to his sister and i had her pull out her phone, yada yada.. they were talking beforehand and i kinda forgot about them and like maybe 30 seconds later my sim pops up on my screen his face fully unrendered 😟 he didnt even have eyes !! i didn't have a good nights sleep for almost a week after that and even after, the image was burned into my mind.. worst jumpscare of my life
The game running like ass and on top of it have those creepy haunted doll looking sims. Always hated that game. Up until TS4 came out and said yo you think 3 is bad? hold my beer.
I just installed the sims 3 today, Its the first time I've had it installed in years, and I have Adventureland on my town list! I've never seen it before and I played ts3 for years!
Interesting 🧐
Here is something that I have been wondering about that may interest you.
With Cottage living we got Cordelia’s secret cottage, so I download the Princess Cordelia household from the gallery and started playing them. Had Cordelia paint all 3 of her boyfriends and decorated the cottage with all the “Cordelia” objects from build/buy. In build/buy one of the items is a set of decorative plates with parrots. The description tells us that Cordelia’s boyfriends loved parrots, but there are 4 plates with parrots, but she only had 3 boyfriends…..mysterious, I think so. After having her paint for ages she eventually painted what could be a pirate, is this Cordelia’s 4th boyfriend? I have asked EA but they never answered.
The 4th plate is probably supposed to be hers, and the devs were just too lazy to edit the 4th plate in the set so they made all the plates have a parrot
I really like the idea Adventure land could be like a purgatory. The Grim Reaper comes to get you when you're ready to go to the afterlife, but for the time being you get to have a little adventure. The two townies could be the judge whether you get to go to the good or bad afterlife (i.e. heaven or hell). Jack has the friendly trait, so he fits the good afterlife, and Sally is a dareDEVIL and Lucky (in Christianity, luck isn't a thing as everything is the will of God and therefor luck can't exist)!! No thats a stretch but I like the idea
I have Adventureland and here’s my experience: I had just gotten a new laptop and was installing all my expansions. I hadn’t played the sims 3 in awhile and clicked the world Adventureland mistaking it for sunset valley. The world for me was just sunset valley but completely empty (or at least from what I saw). It was a bit eerie looking back but I had just thought it was some sort of preset made to let users fill in the town with their own sims.
Liar
@@poohshiesty5624 why are you saying that they are lying?
My Adventureland was empty too! I thought it was just an empty version of sunset valley to build

I live alone, love all things scary, creepy, macabre and horror related. I understand the logical reasons for this world and it's probably Jesse's storytelling but I am very uneasy rn. I know it sounds silly and I can't explain it but I have this "something is very wrong" feeling in a dark way. Amazing video but holy cow it caught me off guard.
Just to add to the killer theory: what if the "do you want to go on an adventure?" Before it crashes is the last thing you remember was jack and sallys invitation before you are their next victim.. Love spooky season!!
Ok but as a fanatic of spooky stuff (especially stories) I love this
I don't think I'll be able to go to sleep rn
OMG YEEES
That part is probably fake, I have to say. Only one person reported it, no screenshots, no proof, nobody recreated it. A Herobrine situation, which unfortunately is muddying the waters of an _actually_ interesting mystery!
My theory is that there was a zombie apocalypse and Jack and sally were the only ones left in the town, wearing adventure gear would make sense as looks similar to survival gear ⚙️
I thought the same thing! Like it's just Sunset Valley but in future, after apocalypse of some sort, and these are only ones left, and you can just try to bring the town back to life
No that’s just stupid
@@ch3rryst3m55 ok party pooper

I didn't even know Adventureland was something you couldn't get. It was just there as an option for me, and I never really did anything with it because I figured it was a glitch and didn't want to mess up my game. I'm excited to see the theories for this!
Edit: I will say, I don't know if the thing about it being tied to Ambitions is true. It appeared for me when I first downloaded the Sims 3 because I also bought a couple packs (including World Adventures) in a sale of sorts. I didn't have Ambitions when it appeared.
Omg same it just was there when I had it . I never knew others didn’t have it I just saw it and thought it was weird. I always looked at it and thought why is there an identical world with same description but different name . I have never played in it but it’s always there .
I thought it was a new world that was like Sunset Valley but with different lore???
Even if you never downloaded it, I’d still say the ambitions theory holds weight because the pack was still available on your laptop, which could be what triggers it.
@@piperlehr9228 Huh?
she didn’t say Ambitions was a requirement to see the world, what are you disproving?
I love The Sims 3, and I miss playing it so much. I stopped playing it after I got my new Mac because it has a super annoying glitch that EA refuses to fix or even acknowledge.
Basically, there are no available water options in the game - which makes it really shitty when playing Island Paradise. Your sims can't interact with the water, in any of the neighbourhoods. No swimming or snorkeling in the ocean? What!?
I contacted EA about this and they said it wasn't a knows error and they will forward this onward. I have researched online and there are many people having this issue. There is a whole forum dedicated to this issue. Basically, it's been about a year and still there are no news about it. Probably they are never going to fix it.
I was hoping maybe some TH-camrs can make some noise about this and help get this fixed. For everyone. Thanks.
I would like to know more about the origins of this 'they accidentally deleted Bella Goth' theory because it makes zero sense to me.
theres literally tons of videos on the subject
Until now I though Adventure Land was just an ironic world name I forgot about when I was testing create a world. Kinda creepy to have something so perfectly match my sense of humor enough to completely fly under my radar.
Wasn't there a custom content baby doll for Sims 2 that infected a whole bunch of people's computers and it attached itself to files whether you wanted it to or not?
@@GrimRaven2938 it may have been since 3 but it was definitely a custom content doll
YUP! i got the doll in my game back in the day & it honestly didn't do much except mess up babies. most ppl got it from the sims 3 exchange, as you never really knew what you were getting when you downloaded stuff from there.
Also that one glitch that (similarly to the doll) infected a bunch of CC package files and turned people's Sims into freaky centaurs. Good times
Oo I would love her to do a video about that doll. My friend told me about it a while ago and It gave me goosebumps 😩😩
@@GrimRaven2938 no it was made by a content creator and was cc.. but it attached it'self to every single file meaning that downloading any building from the exchange could cause it to be downloaded to your system there were also outfits similar to it but those were more annoying aesthetically like the centaur body and some basegame clothes that were unlocked for all ages causing babies to spaz out
I started up the Sims 3 while turning on this video. And Adventureland is now an option in my towns. It wasn’t there the other day.
this is why TS3 is so amazing
I've played it for a decade yet to this day I find out new exciting things about it
In my opinion, I was formulating a post-apocalyptic scenario where someone Thanos snapped all of the Sunset Valley civilians way and Jack + Sally are there to explore what remains.
"I do not leave the house often because I am afraid of getting stabbed". Never related to you on such a deep level. Anxiety is fun, ain't it?
I always feel so much for people living in London etc. I'm lucky to live in a big town near Newcastle with relatively low crime rates and so the idea of being scared to go outside in case you get attacked TERRIFIES ME 😬😱
when moving to new house best to look at the neighborhood to see if there is crime rate there and there is website to help which I am not sure what its called but my sis used it to look for apartments and making sure there is no crime rates or very little of it and its understandable to go outside for me I am afraid of people when I am outside so when I see someone sometimes I go back inside until they leave and I am also afraid of being outside at night since its dark and my mind go wild. XD
omg the editing in this was so cool! i would def love to see more of this style
my theory is that the developers wanted to do more of a story type pack like strangerville did in sims 4. adventureland mightve been a place to hold npcs until the player started the story that was planned for world adventures? Like they did in sims 2 for a lot of npcs.
So i imagine the way it would go is that youd start a new save and start playing a sim and then when u decide to adventure, maybe something like 2 tour guides (the sims in adventureland) go visit the worlds with you and serve as a tutorial, story progressers or lore tellers?
I have Adventureland in my Sims 3 install (All Expansions, most Stuff packs but not Katy Perry).
I always assumed it was designed as a "done" world that you can add your own families to for a more custom Sunset Valley experience.
So I know of good ol' adventure land. I only see it when I want to travel using the World Adventure system to go to China, Egypt, or France. But I don't see it in the main menu pick a starting world. And I think that's because I use the NRAS Travel mod which allows me to vacation in the normal worlds such as Bridgeport and etc.
My personal theory could be that adventure land was one of the first play testing maps used and EA was going towards a different direction by using those two female and male characters as a sort of pick your own story. Ultimately they decided to scrap that idea and possibly add it to some other pack but forgot about it. That pack making it into the game somehow by a bug of sorts and that’s why EA doesn’t want to admit that it may have been an error of theirs. They may have also wanted to see the reaction towards the map to see if they can expand on it. May explain the vague bio such as “adventurer”.
I love it when you throw in your headcanons as "lore", it adds depth to the world. I never played with Adventureland despite having it because I didn't see the point, but I might just use it now. Keep up the good work, love your videos Plumbella
I remember seeing Adventureland when I first started the game, and I just thought it was neat that they had a copy of a fully built world with minimal sims so I could populate the town myself 😂
It could be like a ‘Adam’ and ‘Eve’ sort of thing
now i want to play in that world and create a whole city that is related to each other, probs gonna have to adopt and keep them in two family trees though, otherwise itll be incest in the next generation and im pretty sure that doesnt work in sims :(
"Make your own cannon" this is what I love about the Sims and your videos. Thanks for this video!
Always thought it was just a test world that the devs left behind
I believe this map was meant to serve as a like... getaway destination like the sim's version of egypt and china. This map was likely meant to be made very differently and was only using sunset valley as a placeholder. It was a test map. the sims, which are very compatible, were likely to serve as tutorial sims. So, maybe this world would of been shown to us only in a tutorial regarding World Adventures but they scrapped the idea and just decided to give us it as a bonus world with the last patch as a way to send off the Sims 3.
This is an amazing theory! I would've loved if they put it as a tutorial world and gave the option to fully control and play in it later.
I wouldn't even be surprised if it's just the sims trolling us.
With my Adventureland I just made a bunch of characters from my favorite TV shows, filled the town with then and let the chaos begin lol
“but the real reason you may be freaked out about it may lay closer to home than you think”
me: yes ur right
Adventureland was created for maxis during the testing of Adventures expansion and they used it with Sally Hard and Jack Ransone for testing the words and the adventures.
When they upload the version you can adquire for download they forgot to delete it and never do it because simmers seems to like Sallie and Jack

I had adventure land on my first computer with the Sims, and I have it on my current laptop.

I had never heard about this before! I'm fascinated. It's like an urban legend
I personally love the idea that Adventureland is an inception style dream world or alternate reality that Jack and Sally are trapped in

Currently the response to this video can be read on the Sims wiki in less than 2 lines. There is nothing strange or mysterious. Just a test world that the developers forgot to delete from the code.
I was weirded out about Adventureland at first but then I started to use it to build in or edit the existing lots and it was great

The theories don't matter. Sims 3 adventureland was created during the creation process of "world adventures" the developers used the world to test aspects of the game. It was accidentally left in the origin release specifically of the game, which is why it didn't show up on everyone's game. It still shows up in game if you download via origin today. (2021)
Note: sims 3 games are 50% off on origin. I needed new expansions again so this was great.
Not the Blink reference-
Edit: Also, I do have Adventureland and I always assumed it was there on purpose as a custom world to build on?
Huh when?
for me I first played The Sims 3 and I sometimes played it and than one day I notice Adventureland and I think I have played in it few times and never notice anything strange than again that was along time ago and when my D Drive broke I had get new one and reinstall The Sims 3 and 4 and when I installed The Sims 3 I still had Adventureland. XD
I honestly had no idea there was this spooky lore around Adventureland. It ended up on my PC after I installed World Adventures, Pets and Ambitions in one go. I looked at it, thought it was a bug, and then never used it. I never actually noticed the townies in it, so I just assumed it was an early build of Sunset Valley that Maxis couldn’t delete because it would just break the whole game, and for some reason it was available now.
i’ve played the sims for so long and never heard of this… i’m so intrigued
I had Adventureland on my old laptop a few years ago and I never had Ambitions. I never really went into it as I had just decided to ignore it, choosing to believe it was an alien world copy and they had disposed of all other sims to take over.
I had Adventureland show up for me but I never knew what it was. I always assumed it was a bug in my game, like something that was supposed to be hidden to players but had accidentally been revealed.
I’ve been playing TS3 since it came out and I never had adventure land until last month. I already had the game downloaded on this computer for like 2-3 years and it popped up out of nowhere so I thought that I downloaded cc on accident and it glitched bc it looked like the normal town. I was about to delete it but I’m so glad that I didn’t, I never even knew that there was mystery town. I feel so special to have it even though it seems to be a glitch lmao. Although, if it’s a glitch instead of a joke or something why is the grim reaper in adventure land asking players things instead of another npc?

Literally saw this video the other day and re-installed Sims3 yesterday. When I moved my sims out of their own town, it appeared Adventureland and I was like 😱 I was sooooo freaked out omg
It's just yet another instance of incompetence and sloppines of the developers' team behind The Sims.
I remember having adventure land in my sims game when i was much younger. I never had ambitions though. If i had to guess it's a world that is designed for you to create all the sims for and make your own adventures with, but its still strange that it only appeared sometimes and that it didn't have a unique description. Although, weirdly enough i swear that my adventure land had a totally different description but I can't remember what it said. All I remember that it was just one or two lines of text rather then the paragraph that Sunset Valley has.
Edit: after thinking about it for a sec, i think the text said something along the lines of "Adventure awaits!" but i can't confirm this.
Adventureland never had its own description. It's mostly a clone of Sunset Valley with 2 exclusive Sims and generic remains at the graveyard.
Your theory at the end had me snickering, not gonna lie.
This sounds like the beginning of a cursed game creepypasta.
I had never heard of this before today so I guess I never got the curse of Adventureland.
