For Sims who like to stay occupied, there are a number of careers to choose from, with success determined by your ability to work hard, stay in a good mood and make friends. The life of a Sim isn't all about telling jokes and throwing parties - unless you want it to be. Happiness points can be cashed in for prizes that can make life a bit easier, from a steel bladder that cuts down on bathroom visits to a Teleportation Pad that (usually) gets your Sims where they need to go.
Sims also have a Lifetime Wish.Ĭompleting these will net you thousands of Happiness points, but they require enormous amounts of effort - becoming Leader of the Free World isn't for the faint of heart. This Sim might earn a few points by heading to the library and swiping candy from an infant along the way. Take a Sim who is granted the Evil and a Bookworm traits, for example. While you're still free to lead Sims around, it's often far more interesting to see what the ones you haven't been watching have done with their time - whether it's buying a few groceries or stealing all the light fixtures and potted plants from their neighbors' houses. That means you can spend less time shepherding them and more time playing the game.
Icons called Moodlets will help you keep track of which needs aren't being met, and your characters will address these problems when possible. Your Sims are a also bit more independent than in previous versions of the game. What better way to explore the new, seamless world than going out for a jog? Sims 3 gets rid of all those pesky loading screens, allowing players to explore every nook and cranny of their towns.įeel free to call a cab if you're in a hurry, but Sims who wander will meet new friends, find the occasional seed to plant in their gardens or stumble upon a quiet spot to do a bit of fishing.
If you'd like to avail yourself of the hyperactive *Sims *fan base, you can also download characters made and shared by other players. There are also quite a few premade families packaged with the game. If you're not very creative, or can't be bothered with tweaking so many options, you can have a random family of Sims generated for you.
