“Eras” Mode (Optional) – Play The Sims across multiple historical periods

Hello everyone,

I would like to suggest the addition of an optional “Eras” mode in The Sims 4, allowing players to choose a historical period (Antiquity, Middle Ages, 19th century, etc.) for a specific world or save.

This mode would be entirely optional and designed to remain compatible with the current architecture of The Sims 4, without impacting the existing modern gameplay.

Why this idea deserves a like: high replayability, recurring community request, fully optional, compatible with existing systems.

How it could work: a dedicated world for the chosen era, automatic era rules (no phones, no electricity, modern objects hidden, etc.), era-specific content (clothing, build items, careers, aspirations, events).

Call to action: if you would enjoy playing The Sims in different historical periods, please like this idea and share which eras you would like to see. The more support this suggestion receives, the more visible and relevant it becomes.

Thank you for your time and support.
Kind regards.

  • I'd go for this!  You've pretty much said the eras I'd be interested in but I'll narrow it down a bit to Ancient Rome (i.e. end of the Republic/early Empire), 11th-14th century, 1790-1820.
