From chance-deaths like a Murphy bed closing in on a Sim, to a cooking accident that turns deadly, death has always been a big mechanic in the Sims series, and keeping Sims' autonomy on, leaving them with a low Cooking skill level, and unpausing the game can easily lead to the accidental death of a Sim as they go about their business. While later games in the franchise have given Sims the ability to pull themselves out of pools without a ladder, there is still a myriad of strange ways in which Sims can die. The original Sims, released in 2000, reached meme-like status for the different ways players could kill their Sims, with the classic of course being the removal of a pool ladder. The simple yet hilarious Sims cosplay makes for a quick and easy video game Halloween costume, with an added layer of mystery thanks to the many questions raised by Bella Goth in the games.Įven non- Sims players are familiar with the Grim Reaper and player deaths. A cosplayer and The Sims fan has poked fun at the game's fire death mechanics while cosplaying as Bella Goth, one of the oldest characters in the life simulation series.
