The Sims Social

The Sims Social is a Facebook app that came out recently. Its first wall post was on Monday June 6th, 2011 (6 June 2011).

Description
''The Sims Social brings the fun and creativity of The Sims to Facebook! Create unique Sims and live out their dreams—or stir up trouble by pulling pranks. Develop deep relationships to unlock new features and advance: befriend and fight, date and cheat, love and betray. Play with life in a whole new way—with your real friends, for free.''

The Sims Social is a Facebook game made by Playfish and EA. The Sims Social takes part in a town called Littlehaven. A mobile application for smartphones is also in development as a companion app to the Facebook version, which will be available on the current generation of smartphones.

The game also features remakes of real life famous people such as Elvis Plumbob and Marisim Monroe.

Characters

 * Macy - A Sim who helps the player to earn money
 * Bella Goth - A tutorial Sim.
 * Barbara Belle - A fitness instructor Sim who can be seen around town.
 * Gustav Heimlich - A spiritual counselor who has moved from Europe.

Features
The Sims Social has features that all Sims games have.
 * Sims can become friends, loved ups, old enemies, best friends forever (BFF), enemies and archenemies.
 * Every time you gain a new relationship status you will get a pop-up.
 * If your Sims are enemies or archenemies they will do following things:
 * Kick your trashcan.
 * Fight with your Sim.
 * Steal food from other Sims.
 * Slap you.
 * Build and Buy Mode are similar to the other Sims' games modes; you can buy things, build houses and place furniture.
 * There are 5 different personalities, which are similar to traits in The Sims 3. They are:
 * Geek - You name a sci-fi series, and this Sim will have the limited edition boxset with included artbook.
 * Creative - Creative Sims yearn to capture the hidden beauty of life. They also enjoy cross stitching.
 * Villain - Would sell their own granny for kicks, then buy her back just so they could sell her again.
 * Socialite - Socialite Sims are either the center of attention or they're elbowing their way into it.
 * Rocker - Masters of the air guitar and singing in the shower. May ever learn a real instrument one day.
 * Introvert - More likely to be found in deep thought than deep conservation, introverts prefer their own company.
 * Tycoon - For tycoon Sims, money isn't everything. It's MUCH more important than that.
 * Athlete - Life isn't a journey to an athletic Sim, it's a triathlon, and they're determined to get 1st place.
 * Romantic - Falling in love comes as easily to them as their natural charm. Just don't go breaking their hearts.
 * Events that happen in the game can be shared on your profile and others.

Traits
There are traits featured in The Sims Social, which are buyable with simoleons.
 * List of traits
 * Slob - Slobs are relatively unconcerned by mess and even thrive in filth... much to other Sims' desmay
 * Steel Bladder - Stay inspired longer with less bathroom breaks
 * Neat - Put the fast in fastidious, they love keeping things clean and do it without delay
 * SuperMechanic - The kind of Sim you could lock in a garage and they'd come smashing out in a car made of hammers.
 * Insane - Insane Sims may be silly, dangerous or downright bonkers but they're never, ever dull.
 * Ogre - The very last Sim you'd ever, ever want to invite to a dinner party. Ever.
 * Ninja - Just like ninjas of old, super fast and able to teleport.
 * Great Kisser - Great kissers tend to have more success than the rest.
 * Night Owl - Stay inspired longer as Night Owl Sims need less sleep than the most. 

Trivia

 * Bella Goth appears as your neighbor. You can interact with her but you can't control her.
 * Unlike previous Sims games, various Sims can be in one bathtub at the same time.
