The games we cover

Pixels Diary curates mods and custom content for cozy life-sim games, the kind you play with a cup of tea and a big renovation plan. Right now we cover two: Paralives and The Sims 4. Pick your game and start browsing.

Paralives

The indie life sim everyone waited years for is finally here. Paralives launched in Early Access on Steam in May 2026, and its modding scene is just getting started. We track the first wave of Build Mode objects, Paramaker items, and gameplay tweaks. One honest note: Early Access patches can break mods, so we re-check our links after every update.

The Sims 4

More than a decade in, The Sims 4 has one of the largest custom content libraries in gaming, which is exactly why it needs curating. We handpick CAS pieces (that’s Create-a-Sim, the character editor), Build/Buy sets, gameplay mods, and reshades that look beautiful and still work in the current game version.
