Does Strangerville Affect Other Worlds?

Once you complete the story, everyone is safe from its effects, and you can choose to leave Strangerville as a “normal” world to live in, providing flexibility to either continue exploring the strange happenings or return to usual Sims gameplay without any lasting effects.
