}}In ''The Sims'' series, a '''game over''' occurs when there are no more playable Sims in a household. This can be caused by [[death]], or when there are only children and/or pets living after adults or teens die.
 
==The Sims==
Line 19 ⟶ 22:
The message will appear with the Grim Reaper's icon if all Sims are dead and The Finale message is shown, but if there are children that lived and were taken away resulting in The Orphanage Awaits message to display, the message will not show the Grim Reaper's icon.
 
If there are pets when all of the older Sims die, an Animalanimal Controlcontrol officer will take them away, with a quote from the officer saying "These poor pets no longer have an owner to take care of them. I'm taking them to the neighborhood Pet Adoption Center.". There isare no unique messagemessages for this,; instead it will be '''"The Finale'''" or '''"The Orphanage Awaits'''", depending on if there were children in the family when theythe pets got taken away.
 
===Possible Quotes===
Line 28 ⟶ 31:
====The Orphanage Awaits====
*Children are really very sturdy folk. Just read any Dicken's novel and the thought of children being taken to an orphanage should really warm your heart. Of course, they'll have to endure the strife and hard knock life at first, but they'll inevitably be adopted by some wealthy benefactor, right?
*Death is always tragic, especially when its direct effects touch one as young as these. However, even more tragic, is the fact that the SimCity Orphan Tax Collection Agency will be placing this estate up for sale in order to cover the cost orof orphan care going forward. There go the dreams of growing up and discovering a huge and unknown inheritance for yet another orphan...
*The SimCity Home for Orphaned Youth has really come a long way in the last few decades, so there's no reason to worry about these little ones. Why it was merely 10 years ago that they were serving reconstituted gruel cooked over tire fires, and look at them now! The gruel and the smell of burnt rubber remains strong, but the average managerial wages have risen 30%, and their first initial public offering looks to be strong!
 
==The Sims 3==
''The Sims 3'' has a game over screen known as '''The End...?'''. Clicking on the checkmark brings the player to the neighborhood view. If the game over happens due to the death of teen Sims or older and children are left, the '''Social Worker Coming''' dialouge appears. 
If all Sims die away from their home world (such as traveling in a destination world or in university), the player has the option to continue playing the save file in the home world or return to the main menu. The surviving household members, if any, will be left with the "Mourning" moodlet once the player returns to the home world. Otherwise, it is a game over and the player goes to neighborhood view.
