Please can you provide more information about your Mac. Instructions on how to do so and what to provide here - http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-Mac/READ-FIRST-Sims-4-Mac-Help-Guides-and-Troubleshooting/m-p/4612...
I’m asking for specific details because it could either be a known freezing issue or a specific problem on Macs with M1 chips.

It freezes in CAS, during gameplay, during build, during saving etc it's a game problem not just a Mac problem. There's not another thread that explains the issues so I replied to this one.

I'm having problems with the screen going blank. It hadn't happened in a while, but it started again, so I'm not sure if it's a problem when you start a new game now.
