Like its predecessor, The Sims 4 lets you create and dress up characters called Sims, build homes and simulate their lives. The game features a new customization engine, better character and house tools, and improved Sims emotion and personality simulation.
Originally planned as an online multiplayer game, it was transformed into a single-player experience after Maxis’ SimCity launched to negative reviews in 2013. The Sims 4 has been criticized for its lack of features, with mixed reviews.
Despite this, it remained a commercial success, becoming the most popular game in the series, with over 70 million players worldwide as of 2023. The game continues to be supported by paid downloadable content packs and free updates that introduce new features. The latest expansion pack “The Sims 4: Rental” was released on December 7, 2023. Additionally, a new mainline The Sims game, codenamed “Project Rene,” is currently in development.

The Sims 4 Update 1.87 Patch Notes
Bug fixes
The Sims 4
- Sims should now indicate if something is preventing them from completing their meal.
- Reward traits earned through the Reward Shop will no longer allow multiple purchases.
- Some scene tooltips have been updated for clarity.
- The “stabbed a friend in the back” mood text has been updated for grammatical clarity.
- Important fix for mod creators: Mods would sometimes call TunableFactory at runtime after tuning the load. This results in a None object exception *n because what is expected is everything that happens during the initial tweak load, and dynamically creating the tweak at runtime is not expected to be a thing (outside of the tweak reload, in which case we Disable optimization completely, if allowed). This change is so that the *register_for_cleanup method does nothing after cleanup has occurred. If this happens after the adjustment is loaded, the created tunable factory and adjustment objects will naturally be garbage collected after they are no longer referenced and needed.
