List of Sim games
Encyclopedia : L : LI : LIS : List of Sim games
This is a list of all "Sim" games, and expansion packs. Most games were developed by the Sim-giant, Maxis, and published either by Maxis (pre-1997 acquisition by Electronic Arts) or by Electronic Arts (post-1997). Though neither Maxis nor Electronic Arts own the trademark on the Sim prefix, most Maxis-developed games have used it in their titles, although some non-Maxis companies such as Bullfrog Productions and Firaxis also use the prefix.

Notes
- ↑ SimCity 3000 Unlimited was sold as SimCity 3000 World Edition outside the United States
- ↑ Sim Theme Park was sold as Theme Park World outside the U.S.
- ↑ SimCoaster was sold as Theme Park Inc outside the U.S. Even though both games were published by Electronic Arts, neither of them were developed by Maxis. Instead, they were both developed by Bullfrog Productions.
- ↑ SimGolf is often confused with Sid Meier's SimGolf
- ↑ El-Fish is a fish and fish-tank simulator developed by Russian game developer AnimaTek, with Maxis providing development advice.
- ↑ Sid Meier's SimGolf is developed by Sid Meier and Firaxis, not Will Wright and Maxis
- ↑ SimCity 64 is developed by HAL Laboratory, Inc. and published by Nintendo, although it was based on Maxis's titles
- ↑ Yoot Tower was made as a sequel to SimTower but was neither developed by nor published by Maxis.
- ↑ Simsville was promoted as a combination of The Sims and the SimCity series, but was cancelled on September 2001. Some of the aspects of the project were instead implemented in The Sims Online, SimCity 4, and various The Sims expansion packs such as .
- ↑ A Mars colonization and terraformation game was in the works but the project was cancelled, probably because of the success of The Sims. SimMars would have apparently combined play styles from SimEarth, SimLife, and SimCity.
