The Sims 4 Jungle Adventure Game Pack
Guide to DLC Additions and Gameplay Features
The Sims 4 Jungle Adventure Game Pack releases February 27, 2018. This new pack is reminiscent of The Sims 3 World Adventures, which allowed players to explore ruins in three destinations. Jungle Adventures features one large jungle-themed travel destination: the land of Selvadorada. Players have an ancient temple to explore, new skills, a new culture and thus new foods and themed decor that is very Mayan in appearance.

The Sims 4 Jungle Adventure Gameplay
Help with the Jungle Adventure Game Pack and its many minor features, focused on an archaeologist..
Travel to Selvadorada
Sims can choose to travel to Selvadorada at any time, and can rent a bungalow for a set price each day. More lavish accommodations are available. While in Selvadorada, they can experience the local cuisine, festive music, or go exploring. Sims can travel alone or bring a large group, along with their kids and pets.
At first, places on the map are blocked but as you adventure you will unlock destinations that you can travel to at any time.
Adventures in the Jungle
Exploring the Jungle, and a view outside the temple
While visiting Selvadorada, you'll be able to purchase supplies to help you adventure safely. At first you'll be setting off into the unknown, but will gradually get to know the lay of the land and carve a path through overgrowth that lets you advance deeper into the jungle. Hidden in the jungle is an ancient temple, fraught with traps and creatures both natural and mystic. Inside, Sims will have to solve puzzles and overcome challenges and near-death experiences to advance. The temple will reset for future explorers, and several layouts exist so that the experience will not go stale so quickly for you should you return with future Sims.
Archaeology
A full guide to the Sims 4 Jungle Adventure's Archaeology skill and all its abilities - from dig sites to excavations and surveys, you can find ancient Omiscan treasures and verify the authenticity of artifacts. Also introduces the relics system - tops and bases, which produce strong magical effects that benefit your Sims.

A new Archaeology Skill is available in Jungle Adventure
The pack features a new Archaeology skill that Sims can level. The new skill couples with new artifacts that can be assembled from parts, as well as valuable treasures. The skill is also relevant inside the temple, as you can sometimes use it to get through obstacles. It is certainly possible to make a living with the new skill. We don't yet know what types of powers artifacts may bestow to Sims that find them but will certainly write about them in the near-future.
Selvadoradian Culture Skill
The Selvadoradian Culture Skill teaches new dance moves, survival tips and recipes
This skill seems to be a mashup of various types of skills. You appear to learn new recipes and dance moves, but also helpful advice for surviving in Selvadorada.
New Stuff
Architecture and temple decor are clearly inspired by the Maya
The pack features a wide variety of other things. According to livestreams and info released by the Sims team, the pack as at least:
- Skeletons - not a new life state. It seems more like a curse. It's been hinted there is a benefit to befriending them.
- Build and Buy Mode items based around a jungle/Mayan type theme
- Two Aspirations: Jungle Explorer and Archaeology Scholar
- Two radio stations: Latin pop and Traditional Latin
- Three new fish types
- Three harvestables: avocado, black bean, and something more mystical
- Two new lot traits
- A new death type
- New recipes - likely largely connected to Selvadoradian Culture Skill
- Relic and Artifacts - also, fake relics and artifacts!
- Two Collections: Ancient Omiscan Artifacts and Omiscan Treasures
- A new collection case: Used for displaying treasures. Make your own museum!

thx
Could you do a Selvadoradian Culture Skill with the foods and dance moves, please. This Skill is taught at University as an elective, but as that is a rabbit-hole experience you can't really know what it is your Sim just learned.
It's a 5 level skill that unlocks different socials, some food recipes and the chance at a better outcome for some of the traps both in the jungle exploration experience and in the temple. There is simply not enough to write about.
