Being a life simulation game, you'll also need to guide your Sim as he/she step on the rollercoaster of life, develop a career, find a partner for life, accumulate skills and knowledge, and chase after their dreams. Interestingly, you can even record your Sim's adventures and share them with the game's vibrant community.The Sims 3 definitely one-ups its predecessor in so many ways and is worth every cent you put into it.
