Those of you that follow me on Youtube and Twitter probably know by now that my Sims 4 Legacy Let’s Play series on Youtube has ended in failure. My heir, Elrond Fantasia, died of embarrassment after his girlfriend rejected his marriage proposal and I had no eligible spare to take his place. As bummed as I am about this new turn of events, I am also realizing that I have learned a lot from my mistakes in this Legacy.
The Europa Legacy – Chapter 2 – The Sylvan Glade
Hello everyone! Welcome to chapter 2 of the Europa Legacy. If you haven’t read chapter 1 yet, you can find it here.
It took Geneva a couple of tries, but she finally traversed the inside of the mysterious tree and made it to the Sylvan Glade. How freaking gorgeous is this place?! I spent a good 30 minutes in here taking as many screenshots as I could. Enjoy a few of the shots that I took before we continue with this chapter:

Sims 4 Legacy Challenge FAQ!
Hi everyone! We’ve added a much needed FAQ page to the Sims 4 Legacy Challenge rules. You can find it on the drop down menu above located under “Sims 4 Legacy Challenge Rules”, or you can also view it here.
We compiled a list of questions that we feel were asked the most often, but it’s possible we missed a few important ones. If you have one that you’d like us to add to the page, please let us know here or in the comments section of the FAQ page.
Hopefully this will help alleviate some of the confusion surrounding the challenge!
New Scoresheet!
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!
The Europa Legacy – Chapter 1 – Meet Geneva
Hello everyone! If you follow my Let’s Plays on Youtube, then you may remember me saying that I wasn’t planning on doing a written Legacy for the Sims 4. Well, I’ve changed my mind (surprise, surprise). The thing is, I got my start in playing Legacy families back in Sims 2 as a story writer for them and I miss it. So, I decided to get back to my roots and start up a written Legacy to go along with the Fantasia Legacy Let’s Play, Animator Legacy Livestream, Saifai Legacy Let’s Play (Sims 3), and Retro Legacy (Sims 2). Holy cow that’s a lot of Legacies. And before you ask, yes, I am indeed insane! 🙂
Now then, let me introduce you to the founder of my newest Legacy:
This is Geneva Europa. If you can’t tell by her name, I will be doing a European city naming theme for this Legacy (similar to my original Sims 2 written Legacy that I started on our old Legacy Challenge website). Say hi to everyone, Geneva!
Geneva: Huh? Who? What? Sorry was browsing the web. What did you say?
*sigh* We’re off to a good start.
The Legacy Challenge Rules update 1.00
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.
Major Rule updates:
- You may use the death flower to guarantee success when pleading with the reaper to save a dying Sim.
- You may NOT use ambrosia to resurrect a dead Sim. (You may cook it and have living sims eat it if you wish)
- You may invite ghost Sims back into your family. However, they no longer earn your Legacy family any Legacy Challenge points. They may not purchase potions of youth and any completed skills, aspirations, or other Legacy Challenge scoring methods do not count for them. They may not take a job. They cannot memorialize other Sims. If they were a member of the Legacy Challenge family.
- Ghost Sims can still be memorialized but only by Sims that knew them in life.
- An invited ghost who is no longer welcome may be moved out just like unwanted family members.
