Story of Homelessness in "Sims 3"

Tuesday June 16, 2009
Alice and Kev are sims. They live in an abandon lot. There are no cozy sofas or beds for the father and daughter family. Only way they will survive is by hanging out the neighbors, stealing apples, and getting food at work and school. Robin Burkinshaw, the creator of Alice and Kev, made it more interesting by giving the sims negative personality traits. She tells use about their daily life through a blog dedicated to the pair.

Robin is a fantastic writer. Alice and Kev's story is written with limited embellishment. We see that nice Sims (Alice) tend to get away with a lot more then the miserable ones (Kev).

My next family may be my own version of Alice and Kev. Anyone else going to try a pair of homeless Sims? Or any families not following the tradition route of trying to have the perfect life?
