The Sims 4
The Sims 4 is a social simulation game that was created by Maxis and published by Electronic Arts. It is the fourth major installment in The Sims series and follows the release of The Sims 3 in 2009. The game first became available in North America on September 2, 2014, for Windows.
An OS X version was then released in February 2015, and later, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions were released in November 2017. On October 18, 2022, the game was changed to a free-to-play model that relies on the purchase of various paid downloadable content packs that have been created since its initial release.
Like its predecessors, The Sims 4 allows players to create and customize characters, known as "Sims," build and decorate houses for them, and simulate their daily lives. The game uses a newly developed custom game engine, which enhances character creation and house-building tools, and introduces more in-game simulation with the new emotion and personality systems for Sims.
Development of The Sims 4 began as an online multiplayer game, but following the negative launch of Maxis' SimCity in 2013, the plans were changed to a single-player experience. Before the game's release, Maxis revealed that certain features present in earlier The Sims games would be missing at launch, citing insufficient development time and technical complexity.
This was not well-received by players. When The Sims 4 was initially released, critics gave mixed reviews. They praised the game's visual design, improved AI simulation for Sims, and simplified building tools, but criticized the lack of content in comparison to previous The Sims games, the frequency of loading screens, and the missing features.
Despite the criticism, The Sims 4 has been a commercial success. It topped the all-format video game chart in 2014 and had accumulated 36 million players worldwide by 2021. The game has been supported with numerous paid downloadable content packs, including thirteen expansion packs, twelve game packs, and several stuff packs and kits.
The most recent expansion pack, The Sims 4: Growing Together, was released on March 16, 2023. The game has also had several free content updates that have introduced and expanded major features, such as swimming pools, more character customization options, more building tools, and gameplay scenarios.

The feature of loose teeth has been reintroduced in The Sims 4 Growing Together expansion pack, which was previously disabled. The Sims can now wiggle, pull, and twist to remove their loose teeth, resulting in their mouth healing beautifully.
This developmental milestone is now available to over nine million newly created infants. The players' patience during this dental visit is appreciated, and it is hoped that they will find many Simoleons under their Sims' pillows in the morning.

The Sims 4 Gameplay
The Sims 4 is a social simulation game that allows players to create and direct the lives of virtual characters called "Sims". Unlike other games, there is no primary objective or goal to achieve, and the player is encouraged to make choices and engage fully in an interactive environment. However, the game does offer objective-based gameplay options if the player desires, with each Sim having lifelong aspirations, and "wants and fears" personal goals that are generated based on current gameplay.
The Sims 4 uses Simoleons as the in-game currency, and Sims communicate in a fictional language called Simlish. Sims have six needs: hunger, bladder, hygiene, social, fun, and energy, and the player is responsible for managing these needs by using various household items and furniture. Sims can earn money by getting a job, selling crafted items, or developing skills for specific jobs. Cheats are also available to modify gameplay and unlock hidden options.
The game offers extensive modding support for both script mods and custom content, allowing players to modify gameplay mechanics and add cosmetic items to the game.
New gameplay features in The Sims 4 include the Gallery, an online content exchange that allows players to upload, share, and download custom-made Sims, Sim households, rooms, and buildings. Emotion is a new gameplay mechanic that allows emotions to be affected by in-game actions, events, and social interactions with other Sims. The multitasking system allows Sims to perform multiple actions at a single time, such as having a conversation with other Sims while cooking.
