    Great app and it's for free bad thing though that everything is so expensive and it get boring sometimes I find it terrible that if you want to create new characters you have to build a expensive house

    I love this game! But the only thing I would change about it is that there's not enough hairstyles to try to make someone that you know, also the teens need to be able to turn into adults so they can have jobs and get married too. But overall I give it a 8 out of 10

    This game is starting to border on the ridiculous. 1st...it freezes up and my tasks NOT completed and if I use LP...ie, baking a cake, they are lost. Also,. the ridiculous fire pole goal.Neighbors have staris...no fire pole. Or, a 'functional fire pole'...no stairs. THEY ALL COST TOO MUCH!!!!!! AS DOES THE SECOND FLOOR. Also, how many times do you do a goal over and over???? Teens learningThis game is starting to border on the ridiculous. 1st...it freezes up and my tasks NOT completed and if I use LP...ie, baking a cake, they are lost. Also,. the ridiculous fire pole goal.Neighbors have staris...no fire pole. Or, a 'functional fire pole'...no stairs. THEY ALL COST TOO MUCH!!!!!! AS DOES THE SECOND FLOOR. Also, how many times do you do a goal over and over???? Teens learning to drive...6 hours. I am on my 10th TRIP EACH FOR 2 TEENS!!!! Ridiculous. Tasks that take OVER and hour and cost OVER 25,000.00 Simoleans are ridiculous. Also, supposed to ride an inflatable pool toy at a neighbors house (and you are wrong...myself and several friends have to COMPLETE The joyride. It does NOT give it to you as soon as you get on!). I have done the 4 min ride.....twice. The 60 minute ride...twice. The joyride....AGAIN!!!! Still says it is a task....???? What started out as a fun gun game is NO LONGER as fun....sad to say. Toying with quitting...for the 2nd and FINAL time. Also, my tasks are NOT color coordinated for age groups as you mention. Also, what is the deal with the teen sign and the island places???? Sims Free play with it's exhorbitant pricing...too long time limits and constant freezing should be called "Maybe Play Definitely Not Free Sims'. Absurd!… Expand

    This game is horrible. Very bad animated, full of bugs, the Sims are ugly, the things are in real time, you have to wait 8 HOURS just for your Sim come from work, you can't speed up the game, and you have to BUILD the things, not only create a Sim and move it. HOR-RI-BLE.

    La verdad que este juego me pareció una belleza. Es super divertido y super personalizable. Obviamente no es como The Sims original, pero para ser un juego FreeToPlay está de maravilla.

    The "real time" game play is so boring. If you send your Sim to work for 8 hours, it will literally take 8 hours. Want your Sim to watch TV for an hour? Yes, it takes 1 hour.
    I quit playing after one day.

    Limited customization and the Sims look really ugly. You get bored easily because there is not a lot to do in this disappointing game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I just want to say that the pregnancy event is way too much, who throws up fo 5+ hours, then has to do 6+ hours of yoga, eat for 4 talk on the phone for 2, plus more there's not enough hours in a day. It's not fun at all...… Expand

    The game is brilliant! However the slow progression and the annoying pop ups lower the rating.

    I like it so much. The game is funny, and with the updates you always have something to do. Also, with the last update, the upgraded the graphics, and now they are so much better.

    The best Sims game on iOS, particularly if you're playing on iPad. It's just as addictive as the other good freemium titles out there (Tiny Towers, Smurfs Village) even if it does take a bit of grinding to get anywhere.

    The Sims gameplay holds up well, but the slow pace and repetition keeps this freemium game from being the best in its class.

    The Sims Freeplay is not free and honestly is not even "play". Indeed you actually can't play it if you don't want to spend money for getting all the actions complete. We found this slow gameplay really frustrating and we hope that EA will listen to the users.
