Simulation Video Games

Simulation Video games
-Designed to mirror aspects of real life
-Many sub-genres
-Construction/management simulation games involve you building things
-Life simulation games have you creating a character and doing things that mirror real life tasks
-Others include:
  • Medical simulation: Players take the reigns as a surgeon, such as the Trauma Center series
  • The Sims: Very popular simulation game where you create a character or a "Sim" and do tihngs like increase skills, get a job, move places, buy cars and clothes, etc. I love these games. We have alot of the games. We have The Sims 2 Pets, The Sims 2, The Sims: Bustin' Out, The Sims: Castaway.
  • Vehicle simulation: These games give you an experience of driving a car, flying a plane and flying in space

Examples
-The Sims series

The Sims 2. Level: Cliffside Retreat
-Animal Crossing
-Desperate Housewives: The Game
-Grand Turismo series
-Mobil 1 Rally Championship
-Hospital Tycoon
-Trauma Center series. Had this when I was younger, only played it once; too hard to play!
