Explore your own imagination with SimCity as you create your own city and make the choices that shape it and the Sims who live in it.

Every decision, big or small, has real consequences. Invest in heavy industry and your economy will soar but pollution rapidly becomes a problem. Implement green technology and improve your Sims's lives while risking higher taxes and unemployment.

Heading off to university is a big moment to anyone's life – now the Sims are ready to embrace those opportunities, from social connections to career growth.

From class activities to major-specific objects, your Sim will find new ways to learn. Not that university is just about hitting the books. Join a protest, flirt at a party – there's a lot to explore outside the lecture hall and library.

With new locations like the bowling alley and SimBurger to visit, and new activities like juice pong and spray painting murals to enjoy, this Sims 3 University Life expansion pack deserves top marks.

Learning is more fun than ever with challenges such as broadcasting your own radio show as a Communications student. Your Sims can also learn through class activities, lectures at the student union and joining in social activities.

Get ready to party! From hosting bonfires by the lake to doing juice keg stands at a dorm party, there's plenty of fun to be had at university too. You can also grow your social networking skills through texting, blogging, and streaming video.

Just like in real life, your Sims' decisions are deeply interconnected. For example, a Fine Arts student benefits from the Avant Garde trait, develops their Street Art skill and cred with the Rebels by tagging and spray painting. Just don't get caught by the cops!
