The Sims 4 Best Criminal Careers That Are Fun

The Sims 4 Criminal Career
Be The Boss or The Oracle - you decide!


 

The Sims 4 Criminal Career is one of the original careers available in the base game.

To begin with, the pay is notoriously low. But the promotion bonuses are exceptional! If your sim is hot-headed, mean, or an evil genius, keep reading.

There are two branches of the criminal career: The Oracle Branch and The Boss Branch. The Boss branch is by far the most profitable of the two, paying more per hour and having you work fewer hours a week! But don’t write off The Oracle career yet. Each has their own highlights.

Criminal career

We don't all have to be upstanding citizens.

There are five levels to progress through before you have to pick a branch. To begin with, you get paid very little. But each promotion comes with a large bonus and cool rewards.

The promotion requirements and daily tasks are mischief-related with ‘playful’ being the ideal mood. Your sims can become playful by watching comedy on a TV, taking a bubble bath, or watching funny videos on ‘Sim.tv’.

Once you reach level five, you choose which branch to progress into – The Boss or The Oracle.
