EA announced the brand new product line Sims Carnival. The first two games in the Sims Carnival line are The Sims Carnival SnapCity and The Sims Carnival Bumper Blast. Both games are available now as digital downloads from Pogo.com.
The Sims SnapCity allows players to build cities using falling blocks. Players have to guide the blocks into a magnificent city. Players can build industrial, residential or commercial places. There are two modes of play: a pick up and play mode, which sounds similar to a quick-play mode or players can play in a more difficult setting, which sounds like a career mode of some sort.
The Sims Carnival Bumper Blast is an arcade-style shooter game. The goal of the game is to shoot all of the Sims-styled bumpers before the bullets run out. Players have to master skill shots to gain the highest score possible. Packed with 140 different levels, The Sims Carnival Bumper Blast will keep players entertained for hours.
“We designed these pick-up-and-play games to be fun and entertaining, while still presenting depth in gameplay, long-term enjoyment and great value,” said Rod Humble, Head of The Sims Studio. “Since The Sims Carnival SnapCity and The Sims Carnival Bumper Blast are available for digital download, the holiday shopper can avoid long lines and still share some fun with everyone on their list.”
