Look for a hidden folder in your home folder called .wine
Since it starts with a . it is hidden and Finder won't see it by default.
You can remove it command line, but be very careful to do it right, or you may remove something you don't want to lose, and there is no Trash Can
This is the command to force delete a directory, including the directory to delete in your home folder.
rm -rf ~/.wine
Everything Wine made in there will be gone, which includes the fake drive C folder your Sims should have installed to.

There shouldn't be anywhere else your game installed files too... are you sure the space is really gone?
