The Sims 4 Sleepover Sleepwear Set is available only for EA Play subscribers.
Well that’s weird!
We’ve been reporting about a new Sims 4 Sleepover Sleepwear set since early February. Ever since the last Patch for The Sims 4 players were able to uncover a new set of Sleepwear Clothing in the game files.
Today, we’ve checked the official stores to see if the new set is available. News flash – it’s out! But with a subscription…
Sims 4 Sleepover Sleepwear Set – Where to find it?
The latest set of pyjamas is available only if you’re a subscriber to EA’s game subscription model – EA Play. If you’re subscribed to this service model then you’ll be able to unlock the set.
EA_Cade has confirmed that The Sims 4 Sleepover Sleepwear Set is exclusive only for Consoles. The Set is excluded from being released on PC / Mac, even though they’re available in the game files.
Although the rumor mill has generally been “if it’s in the game files then surely it’s coming for free”, this console subscription deal breaks the streak.
The said set is available on PC and Consoles for folks who have the EA Play subscription. So far, the listing for this set has been spotted on Microsoft Store and Playstation Store. The EA Desktop App should have a game page soon as well.
EA hasn’t made an official announcement as of now as the set has been released quietly. We’ll update you with more information as we discover more. Stay tuned for more updates!

Countdown to The Sims 4 Infants Update
[janky target_time=”1678813200″ color=”#00580a”]
What’s included in this Patch?
There are several major features that have been revealed to come to The Sims 4 Base Game. Some which yet have to be announced!
Infants Life Stage
An entirely new life stage called Infants will be waiting for you in Create A Sim and Live Mode. You’ll be able to create your Infant Sim from scratch, choose new Traits, CAS Items and Clothing and play with the life stage in Live Mode.
The Infants Life Stage is entirely new, meaning that if you’re expecting to play with them naturally in Live Mode – you’ll have to grow out of the Baby / Newborn stage first. Click here for more information on Gameplay!
There’s loads of new Build Objects coming to The Sims 4 Base Game as well, mostly revolving around Infants.
CAS Skin Details
There’s more to the update than just a life Stage! Stretch Scars, Birth Marks and even Cesarean Scars are coming for all life stages to The Sims 4. From Infants to Elders, you’ll be able to assign an entire new set of Skin Details for your Sims.
The Sims 4 developer confirmed that The Sims 4 will be getting a reorganized pie menu when performing Social Interactions. Although we haven’t gotten a screen preview of what this will look like just yet, we’ll keep you posted.
…and more!
There are plenty of more features confirmed to come in the upcoming Base Game Update. Check out the breakdown:
Now, it’s worth repeating that this is a very large update for The Sims 4. Meaning that some precaution measures to protect your Save Files and / or Mods and CC are recommended!
If you’re playing The Sims 4 on Playstation or Xbox a simple Save File backup is all that we recommend. If you’re playing The Sims 4 vanilla style on your PC / Mac then creating a backup of your Saves is also recommended.
However, if you’re playing the game on PC or Mac with Custom Content and Mods installed then we recommend some extra steps.
Lastly, if you’re playing The Sims 4 on PC / Mac with Curseforge Mods Hub then the best advice is to wait for your favorite Modders and Creators to update their content. In case such CC / Mods are not compatible with the new Sims 4 version you should be expecting an auto-update for your content soon.

Sometimes, it’s the little things that really make a game feel immersive. One such small detail from past Sims games that’s missing in The Sims 4 is functional alarm clocks. For the most part, Sims tend to wake up at 6am every morning, provided that their Energy bar is full by 6am. While this may work fine for some Sims, other Sims will have trouble waking up in time to go to their night shift jobs. If your Sim’s lifestyle requires them to wake up at a different time, it’s largely up to the player to remember to wake their Sim up at that specific time. This can lead to Sims missing work, school, social events, afters-school activities, and more. The Sunrise Alarm Clock Mod for The Sims 4 can solve these problems!
Sunrise Alarm Clock Mod in The Sims 4
The Sunrise Alarm Clock Mod is by Lot51 and conveniently hosted on CurseForge! Players can automatically download and install the mod into their games through the CurseForge Mod Manager app. Also, remember to download the Core Library mod, which is required for the Sunrise Alarm Clock mod to work. The Core Library mod is also hosted on CurseForge. All links will be provided at the end of this article.
The mod is base game compatible but having High School Years can enhance certain features.
Once both the Sunrise Alarm Clock Mod and the Core Library are installed in your game, you’ll find the Reclaimed Wood Grain Alarm Clock in the Alarms section under Electronics. If High School Years is installed, the Bread n’ Butter Toaster Alarm Clock will have a Sunrise-compatible version available. Also, all ofScumbumbo’s TS2 conversion alarm clocks are automatically compatible with this mod.
There is a Sunrise option available on all compatible alarm clocks. Click it for options to set an alarm, manage existing alarms, or enable daily news reports.
Creating and Managing Alarms
When creating an alarm, you can choose a specific time of day for your Sim to wake up, have them wake up two hours before their career shift starts, or have them wake up with the sunrise. You can specify which days of the week you want your Sim to wake up to their alarm, too. So your Sims can enjoy a lie-in on their days off work! Also, you can set multiple alarms for your Sim for multiple days of the week if they need to be up at different times on certain days.
Furthermore, you can create alarms for specific Sims on the alarm clock. If your Sim shares a bed with a romantic partner, their partner won’t wake up to your Sim’s alarm. Likewise, your Sim won’t wake up to their partner’s alarm. If only it worked like that in real life!
If you want to temporarily disable an alarm or delete an alarm, you can do that too through the Manage Alarms menu.
The Daily Report
Your Sim can catch up on all the latest news as soon as they wake up to their alarm clock. Enable The Daily Report to get the weather and local news when your Sim shuts off their alarm. A popup notification tells you what the weather is like that day. Also, it tells you the three most recent Neighbourhood Stories.
Reward Traits
The Sunrise Alarm Clock Mod for The Sims 4 comes with two reward traits. One is Bedrock, which causes your Sim to sleep through their alarm a lot. The other is Rise n’ Shiner, which ensures your Sim always wakes up to their alarm.
The Bedrock trait only costs 25 Satisfaction Points. The Rise n’ Shiner trait is more expensive but still an affordable 225 Satisfaction Points.
Download the Sunrise Alarm Clock Mod for The Sims 4!
You can download the Sunrise Alarm Clock Mod from CurseForge! Remember to download the Core Library mod, too. The alarm clock mod will not work without it.
The rumored free set for The Sims 4 is set to release February 28th!
In the beginning of February we reported about new CAS Content coming to The Sims 4. Some of the contents that have been locked in the live version of the game were shown in the game files. As reported by several modders in the community.
Check out some of the previews below:
French Sims platform LuniverSims also reported on what now could be an in-game cover of this Create A Sim set.
Sims 4 Sleepover Sleepwear Set Release
Popular insider for content releases @alumia_italia has reported on a new Set release for The Sims 4.
The Sims™ 4 Sleepover Sleepwear Set (Release Date: February 28) | XBOX
Among expected other platforms, the insider reports that The Sims 4 Sleepover Sleepwear Set will have a release in its own content form on February 28th. Nothing is known officially, but we’re assuming this could be a free Set release. The set doesn’t have a Kit or Pack title tag next to it. Plus, the amount of new content from what we’ve seen assures this could be a free drop.
Whether it’s another new Sims 4 Free Set or just an SDX Drop, we’ll be there to update you on the news. Stay tuned on Sims Community!
Changes are coming to The Sims 4’s social pie menu!
The Sim Gurus have been dropping lot of new information about The Sims 4 Growing Together on Twitter and if you’ve been following the tweets, it’s hard not to feel hyped for all the new content coming in March. One tweet by SimGuruNinja was easy to go unnoticed in all the chatter, but we caught it! SimGuruNinja hinted that there are changes coming to The Sims 4 pie menu!
The Sims 4: New Pie Menu
If you don’t know what the pie menu is, we’re referring to the list of social options that pops up whenever you click on a Sim in Live Mode. This pie menu style of social options has been a staple of The Sims series since it’s original inception back in 2000. Over the years, as more social interactions were added to the game, the pie menu was divided into Friendly, Mean, Funny, and Romantic categories for easier navigation. The update coming before The Sims 4 Growing Together will change the pie menu again.
I’m actually lowkey excited for the pie menu re-org coming with the update 😯
Currently, in The Sims 4, the default pie menu claims to be “smart.” It suggests the most relevant options for the current conversation first. However, most Simmers choose to change the pie menu to The Sims 3 style in the Game Options. The Sims 3 style pie menu is divided into social categories. Most players agree that it’s much easier to find what you’re looking for in this menu. We hope the upcoming update will make things easier!
The Current Pie Menu is a Mess
Traditional Social Menu (The Sims 3 Style)
Nevertheless, even with The Sims 3 pie menu enabled, it’s a pain to click through all the options. I notice the tediousness of the pie menu the most with my SuperSim. She has every interaction unlocked from skills, careers, and aspirations. She has literally hundreds of social options to click through. It takes ages to find the interaction I want.
Dynamic Social Menu (The Sims 4 Style – Default)
So what exactly is changing with the pie menu? We don’t know for sure. SimGuruNinja did not give details, but since he was discussing The Sims 4 Growing Together, we’re hopeful that there will at least be a new Family category where all the family-related interactions are located. Also, with new features coming like social compatibility, family dynamics, and milestones, we wouldn’t be surprised to see support added for these special relationships.
The new Pie Menu update is expected to come with the Infants Base Game Update. Arriving March 14th!

SimGurus have shared plenty of new information and screens for The Sims 4 Growing Together!
Since the release of The Sims 4 Growing Together Gameplay trailer, the SimGurus have been sharing some additional information about the upcoming pack. From small bits of information and sneak peeks, Simmers are starting to get a real feel for the upcoming pack!
Views of San Sequoia
SimGuruNova has been sharing a few images of the upcoming world from Growing Together. Up until now, we hadn’t seen much about what to expect but, this small glimpse does make you excited to find out more!
This snapshot of the new world definitely leaves players wondering what the world will look like overall.
San Sequoia Lot Numbers
Now, through a retweet of SimGuruNova’s original tweet, SimGuruMorgan shared some further details about San Sequoia. The world will in fact include twelve new lots. This breaks down to four lots per neighbourhood in the Growing Together expansion.
12 playable lots! Each neighborhood has four lots. We always determine how many is best for each pack for performance (people with minspec PCs need to play too) and will weigh against gameplay needs. It’s always a series of thoughtful and carefully considered conversations.
As well as some information regarding new lots in the world. SimGuruMorgan additionally shared more images of the new world.
Even within the replies to both SimGurus’ posts, you can see them responding to further comments from players about the upcoming world!
New Pie Menu?
While there are still few details about this, SimGuruNinja has teased about the pie menu receiving a bit of re-organization. However, not much more is known about this or how it will look.
I’m actually lowkey excited for the pie menu re-org coming with the update 😯
Likewise with the reorganization of the pie menu, SimGuruMorgan has also hinted that the child Sims skills have been revamped in the Base Game ahead of The Sims 4 Growing Together coming out. Again, not much more is known about this at this time.
For sure! The way Child skills work hasn’t always been my preference, so I have a mod for that. We did rework that in BG for Growing Together though. It’s different from the mod I use, but cooler imo. I can’t wait to remove the mod and play the updated way when it goes live.
Be sure to check out the full Twitter thread for more GIFs of Kyle’s adventures!
Finally, amongst the screenshots being shared by the other SimGurus, SimGuruNinja managed to sneak an interesting GIF into the mix. The GIF in question features a Servo from Discover University carrying an Infant Sim around!
With the release of the gameplay trailer and additional information from The SimGurus, the community definitely is excited for this next release. The Sims 4 Growing Together is taking shape, and we can’t wait to see more soon!
We also know that even more information will be shared during the upcoming livestream event.
As always, stay tuned to Sims Community for all the latest news and information about The Sims 4 Growing Together!
The Sims 4 Growing Together gameplay trailer dropped this morning and it was full of new information about this upcoming expansion pack. The gameplay trailer expanded upon features introduced in the Sims blog and the reveal trailer, such as milestones and social compatibility. It also introduced us to a new feature called Family Dynamics, which players will be able to control themselves to tell the kinds of family stories they want.
So let’s dive right in and go over everything discussed in today’s gameplay trailer for The Sims 4 Growing Together!
The Sims 4 Growing Together New Features
Hopewell Hills is a new neighbourhood in San Sequoia, the new world shipping with The Sims 4 Growing Together. Indeed, Hopewell Hills is where the Michaelson family lives. The trailer showed off this lush suburban area with plenty of trees.
In-Law Visits
Previous promotional footage from The Sims 4 Growing Together suggested that relatives coming to visit was going to be implemented as a new gameplay feature. Today’s trailer confirmed that. Furthermore, we’re shown a grandfather walking up to the Michaelson house with luggage in tow. he narrator confirms that he is here temporarily as an overnight guest.
Family Dynamics
We’re introduced to something we haven’t seen before in The Sims 4 Growing Together: Family Dynamics! Each member of a household can now have a unique relationship with every other household member set by the player. We saw the married couple in the trailer have a close family dynamic, while their son and daughter have a difficult family dynamic. Moreover, this is going to inform the way those family members interact with each other.
Also, these are probably not all the dynamics in the expansion. These are just the ones we saw in the trailer:
Distant
Jokesters
Difficult
Close
Social Compatibility
Social compatibility was expanded upon in the gameplay trailer for The Sims 4 Growing Together! Likes and Dislikes came in a base game update shortly prior to the release of The Sims 4 Snowy Escape. The new expansion pack will expand on this feature. Sims who have common interests will have good social compatibility. Sims with opposing interests will have bad social compatibility. This compatibility will also affect how those Sims interact with each other.
We also saw some new likes and dislikes but it was hard to tell exactly what they were. One icon featured the famous thinker statue and another was of a boxing glove coming out of a jack in the box.
Milestones
We know quite a bit about milestones at this point from previous promotional material, but we see some specific milestones in the trailer that we haven’t seen before. Certainly, this may not be an exhaustive list of every milestone in the expansion pack. We’re just listing all the milestones we saw in The Sims 4 Growing Together trailer. Also, keep in mind that these are likely not the literal names of these milestones. The trailer displayed these milestones as unlabeled icons.
Using a chair to pull themselves to a standing position
Learning to roll over
Learning to crawl
Other Details
Also, there were a lot of other small details in The Sims 4 Growing Together and new objects that some Simmers may have already spotted in previous promotional material. Indeed, there’s a treehouse shown in the backyard of the Michaelson home. Moreover, there’s an adorable shot of a child Sim kissing his infant sister on the forehead. We see the upright piano again in a different swatch. Also, there appears to be a new baby bassinet in the background of a shot, and we even see a very tiny adult and child walking together on a sidewalk in the distance. We hope this means Sims will be able to go on walks and hikes around any neighbourhood, not just in Mt. Komorebi.
Also, what are you most excited for in The Sims 4 Growing Together? Did you spot any details that we missed? Tell us in the comments! Indeed, we always love hearing from the Simming community.
Check out the new milestones we saw in the gameplay trailer!
By now, we know for sure that milestones are a new feature coming with The Sims 4 Growing Together. We’ve gotten plenty of information on milestones before. The Sims Blog talked about them extensively. We also saw some references to them in the initial reveal trailer. Today’s gameplay trailer went a step further and showed off some new milestones we haven’t seen before! We got to see a lot of milestones for infants in particular.
So let’s jump right in and take a look at all the new milestones in Growing Together!
The Sims 4 Growing Together Milestones
Obviously, milestones are important moments in a Sim’s life that affect their emotions towards other Sims and shapes future aspects of their lives. Indeed, milestones are for all ages and the gameplay trailer for The Sims 4 Growing Together showed us a few more milestones for different stages of life. Furthermore, keep in mind that these are not all the milestones in the expansion. These are just the ones we saw in the gameplay trailer. Also, these are probably not their official names. We only saw unlabeled icons of each milestone.
New Growing Together milestones for infants include:
Poopy diapers
Baths
Trying new foods
Learning to roll over
Learning to pull themselves up
Learning to crawl
Growing Together Milestones for children include:
Losing baby teeth
Learning to ride a bike
Also, new Growing Together milestones for adults include:
Falling in love
Getting married
Having a baby
Starting a fire
Getting fired from your job
We are very excited for these new milestones in The Sims 4 Growing Together. They feel a lot like memories, but they have more of an impact on our Sim’s lives than memories did in previous Sims games. We absolutely love it when old features get added to the game with big improvements!
Ever since the first reveal trailer dropped for The Sims 4 Growing Together, Simmers have been wondering whether grandparent visits were just movie magic or an actual feature. Today’s gameplay trailer confirmed that in-laws coming to visit is a new feature coming with this expansion pack. You might want to make sure your Sims have a guest room ready for them because they’re bringing luggage!
The narrator confirms in The Sims 4 Growing Together gameplay trailer that the grandfather was staying with the Michaelsons as a temporary guest. We saw him bring his luggage up to the house so we can only assume he intends to stay for a couple nights! The Sims Twitter account also confirmed this feature.
Depending on the family dynamics of the household in The Sims 4 Growing Together, in-law visits can be an exciting or a stressful event! The grandson has a great relationship with his grandfather and is super excited to have him stay for a while. He’s been feeling left out since his sister was born. He’s looking forward to having someone pay attention to him again for once. Meanwhile, the boy’s father does not get along with his father-in-law. They are socially incompatible and having his wife’s father in the house is causing him some stress.
The Growing Together gameplay trailer did a great job showing off how “it’s all relative.” An in-law coming to stay for a while can be exciting for one Sim in the household but stressful for another Sim in the household. Those Sims’ social compatibility and family dynamics will influence this sense of perspective.
The Sims 4 Growing Together: Stay in the Know!
We are super excited to see how these new features mesh together! We loved how subtle and yet powerful all of these new features appear to be. It looks like they’re all going to play off of each other in a way that we haven’t seen before. This is very exciting! More meaningful relationships between Sims is exactly what the community has been asking for!
We’ve got all the important screens right here for you!
A new gameplay trailer for The Sims 4 Growing Together dropped today and it was full of brand new information! The trailer expanded on milestones and compatibility mentioned in previous promotional footage and showed off a new family dynamic feature. We also get quite a few new scenic shots of the new world, San Sequoia.
As always, Sims Community was there to capture all the best screens from the gameplay trailer! We’ve compiled over 95 screenshots from The Sims 4 Growing Together for you (98 to be exact). You can see all the new milestones, compatibility, and family dynamic features for yourself in these screens!
The Sims 4 Growing Together Screens
Check out the screenshots below for a good look at San Sequoia, some of the new Build items and CAS assets coming with this expansion, as well as new meaningful features for families! The gameplay shown off in the trailer was subtle but we think it will have a big impact on the way Sims interact with each other! Growing Together is definitely Generations 2.0, which boasted a similar style; less stuff and more meaningful relationships. We’re here for it!
The Sims 4 Growing Together launches on PC/Mac and consoles on March 16th, 2023. Players who purchase the expansion before April 27th will receive the Outdoor Playtime digital bonus content. The Outdoor Playtime digital bonus content includes a new swing set, a toddler slide, and a wearable infant carrier.
Are you ready for the new expansion next month? Have you done anything to prepare your saves for infants and Growing Together? Tell us all about it in the comments! Indeed, we’d love to hear about your plans for all the new content!
It’s been a couple of weeks since The Sims team revealed the trailer for Infants during the Behind The Sims Community Livestream. Jam packed full of exciting new content, many players have been eager to experience this new life stage in-game.
Even though we don’t know how much Infants and Toddlers will differ, it’s been incredible to see players react to the upcoming content online. There really is a huge buzz surrounding the new additions to The Sims 4. Luckily, there isn’t too much longer to wait!
The reveal trailer did give us a much more detailed look as to what to expect when Infants are added to the game. You can take a look at both the reveal trailer and behind the scenes clip below!
However, do you remember spotting these details during both segments of the livestream?
The Adorable Onesie
The opening scene to the reveal trailer showing us our first look at Infants. There’s no denying that not only does she look incredibly comfortable, but also cute in her onesie as she sleeps.
New Objects for Infants
Even in this image, we get an idea of some of the new Build and Buy Mode objects. From new Decor items to fit all of your Infants needs, wall decor, toys and more!
New Infants Create A Sim Options
Of course, there will be a range of brand-new clothing for our Infant Sims! From adorable dresses to sweet sleep options, little formal suits, bears and more!
Breastfeeding Infants
Your Sims will be able to breastfeed infant Sims in the new update!
Messy Fun and Food
Experience dinner time with some added mess, or make it fun while your Infant discovers new foods!
Playtime Fun Time
Cute hats, adorable outfits and fun play mats! Take playtime outside with your younger Sims as they learn through playing with different toys and interacting with other Infant Sims.
Infants and other Sims
It looks like not only can other Sims play and interact with Infant Sims, but it also looks like you’ll be able to possibly develop their skills through various interactions.
Infants being Infants
It’s completely normal for Infants to have the odd moment of burping and things like that. After all, they are still young and learning. It appears that Infant Sims will be exactly the same too!
Infant Chaos
A birthday party with Infants, in The Sims 4 what could possibly go wrong?
Everything in this screenshot is relatable for so many people and our Sims, but did you notice the Llama wearing a bow in the background?
Behind The Scenes of The Sims 4 Infants
Even the behind the scenes clip that was shown to us during the Behind The Sims livestream gave us a different perspective to Infants. We even got a glimpse of some more gameplay of the new The Sims 4 Infants in action!
With it being a behind the scenes segment, it’s important to keep in mind that some of what was showcased is subject to change before the release in March.
Playhouse or Dolls House?
The Sims 4 has seen its fair share of dolls houses over the years. However, during the Behind The Scenes segment, we got a quick look at what could potentially be a playhouse for Infant Sims to interact and play with!
A Closer look at Infants in Create A Sim
Additionally, during the behind the scenes segment we got another look at not only how they developed Infants in The Sims 4 to act in Create A Sim but also a closer look at some of the more options coming in too!
Stinky Diapers are still a thing!
Just like in real life, even your Sims will have to get used to changing more stinky diapers with Infant Sims.
Are you excited about the addition of Infants to The Sims 4? Let us know in the comments below and which part of the Infants reveal was your favourite!
Don’t forget that Infants are coming to The Sims 4 on 14th March 2023 across all platforms!
The Sims team have announced the long awaited gameplay trailer for The Sims 4 Growing Together Expansion Pack is dropping tomorrow!
On February 23rd, 2023 at 8am PT/ 4pm GMT / 5pm CET, the community will be able to get a closer glimpse at what’s to come in the upcoming pack!
The Sims 4 Growing Together Gameplay Trailer
You can catch the reveal of the gameplay trailer over on YouTube. Don’t forget to hit the Notify Me button to catch the trailer live when it’s released!
The YouTube Premiere currently focuses on just the front door of the Michaelsons home. A tweet originally shared by The Sims team earlier today also has us thinking as to who this Visitor could be!
Now, with a number of possibilities as to who this visitor could be, we will have to wait until tomorrow to find out more! We wonder who it could be!
The Sims 4 Growing Together is launching on 16th March 2023, shortly after the infants update a few days prior.
There is definitely plenty to come for The Sims 4 and with both the update and expansion. This is definitely going to an expansion to consider if you love telling stories through The Sims 4. Additionally, if you love the family game play experience or even building family homes. This pack has so much to offer, and the gameplay trailer is certainly going to showcase even more when it drops tomorrow!
Let us know what you are looking forward to in the upcoming expansion. Alternatively, what you are hoping to see featured in the gameplay trailer?
Honour your Sims of the past with this funeral home!
With the Growing Together expansion pack launching next month, legacy players are no doubt excited to start playing through generations with more content. One rather sad aspect of legacy saves is that previous generations eventually grow old and pass on, handing the torch down to the next generation. It’s been this way since The Sims 2. Death is a part of life and generational players are going to need somewhere to lay their previous generations to rest. This need inspired us to build a funeral home in The Sims 4!
Welcome to Eternal Rest Funeral Home in The Sims 4
Viewing room
Eternal Rest Funeral Home is not just a funeral home for The Sims 4! It is also a cemetery, a mausoleum, and a morgue. It also sits on a fairly small 30×30 lot. Real estate is tight in The Sims 4 and single function venues just aren’t a smart use of limited space. Your Sims will not only be able to gather here for funerals and viewings, but they will also be able to lay their loved ones to rest. For you storytellers out there, the morgue can be a great backdrop for all kinds of stories.
Morgue
You might be thinking that a 30×30 lot couldn’t possibly fit that many urns and tombstones. It’s true that the outdoor cemetery has just 21 plots; however, enter the mausoleum and you will find four basement levels that can hold up to 135 Sims. In total, you’ll be able to lay up to 156 Sims to rest at this Sims 4 funeral home. This should be plenty of space for a 10 generation legacy challenge but if it’s not, the lower levels can be expanded.
Outdoor cemetery
Why a Funeral Home?
Four basement levels of catacombs to lay Sims to rest
Why have a funeral home at all when we don’t have funerals in The Sims 4 (and it doesn’t look like they are coming in Growing Together, either)? Functionally, having dozens of ghosts on your home lot is a nuisance. You may still want to have Great Grandma Ethel’s spirit around but her nightly activities break everything in the house. Place her urn or tombstone on a different lot and she can stick around without disrupting the whole house every night. For the sentimental Simmers, it’s important to give friends and family an opportunity to say goodbye when a loved one passes. This lot gives them an opportunity to do that.
