		asciimo on Aug 13, 2017 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Motive.c: The Soul of the Sims (1997) I had a revelation while playing the Sims, and this code lays it bare.

Realizing that Sims games are really meta-games about life is how you actually win any Sims game. The only winning move is not to play.
