This episode is a slightly shorter one as I was getting over being sick at the time of recording it as well as busy with Christmas preparations. Episodes will resume at their normal length next week! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!
This is going to be a somewhat slower couple of weeks for videos on my channel due to the holidays, however I do have a very festive Sims 4 Legacy Challenge episode ready for you all!
Happy Holidays everyone!
Woo! Episode 50! I think this might actually be the furthest I’ve ever taken a Sims 4 Legacy Let’s Play, so this is a pretty awesome milestone for me. In this episode I tend to ramble a lot again, but I actually do manage to actually play the game this time. There is a birthday to celebrate and personality values to work on for H’aanit!
I have another new Legacy episode up on my Youtube channel for you all today. This one is a bit of a departure from my usual let’s plays as I am focusing less on the gameplay and talking more about IRL and my struggles with anxiety. I wanted to be open about it and let you all know what has been going on!
Hello everyone! I completely forgot to post about this last week with all of the Sim of the Month Challenge prep that I was doing. However, I just wanted to let you know that I have returned to Youtube with my Sims content and will hopefully be uploading a couple of times per week there. I have restarted my Sims 4 Legacy Challenge there and have also started up a Sims 1 Let’s Play series. I also plan on starting a Sim of the Month Challenge series there as well!
You can check out the most recent Legacy Challenge episode below.

How is it December already? Didn’t 2018 just start? Holy plumbob! Well, with the start of a new month, Pinstar and I have an all new Sim of the Month Challenge for you to participate in! For this one, we had you all vote throughout November as to whether you wanted to see a holiday themed or Get Famous themed challenge for December. The majority of you voted for a holiday themed challenge, so we are giving you just that.
We give you December’s Sim of the Month Challenge – How the Simch Stole Winterfest!
Good luck, happy simming, and Happy Winterfest!
If you play any of our challenges, chances are there are some expansion/game/stuff packs that you’ll want to have in your library. Since today is Black Friday there are a lot of awesome deals on the Sims 4 right now and I thought I would share which stores that I found were offering deals on the games.
I hope this helps you find the Sims games that you are looking for! Please note that the Amazon link is an affiliate link which means that we get a small commission from purchases made there. If you’d rather not use that, then you can use any of the other links.
Yesterday I worked on updating the Extreme Start for the Legacy Challenge so that players can use Del Sol Valley’s newest 64 x 64 lot when starting out. With the help of other Simmers I was able to come up with a new set of rules for this new start.
First off, this lot costs A LOT more than previous 64 x 64 lots so it requires a slightly different set of rules than the original Extreme Start. The changes are as follows for the normal extreme start:
However, after much discussion, it was decided that some Simmers wanted even MORE of a challenge than the usual Extreme Start, so we have come up with the new Ultra Extreme Start! The rules for that are as follows:
Because of how difficult this start will be, it will be worth TWO additional points rather than one.
All rules for these new and updated Extreme Starts can be found on the main Legacy Challenge rules page!
Special thanks to Kotabuck, StormyDayz, TigerLover78, and SimsMomChelle for the help!

I will be working on more updates to the Legacy Challenge rules and how to score it for the new pack over the next couple of weeks. Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the United States, it’s unlikely that I will be updating more until next week. But for now, you have the option to start a new Legacy on the Chateau Peak lot. Good luck!
We’ve been getting a few questions about the current in-game challenge in The Sims 4 called “The Positivity Challenge” and if it was allowed while playing our challenges. I wanted to give you all a general rundown of where this challenge will be allowed and where it won’t be. So here we go!
The Positivity Challenge is an official challenge for The Sims 4 and is running from November 13th to December 4th. For more information on how to participate you can get information in-game or by checking out the official Sims website.
Hello everyone! Over the course of the next week or two Pinstar and I will be updating some of our challenges for the new expansion pack, Get Famous. Currently we are still working on playtesting many aspects of the new expansion, so we don’t have any solid gameplay rule changes/updates yet. However, I did update the Random Trait Generators to include the two newest aspirations added in this pack, “Master Actor/Actress” and “World-Famous Celebrity”. So it is now possible to randomly get those aspirations when using the generators.
As always, if you do not own this pack, you can re-roll to get a different aspiration.
UPDATE: I just realized there was a new trait added as well (I need more caffeine today… I completely missed it at first) so that too has been added to the Random Trait Generators!
I will be keeping you all posted for any and all updates that we make to our challenges over the next several days, so stay tuned!
