Pros

More of the same Sims stuff.
Lots of new features. Easy to learn. Teaches you a bit about real-life geography.
New gameplay mechanics while exploring tombs; hours of new storybased objectives; tons of new internationally themed items

Cons

Boring errands; wonky movement controls; unimpressive new sandboxes.
No easy way to enter the basements you can now build.
Just when you thought you were out (of Sims 3), World Adventures pulls you back in; Prepare to lose a lot of hours to this one.
