Part 64: Paradise Lost

We race to the back of the island, where that immense gate is currently closed.


This can be done.

hi hello

of course we're going to shove him, what's wrong with you


What, he didn't like that? Okay, fine, we'll apologize.


Uh. Hm. Do you like... dirt, Spencer?
He does not. He becomes Standoffish again. Sam apologizes. Again.

Let's, uh, try a little harder.

Armor! Armor? Armor armor. Armor armor armor.

have I mentioned that your armor is awfully shiny and awesome

Hey, we're getting th--holy crap, have we finally found an appreciative audience for a discussion of Roland's quest?!


Yes! Finally! It's enough to make Sam give a bro an arm hug. ... what's an arm hug?

Ohh, okay.

Woo hoo!


Good to know.


So close to self-awareness, Spencer. So close.



Oh, I have an idea.

I also have another unnerving new outfit to try on.


Like this!

Spencer was over here banging on the keyboard almost before Sam put the last piece of wire down.

Daniel hurries over, but...


Let's see. There are little gear-spinny things to either side of the gate, and two handy windmills. Sam is beginning to get a glimmer.

We should probably try to be a little circumspect about this, since we're breaking into a place and all.

We are the stealthiest. With both gear-spinny things turning, the enormous gate rises!


Daniel races through the newly-opened gate, and Sam follows him... to the dark and gritty underbelly of Cutopia.

The secret at the rotten heart of Cutopia lies bared at last: a terrible ruin of a place where those who do not conform may be exiled, hidden away behind a vast gate such that the more well-off residents need not see them, need not be inconvenienced by their differing opinions. Of such false foundations is every so-called 'utopia' made.


Easy enough. Sam puts some platforms up here to buy himself some space...

... then makes himself a stairway to Violet.

Sam nods.

Violet cheers right up. She's been saved--

--and we all know what that sound means!

Next time on MySims Kingdom: aaaargh goddammit oh and I guess something about maybe wrapping up Cutopia
