The Sims 3 review

Fri, 12 Nov 2010 11:07:00 +1300

For perhaps the handful of people unfamiliar with The Sims franchise, it’s a series of open-ended strategic life simulation games, which involve creating virtual people and micro-managing their day to day lives, whilst helping fulfil their hopes and dreams (or not).

You might ask why anyone would spend time playing a game about virtual life when there’s plenty of living to be had in the real world. Nevertheless the series has amassed a huge following over the last decade. The original game and its sequels have spawned a host of expansion packs, with each subsequent generation offering more diversity and scope, whilst remaining true to the original winning formula.

As we’ve come to expect, The Sims 3 boasts some improved features over its predecessor. An expanded wardrobe and the introduction of sliders in Create a Sim provide a greater level of control over your sims’ physical appearance and voice. Personality points have been replaced with a new Traits system, which determines a sim’s character qualities and behaviour, as well as a selection of suitable life goals. Once you’ve finished setting up your household it’s time to learn how to run it.
