The Sims 3 is a life-simulation computer game, a sequel to the best-selling Sims 2. It is developed by the Sims studio and runs on Mac and Windows computers. However, recently new versions have been developed for mobile phones too.

Sims 3 has the same concepts as the previous games, where players design their own Sims as well as create activities and develop relationships which are similar to real life. There are even Sim houses and neighborhoods, where the computer characters can live and where players can act out many real-life situations both in, and outside of their Sim homes.

Players can develop skill-dependent abilities if they perform well in social interactions throughout the game. Other skills include guitar playing, appliance upgrades, painting, writing, and various other creative skills. Each Sim can increase their skill through practice, teaching themselves about the skill by reading a book, and even taking a class. These skills can be learned as early as the toddler days.

Sims characters can also earn rewards through a new feature called 'Opportunities'. This feature involves challenges that are randomly presented to each player depending on various aspects of their lifestyle such as their job, skills, or relationships. Certain opportunities may arise in the career aspect such as staying overtime, which can result in a pay rise and even a cash bonus.

The Sims 3 game is available as a standard edition and as a collectors' edition. The standard edition includes the core game's first release, while the collector's edition features the Sims 3 core game, a 2GB flash drive with a Green Carabiner: A European sports car game download, plus stickers, and a hints and tips guide.

The Sims 3 game is one of the most realistic and enjoyable life-simulation games released to date.

If you lose your code, seriously, go onto live chat with EA.  They'll ask you for the email that you registered your game with, and then they'll give you a new one.  They just want to verify that you did indeed buy the game. It takes 5-10 minutes, and it won't mess up your computer.

It can be retrieved from EA itself by buying the game online, and then getting a new email sent out with a FRESH new code for the game.

P.S. It's a very good game

Most of the codes here are infected. Never copy codes, just email EA and they'll send you a code.

Never copy codes. They can cause viruses and even break your computer.

If you are lucky enough to have Sims 3 installed on a second computer, you can open the registry editor and find your code in there.

Editing the registry can have dangerous side effects on your computer, if you have never used the registry editor before, proceed at your own risk.

Open Registry Editor
(Start -> Run -> type: Regedit)

Your key is located in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE  SOFTWARE  Electronic Arts  Sims  The Sims 3  ergc"

The (default) value is the key you used to install Sims 3

Hope that helps! It helped us find the key after we lost the book and wanted to install on a different computer. Good Luck!

P.S. Write that code down somewhere! Write on the disk if you have to!

Just to let you know, the disk and the box have one code which pairs them together (make sure no body tries switching the disks in boxes). I think it should have the code on your disk in case you end up losing the box and then not being able to play.

You can't get someone else's code, it won't work for your copy - everyone has a unique code. If everyone had the same code then there would be no point in using codes in the first place.

I lost my code as well and I tried all of these codes and none of them worked, so if you really need a new code buy a new copy, or just deal with it.

No, you can't just take someone else's code. It doesn't let you do that if the code has already been used. If you need a code, go buy the game people!
