The Sims 2: Aberto para Negócios é o terceiro pacote de expansão para The Sims 2, onde você poderá criar sua própria boutique de roupas, salão de beleza, florista, loja de eletrônicos de alta qualidade, movimentada cadeia de restaurantes ou praticamente qualquer outro tipo de negócio. Contrate sua equipe à medida que a empresa cresce e coloque Sims talentosos para trabalhar fazendo brinquedos, administrando o registro, criando buquês florais, dando arremessos de vendas ou fabricando robôs. Mas cuidado com os funcionários preguiçosos e esteja preparado para demiti-los no local. Will you build a thriving business empire or become an eccentric entrepreneur designing the next big thing?

Sims can open their own shops and restaurants, and lead their business to great success (or dismal failure! ) through careful management and competent customer service. As the boss of their new businesses, players' Sims are responsible for hiring and firing. Some employees are dedicated to their duties while others just put in time for a paycheck, so grooming an efficient staff can be a rewarding challenge. Like earlier Sims expansion packs, Open for Business adds over 100 new objects to the game, many of which can be used at home as well as at work. Cash registers and service counters, awnings and elevators, and a wide selection of costumes and uniforms become available with the add-on. New areas are offered for builders, where they can custom-create the retail shop of their Sims' dreams.
