About this product

Product Information

The Sims 3: Generations is an expansion pack for The Sims 3 that introduces the notion of developmental phases into your virtual Sim universe. The Sims 3 offers an open-ended gaming environment in which players create their own simulations of families and neighborhoods. By emphasizing chronological distinctions, Generations makes the interactions among Sims more nuanced and entertaining. Released in 2011, Generations was the fourth expansion pack for The Sims 3, but you do not need the previous expansion packs to play this one. You only need the original The Sims 3 game to make full use of this pack. The game comes on a disk that can be played on both Macs and PCs.With Generations, simulated characters can now react to the world in highly specific ways that reflect their chronological age. An infant can be given a doll that metamorphoses into an imaginary friend that no one else can see. Child characters can play in tree houses and dress up in costumes they found in their toy chests. Adolescents can throw parties when their parents are not home and play rebellious pranks on other characters. Just like teens in the real world, adolescent Sims are prone to extreme mood swings. Players can control direct their avatars to do some of these behaviors, but Sims will also do them autonomously.There are seven chronological stages in The Sims 3: Baby, Toddler, Teen, Young Adult, Adult, and Elder. Each Sim year corresponds to a certain number of days in a Sim character’s life. Of course, these only amount to minutes or hours for someone playing the game. Players can adjust the time their Sims spend in each life stage. Parents gain the ability to punish children and adolescents for bad behavior by grounding them or making them do chores. If the younger members of the household get too far out of control, they can be sent away to boarding school. Both kids and adolescents can participate in after-school activities, which helps them learn useful life skills.Since so much of a young person's focus revolves around romance, Generations features several new romantic interactions. Simulated characters have many more opportunities to flirt, and their dates are scored numerically. Higher scores mean rewards for players and relationship growth for characters. Adults might also be visited with a Mid-Life Crisis, which lasts six full Sim days and makes the Sim wish for a divorce, a new job, or a new car. Any wishes fulfilled during this Mid-Life Crisis give bonus Lifetime Happiness points that can be exchanged for unique rewards like teleportation or no more household bills.The Sims 3 addition also includes a host of objects, behaviors, and Create-a-Sim features. Males can now sport body hair, while elders can use canes that increase the speed of their gait. Two character traits are introduced to the game: nurturing and rebelliousness. This Sims 3 expansion pack also introduced a new Day Care profession into the game so your avatar can stay home and earn Simoleons caring for infants and toddlers. Generations brings many additional features to the universe of The Sims 3. Family interactions are stronger than ever with a host of fresh animations and wishes. Let your imagination blossom as your role-playing and storytelling games gain more options with this expansion.

    Excellent Expansion

    The Sims 3: Generations is by far one of the best Sims expansions to date. Unlike most of the $20 expansions, this one offers a variety of new items and new opportunities. Ever wanted to film or photograph your Sims children as they grow up? Ever wanted to properly decorate for a wedding, or have an actual wedding gown as an option? Wanted to sign your kids up for ballet or scouting? With this Sims 3 expansion pack, you can do all of these things. There are also options for your teenage sims to pull rebellious stunts, pranks, go to prom, and also get grounded. There's a lot of options offered with this expansion, and I honestly think this would have been a much better option to come with the base game than, say...Late Night.
