The Sims: Livin’ Large, released on August 31, 2000Īllow player to switch 5 neighborhoods, all featuring the 10 lots from Sim Lane, but can carry distinct houses and sims. The Sims had 7 expansion packs, each adding new items in game in buy mode, build mode, careers and Create a Sim, and some important features listed below: You cannot change roof other than color and one of 4 pitch options (you can however, make single story houses with terrace at second story). Any area enclosed by walls gets automatically a hipped roof, gabled roof is impossible.

You cannot have foundations, basements or stairs if the ground is hilly, like in The Sims 2 and newer games. The Sims 1 is limited in terms of architectural features.

More details here: The Sims 1 career tracks. Salary and hours vary from job to job, career been inverse proportional, the ones with lowest entry level salary have highest top level salary. The Sims 1 have 10 career tracks with 10 position each, expansion packs add more careers making a total of 21 careers. The Sims 1 do not have weekdays, adults go to job every day and children go to school every day. When babies turn into children, head and clothes are randomly selected as in The Sims 1 there is no genetics.Ĭhildren if neglected will be taken by social worker, or if miss school bus and falling grades, they will leave forever to military school. If you move out a family having a baby, the baby is not taken to new lot.

But children never turn into adults (unless you have Makin’ Magic and use charm Age of Instant), and adults never die by aging (but there are many ways in which they can die: starvation, burning, drowning, shocking, etc).īabies in The Sims are objects, not Sims. There is also possible to make babies, putting two sims in the love bed introduced by an expansion pack and click “play” on them, you get a baby crib, the baby require feeding about every 6 hours and after 72 hours they will turn into a child. Sometimes you get a phone call asking if you want to adopt a baby. The Sims 1 have only 2 life stages: child and adult. It is a crappy game by modern standards, but it is innovative, being the first game of The Sims series, and if it didn’t existed, probably the better games The Sims 2 and 3 may have never appeared. The Sims 1 was launched on January 31, 2000.
