Create the perfect pet for your Sims to train, play with, and love.

Choose from dozens of the most popular dog and cat breeds like Dalmatians and Persians.

Or create a unique cat or dog by customizing their features and body type.

Then pick a personality—you decide if your Sims’ Siamese is cowardly, [gif]ted, or lazy.

Your Sims can teach their pets tricks, take them for a romp in the park to meet other furry friends, and much more as they share a lifetime together.

But remember, your Sims’ pets have minds of their own—cats claw sofas, dogs roll in flowerbeds, and worse.

Expect the unexpected!

Set your Sims up in their own businesses.

Build trendy boutiques, bustling bakeries, hip salons, thriving cafes and countless other businesses.

Hire a staff to stock the shop and sell goods to a variety of customers.

Will they build the favorite neighborhood shop or the next entrepreneurial empire? The Sims™ 2 Open For Business is loaded with over 125 new objects to help your Sims get down to business.

Your Sims are moving into a brand-new apartment, and their lives will never be the same! Adventure, fun, and drama await them as they meet new people and explore their new neighborhood.

Will they take their kids to the local playground, mingle in coffee shops, or hit the park to learn from the breakdancers? Close quarters mean new opportunities—move in with compatible roomies for a thriving social life, advance your career with the right social network, or find true love just down the hall.

Whether they live in artsy converted lofts, the ultimate studio bachelor pads, or luxury apartments with their own butler, your Sims will experience all of the excitement of apartment life!

Experiencing all four seasons for the first time - from seasonal activities to all-new outerwear for unpredictable weather - is guaranteed to provide a whole new level of excitement for your Sims! Not only will your Sims experience the seasons changing in spring, summer, autumn and winter, but each season will deliver unique benefits, impacting your Sims relationships, mood, skills, careers and more.

And be sure to dress your Sims appropriately for the weather - freezing, sunburn and other unexpected weather effects can occur.

The Sims 2 Seasons really delivers what the players have been asking for - a unique gaming experience offering new seasonal, outdoor activities that players can engage in.

And because each season unfolds differently, spring, summer autumn and winter will look different than the year before, guaranteeing a fresh experience each season, said Vice President and Studio Head of The Sims Division, Rod Humble.

From fishing with Dad on a cool lake to catching fireflies on a warm summer night - these are the great moments in life we remember either from growing up with our parents or growing up with our kids.

The wonderful gardening system adds another layer of player creativity and nurturing which is the perfect compliment to the base game.
