You know when you just want to woohoo and you’re in a room full of strangers but you woohoo anyway? No? Me neither. Well now the sims will actually take other people into consideration before fumbling around under the blankets. Oh, and there’s also some new Christmas stuff, I suppose. Woohoo!
There’s plenty more woohoo to be had in our list of the best sex games.
“We have updated the Holiday Celebration Pack with some new objects (a holiday table, fireplace, nutcracker, and centerpiece). And a fun little object called the Holiday Cracker,” say EA. “What’s inside? A poorly written joke, a little holiday sweet, or a teeny Meduso of your very own.”
Outside of the festivities, though – that’s where the fun really is. Another patch note fixes a bug that saw your sims piling plates just outside of your home’s bounds where they could never be retrieved. Now, if your sims do dump your plates, they disappear. If only we could patch this into real life.
There’s loads of comical stuff like this, along with the new sex habits. For example, your maid will now wash your coffee maker, instead of throwing it away, which is nice. Have a read of the full patch notes below if you fancy a laugh.
General Issues

- Please note: The Handy reward trait provides no benefit to Kleptomaniacs or Romantics.

Backyard Stuff
- Children will now gain motor skill after each trick slide they perform, and not just the first one.
