A fun little 'The Sims'-type game that is very addicting.

I have never been a huge fan of 'The Sims' and all of the countless expansion packs that have sucked money out of people's wallets for years. Sure it's a fun game and girls seem to love it, but I just never seemed to get into it. When I downloaded NY Nights to my cell, it was after hearing that it was pretty good. It sounded like a no-name version of 'The Sims', but I thought I would give it a shot. I am glad I did.

You start the game off by customizing your character's name, appearance (to a certain extent) and what gender you will be. Then you get to pick your main attributes to start the game with. There are four and they all go into how you are about to interact with people in the game. Then you are put into your New York apartment and you are sent on your way.

I really liked the look of the game. It has very bright and cartoon-style graphics that I just dug. The chracters are all kind cute and the animate relatively well. When you first start in your apartment there all several things you can do there. You can leave your apartment and go work out, go to a movie, go get a drink, dance, sing, read about the news, play videogames, see a play or concert, get your hair done, get a tan, etc. Everything you do in the game has some effect on your statistical attributes. It's a nice system and it's fun to see what each one does.

You also have to build up these attributes to talk to other people. Some people won't even talk to you if you haven't built up a certain attribute that they are intersted in. And they especially won't date you. Your goal in the game is to basically try to get a good job, meets lots of people, and meet a woman (or man, depending on your gender). It's just so much fun to do it.

I would highly recommend this game to anyone who likes 'The Sims' or even for people that aren't too into it, like myself. This game will get it's hooks in you and not let go till you have finally bagged that actress that has been so hard to get from that night club. Give it a try.
