About this product

Product Information

"Apartment Life" was the final expansion pack for the "Sims 2" series of video games. Released in 2008, "Apartment Life" introduces the Sims to the joys and challenges of close living quarters. This gaming pack allows players to create unrelated families who share the same complex and interact with each other. With "The Sims 2: Apartment Life," players have the option of controlling multiple households, and up to four families can live in a single apartment building.Sims rent apartments from non-playable characters who come around on a weekly basis to collect the rent and perform necessary maintenance. Sims can lower their housing costs by living with roommates in an apartment. They can find roommates either by searching for them in newspapers or on their computers or phones. Roommates are not considered to be part of a Sim’s household, so players won’t be able to automatically control them. However, if your Sim builds relationships with a roommate, they can eventually get married, and then you can control both of the characters.This interesting add-on also allows Sims to use spells. In "Apartment Life," your witch and warlock characters keep their magical reagents in their personal inventories. Players can never predict whether the spells their Sims cast will have a positive, negative, or neutral effect. Magic Sims even have their own neighborhood you can explore with your favorite witch or warlock.“Apartment Life” introduces a host of new objects, skills, and emotional states into the Sim universe. Simulated characters can now break dance and Woo-Hoo in closets. They can die if a Murphy bed comes crashing down on them, leading to a new type of ghost that haunts your town. They can lock their front doors to keep nosy neighbors out. A new neighborhood called Belladonna Cove shipped with this expansion pack. Belladonna Cove is very diverse with a trailer park, an industrial area, artists’ lofts, and luxury mansions.“Apartment Life” also introduces the concept of social class to “The Sims 2” games. Every lot is now categorized as lower class, middle class, or upper class. Factors that determine class include the size of the lot, the cost of its furniture, and the population density around it. To showcase this feature, Electronic Arts introduced a whole new cast of non-playable townies. Townies are categorized as Gearheads, Jocks, Socialites, Techs, and Bohemians. In lower-class neighborhoods, residents of adjoining apartments will be Gearheads and Bohemians. In upper-class neighborhoods, your Sim family apartment will be surrounded by Techs and Socialites. Sims can also acquire social reputations depending upon how they interact with the characters around them."Apartment Life" is an add-on pack specially designed to work with "The Sims 2," which is required to use this gaming package. The game ships as a CD and is compatible with other “The Sims 2” expansions and stuff packs. This expansion pack has default compatibility with Windows98/Me and Windows 2000, and newer versions of Windows can use compatibility mode to access the game. This add-on for "The Sims 2” is also customized for Macs running the OS X Panther operating system. The game takes up approximately 1.2 gigabytes of space on your computer.

  • Sims 2 Apartment Life

    I enjoyed this game as I have enjoyed all Sims!! You can visit all the other apartments without waiting for the game to load like you do when you visit other places in your neighborhood in other expansions. I took the job of mascot llama in this game and just continued to wear the costume. What a life!

  • Great for new simers, or nostalgia

    Brings back memories of when I was in middle school. I loved the witches in the game, and wish they were in The Sims 4. I literally bought this to make a witch.
