The Sims are back and this time they are now playable on your Apple device. The Sims FreePlay provides you, the omnipotent overlord, full control on a number of Sim characters, much like the desktop editions. You can control your Sims to do every possible task at hand, including falling in love and commanding them to go to the bathroom. You can control up to 16 different Sims with over 1,200 customization options to decorate their homes, as well as a selection of pets.

The best part about The Sims FreePlay is that it is free to download on iTunes, but it requires some in-game purchases to advance. It can be played on the iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch. Sorry, no naked cheat code.
