Today we’re discussing the iconic video game series, “The Sims,” where players can simulate buckets of lives and lifestyles in a charming, funny, simulated world peopled with NPC characters, fantasy monsters, and magical environments. This game contains resource and emotional management mechanics as well as commercial actions that players use to advance in the game (and maybe to reflect real physical and emotional systems). What is a game? And what can this game teach you about living a better life? Can a simulation serve as practice for navigating your own reality? And who are you when you play a game where you can be anyone or do anything without consequences? We’ll share how we play the game, how popular streamers play, and what different play styles may communicate about your inner world. Join us!
