About The Sims Life Stories

The Sims Life Stories is the first game in The Sims Stories series. The pack bears similarities to the console ports of The Sims games. In Story mode, it begins with the problems of Riley Harlow and Vincent Moore. Rewards are unlocked as set goals are achieved. In the open-ended Classic mode, the player creates Sims and then chooses how they will live their life, akin to typical The Sims gameplay. Life Stories was released for Microsoft Windows in February 2007, and Mac OS X by Aspyr Media later in 2007.

The game begins in Story Mode with Riley's life story as she moves from SimCity to Four Corners to start a new life with her Aunt Sharon. A second story follows the life of Vincent, a millionaire who is searching for true love. After both stories are completed the gameplay continues in the open-ended Classic mode, which is similar to The Sims 2. The towns in which Riley and Vincent live are also available to play when their stories are finished.

Life Stories uses the same engine and gameplay mechanics as The Sims 2. In addition to the open-ended freeplay mode from The Sims 2, Life Stories features two pre-defined scenarios. In each scenario the player takes control of one of two protagonists and is tasked with accomplishing various goals in that character's life. The game features significant use of scripted sequences to create pre-defined dramatic events and situations. There are three neighborhoods to play – one for each of the two stories, as well as a freeplay neighborhood. Several objects from various The Sims 2 packs are made available in Life Stories, such as the bowling alley from The Sims 2: Nightlife and pool table from The Sims 2: University.

    if you are having trouble running the game and it says to insert the disc, you are trying to play it the wrong way. go to your file that you extracted and go to file “crack” and run it on there

    Thank you. I was able to get SL and SP to work. I already had SC. I did have to clear my cache in order to get the 2nd one to accept the serial code. The instructions were somewhat confusing: Easier to understand:
    (Open the “Crack” folder in the “Game Files” folder. Copy or drag and drop the “SimsLS.exe” file from the Crack folder to the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims Life Stories\TSBin. When prompted, choose to “Replace existing file” or you could “copy and replace”).

    I followed all the steps and it downloaded totally fine, but it keeps crashing once I get to the main menu? It says “The application has crashed. The application will now terminate.”
