How to Play The Sims: Bustin' Out
Quick start
Choose New Game and create a Sim; the truck drops you at Uncle Hayseed’s farm in SimValley. Talk to Uncle Hayseed and raise the relationship score to 30, then choose “I’ve got something for you” and give him the Family Photo Album. For the next goals, take food from the refrigerator, sleep in the bed and use the shower so the matching motives are no longer low.
Controls
D-pad moves the Sim and cursor; hold B with the D-pad to run. A accepts, talks and uses the selected object; B cancels. START opens the menu for goals, personality and items; L/R change its pages and rotate furniture while placing it. SELECT opens the pause menu. In the world, L shows or hides the motive display.
