jqpi3stc4i64 I've played this kind of challenge a few times with Island Living in a few different ways. I've shipwrecked a few Sims in Mua Pel'am with no funds as part of the Making Money scenario and they've fished, beachcombed and harvested for food and items to sell and plant. Eventually they either leave the island and buy a home, travel around other worlds living out of a tent for a while or build a home in Sulani and stay there.
With my last one I missed the element that Castaway had where you could build a house by collecting resources. So I combined it with Eco Lifestyle's content and had her fabricating her own furniture. I decided she'd only use what she found or made to furnish the home. So, the bathroom/kitchen was salvaged from dumpsters (I had to buy kitchen units because I couldn't find matching ones). She has the restored kitchen items from the Restoration Workshop kit. She made all her own flower arrangements (Seasons), jewellery (Crystal Creations), candles (EL) and pottery (B&H) and paintings. She used the knitting skill (Nifty Knitting) too to make some rugs and decor. I gave her the Freegan Trait. Even her flowers for her arrangements and her fruit and vegetables in her garden were all from things she found instead of buying seed packets. She even made the planters herself. Her dog was a rescued stray too. So she started out with a deserted island lot in Sulani but ended up with a homemade home. I made it all in wood panelling and flooring too, to remind me of the wooden homes they built in Castaway. 🌴
