ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Life simulation game

A life simulation game is a computer game that lets you experience what it's like to be another person, animal, or creature. You can be different characters in different scenarios, like playing as a doctor in a hospital or as a farmer on a farm. You make choices about what to do throughout the game and those choices affect the outcome of the game. It can be really fun to see how your decisions influence the game and the world around you.
