Bowling was reintroduced in The Sims 4: Bowling Night Stuff. Bowling alleys can be used by anyone who is a child or older. Bowling is also a new 5 level skill in the stuff pack and its ideal emotion is focused. When children use the bowling alley, gutter bumpers are automatically enabled. Moonlight bowling is also available in the pack after hours, illuminating the entire bowling alley in bright and flashing cyan/blue colors; this will provide Sims with a "Playful Décor" moodlet, making them playful.
Getting a strike will make Sims playful.[confirmation needed] However, Sims will become angry if they get too many gutter balls. An extremely rare feat, known as a perfect llama, is achieved when a Sim bowls ten consecutive strikes in a single game. A perfect llama is also a new in-game achievement, worth 125 points (the most of any other achievement in The Sims 4), and grants the Sim access to a new trophy in build mode.
