The Sims: Unleashed
The Sims: Unleashed is the fifth expansion pack for The Sims, designed to offer truly lively animal friends, with all the fun and responsibility that comes with pet ownership. Apart from introducing pets into the game as Sims and not objects, Unleashed also offers new careers including Chef, Circus Performer, and naturally, Veterinarian. The expansion also adds 125 new objects, for both pets and people. For the first time, Sims can grow vegetables in their own garden plots. Harvested crops are stored in a pantry, then sold at a farmer's market or enjoyed by the farmers themselves. Gardening Sims may especially appreciate a devoted feline friend, who will help by chasing rabbits and gophers away from the crops.

About This Game
The Sims: Unleashed brings the neighborhood to life with animals—dogs, cats, parrots, lizards, turtles, and other companions that each come with their own demands and rewards. Train a puppy at home or bring in a Pet Trainer to handle the hard parts. Enter the local Pet Show to compete on obedience, temperament, and learned tricks. A walk in the park becomes a social event: pets attract other pet-owning neighbors and open up relationships that wouldn't happen otherwise. For Sims who prefer lower-maintenance company, smaller animals like birds and reptiles require far less daily attention but provide just as much personality.
