Testing get to work: part 1

While speculating what would be the first exspansion pack for sims 4 - I thought to myself, that I really wanted an exspansion pack where you could open your own store, like in the sims 2 open for buisness. 

When the Get to work exspansion pack was announced, I was verry thrilled. An exspansion where you could take your sims to work, AND open your own store. It just sounded amasing. Before I even got the game, I allready knew what I whanted to do in it with Tess. I wanted to open a souvenir store called Tess Tressures, where she could sell the pretty things she had collected. And I wanted to try the scientist job first.
AND there are aliens!!

I was extemly exited when the game was finally released. It came out at midnight, and I played undtil 6 a clock in the morning. I uselly dont play games all night, I think it helped that my boyfriend had given me an energi drink. 

Annyway I will start by talking about the new, things for create  a sim. 
There was no new traits or aspirations, I hadent really expected any but I had hoped for them. 

With get to work you can actually make your own alien - that is so awsome. They can have a range of different skin color, not just green. There are some nice eye colors to choose between as well. When you play with an alien, you can make them a disguise, so they blend in with the other sims. 

I was super happy, that there was new cute clothes for the little girls.

There were 8 new hair for men, and I think they are pretty nice. male hair can end up being kinda borinf, but these new hairstyles are fun and different. 

A nice selection of clothes for the men, I think most of it looks simple yet  interesting. 

There were 9 new hair for woman, and I really liked them. There were only two of the new hairsyles, that I didnt really care for. 

There were ALOT of new clothes, some of it I REALLY liked, and some of it I REALLY disliked. But i did manage to make Tess 5 everyday outfits, a formal outfit, sleepwear and party outfit.  
After getting her makeover, Tess was ready to try out get to work. 


She started on the scientist career right away. The facility is VERRY big and it looks awsome. but its a shame thats its not on the map.

It was fun to make things on the thingy making mashine :P

This one looks coll b ut dosent do much, it just spins around.

Tess was testing samples from plants and minerals

Documenting her results

Here she was making some interestings serums

Poof!!

She tested it herself and it didnt go too well, I think she needs a guinea pig.

Just a better picture of the thingy making machine

Tess had to ask her colleagues for minerals, so she followed this gal into the bathroom. IIt kinda looks shady "do you have some drugs?"

Tess opended up a store in Magnolæia Promenade, it only have 4 lots but think the area looks nice. I had hoped that you could open astore at home, like in the sims 2 but you cant.

  I decided to name her store "Tess treasures, its a souvenir shop where she sells the things she has collected. I tryed to make it look cosy. I really like that you can sell everything, there was no problem putting all her collectibles for sale. 

When she restocked items she, she didnt have to have them in her inventory - so that was quite easy.

Tess checked out customers on a tablet, a pretty modern way to do it. im not sure if I like it, she allways had to go back and forth acroos to room, to check out different  customers. I kinda felt that the cash register barely had any use at all. I would have liked it better if she just used the cash register,  and the  customers was standing in line. 

Aparently she shouldent have left sthe shop, because she them got abducted by aliens. Aparently it is easier to be abducted than in the sims 2, which is both a good and a bad thing. Fortunately she cameback safe.

Back at work she opgraded her gun thingy so that it can change the shape of things, anf interesting way to decorate.

She allso made this portal, but she couldent get it to work. She even took it home with her and worked on it. I really wanted to see where she would end up, if she went through the portal. 

At one pointn she was required to trim the bonsai tree

She upgraded her gun so she could hypnotise her coworkers to do things, like eat, sleep, clean or take care of the plants. 

She made some more serum

And she tested it on her new guinea pig coworker.

When she came home she was abducted again right outside her front door.

She allso worked on her rocket, there was an option with a new upgrade that I was curious about. Aparently she could fly through a wormhole with this new upgrade.

On the other side of the wormhole, Tess found this facinating alien planet. This is the new hidden lot, and I absolutely love it.

On this new lot there are some new plants and rocks to collect. There are allso a whole new things to collect, they are called geoder and are verry pretty.

An alien walked by

She took the plants from the alien planet home with her and planted them in her garden. 

I made her an offcie in her basement, where she could keep experimenting when she was at home.

I was exited when Tess could finlly make the cloning mashine. It was so weird and fun when she cloned herself. The mashine is allso good for cloning alot of other things, like fruit, serums and collectibles.

Blasting cowrkers with the freeze ray was super fun

Tess finally got the portal to work, it leads to the same hidden lot/ alien planet as the wormhole does.

The last thing Tess did as an scientist was going to this alien party, here she met alot of nice, charming and beautifull aliens. The lot looked different doing the party, with a bar and a dance floor. 

I really liked the scientist career, it was VERRY fun, and Tess even made some usefull inventions.
