Can You Marry the Grim Reaper in The Sims 4? A Guide to Romancing Death

The Allure of Death’s Embrace

In The Sims 4, players have always been fascinated by the mysterious Grim Reaper. But can your Sim actually tie the knot with Death itself? The short answer is yes, but it requires some creative maneuvering and the use of cheats.

Summoning the Reaper

To begin your unconventional romance, you’ll need to summon the Grim Reaper. This typically involves the unfortunate demise of a Sim on your lot. Once Death arrives to collect their soul, you can initiate your plan of seduction.

Adding Death to Your Family

The first step in marrying the Grim Reaper is adding him to your household. To do this:

Enable cheats by pressing Ctrl Shift C and typing “testingcheats on”
Shift-click on the Grim Reaper
Select “Add to Family” from the options that appear

Removing the Reaper’s Restrictions

By default, the Grim Reaper can’t engage in romantic interactions. To change this:

Open the cheat console again
Type “traits.remove_trait isGrimReaper” or “traits.remove_trait trait_isGrimReaper”

This will allow your Sim to flirt, kiss, and eventually propose to Death incarnate.

Tying the Knot with the Reaper

Once you’ve removed the Grim Reaper’s restrictions, you can proceed with courtship as you would with any other Sim. Build up your relationship through friendly and romantic interactions, then pop the question when the time is right.

Restoring the Reaper’s Powers

After you’ve achieved your goal of marrying the Grim Reaper, you might want to restore his otherworldly abilities. Simply use the cheat console to type “traits.equip_trait isGrimReaper” or “traits.equip_trait trait_isGrimReaper”.

A Match Made in the Afterlife?

While marrying the Grim Reaper in The Sims 4 is possible with cheats, it’s important to note that this isn’t a feature intended by the game developers. Your mileage may vary, and updates to the game could potentially affect this workaround.

Remember, experimenting with cheats and pushing the boundaries of the game can lead to unexpected results. Always save your game before attempting such unconventional romantic pursuits!
