10.14 Mojave
Sims 3
Game is loading and playable but a warning dialogue box comes up the first time it is loaded stating that it will not run in future versions of macOS. This is because Apple are dropping support for 32-bit apps in a future update to the OS:
Sims 4
Game is loading and playable. Unfortunately it is also coming up with a warning dialogue box. It is unclear what this is related to as Sims 4 is 64-bit. Apple have also announced they will be dropping support for OpenGL in favour of Metal which may cause issues.
11/07/18 Update:
Sims 3 and Sims 4 still working after the 3rd dev beta has been released. Still getting error messages for both games although they are now more exact.

I’m not real savvy when it comes to this kind of stuff. I am playing The Sims 4 and I recently received this message. What does this mean moving forward?
Thanks!

@elramirez1976 Are you referring to the message that says that in the future, some applications may not be supported? The likelihood is that the next version of OS X after Mojave won't run any 32-bit apps at all. This includes TS3 but not TS4. There are still questions about whether updates to other features of the operating system would be incompatible with TS4, but those of us who don't work at Apple really have no idea.
Still, the best thing to do is to wait to update your OS until you're sure that all of your preferred apps will still run, or that you can install new versions. But you have almost a year before the next OS is released, so I wouldn't worry about it right now.
