About Simulation

There are no strict goals, the player is allowed to perform freely; he can play for one or more characters, dabbling into occupations, building towers, making relationships, and doing sports.

Life simulators are known for the Sims series; sports simulators - for the NBA series; city-buildings for the SimCity series. The first simulations ever developed are BMX Simulator, Pro Boxing Simulator, and Grand Prix Simulator; each released in the 1980s.
