Description
Ruthless. Cunning. Brilliant. Ridiculously wealthy. These are just a few words the locals use to describe the Landgraab Family, whose entrepreneurial ambitions can’t be stopped by anything but their own mistakes. When you have this much money, you're your own worst enemy.

The Landgraabs are really grabby...

The Landgraabs are a brilliant and wealthy dynasty that currently resides in Bluewater Village. The family name is sometimes spelled "Landgrabb". Landgraab Industries is featured prominently in both building names in SimCity 3000 and brand names for objects in The Sims.

In Sims 1, one of the default Downtown lots in Hot Date is Landgraab Mall. Some items and places in Hot Date and Vacation refer to an Admiral Landgraab. Admiral Landgraab's first name is not given, and his relationship to the Malcolm Landgraab IV of Bluewater Village is unknown.

On the PlayStation 2, Xbox and Gamecube games of The Sims Bustin' Out a Malcolm Landgraab is the richest man around. As he takes items of importance and interest, his surname could be indicative of his grabby nature.

In The Sims 2: University, one of the dorms at Sim State University is named "Landgrabb House", and the Secret Society is known as the "Landgrabb Society". The connections, whether past or present, between the family and Sim State are not mentioned.
