I'm very new to the Sims game, is this the first one I have ever bought or played. So far it's great fun and I've even figured out how to adopt my first pet!
Edit: I was able to get the Limited Edition Pet Store to show up within my Sims 3 plus Pets game. I must admit it took a couple times downloading it, installing it, then uninstalling it, deleting the download and trying the process over again. When the Pet Shop finally showed up in the Options Menu > Edit Town I was able to add the Pet Store to a Lot near my Sim's home.
If you are happy ONLY playing the base game WITH NO expansion packs. Can do. Me? I'll never buy an EA game. Returning the packs.
This is NOT A Win 11 or a Mac issue! It is 100% EA. If you search online if Sims 3 will play on Win 11, answer yes. I checked. Reality is ONLY the base Sims 3 will play <sigh> Don't be scammed. Avoid EA games.
Update: After several failed attempts to get the issue resolved with EA customer support, I had almost given up and written this purchase off as a loss. I decided however, to try them just once more and was very pleasantly surprised at the results. On my final attempt to contact EA games, I was almost instantly connected to a customer service rep who helped me resolve the issue within minutes over the phone, and was even given a code for a discount towards my next EA purchase. Although I was very frustrated at first, EA did a good job in the end and has restored my faith in the company. The game itself is running fine on my computer and I haven't experienced any bugs or problems with it. In fact, I recently purchased the "Ambitions" expansion and had no issues with the installation of that game either.

Dislike- code didn’t work, had to use one off the internet. (Sealed also) so sketchy.
Also game crashes a lot. Save frequently.
Didn’t work with my 2017 Mac.
Otherwise works with an older model.
