After a decade of tranquility in the world of The Sims, burglars are making a dramatic return, ready to disrupt the peace in your virtual neighborhoods! The Sims 4 developers have just released a thrilling update, though not every player is thrilled at the prospect of having their Sims' homes targeted by these cunning thieves.
Just like in the earlier versions of the game, installing an alarm system remains a key defense against these unwanted visitors. When activated, it will summon the police who will swiftly arrive to apprehend the burglar. For the more technically inclined Sims, there's an opportunity to upgrade the alarm system, enhancing its reliability and enabling it to automatically alert the authorities. If you find yourself without an alarm, you can still call the police directly, though you'll be relying on their timely arrival. Another intriguing option is attempting to befriend the burglar, turning a potential foe into a friend.
For those looking for more unconventional methods to deal with burglars, The Sims 4 offers a range of creative solutions, albeit requiring specific expansion packs. You can unleash your loyal dogs, harness the powers of spellcasters, vampires, or werewolves, or even use a special freezing ray to immobilize the intruder. These exotic defenses add a fun twist to protecting your Sims' homes.
The good news is that this exciting burglars update is now available and completely free for all players to enjoy—or perhaps endure, depending on your perspective!
