A Great Game That Needs Improvement – The Sims™ FreePlay Review

I love this game! I have been playing the game since it first debuted. It has come a very long way from where it started. Here are suggestions for appealing to your gamers: Babies and Toddlers should have more hobbies and quests. They should also have more hairstyles and clothing options too. I feel like a game based on reality should have real things in the game. Such as; mother/father and baby able to lay on the bed, cuddle together, sit or lay with their toddlers in bed or the couch. I think high chairs should be updated, and more toys for both babies and toddlers. Preteens should have more styles of hair, clothing, and interactions with certain age groups and other preteens. They should also be able to interact with babies and do tasks like dishes, cooking, etc. Preteens NEED more furniture and decorations. They should have toys to play with because that is realistic. Maybe even more makeup styles as well. Teenagers should NOT have to break up into adulthood after maxing out the romance as a teenager. It makes zero sense. They should have more bed styles that range between younger teen and almost-adult teen furniture, clothing (including shoes & makeup), and hairstyles. Teens should be able to get pregnant and take a pregnancy test. Adults should have more job options, male adults need more outfits and stylish clothes and hair. They are often left out. I think in the hospital you should make it so Sims you play can go there without working as a nurse or doctor. Pregnant female sims should have the option of giving birth at the hospital too. As for other things they have promotions, drive, and more interactions. Seniors are fun and cute to play as, but like the male sims, they are left out. They don't have enough hairstyle options, or clothes (including shoes, outfits, pls, and swimsuits). Seniors don’t have many quests or much do besides dying :( and I think they should be able to go into the bingo hall, on vacation, and have more interactions, not with just each other but with different age groups including their grandchildren. Game suggestions: The game is great and apart of my favorite franchise. I just don’t feel like the Sims FreePlay game developers listen to their community at all. I mean on somethings, yes. There are so many things being implemented as the game goes on. • Timed actions/interactions - I am an avid gamer, I like to create storylines but when I have to wait long minutes it's annoying... Especially for interactions. Most players don't have the time, unfortunately, to play all day. • Pregnancy Event - As a Simmer, I dread pregnancy events. Not only do they take a long time, but the support tasks are not fun at all. I find myself spam clicking an object repeatedly, and not feeling excited about the prize because the tasks are draining. I think that they should be done up to 5 times and have a wider variety of tasks to do. I think a shoe category for expecting moms should be added. Most pregnant women irl do not wear heels. Maybe add comfy slippers or shoes that also match outfits. Not saying completely disregard heels altogether. Roofing/Siding Designs - When designing a house we should be able to have more options than just the same ones from forever ago. Need upgraded options! Patio/Balcony Flooring - We need more designs and textures!! Fences/Gate Doors - Please when added more options, add the door that matches! And we need more options! Quests - Instead of stopping quests midway and making players wait until holidays, and live events, continue adding more! I love storylines and think it's an enormous part of connecting with your sims! Mall - Update and add more! We are so desperate!! Add more things to do! More Prebuilt Places - We would like game expansion! Not to mention NPC’s it would make the game so much more exciting when you don't have to send your own sims to be a desk clerk or an extra. A Lot More Lots - I hate deleted favorite builds to accommodate new stories and/or added event builds. AR Mode/ Playable Angles - the angles make it so difficult to snap the perfect photo. The AR mode is great!! Although not very user friendly. It is so difficult to use and I don't use it simply because of that. LP/SP/Simoleons - most players don't have time to collect loads of simoleons, LP, or SP. It's a major problem with new players. Upgraded Town Look - Society in the world is always evolving and it would be nice if Sims FreePlay did that too! Bed Options - There need to be more actions with this object! Food - more breakfast options altogether! First Person Mode - This should be looked into! Graphics - They need higher quality game graphics. I’m not saying Sims 4 graphics but you know what I mean. The Sims FreePlay is a great game that just needs updates on the game specifically and the developers should try to listen to the community. I understand you can't change or add everything I listed, but you might want to take some notes on the things we SFP players ask for. I don't ever write reviews and I hope you as the developers and creators of this successful game start listening. Most of us don't like to make suggestions for no one to listen to. Thank you for many great years of Simming and cheers to many more!
