Veronaville’s characters are based on Shakespearean characters. Strangetown’s storyline is based on the supernatural, and is loosely connected with Pleasantview. Pleasantview is based 25 years after the town in the original The Sims.

Although gameplay is not linear, storylines exist in the game’s pre-built neighborhoods. The Sims 2 builds on its predecessor by allowing Sims to age through six stages of life and incorporating a 3D graphics engine. All Sims age, and can live to 90 sim days depending on the degree to which their aspirations are fulfilled. Sims have life goals, wants and fears, the fulfillment of which can produce both positive or negative outcomes. The Sims 2, like its predecessor, does not have a defined final goal gameplay is open-ended. The game has the same concept as its predecessor: players control their Sims in various activities and form relationships in a manner similar to real life. The Sims 2 is a 2004 strategic life simulation video game developed by Maxis and published by Electronic Arts. The Sims™ 2: Super Collection (MacOS) delivers all of the award winning content from the original plus the addition of 6 expansion packs, and 3 “stuff”:Įnglish, spanish, italian, german, french, japanese
