The Sims is a spin-off of the SimCity series, and was created by SimCity creator and Maxis co-founder Will Wright. The residential lot that individual Sims or families call home can be upgraded both in terms of the structure ( Build Mode) and the furniture that occupies it ( Buy Mode), with limitations on lot space. Sims have a degree of free will, but not enough to be considered completely independent (and even this limited free will can be disabled). Sims require direction, via mouse inputs, in order to have their needs met and live their lives efficiently. In the game, players control the day-to-day lives of virtual people called ' Sims'. The Sims (retroactively referred to as The Sims 1 or TS1 to differentiate it from the series as a whole) is a single-player interactive life simulation game, developed by Maxis and published by Electronic Arts.
