The Goth family: 11 things all The Sims addicts will remember fondly

by

An iconic household staple back in 2004, every house with a clunky PC and one of those massive leather computer chairs had to have the latest version of The Sims. 

Whether you were a fan of The Sims 1,2,3 or 4, here are some of our fondest moments in the game: 

11. Perfecting your family tree was an art, and when you got further than three or four generations, your heart warmed a little. 

10. Convincing yourself you had mad architectural skills after building a nice gaff.

9. Wanting to throw your PC out the window when your Sim set the kitchen on fire AGAIN.

8. Woo-hooing. Enough said.

7. Cheating like you have never cheated before. How else could you build that mansion your Sim family deserves without motherload. 

6. SHRIEKING at your parents to please please please get you that expansion pack… especially the Pets one.

5. Up-skilling your Sims was a national hobby – and when you got to level 10 on any skill, it felt like waking up on Christmas morning.

4. If your computer crashed (as many PCs did back in the day) you could lose LITERAL YEARS of your Sims life. Not ideal.

3. Strangetown was where s*** got weird. Anyone else remember those guys who were pregnant with the alien babies?

2. Murdering your unwanted Sims was not only acceptable, but encouraged. Especially if it involved drowning them in the swimming pool or just building a door-less room around them. 

1. On a related note, flirting and falling in love with the ghosts of said dead Sims was also not only acceptable, but encouraged.
