I&#8217;ve stipulated that you just need the base game for this, but a lot depends on which packs you have installed. If you have the &#8216;Get To Work&#8217; expansion, for example, you will be able to build hospitals and such. The &#8216;Cats &amp; Dogs&#8217; expansion will allow you to build a veterinary surgery, and so on. However, for this tutorial, I&#8217;ll be showing you how to build a little park. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>First of all, open up your game and select an empty lot. The top-left of the game has a small house icon, this is where you can select the kind of lot you want to build:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1222\" data-lbwps-height=\"1084\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1.jpg\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-96580 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1-338x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"338\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1-338x300.jpg 338w, https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1-600x532.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1-768x681.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1-150x133.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/1.jpg 1222w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 338px) 100vw, 338px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve made your selection, a list of requirements for that lot will show:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1218\" data-lbwps-height=\"982\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-96581\" src=\"https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2-372x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"372\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2-372x300.jpg 372w, https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2-600x484.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2-768x619.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2-150x121.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.simfansuk.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2.jpg 1218w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 372px) 100vw, 372px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the drop-down list that shows under &#8216;Requirements&#8217;, you can just click on any item and it will show in the catalogue.
