Spin 4 Life Challenge

Spin 4 Life Challenge
Life isn’t fair, it’s random. Especially in The Sims.

How It Works

  • Every category the game can’t randomize is decided by the wheel.
  • Hit randomize (or spin) three times per category and take the third result.
  • Once your household is set, play them as they are. No re-spins unless the result is literally impossible (example: Super Parent aspiration but no children).

Categories to Spin

  • Name
  • Starting Aspiration
  • Traits
  • Likes & Dislikes
  • Career
  • Hobbies (2)
  • Collection
  • Build Style
  • Décor Style
  • World to live in
  • Marry or Not
  • Children (can be natural born, science baby, or adoption)

CAS Setup

  • Randomize clothing, hair, skin tone, head shape, cheeks, jaw, eyebrows, eyes, chin, ears, mouth, nose, and nails.
  • You may change swatches for clothing.
  • Makeup and accessories are your choice.

Gameplay Rules

  • Maximum of 3 skills linked to aspiration, career, or hobbies.
  • Sims must max their chosen career.
  • The challenge ends when all goals are met.
    • Children must complete 1 aspiration and max 3 skills.
    • Infants must reach 2 milestones in each category.
    • Toddlers must reach level 3 in all skills.

(If you roll something contradictory, you may reroll that category. Example: Super Parent with 0 children.)

Variations

  • Play rotationally by randomizing two or more households.
  • Add your own categories (lot challenges, pets, etc.).
  • Create an optional “Chaos Events” wheel to spin once per in-game week.

Why Play?
The idea is to play with situations you wouldn’t normally choose and see where the spins take your Sims’ stories.

About the Wheels
I used a custom Spin the Wheel picker online. If links are allowed, I’ll share them directly. If not, you can use the lists above to make your own wheels in any randomizer tool.
