There are games that over time are not forgotten and quickly disappear, but become better over the years. These include Sims 3.
Legendary life simulator
The Sims 3 game, released in 2009, has become one of the most popular simulators in the world. There are no analogues to it, except for its previous parts. It gives the user a unique chance to take control of the character and actually live his life. How to play Sims 3, and what interesting features does the simulator have? This will be described in detail below.
Did you dream of becoming a show business star, a famous stylist or a great inventor? Thanks to this game, it is possible to fulfill any dream. Released numerous additions (for example, "Sims 3: Supernatural") almost unlimited expand the player's capabilities.
Opportunities - not only manage, but also build
The game combines a realistic life simulator and a carefully designed construction editor, with which you can create both a modest little house and a magnificent castle. Building in Sims 3 is as exciting as managing a character. For those who do not really like the long process of creating a home or do not have a designer taste, the latest additions have the opportunity to use ready-made drawings of entire rooms and landscape elements. You can choose a living room, dining room, kitchen and even a swimming pool in the yard to your liking.
But nevertheless, the most important thing in “Sims 3” is managing the life of your ward. By the way, the player here is not limited in the number of characters. Have a desire to manage a large family? There is nothing impossible in the simulator.
The most important thing is character creation
So, more on how to play Sims 3. First you need to create your main character. There is a special tool for this - a character creation editor. In it you can choose a ready-made personality, but it will be much more interesting to make the character yourself. Here you can give scope to your imagination. Eye and hair color, hairstyle, nose shape, physical parameters - all this is adjusted and changed. The editor also selects clothes for all occasions: casual, formal, top, for sleeping and sports.
After the character is created, you need to give him character traits. At the request of the player, they can be positive and negative. The most important thing is the choice of the life goal or dream of the hero. His main dream depends on what character traits he will possess. Love adventures? So he wants to become a great explorer of tombs. Crazy about animals? Then the character’s cherished dream is to collect more than 20 pets under his roof. Do not forget that the chosen cherished desire should be interesting to the player, otherwise its implementation will not bring the expected joy. I would like to note that despite such a complex tool as the character creation editor, the gameplay does not cause any difficulties. The simulator has a huge number of tips with which you can get out of any difficulty. Over time, they even begin to bother.
Housing choice
The next important step explaining how to play Sims 3 is populating the character. You can choose a finished house or a plot where you have to build your own housing. It should be borne in mind that initially the character owns a small amount of money (about 16 thousand), and enough for a very modest housing. If a player decides to buy a plot for construction, then the cash can hardly be enough for the walls and the roof over his head. How to play next? There are two options. One for lazy people. You can enter a special developer code and get a certain amount of money. The second option is difficult, but interesting. In "Sims 3" everything, as in life. If you want to get something, you need to earn. Sim will have to choose a profession, occupation or become an individual entrepreneur. This is the only way he can earn Simoleons and buy everything necessary for life.
However, there is another option for making money in the game - collecting fruits, stones, growing vegetables and fruits, and fishing. Some of this can be eaten so as not to die of hunger, and the rest - to sell and earn some money.
Life indicators - all attention to them
How to play Sims 3? Such a question can often be seen on forums dedicated to this legendary simulator. In fact, only at first glance does the game seem complicated and confusing. You just need to follow the main rule - carefully monitor the character’s vital indicators and do not let them drop to a minimum, otherwise your sim will face a painful premature death.
The game panel has a tab with six basic needs: nutrition, vitality, communication, leisure, hygiene and natural need. The higher the numbers, the happier the sim will be. When he is cheerful and cheerful, points of happiness are accrued, on which you can buy many interesting opportunities for the character. If needs are low, the sim is depressed and suffers. The main indicator on which the character’s life depends is nutrition. If the sim is not fed for a long time, he will die of hunger. You need to keep the needs at the highest level, and the character will live a long happy life.
Skills
In the game, another interesting opportunity is realized - getting a character's skills. Every person in life gradually learns something, sometimes without making any special effort to do so. Self-repaired chair, pasted book, sealed part - these minor trifles teach something new, develop special skills. The same can be done in Sims 3. Fishing, alchemy, science, martial arts, cooking, scuba diving - the list of skills is extensive and varied. You can study them all or limit yourself to a few.
Sims 3 - Islands, Beaches and Resorts
Separate words deserve the penultimate addition to the game "Paradise Islands." New interesting possibilities appeared in it: the creation and management of a resort, an exciting skill (scuba diving), mysterious islands and a supernatural character - a mermaid. All of this can now be found in The Sims 3. The addon loads easily onto the computer, the main thing is that the base part of the game has already been installed on it. The controls and rules remained the same, but the simulator’s potential has grown significantly, which means that playing it has become even more fun.
