If you can cast your mind back far enough you'll be able to remember the amount of hours that were wasted playing on The Sims.
You'd fire up what was probably a huge computer that took up half a room, which ran on Windows '98 and had dial up, deciding to start a family on the real life simulator for a few hours of procrastination.
It'd all start out fine - trying to get your character as similar to you as possible - before creating a partner so you could make a baby. It's not until you miss a few days at work, the oven sets on fire and your wife hasn't eaten for five days that you throw caution to the wind and enter the 'Motherlode' cheat and buy all the flash stuff on the game.
It's a memory most of us can relate too, and something that got somewhat of a reboot when it made it's way onto the PlayStation 2 in the form of The Sims Bustin' Out and so on.
The original game came out on February 4, 2000, and 17 years down the road it's still as timeless as ever, along with its many sequels.
However, these days it's not as popular as it once was, but that could be changing as a reboot is coming to the mobile version, which it'll make it sick.
The Sims FreePlay is an app which already exists but unlike the PC game, you are extremely limited in what you can do.
Unless you're constantly willing to fork out for in-app purchases, it's no fun.
EA is giving you the opportunity to experience the original game in the palm of your hand, "shaping your Sims' families over multiple generations".
"When your Sims accomplish their career goals and retire, you'll be rewarded with Heirlooms that unlock hobbies and careers for future generations, allowing new Sims to tell deeper stories," EA says.

Just like the version we played until our eyes turned into squares and we couldn't physically look at a screen any longer, this is about to replace every other mobile game you've been sucked into playing.
You will have the power to create unique Sims, build a home, and play together, 'interacting with other Sims to socialise, show off your amazing house, earn rewards, and develop new relationships'.
According to reports, the game has already launched in Brazil, and the rest of the world will follow soon.
