Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2.14/day in the week to Sep 15 → 5.43/day in the week after.

Reviews
I'm so glad I bought it! My mom has been playing the sims for over 20 years, and of course I learned to play it too; since I was little I've played the sims 3 and 4, so I could say I've spent a big part of my life playing it, however, I always wanted to try the sims 2 since I've seen a lot of gameplays and a big part of simmers saying this is the best release of the sims, which I wanted to test. Yeah, the sims 2 is definitely the best release. From the cinematics to the level of detail it is put in every single thing, when your sims break the fourth wall to ask for help with their needs or to react positively or negatively to the actions you have them perform, the way every neiborhood has it's own story and including npc's have lore; it's more than a life sim and it's clear that a lot of heart went into making this game. You could have all the dlc's for the sims 4, add mods and costumed content and the sims 2 will still have more soul without even trying.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 5: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 3.71/day in the week to Jul 30 → 4.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Peak gaming tbh. Accidently killed my family with a microwave that blew up. Tried again, This time they burned to death with the fire from the oven. 10/10 would commit manslaughter again!

Love love love the Sims 2! Been playing since I was a kid, feels way more alive and interesting than Sims 4 :) highly rec
I have loved Sims 2 since the 00s
Just as great a game as I remember!
To me, this game plays just like it did when I was a kid in the early 2000's. Yes there are glitches, but it is far from unplayable. For me, the experience has been great and I will continue putting in the hours.
A mani basse The Sims 2 è il miglior gioco della serie
