This town appeared in the game along with one of the most extensive additions - "Pets". This area has been described as a quiet suburb located near forests and meadows, open for research in all directions. It is worth noting that its name corresponds to the theme of the supplement itself. Appaloosa is the name of the breed of horse. An overview of Appaloosa Plains in The Sims 3 will follow.
What's new?
This is a rather unusual and interesting area. Its main feature is the presence of pets in almost every home. Buildings by style and courtyard, by the way, are more like a ranch here. The city of Appaloosa Plains in "Sims 3" is not so big. At the top of the map hill, there is also a living area a bit like the already traditional Riverside.
Almost every house has a hangar and a fairly large yard. At the same time, almost all the things that appeared in the supplement are mostly cowboy themes.

Interesting information
Below are some fairly unusual points that “came” with the addition:
- Appaloosa Plains has one interesting feature about the details of the world. Usually, if a character dies, his ghost turns into a color that is tied to a reason because of which he went to another world (example: yellow - electrocuted; white - old age and so on). In the same case, all citizens acquire a red color, that is, all parts of their body (including clothing) are painted in this color. And also all spirits unexpectedly equally love the orange color.
- One of the game's (XML) files contains data presets that make some of the characters in the town famous. And if you install an add-on called "At Twilight", many of them will be holders of celebrity status.
- It is worth noting that this supplement is the only one in which social buildings (such as a fire station) are stylized to the atmosphere of the town.
- Appaloosa Plains is almost the only world in which there is just a huge number of small pets. Here they are many times more than in all other cities. Which, in principle, is not surprising, given that this is the territory of the supplement dedicated to animals.
- One of the main attractions of the city is a voluminous dinosaur figure standing at the entrance. Dogs can collect bones in this area. They can also look for treasures here.
