You can now make the Sims 4 be The Truman Show literally as well as metaphoricallyGood afternoon, good evening and goodnight!

Good afternoon, good evening and goodnight!

She’s created a version of Truman’s neighbourhood from the movie, so your Sims, too, can wish their neighbours good afternoon, good evening and good night. And, even more impressively, there are two versions of it. One is the street from, as it were, Truman’s point of view at the start of the movie - a suburban paradise. The second is when the scales have fallen from his eyes. The lot is bordered with big movie set surrounds, a light has crashed onto the set, and we even have the iconic steps and door for your tiny Trumans to make their own escape.

This is a mammoth 64x64 lot, but it uses only base game content with no custom content or mods necessary - though I will say that it uses bits and pieces from pretty much every single expansion, DLC and stuff pack. But you can’t argue with results, and the results are impressive. Here are some snaps from Simoniona.

I have to say, this Truman Show build is especially worth a look. The attention to detail is brilliant, even including Truman’s little basement nest. The kitchen even has a little clutter pot that resembles the Mococoa hot chocolate tub thatgets advertised on The Truman Show in The Truman Show as part of The Truman Show.
