ABOUT THE PROJECT

The real game. Right in your browser.

We’re bringing the original 2000 The Sims back - not as a remake, but as the actual game, running in a browser tab. Same engine, same textures, same kitchen fires.

01.EXE

Original, not a remake

The untouched Maxis game from 2000. No new models, no reworked mechanics.

02.EXE

Nothing to install

Open a tab, and an emulated Windows 98 starts the game. On a computer, a tablet or a phone.

03.EXE

Your saves, kept

Families, houses and progress are saved, so you can pick up where you left off.

04.EXE

Complete Collection

The base game plus all seven expansion packs, from Livin’ Large to Makin’ Magic.

INCLUDED
HOVER A TITLE ▾
ON YOUR PHONE TOO

The Sims in your pocket.

The same original game on your phone or tablet, with touch controls built for it. Turn your phone sideways and play.

In The Sims 1 there were only landline phones - not even a cell phone. And now you can play it on your smartphone.

  • Tapclick
  • Hold & dragdrag
  • Two fingersmove the view
  • ☰menu: save, keyboard, cheats, full screen

Beta: works best on a tablet or a powerful phone.

COUCH MODE

Your TV is the screen. Your phone is the controller.

Start the game on a big screen - a TV, the browser on a PS5 or PS4, a laptop hooked up to the TV, anywhere with a web browser. Scan the QR code with your smartphone and it turns into a controller: touchpad, buttons and menu right in your hand.
