The Chromatic Legacy Challenge: 3 Year Anniversary Edition
Sul Sul! 🌺🍋🍒 ☔ 💝🫐🍫🍇🏁🍀🌹🎮🍊💎🌲
I’ve been revisiting this challenge every year since it’s creation (2020), and I’m back again with a slightly modified version of CLC. While playing some old challenges like Not So Berry, I realized that I have some ideas for a challenge myself. That’s how I came to create The Chromatic Legacy Challenge, and I’m excited to share it with everyone! This is a VERY colorful challenge that’s updated to March of 2023. This challenge is designed to get the very best out of the Sims 4, and I hope you like it! There are 15 generations with certain unique requirements to complete their generation! It’s always interesting to see how long it takes you to complete all the generations. Tag me at or @maximum.sims to share your beautiful creations with me! Thanks so much for playing, hope you have fun! You all are absolutely wonderful.
ALL GENERATIONS: RULES
-Like other colorful challenges, it is suggested that the hair, makeup, clothes, and house of your heirs ARE the color of the generation (which is listed in the rules of each generation).
Money cheats are not allowed! Promotion or skill cheats are also not allowed. The only kinds of cheats that are allowed are cheats that influence a babies gender/number and (if you wish) or need cheats.
-If you post your game, tag me! Tag your post with #chromaticlegacychallenge on Instagram or Tumblr (@maximum.dino) and tag me @maximum.sims!
-Normal lifespan is recommended
-At the end of the day, do what you want. If you don’t like a requirement, don’t have a pack, you don’t have to do it. This is designed for you to have fun, so do what you want! <3
-I love you, thank you for playing, it makes me so happy to see! I hope you enjoy

You adore them, too, but you do wish you had a bit more independence. You spend lots of your time playing soccer with your parents (even though it isn’t their strong suit) and dreaming of one day climbing Mount Komorebi with all of your friends by your side.

While your parents were out partying and adventuring, you read every single book in your bookcase. You have fantasized about beaches with clear and blue waters- but Sulani isn’t exactly like the stories. There’s a lot of garbage in the water, and the water is murky green. You make the decision to start an organization to help Sulani flourish once again. That’s why you absolutely hate litterbugs- well, until you meet a special litterbug… which makes you more determined than ever to convince this person to listen to your passion. It’s a tough job, especially for someone who can’t even order a drink at a restaurant, but you find yourself enchanted with them- almost as much as the ocean you love.

11 ~ Velvet 🌹
You grew up with one central rule in your home; Stay clean, stay green, and stay safe. Of course, You decided to be magenta instead of green, but you still abide by the rules. While helping your family rescue turtles and remove trash from the beautiful blue waters, you were inspired to draw them all. Every second of your life you were thinking about how beautiful everything you saw would look if you had created it by hand. What a beautiful world you live in, and you just must capture its beauty. You work hard to learn your craft, working as a painter for your livelihood. But once you get to the top of the career, you realize that life working on art every day all day was causing you to lose the passion for art that you always had as a child. So… You quit.

Your family tells you that you’re the next person in a long line of successful people, but you don’t really understand.

You want to be a gamer… or maybe a simtuber? Or maybe you should have settled for making grilled cheese in your parents’ basement.

14 ~ Turquoise 💎
Your family was always very important to you, so when your parents slipped up one day and told you, in fact, that you do have a grandparent who’ve you never met. But whenever you ask about them, your family refuses to answer. As a teenager, you do some digging, and you find the address of your grandparents, and you end up at their doorstep with questions. You look to them for guidance, leaving your parents behind you. But things don’t go as planned, and soon you have to be a young parent, too. You fall in love with your child at first glance and you want the best for them, but you still don’t know what life you want, so you find a job as a food critic thanks to your grandparent. But your struggles aren’t over, because when your grandparent dies, you get fired from your job, and you are left without a job.

While you adore your parent, you can’t help but want to steer clear of their criminal lifestyle. Your family easily provides you with science sets and miniature explosives that they directly told you NOT to blow up your siblings with, and you’re ready to go to space and meet some aliens. You also love to bake, because you love to eat (a little too much). Once you become a teenager, your parent ran into the cops and had to leave your home to go live somewhere else. That somewhere else… was Evergreen Harbor. It was quite not-green (unlike yourself) and you couldn’t help but want to help people fix up their beloved, once flourishing town. And as much as you love Sixam, you love your own planet, too. So you get to work.
