Riverview

Riverview is a free downloadable town offered from The Sims 3 store. The town was developed by Visceral Games. The town is a gift for people who register their copy of The Sims 3. It was the first town made available for download, and is currently the only free downloadable town. The town initially served as an incentive for players to purchase, rather than pirate, their copy of The Sims 3, as pirated versions are unable to download Riverview from TheSims3.com.

Trivia

 * Riverview and Riverblossom Hills share the same farm/country effect and Riverview has a street named "Riverblossom Hills Drive".
 * In some empty houses on Cypress Lane, there is a Sloppy Jalopy in the garage.
 * The "Mine Monster" can be viewed on the southeast side of the map.
 * 22.2% of playable Sims in Riverview are elders, making Riverview the most elderly-populated neighborhood in The Sims 3 series. (compared to Sunset Valley (4.5%), Twinbrook (9.1%), Barnacle Bay (12.1%), Bridgeport (3%), and Hidden Springs (4%).
 * Riverview is the only downloadable town not to have The Sims 3 in its name so when viewed in The Sims 3 Store, it will display The Sims 3 logo. As of Barnacle Bay, The Sims 3 has been added to the town's name (i.e. The Sims 3 Barnacle Bay, The Sims 3 Hidden Springs, etc.).
 * All events in Riverview take place before The Sims 2. However, this is not the case for Don Lothario. His story clearly follows on from the events that took place in The Sims 2.
