kids in classroom- question

Hello There,

I have a question regarding multiplayer mode.

I would like to have 10 kids in my kids class play with SIMS in multiplayer mode.

Are toy familiar with a mode in which I will be able to set up my own scenarios for the game and to have them involved in solving it.

I guess I am looking for a solution to get them involve in real time and I believe it can be done with SIMS.

HELP😊

Also, can I set up my own challenges for example? #

    The Sims 4 is not a multiplayer game.

    You can write challenges for yourself and others to complete. Look at challenges that already exist.

    There were an old Sims online. I believe it was possible to play multiplayer there. However that was discontinued many years ago.

    There are many games that are multiplayer. You can Google "multiplayer games".

    That's such a lovely idea. I'm afraid though that The Sims 4 game is a single player game. There isn't an option in the game to play a multiplayer mode for The Sims 4.

    I think what you spotted was custom content than modifies the game files to enable multiplayer connection. The Sims 4 has a framework in place that supports the use of modded content. However, EA and Maxis (Sims Studio) doesn’t pre-screen, endorse or specifically support any particular Mod and so would encourage exercising use of Mods with caution and understand there may be risk (see The Sims 4 - Mods and game updates). For more on specific mods, like a multiplayer mod, perhaps reach out to the content creator for that mod to learn more.

    There are some EA games that are multiplayer. Depending on the age rating, the options available would change. You can check out what suitable multiplayer titles we have on PC from the Origin Store. Use these steps to filter the search results to match what you're looking to find. 

    1. Log into your profile on origin.com
    2. To the left of the page there will be a number of categories. Under the category 'Store' select 'Browse Games' and choose 'All PC Games'
    3. Scoot over to the right of the page now to find the search options
    4. Head to the second section titled 'Filter' and from there select the options you'd like to search by. Under the expandable heading 'Players' you'll find the game mode options like single player and multiplayer. 

    I've included some images as a visual guide to accompany those steps under the spoiler tag. Please click on it to expand and view them.
