Game Review (written by Tetter) Added on: 09/12/2006
This is one of the best games I have ever played.
I play it all the time when I get home from school because it so much more interesting than my real life. Isn't that so sad?
Well anyways, back to the game. Sim life has the best graphics ever. I find that the colors that programs likes to use a lot are really similar to the colors that real life has. Also the game play is the most amazing. I feel like each character has so many features that are just like real life.

Also the game play is the most amazing. I feel like each character has so many features that are just like real life. For instance the feature of being able to really control the actual aspects of everything is my favorite. It doesn't just tell you ok you have like this much money

and this many resources and now go out and start the life. No, it's different than that. It actually takes a real life approach and addresses what would really happen in real life. The parallels also to the political world are how can I say speechless to say the least.
What this game does, it take everything in life that is the most important or astounding and then it just really amplifies that existence and somehow puts it all into a game form. Now tell me that your everyday game can do that. I don't really think that it could.
The next aspect I would like to discuss is the way the game is so easy to have it become a seamless part of my computer experience. It doesn't ever mess up other programs like Tetris or Wordpad or anything so I can do some typing or something while I am waiting for the life developments to happen. Like sometimes when my character has to sit there and think for a while about what the next best thing is to happen, then I can also maybe play pinball. Also what I like about the game is the fact that it's so different every time. This is very different from my own life where I feel like it’s the same every day in and every day out. No, not here. The power of the computer enables an infinite possibility of experiences that just boggle the mind each and every time, right down to last drop. That's what I love so much about this game. In fact to even call it just a game really doesn't do justice to this masterpiece of digital wizardry.
I would recommend this game to everyone who wants to see all the different and special possibilities that life can offer. Thank you.

Complex gameplay and simple but well done graphics. The interface is similar to that of simant but a bit more abstract.

I used to love this game as a kid. Although the graphics are simple, the gameplay is fun and addictive.

Wow. I really do love this game. I think it's pretty shmeat. I'm a huge controlfreak, so i definately liked a game like this. it's easy to use and sparks a huge interest in people interested in these kind of things. try it out.
