Vintage Glamour Stuff is a DLC that comes with a collection of nice-looking furniture and clothes that are all about old-fashioned luxury, with formal clothing, glamorous furniture, a vanity table, a globe bar and other items that belong to a very specific theme. But it shouldn’t be dismissed easily as it also comes with something…

Sunday Sims Spotlight #16: Lights, Camera, Sims
The name The Sims 4: Moschino Stuff might trick you into thinking that this pack is all about Moschino clothes. It is, but it’s also about photography, and that’s the primary reason why we loved it and why we’re recommending it to you on this lovely Sunday. What is a Sunday Sims Spotlight? A weekly…

Sunday Sims Spotlight #15: To Hot Tub or not?
What do you do when your Sims need a break from the house? For us, that’s an easy question. We put them in a pool and remove the ladder. Kidding, kidding. When it comes to outdoor RnR, The Sims 4: Perfect Patio Stuff can make the outdoor area of our Sims’ homes a little more…

Sunday Sims Spotlight #14: Making Chores Matter
Doing laundry is one of those things that was bound to creep into a life simulator like The Sims.

Tiny Living Stuff is anything but a tiny DLC. Sure, it doesn’t add a new career or another hobby for our Sims to pick up, but it does help you find out how much you can fit into a really small house without making it feel cramped? Tiny Living Stuff is not about removing a…

Sunday Sims Spotlight #8: Chaotic Wedding Vows
Ah, weddings—who doesn’t love them? Speaking of which, remember the good old days when we used to just throw a wedding arch in the backyard, click a button, and get it over with? That was all the excitement we needed in The Sims. But as things grow and evolve, simple is no longer enough. My…

Sunday Sims Spotlight #7: Stressful Daycare
We used to just ignore kids. In The Sims 4 as well. That gameplay loop was never our thing, especially the whole process of feeding them, sending them to school, and waiting for them to age up. The Parenthood pack is a piece of content that gave us a reason to actually pay attention. It…

Sunday Sims Spotlight #6: Nifty Knitting Stuff
We remember how our grandma loved to knit. She had boxes of socks. That’s all she did—socks. We didn’t ask why socks, but we do remember asking her why she knit every single day. Her answer was that it relaxes her. We didn’t get it then, but now we do see the appeal. So, we…
