Is there a game where you can live in London?

London life simulator

Yes. LifeSim puts you in the real London, on a 3D map of the real streets. You describe a character, and the game starts your life in the city. The people you meet have jobs, homes, and routines, and they remember what you say. It is free and runs in the browser.
