Is the Sims 3 compatible on my Macbook?

Question

Hi,&nbsp;I am trying to figure out if I can download the Sims 3 on my macbook and will it work. I've tried looking for answers online but I'm still not sure.&nbsp;I have a Macbook Air, M1 2020, MacOS Sequoia 15.2. Is this compatible? And if it will work, would I need to download the EA app or the Origin app?&nbsp;Thanks for your help.&nbsp;

@sarah1123b&nbsp; Sims 3 runs fine on the basic M1 chip most of the time.&nbsp; There are certainly issues with the 64-bit version of the game, but they're no worse on your hardware than anyone else's.&nbsp; If you want a preview:

You'd need to install the EA App, as Origin doesn't work on macOS Catalina (10.15) or newer, and in a few months won't work at all.
