Lost Cove

Once the world was fine and pushing technological boundaries was a daily challenge, to make the world, «a better place». Just like predicated in every sci-fi books or movies, Sims went too far … Was it an experiment that turned bad or the sum of too much pollution ? Could have been a pandemic or pure bad luck ? No one really knows ...

Nevertheless, technology failed, weather stormed, earthquakes rambled and flooding changed everything. Including your Sims life and lifestyle. 30 years after the Apocalypse, Nature took its right back. And Sims had to adapt to survive. But now, Sims want more than surviving, they are ready to rebuild !

Lost Cove is an archipelago, already a community before the apocalypse. A lot of friends perished when the Apocalypse occurred. The majority of the inhabitants flew black to their family, inlands. Some wished to stay, seemed impossible for them to leave the islands and tried to save what was left in Lost Cove. They were lucky enough indeed. So, they decided to build a new community, with new rules. The Town Hall did not suffer too much damage. Was it a sign ?

The whole thing is a sign ! Just the Town Hall and the Criminal Hideout were left good to use. Downtown sinked. Nothing remained. For the hippies, it is the Aquarius age - time to be, to feel, to live, to be in the "now". For others, only despair and chaos, no more law, no more rules, criminals all over the places, people stealing from others. And that sudden coming out of vampires and all strange creatures ... they even made a bar just outside of the Town Hall ... So many signs, so many new things to process. A new world ? But what kind ? And that's not counting on those who want to go back to the Old World ( can't imagine how much the hippies are against it ! )

Rebuilding the community was hard and it was decided that if one wanted something, one had to do it by itself. First, it was to bring back people together, so the Vampire Bar came out and people start talking about it. They didn't feel like abiding by some rules, since the archipelago wouldn't be touristic for a long time again, they could rebuild for them, what did they all wanted right now ? Thus, the school isn't a classic one and indeed all buildings go the same way ... but hey, the community is glad to have start something.

Buildings such as houses are still in a kind of half-finished condition. Until now ... The main island is the biggest one. The second island can't be reach by the bridge like before, actually all islands are isolated and can only be reach by swimming. No one had time to explore them and assets their needs. The bridges collapsed, the previous downtown sinked and the only road remaining is near to useless. Nature is really everywhere ! Sure, it is beautiful, scenery no one paid attention to before, but is it enough to fill a life ? Will it keep people warm in the middle of winter ?

Don't fool yourself, Lost Cove is not all butterflies and so on. Dangerous places, lost islands and even forgotten lots are awaiting on this small place of the Sim Globe. Winter can be very rude and all the Sims around have already felt the loneliness of a long long winter ... Inhabitants aren't all into the whole community trip, some would like to get back to "modern life". Will there be fight for power ? Is electricity coming back ? What will the future generations choose ?
