The Sims is a very wierd but interesting game

Personal Opinion:

Personally, I’m not the person who plays video games a lot. You’ll usually catch me crocheting or drawing half the time. But when I do play video games, I usually play Roblox, the switch, or 3ds. And recently, I started playing this video game called The Sims. Now I’m a sucker for role playing and simulation games but this one is downright weird. In the sims, you have to power to create your own sims, make them be in a relationship, interact with other sims, visit places, pick up a career, you get the point. When scrolling on social media, I see a lot of videos of people playing the sims. Some videos, they have the characters do things, like abuse another sim, destroy their homes, other stuff that I can’t think about at the moment. The sims has four installments within the series which is The Sims, sims 2, sims 3, and sims 4. There is also Simcity that was created in 1989 and it involves building a city for the Sims while the series of sims, have you build lives.
