It was a dark and stormy night. Six strangers have been invited to a dinner party at a luxurious mansion in the country. Their only link to each other is the man who invited them, a man with whom they've all had correspondence or had business with, but none of them have ever seen him face to face, or even know his real name. Yet they all came, all of them dying to finally meet...Mr. Body.
We all know how the rest of this one goes. Sometime during the dinner party, Mr. Body is found dead, but who did it? Where? And with what? Was it Col. Mustard in the billiards room with the rope? Or Prof. Plum in the kitchen with the wrench?
Which famous game mansion is it? Well, if by now you haven't figured it out, you're 'Clueless'.
I always dreamed about living in this mansion when I was just a little sim...so now I have a chance to do so through my Sims. The original gameboard was decidedly square, but I hate square houses, so I added a few attractive curves, and who doesn't like attractive curves? Also, since no one has ever seen the upstairs, even though there were stairs leading to it, I got to use my imagination and make one up. The secret passages? Well, I didn't add those since they travel through the basement, and currently, I'm no good with basements.(I'm working on it, though) Now, about the pool...a mansion this extravagant, this luxurious, needs a pool. Rules of etiquette practically demand it, so I built one!

There's a baby grand piano in the home, but I have no idea who made it. I still say thanks because it's a sweet item. If anyone knows who made it, let me know, and I'll update this post. They deserve credit.
Check out the home, kick the tires, and then take her for a spin. My sims love it, and I think yours will, too! Welcome Home.
