I've played the Sims for years, and I played this when it first came out, many moons ago. I thought I'd give it another try since I love the building aspect of the Sims. This game has the potential to be a fun, enjoyable game where you can spend time seeing your city flourish. However, and it's a big one, this game suffers due to the lack of progression... unless you buy. Unfortunately, what I want to say goes over 500 characters, so I'll just say that I would not recommend downloading this game
