A week on The Sims Forums
Sul sul friends!
It's already July! Wishing in advance a happy Independance Day to our fellow Americans out there 🦅 I'm picturing all of you doing barbecues and fireworks outside which sounds like wonderful weekend plans!
Plenty of news to catch up on:
- On Monday we got a new Discord Nursery Build Challenge, check out all the rules if you're interested!
- On Tuesday, we got a new base game update.
- And on Thursday, more free Marketplace kits were distributed! Make sure to claim the Cozy Study Corner by HYDRASims and the Astronaut Dream Bed by AlexCroft1993!
A quiet night in Strangerville, posted here by gidget1234
Let's check out the highlights:

📱 First of all, join us all to congratulate Prso555 on their sim reaching 15 million followers on social media thanks to their networking skills! This is an incredible achievement and I’m sure both worked very hard to obtain it. They are now going for 20 million followers, so let’s keep our eyes peeled for an update when this milestone is reached!

🌴 If you have been following Love Island, you will be thrilled at Love Island: Sims 4 Edition, by Mychuno1 ! In this edition, six sims will enter a villa to look for love, but they might find obstacles and drama along the way. It’s worth it though, because the couple who makes it to the end will earn a million simoleons. Episode 1 has just been released and we are meeting our contestants: Melanie, an outgoing and adventurous sim always looking for the next thrill, Stephanie, a furry friends lover, Chasity, a creative author, chef Darwin looking for spices in his dishes and in his life, Landon with his goal on becoming a mansion baron, and finally Tyler, a self-assured sim fascinated by history. (But where is Montoya?) The cast is very promising so I can’t wait to see all the drama unfold in the villa 🤭

📚 For the fellow fans of the book saga A Court of Thorns and Roses or ACOTAR, you might want to check out the beautiful ACOTAR Build by shandy_lou97, who recreated the Feyre and Rhysands River House. The outside is simply stunning with the huge glass windows on the side tower of the house, I would absolutely dream to live here 😭💖 This mansion includes a side terrace with a pool, a lovely garden and a balcony at the top. Inside, you will find a large kitchen with a living room, study and reading lounges, with a master bedroom on the highest floor. Everything fits well into this eerie and fairy-like atmosphere. I haven’t read this book series yet, but the atmosphere displayed in this build is making me very curious to pick those up (or add them to my never ending to-read list…)!

🌈 In mood for a challenge? Here is one of the newest Legacy Challenges this week from Justamannothing , The Rainbow Legacy. This challenge is perfect if you only own the base game, or if you use very few packs. It is playable on 6 generations, and the rules for Gen 1 are already listed: the first generation’s colours will be Red & Pink and the goal is to bring vibrant colours back in your home and in your life ❤️ There are other rules for Gen 1 so it can take a bit of time to get into Gen 2, whose colour will be orange. So if you are starting this challenge, make sure to share your progress and some pics into the thread so we can see what your take is on The Rainbow Legacy!

🎨 You can also try out the series of challenge Shelly’s Premade launched by ShellyE1 as well, which consists into giving a makeover to a random premade household. This month’s household is the Cahyaputri Family from Tomarang, which consists of sisters Vanesha and Zhafira. Don’t worry if you only own the base game, as ShellyE1 is uploading the default household to the Gallery. So if you feel inspired to do a makeover for the sisters, remodel their home and create rooms based on their personalities, make sure to share what you come up with!
This concludes another week! Have a nice weekend, I will go catch up on some of the World Cup matches (go Mbappé!)
Dag dag!
