  2. Select the starting world based on what packs you have available 
  3. Choose a lot to either remodel or demo to rebuild
  4. When a new sim is born you must randomize their traits and aspirations
  5. Select a skill from one or both parents to pass on to the next generation each time a new sim is born
  6. Once the heir is old enough and ready to move on select a new world as their home (repeat steps 2-5 until you reach generation 10)

  • free build your sim's dream home!

These same options will apply to any of the future worlds. Once you have finished a generation choose a new world/lot to move to and start the process again :) You can go to any world you like!  Pick your favorites, choose worlds you haven’t played much in before, or use a randomizer to pick for you.

    Been quietly following the thread of this challenge at the old forums for years. Wish I could continue, but the new forums are too confusing and the Discord link didn't work for me. It was probably a one time invitation? I guess I'll keep checking here if anything changes.
