10 Worst Things You Can Do In Sims Games

10. The Classic Pool And Ladder Scenario

It wasn't long before someone figured out that removing a ladder from a swimming pool could end in a Sim drowning to death, something that many people began to appreciate more than they should.

Sure, it might be an easy way to plan a murder but it is also worth noting just how long it takes because your Sim definitely doesn't go down without a fight. This means that you have to sit and wait while your Sim slowly and painfully swims themselves to death. It's dark, demented, and often upsetting, especially as they keep voicing their concerns as to why they cannot get out.

But that's the thing, why can't they get out? Surely they don't need a ladder to just climb out of a swimming pool? In the early days of The Sims, this was indeed the case, but after numerous drownings, the Sims got smart and managed to pull themselves out once Sims 3 came along. This then led players to become even more inventive, resulting in the classic fence around the pool job that put an end to a Sim ever escaping a pool again.
