Download 10 Official Maxis Creations for The Sims 4 from the Gallery

The Gallery in The Sims 4 showcases some of the finest creations from Maxis. While most Townies are introduced through expansions, several unique Sims are only available for download from the official Maxis account. These Sims may originate from game trailers, box art, previous installments, or could have been redesigned families. Incorporating these characters into your gameplay can invigorate your storylines or turn them into lively NPCs, often saving you time compared to creating multiple Sims from scratch.

However, a significant drawback is that none of these families come complete with established relationships in The Sims 4. They lack friendships, romantic ties, and even rivalries, which can create a disconnect when integrating them into familiar neighborhoods or introducing them to long-lost relatives. To enhance your gameplay experience, it’s advisable to move them into their respective homes and assign them careers aligned with their backstories.

10 The Sul Sul Roommates Need Jobs

None Seem To Have Gone To Work

The Sul Sul characters symbolize the diverse careers introduced in TS4: Get To Work. Yet, none of them have jobs when first downloaded, placing the onus on players to set them up through the phone or via career cheats in the game. With a group of seven and a budget of just 20, 000 Simoleons, locating a suitable home can prove challenging.

Each Sul Sul character has been designed with traits that reflect their respective occupations: George L’Ernitage and Ceous Leto excel as Scientists, Marcus Raven aims for the stars as an Astronaut, Cole Henson aspires to be a Bodybuilder, and Bill Wu channels his skills into Programming. In contrast, Brett Stubbs embodies a more slothful persona seeking wealth without a clear path. Meanwhile, Aileen Rauvu seems to have a penchant for a life of crime.

9 Casting Call for The Sims 4: Get Famous Trailer

A New Star Could Be Born

The trailer for TS4: Get Famous introduced a cast of background Sims who now possess their own households. While some are primarily intended for NPC roles, players can mold their stories within the acting career, potentially achieving stardom.

Among them, Chaz Goldstein serves as a no-nonsense bouncer guarding exclusive clubs from eager wannabes like teen fans Kaylee Maguire and JC Putnam. Poppy Boyd, the ever-watchful paparazzo, keeps tabs on notable figures, while Sarai Bellamy directs commercials from behind the scenes. Giuliana Harley supports her as a dedicated makeup artist.

8 The Dragostes Are Simply To Die For

Looking Through the Past, Present, and Future

Among the classic Ravenwood families, the Dragoste family stands out with Papa Dragoste leading the clan along with his three adult children. Approaching his twilight, Papa is busy drafting a will and preparing for his eventual ghostly transformation, courtesy of TS4’s Life & Death expansion. His eldest daughter reminisces about the past, while the younger son, Travis, prioritizes fun over responsibility.

The youngest, Angelika, is keen on preserving the family lineage. Married to her love, Paul, they are raising twins Justine and Robin. However, with Paul carrying the Chased By Death trait, his fate may be foreshadowed to arrive before Papa’s.

7 The University Squad Shows School Spirit

They Just Aren’t Enrolled Yet

This lively group of five roommates aspires to attend Britechester and earn degrees from TS4: Discover University. However, they have yet to apply or gain admission, leaving their academic paths entirely up to the player.

Confident and ambitious, both Kristy Sheehan and Janie Johnson prioritize love and family, which may seem like an unresolved narrative. Bruce Sterling adds comedic flair with musical prowess, while Daisy Shane excels academically yet struggles with her temper. Kit Bae rounds out the group, boasting impressive strength while disinterested in team sports.

6 Cop And Llama Are Unlikely Detectives

In Too Deep Undercover

Sierra Moss and Dave Richardson form a quirky detective duo in TS4: Get To Work. Sierra leans on evidence and intuition while solving cases, while Dave employs a less conventional method, often donning a llama costume to stay undercover. He wears it in all instances, except during extreme weather conditions, thanks to TS4: Seasons.

Players have noted the duo as a playful nod to the iconic Law & Order series, with Sierra reminiscent of Olivia Benson and Dave echoing traits of Odafin Tutuola. Left to their devices, the pair can explore various activities, including starting families if Neighborhood Stories remains active.

5 The Climate Family Is Ready For Every Weather

All Four Seasons In One House

The Climate family embodies the essence of the four seasons presented in TS4: Seasons. Arthur brings energy reminiscent of spring, while Janine’s serious demeanor reflects the wait for autumnal transformation. Summer exuberates vibrancy, perfectly suited to her name, as baby Nicolas embodies winter’s embrace with his quiet demeanor.

Distinctly dressed for their seasons, the Climate family stands out while out and about. However, they default to everyday attire during extreme temperature conditions. When attending social gatherings, their seasonal outfits can appear slightly over-the-top.

4 A Good Restaurant Depends On The Back Of The House

They Live To Serve Mankind

The culinary team featured in TS4: Dine Out has united as the Back of the House Flair family. They are excellent choices for players centering their experience around the Chez Llama restaurant, one of EA’s highly rated lots. However, managing the restaurant can be tricky due to glitches affecting customers and chefs.

Olivia Fredrick operates the restaurant, balancing the need for profit with service quality. Lucas MacCoy, as the maître d’, ensures guests are settled in comfortably, while Carl Flipper serves as the primary chef, oftentimes with grease on his attire. Servers Micah Henley, Julia Ramos, and Hanna Holder round out the team, although their uniforms seem more suitable for casual dining establishments.

3 Malcolm Landgraab Becomes An Eccentric Geezer

They Are Busting Out Again

An older rendition of Malcolm Landgraab and his family is available for players in the Gallery, modeled on their appearances from the console versions of TS1 and The Sims: Bustin’ Out. While it skips over Malcolm’s young adult years, his transition into elderhood fits within the narrative.

Malcolm retains his Evil and Snob traits, enhanced by a new Self-Absorbed trait. His wife, referred to as Mom, embodies the Slob trait and is frequently seen in bathrobes. Their adult children, Mimi and Dudley, share Lazy and Slob traits, further underlining the family’s chaotic living situation. They are well-suited for a default Landgraab home that’s ready for some disorder.

2 Sebastian Michaelson Is A Proud Patriarch

Three Generations Of Michaelsons

Sebastian, a prominent figure in The Sims 4 marketing, was not included in the TS4: Growing Together expansion initially. Fortunately, Maxis later rectified this, placing Sebastian in an odd position where he has no direct family relationship with his daughter, Celeste Michaelson. While he can visit her, a family connection cannot be established in the game.

Nevertheless, Sebastian stands out as an entertaining Sim. As an Elder, he possesses Active and Childish traits, often engaging in playful antics when left to his own devices. Being a widower also allows him the opportunity to explore romantic pursuits with other Sims.

1 Callia Maebey Is The Face Of The Sims 4

No One Can Escape Her Gaze

While many players may not recognize her name, virtually everyone who has played The Sims 4 has encountered Callia Maebey’s piercing stare. She has been a recurring figure in promotional material for years, notably in an April Fool’s prank in 2022, where she humorously took control of the game’s main menu.

When added as a playable character, Callia transforms into a less intimidating figure. She possesses High Maintenance, Erratic, and Self-Absorbed traits, requiring several expansions, like TS4: Spa Day, to reach her full potential. Even so, her wardrobe often lacks variety, leading to comical situations where she dresses inappropriately for specific events unless her appearance is customized in The Sims 4.
