The Sims |
Simulation Game from Electronic Arts, by Maxis
Management/strategy game that places you in charge of individual lives. You can set up a household of your own, defining the appearance and character traits of the residents. You control what the people eat, what they do for a living and how they spend their money and their leisure time. You can also design their houses.
You follow your characters as they go about their lives interacting with the rest of the population of this virtual world. The characters interact via a system of pictorial representations. There is an amazing amount of depth to the game, with characters exhibiting a wide range of behaviors and even emotional responses.
The game employs good 3D graphics. You can view the action inside buildings because their walls are cut away. The game's interface and menu system are highly effective. Play is accompanied by a range of sound effects, cartoon-style babble instead of speech and background music.
