Escapism in Minutiae of Daily Life
Escapism in Minutiae of Daily Life

There is something to be said for that; life can be taxing enough. The rub is that by being so self-consciously removed from everyday existence most games forfeit any chance to speak to the very real complexities of the human condition — precisely the area in which traditional media shine.

The Sims series is different. What makes it special is its exuberant, big-hearted, unabashedly joyful embrace of the minutiae of daily middle-class life.
The Sims provides a training and socialization playground. For adults The Sims offers an unflinching, potentially uncomfortable and perhaps almost psychoanalytic view into one’s desires and fears about that real world beyond the computer screen.
Most video games exist to allow the player to forget completely about the real world. The Sims accomplishes the rare feat of entertaining while also provoking intellectual and emotional engagement with some of life’s fundamental questions.
