Baker Super Sim Family Challenge
I've been addicted to restarting my game over and over and I've been looking for a challenge I can stick with long term, and stop my restart cycle. simgirl1010 Super Sim Family has inspired me to try and stick with one family long term. So, I've taken my very first Sim from the Sims 4 years, and recreated her for a more modern look and feel, and I'm starting her Legacy style. I don't know exactly what rules I'll be following, but my main rule for myself is to just stick with it! We'll see lol. Can this chronic restarter addict be cured? Introducing Annie Baker: (I'll leave pictures in the reply since the attachments don't show up for me.) Annie was raised in a strict home where her creativity was stifled and never really appreciated. She knew she was loved and cared for, but she also knew she had to move far away to become her own person. So Annie sold everything she had, except her aisle and favorite paint brushes, packed some clothes and her trusty water bottle, and bought an enormous plot of land in the countryside. The view would be inspirational, she knew, and she hoped she'd have plenty of room to discover new hobbies, skills, and talents she had always been afraid to dream of.
The Disney Princess 10 Gen Challenge!

Storytellers can follow the original stories or you can just roll with it. Some areas of this challenge ask for gender-specific heir/heiresses, this can be easily changed out if you're playing patriarchy or matriarchy. This challenge follows the original rules of the 10 Generation Legacy - although some rules may vary. If you own a particular expansion pack, then feel free to incorporate this however you would like, ideas will be provided as well with . Generation 1: Snow White "I'm wishing for the one I love to find me today" Founders have humble beginnings, so what's better than Snow White? To start, create Snow White.

I go by the motto that it's your game, play how you want to play) ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Happy Simming!Harvest Legacy and SuperSim Updates
Pomegranate is her name, and she's known her destiny since she was just a little fruit. Her family legacy is to save seeds, perfect them, and hand them down to future generations. Not that every child in the family will be a Botanist like Pomegranate wants to be, but each child will be in charge of perfecting one plant, and of course Pomegranate's perfect plant is none other than the pomegranate. But first she has to find it. Their family name is Harvest, and their family legacy is as Seed-Savers. Pomegranate is collecting all of the harvestable from the wild that she can possibly find. She doesn't trust the quality of seed packets, so other than a few heirloom seeds (ie. seeds that came in Seasons that can't be found in the worlds), she must find all of her plants in the wild. Pomegranate is on long life span for now, and I plan on starting with Base Game, Seasons, and the Greenhouse Kit. I'll add in packs as I need them to explore and enjoy them each separately. Each child will have a name in line with the seed they are in charge of perfecting and handing down, plus they will be in charge of searching out and finding all new seeds with any additional packs that are added in their life time. Here's to a fresh start and a Legacy of Harvesters.
World Legacy Stories
I started the world legacy in 2019 because I had hard times to play legacy challenges without abandoning them after 3 or 4 generations. So I decided to bend the rules and mix them with rags to riches: What if each generation has to start over, from scratch in another world and use skills and systems implemented in the pack, in which the world comes from, to succeed in their lives? I'm now at my 18th Generation and it's still going. I have no real rules but I set goals for each generation so I could balance storyline and goal-oriented challenge. Current Family Tree: Generation 1 to 13 goals and backstories: Legacy Heirs: Update: gen 17 and 18 are added in the family tree, gen 17 storyline template added😊One Goal at a Time Rotational Legacy-update Dec 6
Dec 6 below: Part 4 Spencer-Kim-Lewis family get ready for Christmas Dec 6 Update- Packs so far: Base game and Laundry Day (I started with L&D still on, but decided to wait a little while while I'm renovating some lots). Just loaded Seasons back in. Introducing my new Legacy Rotation (started Nov. 5, 2024) Over the last month I've been experimenting with play styles, and I think I've found one that fits me really well. I love rotational gameplay. I've been waiting for Life and Death to come out to start, because I want every sim to have a personal gravestone and place within their history. I also want to really play each and every household that is premade. So, I've created one sim to start, and I've decided on Willowcreek as my starting point for this rotational legacy. I've disabled all of my packs except Laundry Stuff. I can't imagine a house without laundry. And of course, the new expansion, Life and Death. I won't be adding packs back in quickly. I really want to soak in every single one until I feel satisfied, and then add an element to my game rotation. I also want their ages to be staggered. I'm going to start off by staggering them through use of the Potion of Youth at various non-necessary times, so that birthdays will also be different for each sim. One Goal at a Time First Rotational Goal: Establish everyone in their career. If they don't have a career, choose one for them or assign them a role (mom, tutor, seed collector, etc). Order of Rotations: I'm starting out with 6 Households in Willowcreek, and then as I feel I can handle another household, I'll introduce them into the mix. My next post will have the names and pictures.

A not So-Merry Christmas Mix-up
Got my christmas story all up and ready! Still working on setting up stuff. But here's the first chapter. The hum of holiday chatter filled the air as Claire rolled her suitcase through the bustling baggage claim. Twinkling lights adorned the airport's pillars, and a massive Christmas tree stood in the center of the hall, its ornaments reflecting the glow of the season. Despite the cheerful surroundings, Claire felt like a snowflake caught in a whirlwind. Her plane had landed late, her connecting flight had been a race against time, and now she was juggling a long to-do list. She checked her phone: 7 days until Christmas. Plenty of time to make it to her parents' small-town home, bake her mom’s famous gingerbread cookies, and maybe even help with the local Christmas festival. “Just grab your bag and get out of here,” she muttered to herself, scanning the luggage carousel. Her stomach fluttered at the thought of seeing her family—especially her niece, Emma, who’d been begging her to come home for Christmas for weeks. Finally, a familiar black suitcase with a red ribbon tied around the handle appeared. Claire reached for it, but her grip faltered as her phone buzzed. She glanced at the screen, distracted, and only realized she’d grabbed the bag when it was already off the belt. “Gotcha,” she murmured, hauling it onto her trolley. She maneuvered through the crowd toward the exit, the frosty winter air outside calling her name. Just as she approached the sliding doors, someone behind her cleared their throat. “Excuse me! Hey, miss—wait!” Claire turned to find a tall man weaving his way through the crowd toward her. His cheeks were pink from exertion, and a slight dusting of snowflakes had settled on his dark curls. He wore a thick coat and carried a guitar case slung over his shoulder. “Uh, yes?” Claire asked, clutching her trolley. “I think you might have grabbed the wrong suitcase.” Her brow furrowed as she glanced down at the black suitcase. “This one? No, I don’t think so. It’s got the red ribbon on the handle. That’s mine.” The man smiled faintly, but there was a glint of determination in his hazel eyes. “Right. Except... I also have a red ribbon on my suitcase. It’s kind of my thing.” He gestured toward the identical bag he held in his hand. Claire blinked. “Oh no.” She crouched down, fumbling with the zipper, and peeked inside the bag. Instead of her cozy sweaters and Christmas gifts, there were stacks of sheet music, a Santa hat, and a box of what looked suspiciously like jingle bells. Her cheeks flushed. “Okay, maybe it’s not my bag.” The man chuckled, setting his own suitcase on the floor. “Happens to the best of us. Let’s just swap, and we’ll both be on our way.” Claire straightened up, handing the bag back. “Thanks for catching me. That could’ve been a disaster.” “It’s no problem. Traveling during the holidays can be chaos.” He extended a hand. “I’m Alex, by the way.” She hesitated a moment before taking his hand. “Claire.” “Nice to meet you, Claire.” Alex smiled warmly. “Well, have a Merry Christmas. Or... good luck with the rest of the trip, at least.” “You too.” They exchanged suitcases, and Alex walked away toward the rental car counters. Claire watched him for a moment, thinking about how kind he’d been—and how she’d almost walked off with a suitcase full of Christmas jingles. She shook her head, pulling her own bag along. But as she reached the exit, her phone buzzed again. She fished it out of her pocket, only to see a text from her sister: Don’t forget the Christmas presents, Claire! Her stomach sank. With a sinking feeling, she stopped, opened her suitcase again, and stared in horror at the contents. It was sheet music, Santa hats, and jingle bells. She’d grabbed the wrong bag again. Claire whirled around, but Alex was nowhere in sight. “Oh no,” she muttered, clutching the handle of the bag. “This really is a disaster.” Snowflakes began to fall outside, painting the airport windows in a soft shimmer. Somewhere in the distance, the airport’s speakers began to play “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas.” Claire sighed. Her holiday trip was officially off to a very Hallmark kind of start.
