We have a new scoresheet to share with you all today courtesy of a Legacy Challenge regular, Drew. You can download a copy of it from here, as well as on our Scoresheet page.
Take a moment to check it out! We now have 4 different scoresheets available for you to use in your Legacy families. Choose the one that suits your needs best!
We will also have a FAQ sheet up within the next day or so, so stay tuned for that!

With the point charts finally finalized, the only thing left to tackle was to rule on ghosts.
See our updated and revamped scoring page for more details.
Pinstar and I have completely overhauled the Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Rules Scoring section! It is now laid out in an easier to read bulletpoint format so that you can see exactly how the points are laid out. A few changes were also made to some of the categories after finding issues with them and listening to feedback.
Pinstar has also finalized the point distribution for all categories! Now that that is done, expect an official scoresheet soon!
Parker Masque might be gone, but he’s not forgotten.
Hello everyone, below you will find the following changes to the Legacy Challenge Rules:
A new concept is being introduced. The first spouse brought into the house each generation (once that generation’s heir reaches young adulthood) is known as the “Primary Spouse” The distinction of “Primary Spouse” does NOT mean the spouse HAS to be the sim who helps bring about the next generation. The “Primary Spouse” distinction is, however, important for two scoring categories.
In the “Love” category, determining which spouse’s traits to consider for collecting unique traits only looks at “Primary Spouses” even if more spouses are moved in later in a generation and/or are used to produce the next generation. Any spouses moved in AFTER the primary spouse are ignored for the purposes of the love category.
When using the trait calculator to determine a new child’s traits, the ‘secondary parent’ section is whoever was involved in the child’s birth or adoption. Weather they are a Primary or secondary spouse doesn’t matter always use that child’s actual parent when using the trait calculator (whether it be a primary spouse, secondary spouse, non-spouse etc)
A rule change for the Creative category has also been implemented. In order to earn points in the creative category, only the Founder/Heir and their primary spouse have to be memorialized in each generation to earn that generation’s point. There is no rule against memorializing spares and secondary spouses, but they are optional for the purpose of the creative point.
A Sim may be memorialized at any time, even after their death. However the person doing the memorial work must have known the Sim being memorialized in life at some point (They don’t have to have been friends with them, just have met them at least once)
Hey everyone! Our super awesome tech guru did a major update to our trait generator last night and hopefully it is working as intended now.
First off, adult aspirations are now generated for teens instead of adults.
Secondly, the bug that was preventing parents from having certain traits has been fixed.
Finally, we added a SECOND generator to the site, this one will give you all traits and aspirations at once (like the generator used to do). Several people had requested it back, so, ask and you shall receive. Both generators can be found on the menu above. The new generator is called “Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Random Trait Generator (All traits at once).”
Here are the links to both generators:
Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Random Trait Generator (1 trait/aspiration at a time)
Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Random Trait Generator (All Traits at Once)
Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know of a few updates.
Running out of Townies? You can now use the gallery! Look up #LegacyLoves and grab some new potential spouse material.
The following changes are being made to the core Legacy Challenge Rules. as with this and all other Legacy Challenge rule updates, there is no need to restart your Legacy Family. Simply begin playing your families with the new rules going forward.
The Legacy Challenge is meant to start you off in a much more difficult position than a ‘normal’ game’s start might dictate. And with the rule change to where new spouses no longer bring in any money, the early game is about to become more difficult.
To help get your familes off to a strong start, here are my top 10 tips for getting started with your Legacy Challenge.
The Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Random Trait Generator has been updated today. The updates are as follows:
The traits of the two parents are no longer locked with child/teen/adult trait levels, meaning that you can now freely populate traits in all three slots. For some of you who had founders with no child-friendly traits, you should now be able to correctly plug your founder into the calculator.
Next update: Adding a “Generate only one life stage” mode to the calculator, letting you only generate a child trait/aspiration, a teen trait/ adult aspiration or the third adult trait one at a time so you don’t spoil what all the traits are going to be when you do your initial generation, or worry about forgetting with the later traits were.
Having unearthed some more information about how the family management tool works, detailed in this video. I made a small change to the rules that won’t negatively impact anyone’s Legacy Challenge. However, a more drastic change possibility has presented itself, but I’d like to see what everyone thinks before I make any bigger rule changes. Continue reading →
