The Sims FreePlay



The Sims FreePlay is a free-to-play iOS, Android and Windows Phone game from FireMonkey Studios. It was released worldwide on December 15, 2011 for iOS and February 15, 2012 for Android. An Amazon Kindle Fire version was released on September 27, 2012 and a Windows Phone 8 version was released on September 14, 2013. It is the first Sims game released on the iPad. It differs from the regular Sims game in that it uses regular time. For example, in a normal The Sims PC game, 1 hour of game time is one minute. However, in FreePlay, 1 hour really is one hour. On July 21, 2014 Firemonkeys Studios announced there will be no further updates on the Windows Phone 8.

Release

The game was early released in the Singapore App Store on December 1, 2011, weeks before the official iOS release. The same day, official Facebook page for the game was created. Previews, sneak peeks and polls posted on the page lead to the launch trailer and the game was available worldwide in the App Store on December 15, 2011. Much anticipated game was released for Android players two months later. Soon after the Pre-Teen update, the game team revealed that the game is coming to Kindle Fire.

In December 2012, EA released the highlights from the first year, since the official launch of the game a year ago. An interview with producer was also released that time in honor of its first anniversary.

Trivia

 * The Sims FreePlay is the third game in The Sims series to require an Internet connection (the first is The Sims Online and the second being The Sims Social).
 * The Sims FreePlay is the first game to receive an MA15+ for "strong crude humour" by the Australian Classification Board, which prevents minors under 15 years from getting the game without a parent or an adult guardian (all previous Sims games have been rated M or lower, which are advisory ratings).
 * Originally, FreePlay used The Sims 3&#39;s logo with the difference being that 3 next to The Sims was omitted and replaced with FreePlay, The Sims itself is also higher on the Plumbob compared to TS3. As of version 5.15.2 (Christmas 2015), FreePlay now uses The Sims 4&#39;s logo, the difference also being that the 4 next to The Sims was replaced with FreePlay. The new logo also omits the string and hole next to FreePlay.
 * Another change is the Plumbob was changed to the one used in The Sims 4.
 * FreePlay's Time feature originated from the DS version of The Sims 2.
 * FreePlay is the first game not to use the name Child for a life stage. Instead, the game's equivalent of children are called Pre-Teens. However, this does not make Child the first life stage in The Sims series to have its name changed, as Elders have been renamed Seniors.
 * FreePlay is the first The Sims game to support the iPad's fullscreen.
 * FreePlay is the first game to have more than 8 Sims being able to be controlled at the same time without having to change a household, although pets cannot be controlled.
 * FreePlay is the first game that has a changing icon.
 * FreePlay is updated every 6 weeks.
 * FreePlay uses sound effects from The Sims 3 PC.
 * There are lots of NPCs in Freeplay, players have control over every created Sim in the town. All Sims in the town are added by the players with the exception of Sims you help with quests. I.e. Osiris (a space alien), Bree, the park ranger, and others.
 * All workplaces (except the profession workplaces) and the school are rabbit holes.
