What do your Sims do while they’re at work all day? Previously, you could only choose a career and make a few basic decisions to nudge their jobs in certain directions, but now with the Sims 3 expansion pack Ambitions, you can follow your Sims as they fight fires, hunt ghosts, investigate mysteries, and more.

The Sims 3: Ambitions

And like everything else they do away from home, their interactions with other Sims while working will affect their domestic relationships. A doctor who intervenes while a rich neighbor’s child is choking may find herself with not just new friends but a healthy Simoleon bonus too, while an architectural designer who doesn’t listen to his clients’ requests may find himself on the outs with them.

Career Tracks

Let’s head over to the employment office and learn more about the seven exciting careers waiting for your Sims:

Happy Job Hunting

So what will it be? Tangling with the supernatural as a ghost hunter? Fearlessly dashing into a burning building to save trapped Sims? Sneaking through the shadows to build a case against a wrongdoer? Charting your own course as one of the entrepreneurial self-employed?

Install Ambitions and discover the colors of your Sims’ parachutes.
