The Sims This is a wonderful and addictive game. A change of quality from the past sim flops from Maxis: (Sim Ant, Sim Farm, Sim Park, ect...). A remarkable game never done before. A game where you control actual people instead of cities, islands, towers, farms, ect... Where you control what kind of house they live in, what job they have, and what they buy. You can also control what actions they do. Whether its eat, sleep, work, or play. When you first play the game you will see a sim neighborhood. You can choose to play the tutorial to get started, or play with the life of an already built Sim, or you can build a sim from scratch and move your family in an already built home, or you can build a sim from scratch and move him into an empty lot and then you build the house with the wonderful house building tool. When you build your sim you go to a screen that shows some already built Sims such as a family, roomies, and a bachelor. You can choose to make your own sim with a variety of faces and clothing styles. Then you can choose their personality with traits like neat, outgoing, active, playful, and nice. Building a house for your sim is my favorite thing to do because there are so many possibilities of how you can do it. You can make it traditional or as wild as you want it. You can make it look beautiful, make it look like your own, or make it look like some retarded architect made it. It's all up to you. This is what I did for my very first sim: I built a man by the name of George Carter. I can't remember what kind of cloths or personality I gave him because it was a very long time ago. Anyway, I build him a house (A house that was not very functional. I could tell because the layout rating for my sim was low.) that had wallpaper on the outside because at the time I didn't know about the outside stuff like brick, aluminum siding, and stone. I gave him a job in the medical line. I don't remember him getting promoted. I gave him a chair, the cheapest TV, a radio and the other necessities like refrigerator, toilet, and shower. I decided to evict him and destroy the house for a better family. One other fun thing to do with your sim when you are tired of playing with him is to kill him! Yes, it does sound morbid, but we don't care about that do we? One of the most violent (and my favorite) ways to kill your sim is to burn him. Just be sure that one of your Sims does not have any cooking skills and you have an oven or a fireplace. Then ask the sim to cook or light a fire, then watch the fun start. Make sure that you don't have a smoke detector or otherwise that will spoil the fun. Call all of your other Sims into the fire room and you can sit back and relax while your Sims burn up. Just make sure that there are plenty of things to feed the fire. There are other ways to kill your sim like drowning, starvation, electrocution, and sickness. To drown your sim make him swim in a pool then take out the ladder. When his energy runs out then he will die. To starve your sim you must, of course, make him not eat. I do not know how to break the TV or any other appliance, but you can. Just get your sim to fix it and watch the sparks fly. To get your sim sick just don't let him take a bath. The Sims is a wonderful game that you must experience. Please, for your own sake, go out and buy it! It is a must have!
