Although The Sims isn't designed for children with its complex tools and extensive reading. Still, it's important for parents and guardians to consider the maturity required to process the game content. Skill Rating 10-16 year-olds usually have the required skill to enjoy this game. Sims can also set themselves on fire which causes their skin and clothes to go black, but again there is no physical harm they just hop around shouting. In both cases there is no obvious physical harm or injury. It is possible to slap another Sim and defend this slap by grabbing the hand and throwing it away. Violence during the game is mostly slapstick taking place in a cloud of smoke. Sexual content during gameplay is the same as before with sex taking place out of view although the bed sheets can be seen moving with the characters making sounds underneath.
It is also possible to dress your Sim in revealing lingerie. Compared to the Sims 3, players are given greater ability to manipulate the shape of their Sims by dragging body parts this includes the ability to enlarge breasts which the player can then zoom in on. Content RatingThe Sims 4 is rated PEGI 12 with mild violence and sexual innuendo.
