The Sims 2

The Sims 2

Released2005
The console versions of The Sims 2 featured local splitscreen multiplayer, a story mode and an option to control game characters directly, as opposed to queuing options as is traditional Sims gameplay. In this videogame, you cannot have children nor age, but you are only adults (excluding elders), even though you can get married. You must earn aspiration points to unlock rewards by filling up your "goals" which will also be needed to complete story mode. Story mode is a sequence of multiple levels along with developed storylines which each character asks you to fulfill wants that pertain to their story. There is also a sandbox mode where you can live in a preset family or build your own.

About This Game

This handheld version of The Sims 2 plays out across twelve locations spread between Pleasantview, Strangetown, and Melbourne. Rather than simply moving through a neighbourhood, Sims must work toward specific objectives called Golden Wants — mission-style goals that, when completed, unlock access to new destinations.
