Since I didn't see this offered for download anywhere that it was easily accessible, I decided to upload the Sims 3 Manuals so that you can download them. Since I bought my game through IGN Direct2Drive, I have no hard copy manual, and must use the digital version. Even people with a hard copy might like a searchable digital version, so I'm providing these PDFs.
The Sims 3 Manuals are not particularly great, unfortunately. They leave a lot of information barely mentioned, likely so that you can make discoveries yourself. Still, it's a good manual when it comes to explaining the interface, which is exactly what people need to get out there and play the game. The Build, Buy and Living modes are all covered quite well enough for newbies to start Simming right away. Players will also find an ultra-useful list of hotkeys for the game.
For my dialup friends out there, I've uploaded the English Sims 3 manual pdf as a standalone download. The rest of the manual translations can be found in the zip file and cover the following languages: Polish, Danish, Dutch, Español, Finnish, French, Italian, Norwegian, Português, Swedish, Russian and German.
The Sims 3 game manual is copyright © Electronic Arts. I am providing this download as a service to the Sims 3 community, as legitimate owners may like an electronic back up version. I do not condone software piracy in any shape or form. Should they request its removal I will do so immediately. I can be reached at carl@carlsguides.com
