The best life simulator ever released bar none. Filled to the brim with soul and character, with the faithfully crafted styles of the early 2000s, and soundtracked by one of the most recognisable musical scores in gaming. Maybe it's most defining feature is it's difficulty, one I'd expect more from a Souls-like, not a virtual doll game. Trying to balance a household with more than a handful of Sims is an exercise in patience and sacrifice (and an interactive parable of life), choosing between your lifelong dreams and being able to pay the bills.
