Feel free to find our socials here:
Trent* at Oasis Springs. Fishing at best OS fishing spot (all the way back) in the park. He’s eating his second burger Bob Pancake made earlier. Maybe tomorrow he’ll catch a cowplant berry or a violin.
Despite having a knack for accidentally killing my sims- I’ve only killed Sims on purpose twice and they were both vampires who were bugging my families. I was watching a Deligracy video this morning where she basically serial kills a bunch of sims and it was pretty funny and I decided to give Sim killing a try.
My favorite gameplay is usually some variation of Rags to Riches and I thought it might help me break into killing Sims on purpose. This challenge is a combination of Black Widow Challenge/ Rags to Riches. It doesn’t have to be widower- in this case main character is a dude & I play queerly pretty much always but sometimes my Sims are hey I like this person/cat whatever back off- so I do. I always use full autonomy and Sims, like fictional characters, will sometimes go a different way.
This challenge is adapted from watching Lets Plays- I looked for challenges to credit and there are too many so thanks to all of the creators and I do not attribute because I am not abiding by the regular rules.
Rules:
Sim- any adult age any gender pick your traits/aspirations however you like.
Must start on empty lot anywhere you choose except the city- you can move to the city when you’ve built a legit house (no matter how small but all the things) and have 10,000 in reserve. OR- make 5,000 dollars and move into the cheapest needs TLC apartment you can find.
Use money cheat to set your money to zero.
Fish, collect, paint etc. to raise money. Can sell in inventory- you are gonna be busy.
NO Yard Sales. (Way too easy money-wise)
You can use public bathrooms. No gym showers. Hint: washing hands in sinks helps with hygiene.
You can use grills after you have 1,000 simoleans if you have to. Better to eat random food you can find- cooked or not. Don’t take stuff from people’s houses UNLESS you are a klepto with the skill to swipe things.
Make friends/be social unless you are a loner Sim (I tend to hermit in IRL & the Sims)
Set lifespan to long (my compromise- short lifespan stresses me out)
NO NO NO money cheats except to lose money/settle on children/zero out.
No free real estate cheats except you can pick any empty lot to be your first as long as it’s not in the city.
Cheats if you want em:
reset
needs- if three or more are red & you can’t do anything in game to fix you can cheat needs but you must keep track. Aim for no more than five times in total. (Can you tell I am a big ole cheater)
Teleport-
Don’t overuse- for example- Sim is exhausted and has no home and needs to fish/collect far away from a bench to sleep on...
Rewards in game:
Beguile is helpful but I consider it a cheat in challenges like this but I’m all for it.
Marrying-
Must *Marry & Cheat/Kill 10 times. Must keep/connect with ghosts if possible. Can live in houses and sell as much as you want or keep a house whatever. Once you get married the first time the primary way (80 percent) of money is through marriage.
Oh yeah the dinner party thing- have a party. But you decide if you want to rank it or not. Life is stressful enough friends.
Pick a thing and get good at it.
Suggested: Charisma- max- helps with challenge. Mischief helps too.
Cooking- all the kinds in case you want to bring a ghost back to life. (why not?)
Gardening- same.
Pick a creative thing to do and do it doesn’t matter what.
If you fall in love or don’t want to kill anymore you can quit the killing but MUST zero out your money again BEFORE you marry the one true love and build or buy the house you will live in yourself. Zero out their funds. If you are already married you must leave your spouse/start over and then you can re-marry.
*Marriage is weird in our world where not everyone gets to or sometimes people have to and this is supposed to be fun so if you want to have a serious move in relationship and figure out how to make that work go ahead who cares?
Lastly- if you are having fun and the thought of it ending makes you really sad- just turn aging off. It should be fun first. Especially in 2018. Whatever it takes.
Frankie was a hardworking line cook who was tired of Top Chef wannabe’s and suck ups and too little money and sore muscles and burns. They dreamed of a different not so greasy life- an impossible life someplace else.
One night they met up with a witch on the wrong day who sent her escargot back and had a loud fight with her husband and Frankie 86′d them. Late that night on their way home the witch showed up seething and green.
You don’t know how to cook anything but garbage food. You don’t know how to treat people with respect. The ZuZu City sky lit up for a second and then Frankie felt a jolt and a feeling of dread.
The witch smiled & coughed sour garlic snail breath in Frankie’s face.
“From now on you will only get money for your food and you have to be nice to everyone you meet. Make friends.” And for your garbage food you will find it impossible not to look in every garbage can you see- you won’t be able to pass a dumpster again without looking. She cackled and belched.
I’ll see you again Frankie. Best be nicer next time.
Do you like the rainbow? Do you like the idea of playing with berry Sims but hate berry Sims? Do you want to mess around with aspects of the game you’ve never used before? Boy, do I have the challenge for you!
Welcome to the Not So Berry Legacy Challenge, a ten generation legacy with a focus on bright colors and new experiences.
Basic Rules:
Each heir must represent the color of the generation (i.e. hair, makeup, clothing), but brightly colored skin is not necessary (these aren’t actually berry Sims, that’s the joke). Of course, this is optional but a big portion of the fun.
The colors of the spouses don’t matter as they aren’t part of the challenge. Unless otherwise stated you can do whatever you please with them.
Money cheats can be used, but not excessively. Suggestion: use freerealestate for your first home, but no cheats afterward.
You may live wherever you please unless something is specified in the rules of a generation.
Every generation is supposed to complete both the career and aspiration of the heir unless explicitly stated otherwise.
Keep the lifespan on normal.
If you play this challenge and want to share it with us, go ahead and post with #notsoberry so we can see!
My good friend @alwaysimming and I kind of created this challenge on accident, but I think it turned out pretty great. We wanted to make something that forced us to play with parts of the game we’ve never explored before. Hopefully you’ll have fun too. You can follow our gameplay on @mintiphresh and @lea-fey (pronounced “minty fresh” and “leafy”)!
