In an era where live theater isn't possible, playwright Celine Song got creative by using The Sims 4 to act out an Antov Chekhov play. The adaptation of Chekhov's 'The Seagull,' titled 'The Seagull on The Sims 4' drew in hundreds of viewers as a two-night event broadcast on Twitch.

The main part of her backstory is that she broke herself. Most of the careers were ones from Sims 3 Base game that should have been in the Sims 4 and I don’t think I cared about Careers as much as other people might have. I like making homes and unless I’m making a dungeon in a basement (that we didn’t get until 2015) I didn’t really play with this pack.
Song referred to the show as a 'durational installation art piece,' and encountered many unique challenges trying to get her Sims to act accordingly for the play's scenes. The event knit together the worlds of gaming and theater, where the audience participated and gave advice to Song along the way. From creating the characters to trying to get them to follow the proper actions, it was an interactive experience that bridged the gap between game streaming and the theatrical arts.
It didn't go completely smoothly, of course. The stream did go out at one point, and the Sims were a bit rebellious, ignoring Song's orders to take care of more pressing needs like eating.
The play was a part of the New York Theatre Workshop's Artistic Instigators Program, meant to provide help to theater professionals who have been displaced by the pandemic. Song's creativity allowed a space for theater to continue even if the venues are closed, with a unique sense of audience participation that came from the Twitch chat.
Talking with Polygon, Song discussed the unique experience of bringing theater into The Sims. “In The Sims, we as players are both Gods and voyeurs,' said Song. 'That seemed to closely resemble the experience of writing and watching a play as a playwright, but without the living, breathing humans as the actors.'
It remains to be seen whether we can expect a Sims 4 adaptation of Waiting for Godot anytime soon, but Song has certainly set the stage to make it possible.

5. Waterdeep: Dragon Heist
Sims 4 Dungeons And Dragons Mod
This Module takes place in the city of Waterdeep and is setbefore the Dungeon of the Mad Mage. In this shortened adventure, players willgo from level 1-5 as they explore different areas of the city and uncover aplot that involves a number of villainous characters.
The first thing that needs to be mentioned is that you don’tactually perform the heist. This may be disappointing for some players who areexpecting to play through the module like a heist film. Your characters aremore involved with investigation and uncovering plots.
The location and characters of this module are very welldone and contain a lot of detail. It also has a rather unique feature. The DMhas a choice of four different villains. Each of these can impact the plot indifferent ways. This gives the module a replay factor.
If there had to be one complaint, it would be about the villain’slairs. A great deal of the book (60 pages) is used to describe each villain’slair. This would be fine, but at no point do you visit these lairs. It is niceto have the background, and I guess you could use them in homebrew, but thisseems a bit of an oversight.
