Not too much coverage on the newly released town of Barnacle Bay for The Sims 3, but GameRant wrote a short review with some positive words:
It would have been a bit more interesting for EA to implement some pirate-like features and attitudes, but the new items are worth the price if you are a fan of The Sims 3. This is also coming from a person who feels the items for your Xbox Live avatar that cost money are absolutely ridiculous. Overall, it’s a great add-on and will hold you over until the Late Night expansion is released October 26.’
