A goofy ass game for very unserious people. The plot in this one is quite simple; couch surf until you reach the highest success while helping your neighbors KILL their landlord. It's awesome.

I like the Sims spin-offs so much and this one is also a groovy time, but I found it lacking it's own unique style in comparison to The Urbz. (Aside from the music, that part slaps.)

The short campaign is fun to get through once but I wouldn't dabble past that unless you care to have all of the reward furniture for Freeplay. It gets quite repetitive afterwards, and if I'm being honest, I don't particularly care for Freeplay Sims in a console game. If I wanted to play Freeplay Sims, I'd just do it on the mainline PC games. I just like that the campaigns in these games give us something different from Freeplay.

My only real complaint is that it's incredibly annoying to maintain friendships in this game because it seems like almost everyone is just enraged at all times. Lack of friendships affects your ability to get promoted and it's a pain in the ass. It's also a random story beat that your Sim gets married and has a child, but they offer nothing other than just being more characters to take care of while you're already tearing your hair out trying to keep your Sim in a good enough mood to keep their job they work at 7 DAYS A WEEK, God bless their soul.

I inadvertently stumbled into a soft exploit last time I played it that felt like very funny social commentary - my character worked on themselves while living with their mom for an extended period of time.
