THE LOST CITY OF ATLANTISGuest Judge: @carolynrosser Origin ID: @24LunaInterior 10/10comments:My gosh, this build is just stunning. Absolutely gorgeous. I kept making notes about details that I loved: OMG, the bed surrounded by water! The use of the rectangular pool decals to create a complex floor pattern! The pops of bright color against all the white! The way you made that weird “Mini Glowing Pylon” light look like a glowing gem! Whatever strange and unnatural thing you did to that statue (the bottom picture in your Imgur gallery) look like a mermaid! Really, I just wish I could crawl through my screen and live there.Exterior 10/10comments:I’m so impressed with how intricate and beautiful this all is, how densely detailed. It really does look like a city, which is hard to achieve on a single lot. I love the fountains and the statuary, the courtyards and ruins, the ponds and underground chambers, the Escher-esque complex of staircases. The landscaping is fabulous, and all of the turrets and towers of different heights work together beautifully. I can’t even imagine how long this must have taken you to build!Creativity 10/10comments:I love the humor of the backstory, as well as your comment on the gallery entry about not losing the city again. And the entire city is beautifully imagined. Love, love, love.TOTAL: 30AWARDED: BEST DESTINATION: CITY OF DREAMShttps://i.imgur.com/AKBCjk3.jpg*****************************************************************WATER GODDESS TEMPLEOrigin ID: @Haids1987Interior 10/10comments:I think this is a really beautiful and impressive build, especially given that it’s your first challenge build! The worship hall is lovely—I love what you did with the tile and the candles. The simplicity of the humble herbalist’s and woodworker’s huts contrasts really nicely with the splendor of the temple and the worship spaces. I like the children’s area and the touches of wellness therapy—the sauna and the yoga area—add an extra layer to the way the Atlanteans worship the goddess. The gemstones, candles and wall hangings all work really well. The “bubble blower” terrace reminds me of various stories I’ve heard about ancient temples that made use of hallucinogens and other psychedelic substances/processes. :)Exterior 10/10comments:I really like the way you’ve incorporated water into the build, creating essentially a city surrounded by water. The two levels of balconies are really cool. The landscaping is really pretty, and I like that there are some garden boxes—it adds to the idea that a couple of caretakers (the herbalist and the woodworker) live on the land and care for the grounds and the temple. And the entryway with the fountains and the statue and the rose-petal filled pool is gorgeous!Creativity 10/10comments:Great backstory! I like that you’ve built art and music into the temple grounds, as well as a library to emphasize the importance of learning. I love all the different ways you’ve created for the Sims to worship their goddess!TOTAL: 30AWARDED: OH MY GODDESS: BEST ORIGINAL THEOLOGYhttps://i.imgur.com/HtuZ4fe.jpg*****************************************************************ATLANTEAN LIGHTHOUSEOrigin ID: @AinsleyfrInterior 10/10comments: This is absolutely gorgeous! I love the idea of a lighthouse, and the way you’ve built it as its own little island. The interiors are beautiful—lovely use of tiles and mosaics and flowing draperies. I love the hidden gem cavern underground and the beautiful bathroom filled with rose petals. The sun-temple room is really col. And I’m certain that those are exactly the kind of toilets they used in Atlantis.Exterior 10/10comments:The facade is just stunning! I love the architectural details you’ve chosen—the “modern artiste windows” work really well with the round lights to create a beautiful and timeless style (as well as being functional to make the building emit light). I like the ship at the loading dock, and the ruins on the edges of the property. I’m very impressed with the second-story walkways that lead from building to building. The gazebos and the patio garden are really pretty, and I love the “natural hot springs”. All in all, just an extraordinary build. (And your comments on the Imgur gallery are hilarious!)Creativity 10/10comments:Great backstory! The solar-laser weapon is a great idea—really cool way to create technology that works for the time period. I’m just enchanted with the whole thing.TOTAL: 30AWARDED: BEST PORT IN A STORMhttps://i.imgur.com/jui8LcM.jpg*****************************************************************ATLANTIS DREAMSOrigin ID: @LeashaLovesInterior 10/10comments:This is gorgeous, and it's especially impressive, given the space constraints you were under! The interior decor is spare, but it contains everything a single sim would need, and it’s totally believable as a single home from the lost city. And you get many bonus ways for the creative way you disguised the toilet!Exterior 10/10comments:I like that you've built this as a ruin (mostly intact, but crumbling), and and that you found a way to make it look like it’s underwater, without actually being underwater. The use of space plants is ingenious—they give off such a lovely glow, and they add an air of mystery to the story. (What exactly was going on in Atlantis? What did they know that we don’t?) There are so many great details in the build—the candles in the cupolas, the use of those flaming gold trophies, the lovely entryway arch with the giant horses/donkeys. Lovely!Creativity 10/10comments:I love that you built it in the abandoned mine! (I didn’t even know it was possible to build there.) And the idea that the water is starting to subside, revealing the buildings that have been hidden underwater is really awesome. Just a really cool idea and a really cool build, overall!TOTAL: 30AWARDED: BEST SECRET HIDEAWAYhttps://i.imgur.com/YT12jtO.jpg*****************************************************************A ROOM FOR XENA, PRINCESS OF ATLANTISby ssssimyalaterInterior 8/10comments:I think this is such a fun story and build! I really like the way you’ve set up the building, with Xena’s bedroom hidden away underneath ground-level. The decor is a little bit plain and bare, but I guess that’s how Xena’s father wants it to be! She has everything she needs to survive, but nothing extra. Still, if he loves her so much, I wonder if he might have taken a little bit more care with her surroundings. I wondered what she’s supposed to do all day—there’s no way for her to make art or music, no books for her to read. Nothing for her to do but get to know those burly bodyguards…Exterior 9/10comments:The exterior of the building is lovely! I like the classical architecture, the white chess lights, the fountain and the statues and the columns. I have the same question as I did about the interior decor: couldn’t Xena’s father add a little more style to her home? There’s not much landscaping (which you mention in your notes)—maybe she can talk her dad into building her a garden with a high wall around it. Creativity 10/10comments:I love the idea of an underground bed-chamber for a princess in seclusion! Her house/compound is beautiful and luxurious, but it’s also a prison. I laughed at your comment about her handsome guards—maybe her dad hasn’t really thought this one through. I like to imagine that maybe she and the burly guards are planning a coup, and that soon it will be the king who finds himself in captivity…TOTAL: 27AWARDED: BEST NOT-QUITE-A-WARRIOR PRINCESShttps://i.imgur.com/2CWjuim.jp@24Lunaa *****************************************************************ATLANTIS STREETOrigin ID: @Netxpre2Interior 9/10comments:This is a lovely build, and very evocative of an ancient city! I love the simplicity of the individual houses—they don’t need much, just the fulfillment of their basic needs, and there’s a sense that a lot of their daily activities take place in the communal spaces. I took off a point for the emptiness of the large building—I understand your explanation, but I would have loved to see a little more decor, to get a taste of how the Atlantean residents might have used the space.Exterior 10/10comments:I love the canals and the little houses; it all works together to look like a little neighborhood. The main building reminds me of depictions of the biblical Tower of Babel. The stone looks great in both the exteriors and interiors. The outer walls of the lot and the main entryway are very pretty, and the landscaping looks really nice. I like the use of knights throughout the lot—I wasn’t sure whether they were supposed to be real people standing watch or just for decoration, but either way, they lend a nice ancient feel to the little city.Creativity 9/10comments: A little more backstory might have been nice: what kind of lives do the citizens live here? How do they make their living and entertain themselves? But it’s a lovely neighborhood, and you’ve managed to create a real sense of community!TOTAL: 28AWARDED: BEST ANCIENT NEIGHBORHOODhttps://i.imgur.com/7bOQI6J.jpg******************************************** @Carolynrosser AWARDED: Bestest friendly judge and unnoficial entryhttps://i.imgur.com/ay6JFJf.jpg

Thanks for the lovely review and reward banners and taking the time to check out all our builds in detail!! Yay!!!

Awww, thank you so much, guise! :blush: I'm flattered! To be recognized in a group of such amazing builders is such a compliment! <3Dude, I am 100% in accordance with @24Luna's win for Best Destination. Holy plumbbobs! Luna, I pored over your lot for a lot longer than I care to admit, it is so INCREDIBLE! :lol: I loved the way that you used the cracking decal on the temples and buildings, it really added to the effect of an ancient city. And all those staircases and outdoor gardens--yikes, must have taken forever! I am in awe of this build!@fabtiffsim Is it possible to link to the lot in the results page? I know that we have links in the submission form, but perhaps linking the name of the lot in this thread would be helpful as well? Just a suggestion. ;)I can't wait to participate in the next challenge! Building to a theme is just fun, whether you win or not. Looking forward to the next one!!

Prehistory Challenge #: 17 Hippiatroi@folalaThe Hound HealerInterior - 10/10The view from the windows is super nice! I love that you can see the grass and the ocean. And I think you really did the best you could with the vet equipment, there really is no way around it, is there? It fits though, you've made it (more than) work, especially the little spiderwebs and wall decorations. It looks like an old barn! Just a dirty ol' barn!!! Just the way I like 'em!Exterior - 10/10The cutest little garden! And I loved the twig fence. The whole thing looks really medieval! @Rosemow is right, the pig's are super cute! It's really simple, but it would be, you know? I keep thinking to myself that I have to make some big elaborate build for my medieval stuff, but truth be told it would just be a shack with a straw roof wouldn't it?! I think this is super cute! My sims will bring their medieval (but still spoiled-rotten) pets to your medieval vet!Creativity 9.5/10I guess you don't technically tell me a story, but I enjoyed what you wrote about how you came up with the build! And you're the only person brave enough to try! So you still da best!

CHALLENGE NO. 18 Davey Jone's LockerOrigin ID: @carolynrosserGallery Link: Davey Jone's TavernInterior - 10/10I was going to give you a mark of 200/10 because that ship downstairs is way too much fun. Your description nailed it, upstairs is just a regular ol' tavern for thirsty sailors but downstairs is where all the insanity happens! I just loved the little jail cell haha more than I should, but I kinda like to see Sims tortured #messedup. That is also why I enjoyed the knives on the wall so much hahaha!! But the sunken ship with all the skeletons is the real genius of this build, and it just looks fantastic! Exterior - 10/10She's purrrrdy simple on the outside! I think that's the style of the time though. And I know that there is an "outdoorsy" part on the inside, where you spent all your time, and it's the most important part of this build, so I didn't feel the need to dock any marks. But doesn't leave a whole lot to comment on! Very nice toilet plants! ;) Also I'm loving the new world! It looks great doesn't it?! The docks really suited your build!Creativity 10/10Again, I'd love to give you 200/10 because I like the story you came up with so much! You made it a tavern! Cheapskate sailors DIE in the basement in a crazy ol' ghost ship, or a vampire tortures them... it's nutty. Wonderful job! TOTAL: 30/30AWARDED: AN EXTRA 200 POINTShttps://i.imgur.com/GuSxMKr.pngOrigin ID: @Netxpre2 @JosieanglinGallery link: Welcome home Davey JonesInterior 10/10The inside is just a scary as heck graveyard, which is super simple, but I think it's the point of your build, so I wasn't knockin' ya any points for that. It looks insanenly creepy! Like, you're just going there to die, you don't need a toilet! Great work!Exterior 10/10Aw yah, the first gallery pic is SO CREEPY! Great job setting a spooky mood right off the bat! The walkway with the lanterns made me pee a little, I didn't want to die a sailors death. But I'd super enjoy watching some Sims die that way!! #messedup I really enjoyed that it's a cave, it's a weird shipwreck in the middle of surburbia when you can see the next door neighbor house haha! Even more #messedup and that makes me like it more haha! Creativity 10/10I do usually enjoy reading more of a backstory, but you went straight for the actual lore of Davey Jone's and I appreciate that too! Your build was so spot on with that lore that you didn't need a story! I super enjoyed looking at your build! TOTAL: 30/30AWARDED: RIP SAILORShttps://i.imgur.com/IQdPZg3.pngOrigin ID: @haids1987Gallery link: The Devil's EmbraceExterior 10/10The first pic you posted on the forum was perfect! The lighting was almost foggy, and it was just so dang creepy! I enjoyed how you divided the little graveyard, there were little ghosty neighborhoods with their own little fences. Each one gets their own subway and starbucks if it's anything like the city I live in ;) The lot you picked is perfect. You get a sense that it's old, it's isolated from where the village is, and it's happening in medieval times or somthing! Great job!Interior 10/10The creepy lab is cool! What happens down there, do they make zombies? Do they make vampires?! Oh dang it's good to read and see! It really gets the creative juices flowing and that's the whole point ain't it?! Great work!Creativity 10/10I hope when I die I get to be in the female-only graveyard like the pirates! No stinkin' boys near my final resting place! The little tomb for the married couple was ... sweet? Creepy and sweet. If I have to rip near a stinky boy I hope it's my stinky man-friend and we have a creepy/romantic tomb like this. I'm going to show him this build when he gets home from work! I'm so #messedupI love that you had a little story for each of the sections of the graveyard, that's an extra tasty nugget that I super appreciated!

Exterior 10/10
Obviously, that big ol' colliseum kicks butt. What a fun addition to your build! I also really liked the arches you made for the entrance. What a fun idea and it has the perfect look for this era! Lots of big, wide open arches, and the right colors. Some very nice greenery (inside the build and outside!) It looks peaceful and shady. My sims wouldn't get too hot in the sun haha
Interior 10/10
The rooms all look very ancient, and are decorated perfectly for the era of the challenge. Seeing into the Coliseum was very cool! I loved the different floors, it was very wide open and you can see all the way down, which was really impressive! I'd love to sit in the nice chairs in my toga and watch a poor sim die! And I loved your sneaky toilet trick, I'm going to steal that from you FOR SURE! It looks great!
Creativity 9/10
Yah sick those big animals on the sucky performers!! Torturing sims is one of my fav past-times.
I enjoyed your write up, it was very informative, and I could have a very clear picture in my head without even seeing the pictures. I know exactly what would happen here, and all the different paths a story could take. Very nice! Don't be afraid to make me up a little story with some sims to look at! But you gave me so much information that I could only steal one point away from you! You were competing against a competitor that wrote a whole story about their build in the form of a board game, so I did have to take the one away from you. But I did so with a heavy heart!
Thanks for joining us! I thoroughly enjoyed looking through your build!!

Skill level: Purdy good!
Interior 10/10
Everything is very decadent. It's super fancy! And that makes sense if it's a home for a senator. The roman baths are soooo beautiful. I love how steamy it looks. And I liked that the walls were covered in flowers and vines even though they are kind of inside? haha It's almost a room I guess.
I'll be "inhaling" that incense with the statue in the temple room! Whatever it is, it's probably some good stuff! It makes looking at your hidden stove/fridge even more entertaining! Great job on that cartoon stove, it's really wonderful!! And I really liked what you did with the flooring. It looks very grand!
Exterior 10/10
It's a very grand entrance! I love what you did with the roof, I'm not even sure how you decorated that, but I love me a good mystery. This build probably has some of the best "curb appeal" haha it's a real-estate agent's dream haha
The only thing I was worried about were the roosters ;)

Your board game story is outrageously funny. All the creativity points. All of them. Here you go, it's raining creativity points down on you! Makin' it rain!!

Beautiful front entrance! You have some very spectacular landscaping going on - lots of colors, which I'm always a sucker for. I'm also a pretty big sucker for animals, and I LOVED your little chicken/rabbit area! The cute little ramp slayed me.
Interior 10/10
The choice to use tiles for the bedrooms and living rooms was a good one! It looks really nice. The arches, pillars, and big windows give it a very luxurius feel. The cool breeze could flow in and ruffle my silky greek hair and I love it. All of the different baths and pools are beautiful!
Creativity 10/10
A full-blown history lesson?! I love it! Great work, it must have taken a lot of research! You knew so much about every single room... I really enjoyed the ice cellar! The room was very cool, and so was the story behind it. You did so much work for this portion of the build, and it was super fun to read!
Map 2/5
I saw that you included a topview of the main floor, but it wasn't labeled like everyone else's. Sooooo I didn't feel like I could give you full points for the map considering everyone else gave me a full map. But it's a lovely build!

Back story: Hidden far away from mortal eyes lies this sanctuary for water nymphs. Only few have found the beauty that lies within this sanctuary, and none ever leave for it is so mesmerizing and enchanting that one becomes obsessed with the Naiad(word for lake/spring nymph)
Link to Pics
Exterior 10/10
You are correct about that waterfall. It looks great! (I didn't download the lot and see it in-game but I liked the way it looked in the pics!) It's peaceful and mysterious. You'll be lulled into walking into the sanctuary and then you'll disappear forever! Your flower-statue fountains are so creative! What a simple, yet stylish idea. Just like a good haircut.
Interior 10/10
I'm going to consider swimming inside the pools to be the interior haha for lack of any better idea.
Actually, I think you're not supposed to be able to swim in the pools so now my "joke" looks even lamer.
Creativity 10/10
Is that a real name for river nymph or did you create it? It's wonderful either way. I really enjoyed the word! I really liked the feeling that this build evokes. In the right light it's almost scary or spooky. But in another light it's misty and green and beautiful. I think it's magic powers are working on me, I'm feeling very lulled in...

@fabtiffsim ah! I totally forgot about the map!! All the other build challenges I do don’t require maps so I toooooootallly forgot

And yea Naiad is the word for river/spring nymph I even looked it up to be sure. Originally I was going to use Naias which is for like...a lake nymph I believe? Something else also water related haha I couldn’t believe how many variations of just water nymphs there are!
