About the Game
==============
Behold the mind-bending creations from the most twisted imaginations! You'll discover items that defy convention and redefine the meaning of pop-art. Post-modern sofas, freaky chairs and gripping dressers? We've got it all! Prepare to let your inner eccentric loose and transform your house into a vibrant playground of funky delights.  
But first, take a glimpse at some of these eye-catching beauties.  
**Bedside table Funky**  
Do you need a comfortable place your cat can sleep on? This nightstand was made especially for you. It will hold up to three cats, books or other things that you can pet or read whenever you like.  
**Armchair Funky**  
It needed the meeting of two brilliant minds, such as Veronica Liptson and Gorgio Shanua to create this unique chair. It is not suitable for sitting, but it will look stunning in the living room. If you don't have a living room, for this chair you will definitely get one.  
**Floor lamp Funky**  
A lamp solely for people who have a floor. Without it, the lamp might be rendered useless, since it will fall into the abyss and break. If you're reading this, it means you have a floor, and so you're just one step away from owning this beauty.  
**The DLC will include over 120 new items**

- Limited Content and No New Features (weight 0.56): The DLC only adds furniture accessories to the decoration inventory and does not include new quests or maps. The content feels light compared to other DLCs like Farm Flipper and Garden Flipper.
