The Sims 4

"Play stupid games, win stupid prizes."

-- Good advice to the Sims in Gray's games

The Sims 4 is a 2014 life stimulation game created by Electronic Arts, where players control human characters known as "Sims".

Normally, players would do their best to make their Sims be as successful in life as possible. Gray doesn't do that though. Instead, he forces his Sims to die in various horrible ways while also hopelessly breaking the game (every Wednesday I might add.)

Another reason why he tortures Sims is because the Sims make ridiculously pointless choices on their own, such as:


 * failing to find a bathroom on their own, making themselves dirty for days straight
 * drowning in a 2x2 ft pool (or just any pool without a ladder)
 * leaving piles of food to rot instead of cleaning up
 * urinating themselves
 * not fixing damaged items
 * standing around, not doing anything
 * mourning instead of fulfilling their needs or doing something else useful
 * always setting the house on fire (see also: Australia Man)
 * swimming in concrete or grass
 * stumbling to their deaths
 * literally ceasing to exist.

While he often uses random Sims to test out these scenarios, there are some reappearing characters in his torture series. Right now, the family of tortured sims is called the Man Family, named after the most iconic character, Florida Man.

Another iconic character from him Sims games is Spleens, a female cat whose eyes were twisted.
