Life Simulation Game

A life simulation game may focus on the biological or social aspects of life:

Biological simulations may allow the player to expermient with Genetics , Survival or Ecosystem s, often in the form of an Educational Package ; '' SimLife '' and '' Spore '' for example. Evolution Games are a sub-genre of this type of game.

Social simulations base their gameplay on the Social Interaction between game entities; such as '' The Sims '' or any Dating Sim .

A third type of life simulation are Virtual Pet s; popular examples being '' Tamagotchi '', the '' Petz '' series (consisting of the ''Catz'' and ''Dogz'' series) and '' Nintendogs '', simulations also known as Digital Pet s. These titles are generally more limited than "full" life simulators and interaction with the digital pets are commonly restricted to petting and playing.
