Some traits included from the developing stage of ''The Sims 3'' that were removed for the computer version, such as [[Shy]] (later to be re-introduced in ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]''), Conversationalist and Vain. Traits that are only in the mobile version are Conversationalist, Vain, Modest and Active. Fewer lifetime wishes. The game ends when a lifetime wish is fulfilled, unlike the computer series of The Sims, which is completely open-ended.

The pack included Live it or Wear it Sets with Vampires and Werewolves, Castle and Campus Life themes. “Live it” sets contain car, furniture, decoration, wallpaper, and flooring. “Wear it” sets contain clothing, new CAS options, and hair styles.[<ref>http://www.thesims3.com/community/news.html?selMonth=10&selYear=2009]</ref> ~~{{clrr}}~~ ==Expansions== EA seems to be following the same path they are with the computer series coming out with [[The Sims 3 World Adventures (Smartphone)\|''World Adventures'']], [[The Sims 3 Ambitions (Smartphone)\|''Ambitions'']] and [[The Sims 3 Supernatural (Smartphone)\|''Supernatural'']]. They are all in someway related to the corresponding expansion packs for the computer. ==~~The~~ Sims== Nina Brock Ruth▼ Johnny Bernie Theresa Luke (Traits: Shy, Good Sense of Humor, Natural Cook, Active) Luke Maggie Jake Line 66 ⟶ 65: Walter Kia Marcell (Traits: Natural Cook, Easily Bored, Vain, Active) Mashell Jill ▲Ruth * Margaret ==Careers== Line 77 ⟶ 79: ==Other buildings and locations== Pawnshop - It can be unlocked once all the goals are completed.

There are 3 housing updates. First Update - Gives four plots of land to grow crops and a new room plus bigger spaces in existing rooms. Second Update - More rooms, bigger rooms and more garden space. Third Update - More rooms and bigger rooms, plus more windows and doors. {{expand}} ==Trivia== ''The Sims 3 Collectors Edition'' was also released but not on iPhone, or any other smartphone except Samsung Vibrant Galaxy S.{{Confirm}} * Ruth can be based on Grandma Ruthie from ''[[MySims]]'' because she and Ruth have the same looks and their names also match. * ''The Sims 3'' is optimized for the iPhone 5 with an update. It was later optimized for iPad and iOS 9 with a separate update. The game featured brief special event images during certain important moments in a sim's life, such as getting a new job, first kiss, and first woohoo. This is reminiscent of the special event camera in ''[[The Sims 2]]''. The game featured a few unique music tracks, such as during the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sis8u0a9exM loading] and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP9Aq46OZvk main menu] screens. ==Gallery== <gallery widths="185"> ~~File:~~Sims 3 iPhone Screenshot.jpg\|Game ~~screenshoot~~screenshot from iPhone version ~~file:the~~The sims 3 or blackberry logo.jpg\|The Sims 3 for Blackberry logo ~~file:TS3Android_CAS1~~TS3Android CAS1.jpg\|CAS (Android) ~~file:TS3Android_CentralPark~~TS3Android CentralPark.jpg\|Neighborhood view (Android) 1DDD5DA2-EEF8-46C8-A22A-60EFE5623DFD.jpeg\|Home Screen </gallery> ==Video== <gallery> ~~Video~~File:The Sims 3 iPhone Trailer\|The Sims 3 iPhone Trailer </gallery> ==External links== *[{{Wayback\|url=http://www.eamobile.com/iphone-games/the-sims-3 \|title=The Sims 3 for iPhone & iPod touch]\|date=20130615031820}} == References== <references /> {{Sims}} [[ru:The Sims 3 (на смартфонах)]] [[Category:The Sims 3]] [[Category:Mobile games]] [[Category:Shut down games]]
