THIS!

I just purchased “Get Together” this weekend because I thought that it would all TONS of new gameplay to my game regarding group activities but there isn’t really anything exciting to do.

I think board games would be great! You could place them on the floor or on a table where a group of up to four sims can play at a time.

Also, we need another game console because I’m not buying “City Living” just for that. #sorrynotsorry

I can’t think of anymore group interactive activities at the moment.

I don't blame you, but I do enjoy City Living. It's not for everyone though. San Myshuno is the town where I have the most played families.

I think coffee tables should be usable as game tables. And games should be items that can be stored in your sims inventory.

$2 for a pack of cards, a budget game option.
$10 for a portable chess set.
$50 for simopoly (monopoly) or scribble (pictionary), or the core rule book for the pen and paper game 'There's a dragon in the dungeon!'

I tend to give my sims all the fun activities for them to do, the chess table, game table, foosball, video game system, etc. The only one the tend to use without me telling them is the gaming system.

I don't know what it is about electronic systems, but sim are innately drawn to them. It's irksome when you have someone visiting and all they wanna do is play games on your computer.

I put my computer in a room and lock the door for everyone but family to keep visitors out,

How about a Sims Twister game.

Not entirely sure how they'd create something like that, but something you could spread out on a table and possibly keep in your inventory. What other things would you like to see for groups of sims to do when they get together?

I would love board games played by groups of sims B)
Yes you should be able to play cards in a group. that's just lazy of them.
