The '''Create a World''' tool gives the player the ability to create and share unique new worlds for ''[[The Sims 3]]''. It allows players to create custom [[neighborhood]]s, just like in ''[[The Sims 2]]'', although in a more in-depth way. It was released on December 16, 2009 and is available to download for free from [[TheSims3.com]] if you have an account there. It is similar to the creation/terraforming [[tool]]s in ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimCity_4 SimCity 4]'' and the tools used by the game developers when creating neighborhoods for the game. This means that some of the features in the Create a World tool may not be simple to use and may not be very user-friendly. You can download or upload worlds on [[The Exchange]].
 
The Create a World tool is in beta mode, so it may still contain some bugs or glitches that have yet to be repaired. A fully [[The Sims 3/patch|patched]] version of ''The Sims 3'' is needed in order to use it.
