Shrek is a part of popular culture, whether you like him, dislike him, or don’t care about him at all.
The way he looks is perfect for reaction memes. His story is different enough that you can watch it more than once and still find it interesting.
And all the people who live in this crazy universe? All of them are satirical jabs at their canonical counterparts that combine humour and creativity perfectly.
I’m trying to say that the Shrek series as a whole is fun, memorable, and pretty darn persistent.
So I thought I’d see if any brave CC creators or modders tried to combine our favourite green ogre with The Sims 4. Check out these real gems!

13. Ogre Mod by Kawaiistacie
Even though it’s no longer on their website, which means it may not be supported anymore, Kawaiistacie made a really cool Ogre Mod that added the ogre as a new occult state to TS4.
The canon says that ogres are wild, uncontrollable monsters that eat people. This mod basically lets your Sims eat other Sims if they want to.
There’s also the tamer half-ogre option, in which your Sim only turns into an ogre at night (like Princess Fiona) and can still eat regular human food.
Fantayzia’s mod review video shows how the mod works! If you’re ready to walk on the wild (green) side, use this direct link to download the mod.
12. Shrek Ears by Clown Confetti
Even though Princess Fiona turned into a full-fledged ogre at the end of the first movie, she didn’t lose her sense of style.
Stardust Sims 4 has made it possible for Sims to wear her famous green-and-gold dress.
For the top to work, you need The Sims 4: Get Together pack. The green skirt, on the other hand, works with the base game.
11. Fiona Green Dress by Stardust Sims 4
Even though it wasn’t advertised as a Shrek or Fiona dress, I found this one in a Sims 4 lookbook I had saved on Pinterest (sadly, no credits were given).
Princess Fiona fashion was the theme, and I can see why that was chosen.
Check out the green dress on the Royal; it looks like something the ogre princess would wear.
10. Sherabhim’s Royal Dress by Medieval Sim Tailor & Carpenter
Before I say anything else, let me say this:
Even though the hair is named after Princess Fiona, the person who made it says nothing about her.
In fact, nothing is said about the Shrek movie at all. So this probably has nothing to do with anything.
But I thought it was cool that a braided ponytail named Fiona looked like the princess’s famous braided hairstyle.
If you want to look like her in-game, whether you’re a human or an ogre, this long braid should work great.
09. Fiona Hair by singingpicklessims
Alternatively, you can also use this gorgeous, messy braid by simandy to create TS4 Fiona.
It’s a little closer to her canon design, what with the braid hanging straight down the back and the messy, face-framing strands at the front. It also comes in several shades of ginger.
08. Ambrose Hair by simandy
Mike Myers yelling “Get out of my swamp!” in a heavy Scottish accent is somehow one of the most memorable moments in the first Shrek movie.
Maybe it’s the delivery. Maybe it was the timing.
Whatever the reason, it’s a line that needs no context.
And thanks to Akisima, you can now have said swamp in your Sims 4 game!
It’s a gorgeously green outdoor abode suitable for any respectable ogre. Feel free to watch the creator’s video walkthrough, too! It’s embedded at the bottom of the download page.
07. Shrek’s Swamp by Akisima
JenniSims’ My Beloved Monster Collection pack contains decorative statues of the Shrek cast!
Items include the titular character Shrek himself, his wife Fiona (now full ogre), donkey (not quite monstrous, but at least he’s accounted for!), and the gingerbread man (also not monstrous).
There’s even a small replica of the “Beware of Ogre!” sign that Shrek put up around his swamp. It’s a cute, collectible set that definitely makes for an interesting interior.
06. My Beloved Monster Collection by JenniSims
Although EA does have a solid shade of green available in their default 18-swatch palette, it doesn’t quite match the lime-ish green of our favorite ogre couple.
In fact, some eagle-eyed fans even claim that Shrek and Fiona have slightly differing (green) screen tones.
So if you’re aiming for accuracy, might be best to get some external custom help.
Flow3rBunny’s WMS Unnatural Skintones pack contains several verdant variations that you can experiment with to get the best royal ogre shade.
05. WMS Unnatural Skintones by Flow3rBunny
Are these lipsticks canonically part of the Shrek franchise?
Nope.
Am I going to recommend them anyway just because they have “Shrek” in the title?
Absolutely. They’re green lipsticks!
They’re an awesome addition to your CAS catalog, ready to be pulled out and wielded whenever you’re in a high fashion or artistically avant-garde mood.
04. Shrek Time! Green Lipsticks! N1 by rissa.exe
Unlike the Pets expansion for TS3, the Cats & Dogs expansion pack for TS4 only introduced two animals into the game: cats and dogs.
No smaller pets (hamsters, lizards, vultures, etc.), no horses, and definitely no donkeys.
Which is a total bummer if you’re trying to recreate the Shrek cast in your game.
Donkey is every bit as iconic as the movie’s titular character, you know?
Enter EA Game Changer Kalino’s custom animal lineup. From what I understand, the three add-ons are basically large dogs decked out in the cosmetics of a horse, a zebra, and – drum roll, please – a donkey.
It’s a pretty clever (and cool!) way to sneak extra animals into the game.
03. Donkey (CC) by Kalino (EA ID: TheKalinotr0n)
Although this isn’t specifically marketed as Shrek-inspired or Shrek-themed CC, I think it’s worth including in your mods folder.
It’s basically a bunch of random mud puddles that you can place anywhere and everywhere (with the help of bb.moveobjects on) to simulate a dirty, sludgy, or swampy area.
And seeing as mud plays a huge role in pretty much all Shrek movies, I figure having a couple independent mud splotches on-hand can’t hurt.
Besides, they can really spruce up the home of any respectable, swamp-dwelling ogre.

01. The Potion Factory
The Potion Factory is based on the legendary Potion Factory from Shrek.
Your sims can use it as a community lot.
Currently set to be a Museum, but can be changed to Retail lot or any other type of lot you desire.
Happy simming!
