Twinbrook is a town which shipped with The Sims 3: Ambitions.
In its heyday, Twinbrook was a small industrial town at the mouth of the Simislaus creeks. Years later, the dam was built and it changed everything for the town. Now with an influx of professionals, artists, and inventors living around the Sim-made lake, Twinbrook is experiencing a rebirth. How will life in this eclectic community turn out?[1]
Description
Grant Rodiek first mentioned Twinbrook in an interview, saying;
"The town of Twinbrook is absolutely beautiful and designed specifically for players. You will clearly see how our world-designing team has improved when you discover Twinbrook."[1]
Twinbrook stresses the new professions and skills introduced in Ambitions, such as the Stylist profession or Inventing skill.
Twinbrook is situated on a bayou (swamp), with many bridges and may be in the state of Simisouri (according to DeAndre Wolf's bio). Much of the town is designed in a French style like many bayou towns. For example, the town library is a classic French design with two porticos, one at both entrances.
According to a Gamespot hands-on, Twinbrook 'is a fictitious bayou town not unlike a backwoods suburb of Louisiana.'[2] Players who attended the UK hands on event reported that Twinbrook 'is a huge new town, which had been flooded, and is now half-swamp half-town. The swampy areas are very dank and misty. The other side of Twinbrook has brand new shops such as the laundromat, The tattoo parlour and stylist shop and much more. I really enjoyed having a look around Twinbrook, and the place looks really great.' They've also re-done most of the rabbit holes, such as the diner.'[3] It may be assumed that Simslaus Creek references Stanislaus County, a county located in California, or the Stanislaus River located in said county.
Interestingly, all the premade deceased Sims in Twinbrook are pale green if resurrected. They also have grey hair and are all barefoot. In this post on thesims3.com, SimGuruLily says that this was intentional, but does not say what the intent was.
An interesting fact about this town is that it has a lot of rich people like the Whelohffs, Pidgins, Knacks, and the Bakers. Most of these rich people have larger houses than Sunset Valley and Riverview rich families, and most families in Twinbrook start with §5000 or §10,000 in cash, while in the other neighborhood almost all families start with around §1000 in cash. So Twinbrook is, so far, the richest neighborhood in the game, though Bridgeport may exceed that.
Like all neighbourhoods, Twinbrook is technically an island. This fact is hard to discover, but in gameplay go into map view and press tab. This lets you see things that you can't see normally, and gives a view of all of Twinbrook. Unusually, if you follow the river near the Rackets' house, there seem to be buildings which look like skyscrapers. Some people think it is a reference to Bridgeport. The only other world which has this is Champs Les Sims, though it also has the Eiffel Tower.
