game play

Okay, so I played it (just before my daughter took over--lol)
From a creative point of view---
It looks like we\'re starting with base game stuff all over again. There is a guitar in it, the only instrument.
The view of the horizon is beautiful, but when in play mode in your house it looks a lot like sims 1-their movements are like sims 1-like cardboard figures.
There is option to change the theme/color/patterns of each object.
I haven\'t figured out how to use the bike yet, but when you want to go somewhere you click on \'m\' it will show you a map, and many icons to click on. A taxi will show up and take you to that new lot. The only one I\'ve gone to yet is the beach, (gorgeous view-even the waves you see the spray hitting behind the rocks from where you are!) and all they did was cook on the grill and talk to two people.
In create a sim you have many many options to make a sim, but it will take a lot of practice to do my celebrity sims again! LOL they have Thigh High Boots!!!!!
motherlode works very well in it! The paper boy/girl puts the paper down and runs off! You see other sims in the neighborhood coming out, but then daughter is on it so I haven\'t played that part yet!
So now you have a \'so far\' glimpse of the game. We are still seeing tutorials so it explains a lot of what happens in the game--you can\'t get too lost in there!
Good luck, and thank you for all your answers to my questions. I\'ll wait on the exchange stuff to see what\'s up with that!
hugs,
Skye
