The Sims 3: Generations is the fourth big (not counting the smaller expansions called accessory) expansion to The Sims 3 game. It offers everything what fans of the game demanded for many years, for example extend of the various stages of Sims’ life from birth to death. Therefore, in this expansion each stage has been more or less expanded. Some of the improvements are: bunk beds, huge weddings, midlife crisis and many other elements.

In Generations we start the game in a classical way as an adult. At the beginning you will see some changes – for example a new career path, which you can get involved – so called a child care. However, if you want to try the game in 100%, it is essential to have a baby quickly – you can choose a classical way or an adoption. Soon after the birth you can see the first differences - our baby receives the doll which will accompany her/ him all the childhood. A child Sim plays tricks and play in one of three tree houses. The described doll has a significant meaning in the life of our Sim – it can be an imaginary friend. The next stage is teenage years. It gives us completely new possibilities like: blowing the toilets up using a new set of chemist, prom parties and crazy house parties.
