Hey, kari. Based off the system requirements that are listed on this EA help webpage for Sims (https://help.ea.com/en/help/the-sims/the-sims-4/the-sims-4-system-requirements/), this IdeaPad should be able to run the game since it satisfies the minimum system requirements listed on the previously linked webpage. Since the specifications of this IdeaPad are just enough to satisfy the game publisher's system requirements shared, you may have to set lower graphic settings in game to ensure smoother performance. Also, this system comes with Windows 11 Home in S mode, a more secure, lighter version of the Windows 11 Operating System that only allows the downloading of applications from the Microsoft Store. If you try to launch or install an executable or .exe file, like this game, the system prevents it. Should you desire to switch to Windows 11 Home, here is a link to a Microsoft webpage that shares how to do so: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-and-windows-11-in-s-mode-faq-851057d6-1ee9-b9e5-c30b-93baebeebc85
