Little Computer People, released in 1985 for the Commodore 64, is a life simulation game considered a precursor to the popular 'The Sims' series. Players interact with an autonomous, computer-controlled man who lives in a three-story house. Communication with the little person is achieved through typing commands, and the game's purpose is to learn the character's behaviors, needs, and to foster a virtual friendship. It's a unique blend of simulation and pet care in a time when the concept of 'virtual life' was just beginning to be explored in the realm of video games.
