And with the many different pets you can choose from, you are sure to find the right pet to match your mood and style. As you meet different Sims characters, you will notice that they have different characteristics. It's up to you whether you would want to be a cat, dog, or even a fish. For one, the game gives you various options when it comes to choosing the type of animal you would like to be. If you are fond of animals, then this is the perfect game for you. This is a great feature for fans of the previous games but new players who don't yet have any of the previous versions will find this version of The Sims games interesting. The only difference here is that now you can play as the different pets. This game will be using the same basic formula as the other Sims games. While the first two games were on Nintendo DS, Wii and 3DS, now this game is solely available on 3DS. The Sims 3: Pets is actually an update to the game The Sims 3: City Generations.
