'''Drowning''' is a form of [[death]] in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4]]''. Drowning is the second form of death which covers all ages from [[child]] to [[elder]], the other being [[fire]]. A [[Sim]] will drown in a pool when there is no means of getting out. In ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims 2'', deleting a pool ladder takes away the Sim's only means of escape. However, in ''The Sims 3'' and ''The Sims 4'', Sims can climb out of the pool without a ladder, so players who want to keep a Sim from getting out of a pool must use a wall to block them. When Sims can't get out of a pool, they will keep swimming until their energy is used up. When this happens, they will die of fatigue. Also, in The Sims 3, player can use cheats to lower the Hunger need of swimming Sims, thus making them starve and drown.

In The Sims 3: Pets, If a pet runs out of energy in a pool, they will teleport out of the pool. Pets can actually get the "Drowning" Moodlet. However, there is a bug where they will still have the "Drowning" moodlet after teleporting out. When it runs out, they will drown, but the game treats the animation as death by old age (pets). Instead of being red or blue depending on their lifetime happiness, the ghost will have the same blue texture as the drowning ghost for Sims, minus any ghost effects or noises.

In ''The Sims 4'', the ghost of a Sim who has drowned has hydrophobia (fear of water) and leaves puddles around similar to ''The Sims 2''.
