I enjoy The Sims most when it's ruining my day with random events and today The Sims 4 is bringing back one of the greats: the burglar. After a not-so-sneaky teaser this week The Sims 4 has dropped a base game update which, among a list of bug fixes, also adds a unique new thief to snatch your family's stuff. It is great to see the old gag make it back to the series, especially after I've had such a good time getting burgled in The Sims 3 recently.
The burglar was a series staple for The Sims until The Sims 4, where they've always been tragically absent. Back in the day, a horror movie-esque violin wail would signal danger approaching the house—sometimes just a raccoon coming for your trash but sometimes a wrong'un to steal away those hard-bought possessions.
