Realm of Magic occupied my life for days straight, and I am still actively playing the Sim I created for this pack on a daily basis. The spells and potions are just so invaluable that she will probably be my main Sim for some time. I personally loved this pack and would highly recommend you grab it!

There is a serious amount of content and creative potential in Realm of Magic and it’s further proof that while The Sims 5 might be in some shadowy state of development, there is still ample fun to be had with The Sims 4. Fans of Harry Potter will rejoice that the Sims can now explore the nexus of magic and everyday life and longtime players now have even more stuff to keep them in the game.

At first glance, Realm of Magic can seem barren. However, it’s all a guise as the true game begins in its mystical new realm of Glimmerbrook. All in all, The Sims 4: Realm of Magic is a ton of fun. With a bunch of newly added features to take your Sims game to the next level and a ton of different new paths to experience, this game pack does not disappoint.

The Sims 4's Realm of Magic Game Pack is an extensive pack of fantasy content for Sims fanatics, rife with plenty of intriguing reasons to revisit.

Those who have hoped for similar style diversity as in the vampire gameplay pack or at least sim-quirks like in Werde-famous add-on, are tricked here.

If you've been craving more of the occult in Sims 4, it's a decent way to indulge that craving given that "Vampires" is one of the only substantial offerings in that department since 2015.

Realm of Magic is powerful and versatile, but ultimately, it feels less fun. It’s a fantastic pack to play around in, and I’ll likely return to it organically at some point as I build up a multi-generational family. As a sole pursuit in a game of The Sims 4, however, this power fantasy is capable of automating and trivializing much of the game. Realm of Magic works best in small doses, but much of the content makes the base game less enjoyable, not more.
