It’s uncannily – but not surprisingly – extremely like The Sims. Their hygiene, energy, hunger and so forth gradually become worse until they shower, eat, and sleep, to name a few things. You never really have access to anything outside the house, and when your people leave the house for work, you don’t go with them. You pick a family (or, in this case, roommates), move into an empty home, fill it up with goods, keep your characters content, and improve their relationships with each other. Singles: Flirt Up Your Life is in fact the only game I can think of that closely resembles The Sims. It is surprising that there really aren’t as many Sims-esque games slapped together for a quick buck as one might think, then (barring the game’s many expansion packs). The key is that people can relate to the Sims they do everyday normal things, they have households similar to our own, and they act in a manner that we can, to some degree, relate to. While I am not personally a huge fan of the series, as I believe it becomes fairly repetitive after a few hours, one must give The Sims some respect for being a game that your mom or sister will sit down and enjoy, whereas most games are not that interesting to the general public. Having sold millions of copies, the series appeals to just about everyone. ![]()
