The premise, in the publisher's words

The divine arts are at your Sims’ fingertips. Use your penchant for sorcery to bring peace or mayhem to the neighborhood. Uncover a mystical world and explore newfound abilities. Cast a nasty spell on your enemies, brew love potions or discover the path to immortality! Collect a variety of motes from the greatest enchanters in the realm. Apply what you’ve learned with potions and spells, then begin your quest to become a Spellcaster. Summon creatures to join your magical mishaps, whether it be fairy, frog or high-flying dragon. Practice magic and look good doing it. Set yourself up with cauldron-ready looks, wands and brooms to accessorize, and finish it off with bewitching home decor.
