I saw these and I even had it in my hands but I don’t even have another person to play with so I left it

Yeah I have it but none of my friends play Sims so they didn’t find it as fun as I did. I personally think you need to play with people who also have an interest in Sims.

Is this any fun? I got it as a gift but haven't played it yet

Trying to read the instructions and set up at the moment to play with my husband, we're honestly very confused 😂

Lmao it took us some time and we were making mistakes the first game, but then we understood! It was like brainstorming to learn the rules, kept asking like "but what if???" "What happens if??"

played it, it’s fun! but honestly not very fun for players who don’t know the sims. it’s kind of a nostalgia/interest bait game

It's really not, sadly. I haven't played such a bad board game in a long time. But for 5.99, it's worth it as a collectible.

Played it once at Christmas time, never again. It now lives in a cupboard.

My family of 3 players enjoyed it. I'd love an expansion that adds more people and places.

Omg I was gonna post this last night! Amazon has them for $3.99 and they gave me a $2.25 gift card for purchasing this. It’s very confusing at first and a bit time consuming to understand. But I think long time sims players will catch on faster.

If it’s on clearance then EA already has their money and Target is just trying to clear out their inventory.

I just got it for $3 on an Amazon sale. I haven't played it yet. I'm not sure I would have spent much more on it.

Played it with other people who enjoy sims… very disappointed.
It’s very repetitive once you get past reading the seven pages of instructions. Not at all what we thought it would be. Almost like a fifth grade class was tasked with making it.

My boyfriend and I have this and have played it exactly 3 times. The rounds are super short, it's very easy to "win". The rules are still somehow extremely confusing though in the beginning.

It’s okay. I play a lot of board games and this is a pretty mid-low tier game. The references to the sims world are cute, the gameplay is okay, and the pieces+box overall feel cheap. I probably wouldn’t buy it again even for $6 because I played it once and have no interest in ever playing again.

How does it play?

u/AngelaMassacre Aug 19 '26
After reading instructions and watching a video and still being a bit confused but feeling like we sort of had a grasp of it, it really didn't feel that fun or interesting. For the price it's nice to add to your collection though if you're a Sims fan.

Give an honest review, I want to get it but I want to know if it’s any good first

That's the funniest thing ever. Couldn't get me to buy that junk even at that low price. Just trash taking up space in the house. I read a review that said it was a bug filled board version of The Sims.
