Sims 4 World Overview
With worlds like Willow Creek and Strangerville listed under USA and Windenburg and Nordhaven under Europe, the list is very straightforward. But one world seemed to spark debate in the comments in the thread. San Myshuno. In the original list, San Myshuno was listed under ‘Misc.’, but commenters argued that it could be in Asia due to the cultural influence. Others suggested that it could be either NewYork or San Francisco.
Several commenters shared that San Myshuno is actually based on San Fransokyo from Big Hero 6. I would have never guessed that was the inspiration, but it’s certainly interesting!
San Myshuno: A World Open to Interpretation
Regardless of the inspiration behind the worlds, The Sims 4 is all about using your imagination and creativity! So, whether you agree or disagree with the true inspiration, you’re completely free to imagine something new for your Sims!
Tokyo, or New York, or even San Francisco, how does it appear in your Sims lore?
