Sims 4 not moving past town map prior to playing.

[burndownla]

I downloaded sim 4 last night, got my household and played for a few hours.

Today when I go to play it it is taking me straight to town map to select my household. I hover over it and then press the play button on my household.

It comes up the loading screen then directs me straight back to the town map with a plain white box (looks as if there should be some writing in it) and just an "okay button". I have tried this so many times but it keeps doing the same.

Anyone else having this problem?
