sims game is paused and theres a blue film over the screen

my cat pressed something on my keyboard and now my sims game is paused with a blue filter over it. the curser still works but it wont let me click anything and the plumbob is still spinning so i know its not frozen. Anyone know how to help without me having to exit my game? (its unsaved and i spent the day building a whole house)

  • @sushidog710  Without knowing what key your cat might have pressed, it's difficult to say whether this is fixable.  But in your position, I'd try Esc and Tab (not at the same time), then M for map mode (Manage Worlds), then F1/F2/F3 for live/buy/build modes; if those didn't work, just start pressing random keys.  I'm not joking; you might hit a key that reverses the problem or at least gives you another menu option that you can in fact access.
