It's not your average slam-bang, action-packed, and loud video game, but the life simulation game "The Sims 4" is still a big hit, particularly among the more laid back and easy-going gamers.
In fact Christian Today describes "The Sims" franchise developed by EA Maxis as an epic.
"What makes it more of the players' dream is the fact that it has not held off but actually boosted up the magic of cheats in its newest installment. It's almost like a tradition," the site said.
Just like its first three predecessors, "The Sims 4" has the same gameplay. Players create a Sim character and explore various personalities which more or less determine how the game plays out. Sims are capable of multitasking too. Their moods can also affect the gameplay.
When the gameplay trailer was launched in August, the game carried the hype: "New Emotion. New Tools. New Sims. Come to Life in The Sim 4."

The video game also features new room-customization tools, a surprisingly powerful Gallery, and a rundown of the emotions that govern the Sims' every interaction, Polygon added.
Additional social features have also been incorporated on "The Sims 4" including importing Sims and houses other players have made into one's game, which impacts the world around the player's Sims.
