It's the party of the year for the game of the year and you're the host. You decide if it's time for your Sims to hoedown at a country barn dance, chow down at a tropical luau, or go underground at a rave. Will your party be a smash or a snore? House Party is your invitation to rock your Sims' house!

[edit] Trivia

  • Players who throw particularly large parties may be surprised to find Drew Carey arrive in his limousine.
  • When a Sim with six or more Charisma points tells a story around the bonfire during a party, a headless ghost may appear to frighten the listeners.
  • If a party flops badly enough, a mime may appear to lighten the mood. While he can help to cheer the crowd up, he's also been known to steal items from the house.
  • If the player hires a caterer for a party, the caterer can sometimes be found admiring the clothing in the new Costume Trunk (if one is present in the house).
