Re: [FAQ] The Sims 4 and Chromebooks

Sims 4 does not run on chromebooks. You need a Windows computer as Indy said above

we are having same problem. hopefully developers will make available.

You may be able to if you can get a PHYSICAL copy.

You can get a usb CD reader, Wine(a Windows emulator for chromebooks), and a 16gb SD

It will take a while for you to get Wine set up,i might add.

If not you can find a old office compter to run it on.(It has very low specs)

can you play sims on a cloudbook?

No, those are not made for gaming at all.

I have a samsung chrombook and i want sims 4 sooooo bad like really bad. can u help???☹️

Chromebooks don't support The Sims 4 at this moment. 
So the only way you can play is on MAC or Windows. 

i have an hp chromebook, and i really want the sims!!! it wont let you  get any downloads except if its off the chrome webstore!!!! this stupid computer doesnt do anything useful, i might as well not even have it!  

Chromebooks have their own OS so yes, that's how it works. Just as Windows RT only has programs from the Windows Store and ipads only have apps from the Apple Store.

how do I GET THE SIMS  fooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur  iv'e tried to get that game for 5 years ppppppplllllllllleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaassssssssseeeeeeeeeeee  tell me where the truck I can get the god darn game.

The game has only been out for almost two years so no idea why you searched that long.

You can buy the game through Origin.https://www.origin.com/en-us/store/

ik it sucks! i would pay $50 if i could download sims 4 on my chromebook.

Hi @Laureng04

most probably not cause they are usually underpowered for the game.

My first guess would be no, just because Chromebooks aren't made to game on. So they aren't as powerful to run a game like The Sims 4 on.

Also there aren't many people working on Chromebooks. But who knows, maybe they will add it, but I wouldn't count on it.

Who knows maybe the new The Sims app game will make it's way to the Chromebooks... 

same

I have the sims 4 disc but I have chrome.  If you have the disc, is there a way you can install it on chrome ??

Like mentioned several times in this thread the answer is no.

SAME!!!!

i have a HP chromebook and really want to play.
