Original Dutch-language edition of The Sims 3, released by Electronic Arts in 2009.

One of the most successful life simulation games ever created, The Sims 3 introduced an open neighborhood, advanced character customization, personality traits and unprecedented freedom for players to create their own stories and virtual lives.

Unlike many earlier entries in the series, this release was developed for both Windows PC and Macintosh systems. The game became a landmark title in simulation gaming and remains highly popular among collectors and retro-gaming enthusiasts today.

Features:
• Original Dutch-language edition
• Mac & PC DVD-ROM
• Published by Electronic Arts
• Released in 2009
• Life simulation / sandbox gameplay
• Create and customize unique Sims
• Open-world neighborhood exploration
• Extensive building and decoration options

Language Information
Although this edition was originally sold in the Netherlands and includes the original Dutch-language manual, the game itself is not limited to Dutch.

The DVD contains a multilingual European release and allows installation in several European languages, including:

• English
• Dutch
• French
• German
• Spanish
• Italian

(and other languages depending on the operating system and installation options available).

This makes the game accessible to collectors and players throughout Europe while still retaining the appeal of an original Dutch retail edition complete with its original documentation.
