You can develop the families and their members as long as you want to – the game can be called an infinite one. There is no particular story line in the game and everything mostly depends on your actions. However, the total amount of family members cannot exceed eight people. The amount of members can grow and become smaller with time – new children are born while the old ones die. The essence of the game is simple: you will have to take care of one of the families. You are expected to make their lives better, so good luck.

As such, the entire community of the digital characters look and feel so real, just like you are taking control over the lives of real people and decide their destinies. There are wealthy and poor, happy and unhappy, lonely and cheerful people here. The others are real enemies that hate each other. Some families have negative relationships and conflicts. For example, there is one family that has gained their wealth doing some unlawful things and now they are extremely rich and live in one of the most significant buildings of the town. You will also meet the new families here. The woman is in sorrow and most city dwellers avoid her. There is a depressive widow in one of the large Victorian mansions. Some dwellers have tragic lives – they have lost their husbands or relatives. Some families live in large family mansions, the other own small modest houses. The events of the game work as a prequel to the previous parts of the series because you can meet some of the sims that have already died or got old in the first and second parts. However, you will meet some new characters as well. In this game you have a large amount of families – twenty-six – and some of the characters come from the previous parts of the game. The Sims 3 is a user-generated universe, where you play in a so-called digital sandbox and arrange the lives of different characters that are also created by you.

The third part might be one of the most successful one in this franchise.
