In The Sims 2, you can control your Sims over a lifetime for the first time. With the addition of genetics, the game allows your Sims to pass their DNA from generation to generation.
Every life choice you make has a relevant and dramatic effect on your Sim's lifespan.
Now it's up to you to take your Sims from the cradle to the grave, while fulfilling their dreams and pushing them to the limit.
