The Sims 3: Into The Future is another versatile expansion for the franchise that manages a good balance of expanding the shopping catalog for people only interested in home improvement, while also offering a whole new area to explore for people looking for a little more excitement. Personally I am waiting for The Sims 3: Into The Future’s Future, in which your Sim is subjugated by their Plumbot overlords – but I may now have to wait for a Sims 4 expansion for that. Being robots, you have the power to alter their appearance and personality to suit your needs, but once complete they act as any other Sim – right down to their ability to reproduce. If your future family don’t love you, don’t worry too much, as Into The Future also features Plumbots, customizable characters who act like Sims. While there are no game-ending paradoxes created by visiting your future family, you may not like their opinion of you - a sobering thought, so try and be good in the present if you want to be forever loved. Your Sim’s achievements in the past will also be remembered by their future descendents. Having all that money will cause events to play out differently of course, and you may find that your actions have turned the future into a grimy dystopia or a pristine-white utopia.
So, check those lottery numbers and nip back through time to earn some cash. When you first arrive in the future it is neutral, however traveling back through the portal allows you to affect how world events are to play out. The most interesting addition to The Sims 3 formula is the ability to influence the future and to see how your Sim’s progeny will turned out. Once you have acquired these items in the future you can bring them back to the present to decorate your lovingly created home. Most handy among these are the new beds that can be programmed to influence your Sim’s dreams, letting them level up life skills while they sleep (handy). Level 6: Sims can now help to train others in the ways of the fitness guru. Sims now also move faster when directed around town. Level 5: 'Push Self' is at Level 5, increasing the speed of workout but creating the Sore moodlet, if you select it. While these visual changes maybe be appreciated by long time Sims 3 players, even more welcome are the items that have been given new abilities. Once at Level 3 Sims can get a bonus after exercise in the form of the 'Pumped' moodlet. Many changes are purely cosmetic, such as the new hover cars whose only innovation is the removal of wheels, and a sweet 60s bubble car look. As with all of The Sims 3 expansions, Into The Future provides plenty of new furniture, clothing, and customization options for your Sim. I mean, how in the world am I supposed to keep my things private when.
