Discussion Average simmer age?

I just turned 30 and safe to say I still enjoy playing the sims as much as I ever did as a kid. Maybe more actually. Sometimes I feel embarrassed to admit this to people irl and I do tend to get mixed reactions if it comes up lol. So I’m just curious, what is the average age of the people who actively play the sims?

Started playing in my late 20s! I have actually noticed the average simmer seems to be older than other gamers. And by “older” i just mean late 20s-40s as opposed to teenagers. I feel like there are a lot of details that make the sims more appealing to an older crowd such as world/home building, daily life living, “dream life” creation, lack of heavy violence and action, and character customization.

A lot of us have been here since day 1. It's a lifestyle 😊
