The Sims 3 is an amazing game where you can design your characters' looks, personality, "Lifetime Wish," get them jobs, let them have children, etc.
All I ever do, though, is make a one-person-family, use a cheat to get lots of money, build a pretty house, and get their skills up really high so I can feel superior to all the other sims who live in tiny houses and are "Automated Spell Checker Checker," or something way less cool than "Renaissance Sculptor" like my sim is. And they don't even have 500,000 simoleons like my sim does. Or a super fast car like my sim does. And all the other sims gossip about my sim saying things like "Did you know so-and-so is filthy rich? I never would have guessed!" (they actually say that).
Occasionally my sim will have a husband, but I usually kill him by trapping him in a room with nothing at all, so he starves to death and that way I don't have to take care of him and make sure he's happy. One of the Lifetime Wishes is to actually see the ghost of their spouse, so sometimes it pays off (This lifetime wish is called something like "Gold digger").
More often, though, my sim will have a baby. I'll use the magical birthday cake to age it up from an infant to a toddler. Then I'll hurry up and teach it the only things toddlers need to know, apparently, which is to walk, talk, and use a potty. I'll then use the magical birthday cake again to age it to a child, and ship it off to boarding school until it's a young adult. If by that time, my main sim's almost dead, or I'm bored with her, I'll start playing her offspring, maybe killing my main sim, maybe not.
Basically I just do the same thing over and over, because this game offers instant gratification, which is "lol she made a pretty sculpture!" or "look at this pretty house I made!!" and that's all I need to keep myself entertained for eighteen hours a day.
