The Sims 4: Courtyard Oasis Kit

The Sims 4 Courtyard Oasis Kit was developed by Maxis and published by Electronic Arts, released in 2021. It is a small kit-style DLC that focuses on a single cohesive aesthetic inspired by riads and North African courtyard design rather than introducing new gameplay systems.

The kit adds a selection of build and buy items such as decorative tiles, archways, lattice windows, columns, fountains, hanging lanterns, textiles and tropical plantings intended to create an intimate interior courtyard space. The pieces are modular and color-coordinated to let players design enclosed, sunlit family rooms centered on a fountain, with emphasis on ornamental detail and mood-driven décor rather than functional gameplay changes.

Promotion for the Courtyard Oasis Kit followed typical franchise channels, using visual previews on the store listing, social media teases and short showcase images highlighting the fountain, intricate tiling and arch motifs; community builders and content creators were encouraged to display courtyard layouts and styling ideas in livestreams and gallery posts to show practical uses of the kit’s compact item set.

Reception among players was generally positive for those who valued decorative kits, with many appreciating the cohesive theme, the elegant tile and arch assets and the immediate payoff for home decorators; some players noted the limited scope typical of kits and a desire for more objects or varied gameplay, but the kit found a clear audience among builders focused on atmospheric, themed interiors.
