Like its predecessors, The Sims 4 allows players to create and dress their characters, called "Sims," and simulate their everyday lives, from furnishing dream homes to building relationships and achieving life goals.

However, with its new emotion and personality systems, some players can’t resist having fun by pushing their Sims to their absolute limits.

Whether it's constructing death traps or unleashing unimaginable chaos, there's no denying the satisfaction you get from testing Sims' boundaries.

So, for players who enjoy tormenting their Sims, here are ten mods to try for The Sims 4.

With this mod, players can commit violent acts and murders, killing Sims in over 40 different ways, including with firearms, knives, and melee weapons. They can quickly turn aggressive, beating Sims up through punching, kicking, and more.

Sims can also develop a horrible reputation, becoming the most hated and feared Sim in town. To make things even worse, players can join gangs and start feuds. What could get bloodier than that?

Sims can also experience car accidents and bullying. So, for players looking to change their Sims' fates and add dark twists, this mod is worth trying.

Players who want to give their Sims a tough time can try llazyneiph's Black Death mod.

Based on the real bubonic plague and the bizarre, unbelievable cures that were thought to treat it, this mod allows Sims to experience the horrors of a deadly infection.

After unleashing the plague in their save file, infected Sims will quickly pass the disease on to others. Some fortunate Sims may encounter Plague Doctors who can cure them.

However, it’s more likely that they will remain uncured and die a slow, uncomfortable death. So, players who want to say goodbye to their Sims can watch as their characters slowly perish.
