1 is fantastic if you like really hard games that portray life as working class under the boot of capitalism. The game is so hard to micromanage your family and get shit done while being constantly exhausted from work. Makes it so that when you finally have money coming in and can throw that giant house party (that ends up being a disaster) all the more sweeter.
You can be a fuckin magician or superstar in the Sims 1. Yeah the needs in that game was a huge pita but it was still the goat. The soundtrack and art style of that game unparalleled by any other Sims. The whole game just had this vibe... And then the occasional weirdness and creepiness punctuated it all perfectly.
You could make a best to worst Sims list in order of release.
Big agree on sims 1 having that vibe. I love the old school look of the pre-rendered assets and the early 3D polygon characters too. I feel like even though 1 had gimmicky supernatural elements like magic, it at least played it well enough to be believable. The sequels kind of went overboard with aping off Harry Potter. I still love the creepy music that would play when the raccoon would show up to raid your garbage can or the burglar.

it also portrays a meritocracy, which is not something that truly exists
You know you're playing a work of fiction when your hard work and dedication on the job pan out and you get a raise.
