Re: Can't Hit the Play Button on Sims 4!

Give these a try:

The Play button in Origin is gray

Make sure your game is updated to the newest version (see above). If that is the case and the play button is still gray, try the following things (or any combination of it)

    The advice of hero puzzlezaddict:
    "This is usually related to having notifications enabled in Windows. Although you may not see the notification itself, your computer thinks you're clicking that and not the game. Disable notifications while you're playing and see whether it helps"

    .
    You can also try to change the resolution settings of the screen in the game options. Try the highest first. Try to play in windowed mode. (This can cause the Load Button to move from where Windows these notifications display.)
