If you've been eagerly awaiting the release of The Sims 5, there's an exciting alternative on the horizon that you might get a glimpse of soon. For those in Australia, you're in luck—you can already dive into the playtest phase of this new addition to the Sims universe. The game in question? The Sims Labs: Town Stories.
Don't get your hopes up for The Sims 5 just yet, though. The Sims Labs: Town Stories is a brand-new mobile simulation game and is part of the broader Sims Labs project that EA launched last August. This project serves as a 'learning lab' for experimenting with fresh gameplay ideas and features within the franchise.
You can find its listing on the Google Play Store, but it's not ready for download just yet. If you're interested in participating, you'll need to sign up through EA's official website. Keep in mind, access is currently exclusive to Australia.
What's Going On In The Sims Labs, The New Sims Game?
Since its announcement, The Sims Labs: Town Stories has sparked a flurry of reactions, predominantly critical. On platforms like Reddit, players have voiced their disappointment with the game's current graphics and underwhelming visuals. Some have speculated that EA might be developing yet another mobile game loaded with microtransactions.
The gameplay in Town Stories combines the classic Sims-style building with engaging, character-driven storytelling. You'll have the chance to construct your ideal neighborhood, assist residents with their personal journeys, pursue career goals for your Sims, and uncover the myriad secrets that Plumbrook holds.
From the footage and screenshots shared by YouTubers, it appears that the game doesn't stray far from its predecessors. As it's primarily a testing ground for EA, the focus seems to be on experimenting with new concepts that could potentially evolve as the development progresses.
So, what are your thoughts on this new game? Check out its listing on the Google Play Store, and if you're in Australia, why not give it a try? Stay tuned for more updates, and don't forget to read our next article on Shop Titans' Halloween Celebration with plenty of spooky rewards!
