I got sims 4 for pc and mac and i cant get it to work on my google pixel book i figured at sence in was a computer it would work. I have no idea what todo. Can someone please help me.
Actually, you can, but it's going to be a lot more work then you likely signed up for. You'll need to side-load either a Linux-based operating system or a Windows operating system on it through developer mode. There are tutorials on this online.
If you go with the Linux operating system, you will need to install a program called Wine in order to open/install Windows programs such as Origin and The Sims 4. Keep in mind the amount of storage space your Pixelbook has and rather or not it will be enough for all of this, especially if you want expansion packs, stuff packs, etc.
There are rumors flying around that Google will natively support Windows 10 on Pixelbooks soon, so keep an eye on that. It could make this process significantly easier for you.
