In response to

SketchUp

I agree - Sims is far more aesthetic than SketchUp. Although SketchUp has some texture painting capabilities, and users can often import 3D models into the environment (but we didn't really show that in the presentation).
On the other hand, exact measurements are pretty difficult to obtain in Sims and the scaling is actually quite funny (i.e. the lamp is the same size as the human), so it would make connecting to curriculum a bit difficult, unless examining the funny scaling was made the point of interest in an activity. Also each copy of Sims 4 is $50 and students would get easily distracted.
