Going outside it hard at the moment. A ton of workplaces have shut down, people are self isolating and social distancing, and overall we’re just looking for things to do while on our own. If you’re missing going outside, hitting the gym, and just generally living a regular life, may i suggest grabbing a $5USD copy of The Sims 4?
It’s part of the annual Spring sale that the EA puts on, but this year it’s come around a little early seeing as, you know, we’re in the middle of a worldwide pandemic. People are stuck inside with nothing better to do than play The Sims 4 all day, so it’s as good a time as any to drop the price.
You can pick it up on Amazon or on EA’s digital storefront, Origin, so whatever works for you.
If you’ve played The Sims before, you’ll know that it’s perfect for times like these. You can live out all sorts of wild fantasies like going outside, talking to strangers, and giving people hugs. It’s also one of those games that sucks your entire day / week / month away and then you don’t touch it again for ages. If you’re looking for something to do so you can fast forward through time and kill a few days, The Sims is exactly where it’s at.
As of right now, $5 in the US is about $7.50 Australian. The game usually goes for around $40 USD, or $60 Australian, so you can make that one more thing that you’re saving money on while staying at home.
There’s no time like the present to throw yourself into the world of Sims. Just don’t delete too many ladders.
