I am truly impressed that EA Mobile did not treat Sims 3 for the iPhone as an inferior product to the flagship game, which is something you often see in DS or mobile editions of existing franchises. This was not shoved out to make a quick buck in the shadow of the PC game. The amount of content and detail betrays a real dedication to making a complete Sims experience for a new screen. Despite occasional bugaboos and odd interface decisions, Sims 3 is a quality game that comes seriously recommended.

Overall, IGN gave the iPhone version a score of 8.5.  That’s pretty good for an iPhone game!
