I played SimCity way back in 1989 when I was 10. I know it's not a Sims game per se, but it's where it started. I remember Will Wright saying something about wondering what all the little Sim people in SimCity were doing and that's where the idea started. SimCity 2000 (which actually came out in 1993) was my favorite after school/work activity until I moved out of my parents house. In 2000 my husband and I were visiting my sister at her apartment and she showed me Sims 1 on her PC. We bought it for console. We also bought all the others- Bustin' Out, Urbz, Sims 2. After I'd played Sims 2 on the console for awhile, my husband got it on PC for me. I also played Sims 3 until 2019. I bought Sims 4 in 2014 but didn't like it and didn't come back to it until 2019. Now I go back and forth between 2&4.
