The drugs are more than just consumable odds and ends. The creator said he doesn’t feel like adding heroin, despite requests. Basemental introduced four drugs to the game: MDMA, cocaine, adderall and weed. Six months in, Filip has created a mod called Basemental, which drops drugs into The Sims world like the CIA did in communities throughout the 80s. He started by trying to reprogram the game to allow players to actually snort a line of coke. The available content was strictly decorative, allowing players to leave paraphernalia and drugs on the counter, like the morning after a house party. He wasn’t the first modder in the world to add drugs to the game-encountering other drug mods got him thinking about it. Now, one game modder has decided to right this wrong-and he’s making some serious cash doing it.įilip (no last name given) only picked up on The Sims last May, mostly for ideas on a kitchen redesign. One thing the game has never allowed for is smoking weed. Millions of players around the world have used the game to do very normal things like building their Sims eighteen kitchens and no bedroom, furiously trying to get two virtual dolls to have PG-13 sex or trapping Sims in a room without doors. Since debuting in 2000, The Sims has gone on to become one of the most successful video games of all time.
