Inside Mac Games has posted a new review of EA's The Sims Medieval: Pirates & Nobles. The expansion introduces a variety of new quests, new treasure hunting options, and a host of new pirate and nobility themed items to the game.

Here's an excerpt:

The Sims Medieval: Pirates & Nobles (PnN) has few new elements, it's not long at all, and it plays exactly the same. The additions are mainly in the areas of wardrobe and new items, although there is one new gameplay element. You can now go on treasure hunts. This sadly isn't as awesome as it sounds, as it's mainly just popping from place to place following a map to get items that aren't really better than what your blacksmith can make. In the end, you'll likely find yourself ignoring this entirely.

There is a new chain of missions, though, and those give you a little more time to spend. However, like with all the missions, there's no real reason to pursue them again once you've done them once. They are of similar quality to the rest of the quests in The Sims Medieval, which is pretty good quality overall. It's just that they'll be over a lot faster than you'll expect, given that they're the meat of this full-priced expansion.
