What players say
Started from a Crack house and eventually worked my way up to a Crack home. Had some fun with some of the mechanics as well, like discovering you can raise comfort by just spamming down furniture like beds and stoves, may not look the best but it got the job done lol. Overall enjoyed my experience with this one took about 12h to 100% as well so not a super long game but with the price of these bundles right now is...

loved being a evil landlord, at first i thought i was rigging the system by putting really expensive furniture to up the rent for my little people then realized there was a whole furniture/job mechanic and it was the reason why they couldn't afford to live in their apartments. then i turned into a kind landlord and made sure they lived their best lives 10/10 super fun game to relax to, best played with a controller
i would love to recomend this game... i remember playing it when i was younger and i loved it! that said, it doesn't work well on the phone anymore, and this port to the computer feels really rushed and unoptimized. if you have a controller it is fine, i don't. that said, when it's on sale i think the downgrades in optimation are worth it, if it isn't don't bother
