Welcome to Computer Sims International for the Sims 1 or CSI for the Sims 1 as we call it around here. I have been playing this game since it came out in 2000 and have all the expansion packs. My favorite expansion pack was Unleashed that added the ability to have pets such as dogs and cats in the game and for your sims to be able to grow their own food and more options for them to work at home.

This expansion pack also increased the size of your residential lots so you could have more sims in your neighborhoods. In the community area you can eat at a cafe, shop, visit the market, take on some recreation, buy a new animal.
