Old games like The Sims 2 hold a special place in our hearts, not just for their nostalgic appeal but also for their ability to run smoothly on low-end PCs and laptops. This beloved life simulator stands out as the best installment in the series for many, thanks to its attention to realistic details that seem to be missing in later versions. However, as an older game, it lacks some of the modern mechanics and items that newer players might expect. This is where mods come into play, enhancing the game experience and addressing any frustrations. Here, I've curated a list of the 20 best mods for The Sims 2 that can revitalize your gameplay.
