I’m actively working on the mod, so it may still contain some issues. Please keep an eye on updates - they will be frequent 🤪
OfficeAffairs is a social gameplay expansion mod focused on workplace drama, power dynamics, relationships, and story driven interactions. It introduces new targeted social mixers, custom buffs, hidden traits, relationship bits, career related systems, and reactive outcomes that integrate directly into live gameplay.
I have been playing The Sims for many years, and this is a mod I personally always wanted to exist in my own gameplay - something that adds the kind of narrative depth and dynamics I felt were missing.
For now, events may happen quite frequently. This is intentional for the first release and testing phase. In future versions, pacing and behavior will become configurable.
You can play both sides of the story:
Play as a Boss or play as an Employee. Each role has its own interactions and progression paths.
You can now experience a full career narrative:
- Start as an employee
- Build relationships and make choices
- Progress through your career
-
Complete the required advanced career program
- Become a Boss
Gameplay Overview:
The boss system is dynamic and flexible:
- A Boss can be generated automatically when an employee joins a career
- Or created manually by the player using cheats or naturally
To become a Boss:
- Reach the top level of a full-time career
-
Complete the required advanced career program via the computer or phone
- Apply for a Boss position via PC or phone
This creates a natural progression path instead of relying only on generated bosses. The Boss is a fully playable Sim with their own traits, career, and role in the story.
You can play both sides of the story.
As an employee:
- Build a relationship with your boss
- Attempt to seduce the Boss
- Ask for a promotion
- Ask for a PTO
- Ask to be hired
As a Boss:
- Offer jobs to Sims
- Fire employees
- React to relationship dynamics
- Give bonuses
- Give PTO
- Influence story progression
Cheats:
The following commands are available:
oa.init_boss
Promotes the active Sim to CEO
Requires: Sim with a full-time career
oa.init_employee
Initializes the active Sim as an Employee
Requires: Sim with a full-time career
oa.help
Displays available OfficeAffairs commands
Current features:
-
Play as a Boss with unique social power interactions
-
Play as an employee and build a risky office relationship
-
Ask for promotion through special interactions
-
Attempt to seduce your boss
-
Boss can fire an uncooperative employee
-
Boss can offer a job
-
Boss can give bonuses
-
Boss can give a PTO
-
Boss can promote employee
-
Sims can ask to be hired
-
Custom buffs, relationship bits, and hidden traits drive outcomes and long term consequences
This is only the foundation. The system is designed to expand with more branches, decisions, and reactive storytelling over time.

Huge thanks to TURBODRIVER for WickedWhims:
Without this incredible mod and the powerful systems it provides, OfficeAffairs and many other gameplay mods would not exist.
Download: WickedWhims
You can support TURBODRIVER here
OfficeAffairs is compatible with both the public and patreon versions
Important:
Current gameplay is mostly designed around rabbit hole style and active full-time career events and social interactions. More visible systems and deeper gameplay layers will be expanded in future updates.
Please be gentle, this is my first public release and still a learning journey. I plan to keep expanding the project and would love to hear ideas and suggestions about future directions.
Follow me here, feel free to leave comments and share your suggestions. I will be happy to respond as soon as possible.
Thank you for the support 🥰
How to Play Guide

GETTING STARTED
--------------------------------------------------
Create your main character
Start by creating a Sim who will become the employee.
Most gameplay systems are designed to begin from the employee perspective
and activate after joining a career.
Your Sim can become a Boss through progression.
Join a career
Once your Sim gets a full-time job, the OfficeAffairs system can:
• Automatically generate a boss for that career
• Allow the boss to be created manually (through progression or cheats)
The boss is a fully playable Sim, not just a background character.
THE BOSS SYSTEM
--------------------------------------------------
The Boss:
• Exists as a real Sim in the world
• Has their own career and traits
• Can be played directly
• Drives story events and interactions
GAMEPLAY BASICS
--------------------------------------------------
Core gameplay includes:
• Targeted social interactions
• Rabbit-hole or Active career activities
• Workplace events for the Boss
• Expanded pie-menu interactions
More visible systems will be added in future updates,
while many mechanics already run behind the scenes.
PLAYING AS EMPLOYEE
--------------------------------------------------
As an employee, you can:
• Build a relationship with your boss
• Attempt to seduce the Boss
• Ask for a promotion
• Ask for a PTO
• Ask to be hired
Your choices can trigger buffs, reactions,
and long-term consequences.
PLAYING AS BOSS
--------------------------------------------------
Your Sim can become a Boss through progression.
Requirements:
• Reach the top level of a full-time career
• Complete the required advanced career program via the computer or phone
After meeting these conditions, your Sim can apply
for a Boss position.
As a Boss, you can:
• Offer jobs to Sims
• Fire employees

for testing and storytelling purposes.
