Video Game Reviews of The Sims Makin' Magic Expansion Pack
Customer Review: Awesome!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of my favorite expansion packs out of The Sims. It is incredibly creative, entertaining, and engaging. In this expansion pack, you have a wand, and a new kind of currency called MagiCoins. You have to earn or buy all kinds of ingredients with your MagiCoins to make new spells and charms, and the better the ingredients, the cooler the spell or charm will be. You earn MagiCoins by performing in Magic Town, or running errands for vendors that sell different things. There are tons of new objects, including a new maid that you can buy, named Bonehilda (she's a skeleton with a maid costume!). And guess what? You can buy a dragon egg :-D If you don't already have this game, go out and BUY IT!!!Customer Review: Awsome game

Maxis is really getting good at this, all the expansion packs are getting funner, if you like all the last expansion packs, you'll love this one! You get to make your sims into wizards and witches, turning guests into frogs, and getting even a pet dragon! I hope you will buy this because I'm sure you will enjoy it, but remember it is still a rated T game!Customer Review: Great but... still has some problems

As you know, Sims in the Original is just like human beings: work, play, build house, make friends, etc...Yet, it is not good because it missed a lot of items we have. But in later expansion, lots of more items were added.
Hot Date Ex. helps them (Sims) make a date, Unleashed helps them have pets, and have more places to live, etc... Real great!
In Sims Makin' Magic, it helps them make magic, spells and charms, and have lots of other items like beanstalks, oversize flowers, etc... It is great, too. And lots of faces are added. Those faces are just O.K, not very beautiful. I can make better faces.
We now have a Magic Town, where we can buy dragons, lots of ingredients to make spells, charms, etc...
Dragons are great, too. Thay have feelings. If we don't take care of them, we must take care of fire. They will burn all the house with just their breath.
Spells and charms are great. They let Sims do more things like having a big meal, being a ghost, or have their gardens watered by the clouds, etc... Best of all is money falls from heaven to Sims' house. I can have $6000 more after selling all treasures.
Music is the best compared with other Ex.s. You know, it sounds great, mysterious.
One real big problem is that the non-player characters act so delailedly. When I need to buy something, they put their hands up, down, to the right, to the left, etc... Overall, waste of time. It takes me lots of time to wait for them to complete their actions. They waste almost 2 times as long as the non-player characters do in Sims Unleashed Ex.
Another small problem is that is seems just so far away from our lives. But that is O.K. As I say it is just so small. But you know it makes the Ex. funnier.
Believe me. If you haven't got one, let's have one and see the differences between it and other Ex.s.
It is one of the two best Ex.s to me: Unleashed and this one.
Customer Review: Awesome!!!

Let me first say, that i love the Sims. With each expansion pack, the world of my characters grow and grow. This expansion pack expands that world and my character abilities.Now your Sims can do magic! But they must learn how to do it correctly or the spells will backfire. There are new places to explore...new ingredients to collect...different spells to cast...etc. The magic element brings a whole new element to the Sims game...probably their best expansion pack yet.
You must have the original Sims or Deluxe/double deluxe. The expansion packs work best if you install them in the order they came out...if you bought them out of sequence, just uninstall and reinstall them in the right order. Makin Magic will be the last one.
I loved this expansion pack, because it fit into my well created neighborhood. As a big fan of BTVS (that's buffy the vampire slayer..for you non fans), I recreated Sunnydale and unlike the show, i control ALL.. That means Joyce and Tara are still alive...Kennedy burned up in a kitchen fire..spike and Buffy are on their way to true love (why won't she accept his proposal..i must be doing something wrong??) With the magic element, Sunnydale is like its meant to be. Willow and Tara are powerful Wiccans and the spells are fun to play with.
If you have the Sims...get this pack. its well worth it for hours of new gameplay.
