HOT TEA LEGACY CHALLENGE (Graphics)
If you’re looking for a way to spice up your gameplay in The Sims 4, let me introduce you to one of my current obsessions: the Hot Tea Legacy Challenge ☕✨
This challenge created by @lxdice, brings a fresh, aesthetic, and drama-filled twist to the traditional legacy challenges you may be used to. To make the experience even more fun (and visually easier for me), I decided to create my own set of graphics for the challenge
Of course, full credit for the Hot Tea Legacy Challenge goes to @lxdice, who came up with this amazing concept. I just added my own creative touch with the graphics! If you would like to support me please feel free to subscribe to me on youtube

We decided to create our own legacy one day as a community effort and so the Boba Tea Tales Legacy was born. This legacy is meant to give you new ideas for storylines and introduce you to new gameplay that you never really thought about doing yourself.
Remember that this challenge isn’t meant to restrict you entirely. You are allowed to make some changes to the rules to fit your gameplay. It’s all about having fun!
BASE GAME VERSION
General Rules
Each generation will represent 1-3 colors. You must dress up your sim and decorate their houses in their color theme. OPTIONAL: match their hair color and eye color to the theme colors.
Complete each given skill, career, and aspiration unless the goals state otherwise.
Starting budget: 1k-20k simoleons (you decide your amount!)
Play on whatever lifespan YOU feel comfortable playing on.
No money cheats unless stated otherwise!
If you roll a topping that gives you twins or triplets, you ARE allowed to cheat for them so your sim is guaranteed to have twins or triplets.
If you decide to play this challenge, please tag me on any of my social medias (https://beacons.ai/malixa) or tag #btt or #bobateatales! I’d love to see what your sims are up to. :)
