When I was a teen.. I had a slow computer and The Sims. I was so excited about the game that it didn't matter even it took a lot of time to play the game since my computer wasn't good enough for the game. Still I sit in front of the computer during summer nights and realised at some point that it was morning already.. I had played through the night. Scary!

Now I am not playing that long time anymore but still it is nice to return to play Sims serie every now and then. Nowdays I play either Sims 2 or The Sims Medieval and now it felt good to go into medieval time. Even the game is rather different comparing to basic Sims. The Sims Medieval is a game where you do make your own kingdom and create characters in different professions to play it there. All of them have tasks to do but rather different ones. When you play a ruler your duty is to make new laws, listen your folk and make decisions what are best for your country. As a healer you will try to find new cures and medicines and heal people. Still tasks are rather simple ones and you can finish them rather fast. After that you can concentrate to gain some money and to decorate your buildings.

The new thing is that now you're doing quests (Alright, I think same idea was at least in the Sim game where you were showrecked into tropical island). You can choose quest what you want to do but after choosing one they're rather straightforward what to do. Still they have been rather interesting ones.. at least to a person who is tired after work and want to play hour or so relaxing a little. And there are always some extra things what you can do like go to adventuring. When you choose to do so, you will get some options what you will do and depending what you choose the game will tell what happened. What a lovely idea.

The Sims Mediaval feels familiar and yet there is slighty different things compared to the Sims, Sims 2 or Sims 3. It is nice to play more straightforward game and finish your duties when you can see your kingdom improving. Still the game is very light one and at least for now I haven't needed to worry about wars or nasty neighbours. So if Civilizations feels competitive games, perhaps making a kingdom in the Sims is your thing then.
