Players may choose to make walls invisible or have them cut away when selected with the mouse, so that they may better view the interior of a home. Players can also rotate the camera around by using the icons or adjust which part of the house they are viewing by moving the mouse pointer in the direction they wish to view. Once a Sim is selected they can be ordered to do various things, such as speaking to another Sim or using an object by clicking on objects or other Sims and selecting from a menu of available commands. Players control Sims by selecting them with the mouse either directly or by using the icon. Icons are also available for switching between your different Sims, viewing their job performance and checking their relationships with other Sims. The display features various indicator bars for Hunger, Comfort, Hygiene, Bladder, Energy, Fun, Social and Room. On the right side of the screen are displays which indicate the mood of your Sims. Other icons are available for saving your game, setting game options, taking pictures of your Sims activities, adjusting the camera angle, switching stories for houses with multiple floors and changing the game speed. The major icons allow the player to select between live mode (the mode where your Sims are going about their daily lives), build mode (the mode where you can build new houses or additions to your existing houses), and buy mode (the mode for buying new objects and furnishings for your Sims homes).

On the bottom left corner of the screen are a variety of icons for selecting various aspects of the game to control.

Once your Sims are moved into their new home, you are ready to start controlling them directly and the real gameplay begins. Once again, this is accomplished by clicking on icons located at the bottom of your screen. Once you have your Sims created and named, you can then either move them into a pre-made house or buy an empty plot of land on which to build them a house of their own.

You also select your SimвЂ™s skin color, hair color and style, facial features, and clothing at this stage. The number of points you allocate to each attribute determines your SimвЂ™s personality and astrological sign.

If you choose to create your own Sims you can assign them various points in neat, outgoing, active, playful, and nice by clicking the plus or minus signs on the indicator bars for each Sim. You can make this selection by clicking on various icons at the bottom of the neighborhood (opening) screen. You begin by either selecting a pre-made family or creating your own. The interface for House Party is the same as for the previous installments of The Sims. While the first expansion pack, LivinвЂ™ Large, focused mainly on adding new items, career tracks, and NPCs, the main focus of the House Party expansion pack is to make it easier for Sims to socialize by, as you might have guessed, giving them the ability to throw parties. House Party is the second expansion pack for The Sims.

Obviously, since the original Sims is still topping the PC games sales charts, IвЂ™m not the only one. However, once I did try it I was instantly hooked. I must admit that all of this seemed rather a weird idea for a game to me at first and I resisted trying it for a long time. Players also must manage such every day activities as making sure their Sims eat, sleep, exercise, have fun, take care of their hygiene, remain comfortable, and go to the bathroom. Players can build houses, create families, and buy a variety of objects and furnishings to make their Sims' lives more interesting. The Sims broke from the tradition of focusing on constructing places for Sims to live and instead assigned players the task of managing the Sims themselves. The majority of these games involve building cities or other such things and attempting to keep the various inhabitants of these places happy. IвЂ™m sure most of you are familiar with the SimCity variety of Maxis games.
