Instead, you feed your dog, throw barbecues with your neighbors, and maybe get married to the cute girl or guy across the hall.Īll of that low-stakes freedom has made The Sims ripe for modding. You will not shoot aliens, or level up abilities, or kill the warlord who set you on a quest for vengeance. Unlike other games, there isn’t a clear victory condition or story to follow. You take control of a small family in a modest house and enjoy the thrills of ordinary life. The Sims is one of the most popular video game franchises of all time. It is Avengers: Endgame, in Macintosh form. A Sim’s eyes glows blue and it calls lightning from the sky. Armageddon, Ahmed Qoqas’ latest mod, warps the docile suburbia of SimNation into an epic struggle of superheroes and supervillains.
