There’s secret codes you can use to do extra stuff with your Sims.
The Sims 4 comes with a few cheat codes that players may want to mess about as they provide extras including precious Simoleons. To access the extra cash and more, the cheats need to be activated by pressing [Ctrl] + [Shift] + C and then you can punch in the commands listed below. There are also extra cheat options if they’re enabled which we’ve detailed in the table.
It’s a bit of a cheese but if you like messing around with the game some of these might be worth a shot. Remember kids, cheaters never win!
