After a decade of tranquility, the world of The Sims is set to experience the thrill of burglary once again! In a recent blog post, The Sims 4 developers have announced an eagerly anticipated update that brings burglars back into the game. While not every player is excited about the prospect of being robbed, this feature adds a new layer of challenge and excitement to the gameplay.
To protect their virtual homes, players can install an alarm system, a tried-and-true method from previous Sims games. Once triggered, this system will alert the police, who will rush to the scene to apprehend the criminal. Skilled Sims can even upgrade these devices, reducing the chance of malfunction and ensuring an automatic police response. In the absence of an alarm, players have the option to manually call the police, hoping for a timely intervention, or they might choose a more daring approach by attempting to befriend the burglar.
For those looking for more creative and unconventional methods to deal with these unwanted visitors, The Sims 4 offers intriguing alternatives. Players can unleash their dogs, spellcasters, vampires, or werewolves on the burglars, or even freeze them with a special ray. However, these exotic defense mechanisms are only accessible through the corresponding expansion packs, adding an extra layer of strategy and investment for players.
The good news is that the burglars update is now available and completely free for all players, ready to test their home security and perhaps their creativity in dealing with these new challenges.
