Like several other worlds, Oasis Landing contains various references to real world culture, in this case mainly science-fiction themed media.

The player starts out in the normal future, but can alter it to a utopian or dystopian future by tampering with certain aspects of life in the present. There are three types of Oasis Landing: normal, utopian and dystopian. Unlike other sub-worlds in The Sims 3, Sims are able to stay in Oasis Landing indefinitely. They can buy (or build) a Plumbot, or sell one to the masses, set up a digiblast display, or even buy new high-tech stuff from the imports gallery. Sims can engineer children, something that is not possible anywhere else. It is set in the distant future, relative to other worlds in The Sims series. Oasis Landing is a futuristic sub- world that was shipped with The Sims 3: Into the Future. The locals walk around joyfully, greeting each other with Whimsical waves. Inspired by centuries of whimsical stories, the Sims of Oasis Landing built a paradise! Flowers bearing Dews dot the landscape and nobody can account for strange buried gold being found about town.
