A new Sims game is in the works, and it's available now in Australia! While not the Sims 5 many are anticipating, "The Sims Labs: Town Stories" is a mobile simulation game currently in its playtest phase. This new title is part of EA's broader Sims Labs project, a testing ground for future Sims game features.
Though not yet globally available for download on Google Play, Australian players can sign up via EA's website to participate.
Initial Reactions to The Sims Labs: Town Stories
Early reactions from gamers have been mixed, with some expressing concern over the graphics and the potential for microtransactions. The gameplay, however, blends familiar Sims elements: building a neighborhood, guiding residents through personal stories, managing careers, and uncovering secrets within the town of Plumbrook.
Based on available footage and screenshots, the game's core mechanics appear similar to previous titles. Considering its role as a testing platform, EA's experiments may evolve significantly during development.
Interested players in Australia can find the game on the Google Play Store. Stay tuned for our upcoming coverage of Shop Titans' Halloween event!
