Re: Sims 4 - Cottage Living: Cannot save game, Grim Reaper stuck on lot
@AStuke If your game freezes and won't let you exit without saving in the normal way, I would go into the computer and 'quit' through the computer, by whatever manner your computer uses. (On PC - close the app on the computer and if this won't work Task Manager > End Task. On Mac close the app on the computer and if this won't work Activity Monitor > Quit (and if this doesn't do it choose 'Force Quit').
Then you could re-enter your game and see if the game is still at the point before the grim reaper came. If it saved after the grim reaper and you wanted to prevent this you could roll your game back to a previous save as follows:
In-Game Method:
Go to the Main Menu and choose 'Load Game'. Select a saved game, then hover over the small folder icon and click this icon...
This will reveal your most recent saves on that 'Game Save'. Select the 'Recover' button on the version (see time stamp) that you prefer:
Game Files Method:
Or you can do this in the game files by following the directions here:
