First I couldn't click on anything once I opened the child's simology panel, I couldn't scroll down on it which was the first thing I noticed was broken, then I couldn't open her inventory, switch to build mode of even save the game. After a restart the same thing happened so I restarted again and didn't go near her simology panel. However, I then was unable to get an adult sim to cook a cake, no options came up after clicking 'cook'. I tried to leave the world and go back in but it didn't work, and then the screen went black although the time was still ticking on. Please fix this ASAP as it's not playable! I have never played with mods or CC.

on the Menu screen you can click on load game. I just tried and the game is now working for me, my game is now playable again.
edit: it's still doing the weird thing with the character values as some others have mentioned

After I updated my game, its been unplayable.
- none of the panels at the bottom work except for "needs", and "simology" (which is broken for teens and children.)
- The tabs on top have the same problem, so i cant open the Menu and thus cant save or exit my game.
- One of the only tabs i can open is the "manage worlds" tab, but if i click either "save" or "just go", my gameplay screen just turns black but the game is still going. Nothing happens after this.
There have been other minor issues, but these ones make the game unplayable. Ive removes all my mods, repaired my game and restarted both the EA app and my computer multiple times.
Im also not able to download the Lovestruck pack even though nothing seems wrong.
Hope this is fixed soon.

My game is completely broken. I can open up the game, but once I am in, I can't click on any of the panels, the phone, settings, gallery, etc. The only thing I can click on is the manage worlds button, but when I attempt to go to manage worlds, I get stuck in a black screen. All mods are disabled, so there is nothing that should be interfering. The only answer is that EA simply released a game breaking update. I'm super annoyed seeing as a new pack was meant to come out today. I'm so tired of giving this greedy company money just for them to continuously screw us over like this.

While playing in my saves, all the pop ups wont open when I ckick them, Including the pop up for options and closing the game. Simology and needs open sometimes but not always. In simology the parenthood bars are glitching, keep changing form red to green and flashing the up and down arrows.

I am so tired of updates breaking this game. I have remained quiet for too long, I am issuing EA this WARNING! cease releasing UNTESTED patches and NEW GAME CONTENT, or I will cease buy any more stuff from EA period! I am former IT specialist and I have supported software development, and this is UNEXCEPTABLE! 24 hours and no hot fix for software your people broke!!! I Refuse to buy any more of you packs for sim 4 Because they bug out the game and make no fun to play! HEAD my word this MUST stop, or we are through! I am tired of waiting for months after pavls release for the bugs to be fixed and you busy make more BUGGY content instead of patches!

I am having the same issue and came here to see if anyone else was too. Nothing works after a short period of gameplay. I can’t save or do anything!
