Get rid of MacKeeper straight away. It's a really nasty piece of software and more often than not actually compromises the operating system resulting in instability and deleted files. For more info read the following links:

You don't need any clean up apps on your Mac. The operating system does a very good job of defragging and tidying itself up every time you restart it.

After you've successfully got rid of it  go to Applications > Disk Utility then select your hard drive in the left hand side panel and choose Repair Disk and then Repair Permissions.

No, repairing the game doesn't take long 🙂

Let me know how your game is after you've done all that.

    @kieraaaab

    No need to shout (typing in all caps is considered shouting), there are lots of people asking for help on these forums. Also, never underestimate how helpful people can be if you ask nicely 😉

    Go into Documents > Electronic Arts and move your Sims 4 folder to your desktop. Now try and launch your game - does it work?

    Edit - also, which model Mac do you have? Instructions on how to find out here - http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-Mac/READ-FIRST-Sims-4-Mac-Help-Guides-and-Troubleshooting/m-p/4612396/highlight/true#M162
