"And yet, this is racier than The Sims, even considering Hot Date. See, The Partners (which is set in a law firm) requires naughty shenanigans – hence the pun in the title. Each Partner to remain happy requires a certain amount of career work and relaxation time, among others, but there are also meters for love, domination (that is, how much of a control freak the Partner is) and lust. Happiness is key, too, because it’s a large factor when arguing lawsuits which bring cash and prestige to the firm: The higher a Partner’s Happiness, the better chance of winning the case."

"The Partners presents with fine 3D graphics, much like those of The Sims series, both in its character depiction and animations. The interface is unobtrusive and efficient, allowing, unlike The Sims, rotation within your office areas and a very nice zooming feature using the mouse wheel, if available. Little pop-up menus allow the purchase of 100 pieces of furniture and 70 objects (such as a chocolate rabbit, bottle of beer, and game console), all designed to make the "work" of your lawyers more efficient and often their interactions more lively and saucy! Hundreds of independent and interactive actions can be performed."

"Behaving very much like an R-rated Sims expansion pack but independent of that series, The Partners is a silly and entertaining piece of gameplay fluff. There's no adventure here, none of the character building of RPGs, no real-time or turn-based strategies. Rather, much like the Ally McBeal series, The Partners aims to be a distraction from your more "serious" gaming and give you a few laughs. To that end, the game largely succeeds quite well. An effective tutorial gets you up and running, and from the included 21 missions in three campaigns to the enjoyable sandbox mode, The Partners is easy to get into and enjoy. I heartily recommend it..."
