    My 11 year old daughter loves this game & it didn't take her long to figure everything out. I have windows 7 & thought that was my problem installing the game only to find out my daughter already made an account in Swedish so when I signed her in my screen was jibberish. Once that was straightened out it took a while to download but everything works great.

    Good fun game. Does seem to have a lot of downloads that need to happen quite frequently to keep the game undated.

    Was cheaper than the sims 4 and just as fun. Not as new but for someone who only has the sims 1 or never played before it is a good start.

    If you have never played them sims before, this is a great game to start. This starter pack comes with just enough items to get started and there are many more add on packs to purchase. You need the original game, in this case sims 3, in order to play the add on content. It's so much fun you will lose track of time.

    It's fun but it is very time consuming. Not a fan of how long it takes to set up your land and stuff

    The Sims has aways been a favorite of mine ever since the very first one years ago. It's interactive, fun and educational at the same time. Always challenging. It's a game that kids and adults can enjoy playing equally. Even if your not a big video game junky you'll enjoy playing this game. And there are a variety of Sims adventures to enjoy.

    I hadnt palyed the sims since the first one so I figured this would be pretty good. Its alright. Ive ended up now with almost all the expansions but they really dont seem to do much to expand the game. Maybe a little here and there. If you want to sit in front of a computer and play with somebodys life instead of getting your own this game is perfect for you.

    It is a very interesting game, especially for the preteens and teens. It also teaches them that food, clothing, shelter and extras all cost money. When the money is gone, they can't buy it!
