Simutrans was the third entry in the Simutrans software series. In Simutrans, a player can build their own home. They can decorate the house themselves, or they can buy furniture, wallpaper, and paint to go with the theme of the home. They can even add accessories like a coffee table, and a fireplace, all of which can be found in one of the many premade furnishings that they can purchase. Simutrans can be downloaded from anywhere they want, though there is a limit on how many Simutrans there can be in their account. The Simutrans software is offered in a variety of versions and includes: Simulation Deluxe, Simu, SimuWiz, SimuCool, and SimuFive. The Simu 5 version has more advanced features than the other versions and includes the ability to make money through SimuCool, SimuWiz, SimuValley, and SimuGarden.
A free game download comes with the Simutrans software. The Simutrans Free Download version includes new seasons and new homeowners to play as. Players have access to all of the premade furnishings, wallpaper, and themes as well. However, if players want to add new furniture to their house or get the newest wallpaper, they will have to pay a one time fee in order to download the Sims and use them. If they want to buy a premade theme, or an accessory, they will have to pay again.
The Simutrans Free Downloads allows players to try out the Simutrans software and see if it is for them. If they are not satisfied with the software, they will be able to download it again for a one time fee. The Simutrans free trial allows players to move around and test out the different objects in the Sims. Each time the download completes, players will be prompted to purchase Simu and enter the Simu password. After a player has played Simutrans for a few weeks they will be given a choice to upgrade to the Simuware and download the SimuCool or SimuWiz versions.
