Lifestyle
Lifestyles are a game mechanic introduced in The Sims 4: Snowy Escape. It consists of a series of traits that can be acquired by Sims by performing or not performing certain activities. These traits in turn influence Sims' behavior and emotions as they interact with their environment. A Sim can have a maximum of three lifestyles at once.
Snowy Escape includes 16 lifestyles and many of these will conflict with another lifestyle (e.g. Techie and Technophobe). Lifestyle traits can also be lost if a Sim does not maintain the behavior required - for example if a Sim with the "Indoorsy" lifestyle decides to spend lots of time outdoors, they may lose the "Indoorsy" lifestyle and may even acquire the "Outdoorsy" lifestyle instead.
