[[File:The Sims 4 Icon.png|60px|left|link=The Sims 4]][[File:TS4 official boxart.png|200px|right]]'''''[[The Sims 4]]''''' is the fourth main installment in [[The Sims (series)|''The Sims'' franchise]]. Like the previous games in the series, ''The Sims 4'' focuses on creating and controlling families of virtual people called "[[Sim]]s".
 
Sims in ''The Sims 4'' have more emotional depth than in any previous game in the series. A Sims' emotional state affects which actions they perform and how the actions are performed. One Sim's emotions can affect other Sims around them. Sims in extreme emotional states can even [[death|be killed by their emotions.]] The emotions that a Sim can or will experience are affected by their [[moodlet]]s, [[Trait (The Sims 4)|traits]], and life stage.
 
Create a Sim is revitalized, making it more intuitive and flexible than in previous games. Sims' physical features are customized by clicking-and-dragging on different parts of the body. There is also a "detail mode," which allows more precise modification of a Sim's facial features. The game's [[build mode]] has also been overhauled to be more powerful and intuitive than ever before. Players can now adjust the height of a building's walls and its foundation, and can move, turn, expand or contract entire rooms with a few clicks.
 
''The Sims 4'' also features a brand-new [[Gallery]] system; an integrated online content browser. Sims, families, and houses can be added to the Gallery and downloaded by other players. Other players' works can also be downloaded, added to the game, and be played immediately.
 
''The Sims 4'' has an official release date of September 2, 2014.

[[File:SIMS3GARDEN2.jpg|right|thumb|A Sim gardening|235px]][[File:Gardening skill icon.png|link=Gardening (The Sims 3)|left]]'''[[Gardening (The Sims 3)|Gardening]]''' is a [[skill]] in ''[[The Sims 3]]''. The skill is augmented by the [[Green Thumb]] [[Trait (The Sims 3)|trait]], and the '''Super Green Thumb''' [[lifetime reward]]. It involves the planting, growing and harvesting of various plants that Sims can find within each world. Unlike the previous Sims games, ''The Sims 3'' gardening has been much expanded upon, introducing many real-life plants and several fictional species such as the '[[Life fruit|Life Fruit]]', 'Flame Fruit', and 'Plasma Fruit'.
Line 13 ⟶ 25:
 
Only [[teen]]s and older can tend the garden. Children cannot learn the Gardening skill, but they can learn the Child Gardening [[Secret skills#Generations|hidden skill]]. Once a child grows up into a teenager, they will earn Gardening skills at the same level of their Child Gardening and [[Afterschool activity#Scouting|Scouting]] hidden skills.
