Life simulation video games have been around since the 1980s. The first publicly-available life simulation game, known as Little Computer People, released in 1985 for the Commodore 64 computer. Players control characters within the game by inputting commands, and Little Computer People is cited as having shaped the mold for the many virtual life simulation games to follow. From digital pets to detailed political simulations to cozy social simulations, these games let a player immerse themselves in an imaginary world.
