A new Sims game is in the works, and it's available now in Australia – though it's still in its testing phase. Called The Sims Labs: Town Stories, this mobile simulation game is part of EA's broader Sims Labs initiative, designed to experiment with new gameplay mechanics and features for future Sims titles.
While not the highly anticipated Sims 5, Town Stories offers a blend of classic Sims building and character-driven narratives. Players construct neighborhoods, guide residents through personal stories, manage careers, and uncover secrets within the game world of Plumbrook.
Initial reactions from gamers have been mixed, with some Reddit users expressing concern over the graphics and speculating about potential microtransactions. However, given its experimental nature, the game's visuals and gameplay may evolve significantly as development progresses.
Currently listed on the Google Play Store, The Sims Labs: Town Stories is exclusively available for download in Australia. Those outside Australia can register their interest through EA's website. Stay tuned for future updates and our next article covering Shop Titans' Halloween event!
