The Guts Legacy Challenge

Nearly three years to the day since I first posted the Sour Legacy Challenge and Guts is finalllllly ready for you (never thought I'd see the day) 😭🤘✨

Same drill as before: the rules are lax, make this your own, take it slow or fast, use lots of mods and cheats or don't, I don't care—my only hope is that this helps you tell a creative, chaotic story in our favorite little dollhouse game.

So, enjoy! And be sure to tag me and/or hashtag #gutslegacychallenge so I can see what you get up to.

xoxo, dizzywhims

p.s. i’ll try not to make you wait 1.5yrs next time olivia rodrigo blesses us with a new album 💀

edit: I updated the aspiration for gen 1 because sticky fingers disappeared from my game and I don't think it'll be available after blast from the past ends booooo

Note for gen 1: if you don't have the sticky fingers aspiration in your game, I recommend fabulously wealthy or mansion baron!

Wcif the teeth from ur redneck sim??

Been a long while but I think it's this set from yooniesims

[dizzywhims]

will we get a "GUTS" legacy challenge?

👀

is this something people still want even though I've been ghosting all your messages for last two years

[dizzywhims]

On the Sour Challenge. Gen 1 what do we do for a house?

Whatever works with the story in your head! I went with a cheap apartment in San Myshuno.

[dizzywhims]

hiii do you have any advice for a simmer trying to come up with a legacy challenge??

Sure! Here's a couple:

Try and find a unique angle. What makes your legacy challenge stand out from the others.

Then, go on a deep dive into the mechanics of the game and the different packs you want to include, and note down anything that stands out to you and could be interesting for your unique angle.

[dizzywhims]

By chance is there is a version of your Sour Legacy Challenge rules that is text only? I’m visually impaired and my screen reader does not work well with the graphic format. The DX is a recent thing — happened during the pandemic and worsened since — so I’m new to accessibility options on my tablet/computer. I’m tech savvy, but this is a whole different world to me now and I feel bad asking, but I don’t have anyone to translate/type out things for me. Much thanks xx

Ah, I'll type it out here! Next time I make a challenge I'll keep that in mind. Have a good one!

Sour Legacy Challenge

Summary: They say trauma is cyclical and fame is fleeting. So how will one homeless, heartbroken 17-year-old with a dream affect the next 10 generations to come?

Guidelines:

Play on whichever lifespan suits your gameplay style. I'll be using Simkhira's lifespans so I can take my time with each generation. If you want a real challenge, stick to normal.

Your heirs can be whatever gender you please. Feel free to set your own heir rules, just make sure to prioritize the generational goals first.

You can sign off on each generation once you fulfill the aspiration(s), reach the top level of the career, master all the required skills, complete all the generational goals and have the next heir reach Young Adulthood (YA).

Build a graveyard where all the heirs of the legacy will rest. Keep their ghosts alive and complete the Sugar Skull collection by the end of the challenge in remembrance of them.

hey! I'm new to sims and am currently obsessed with marvel, more specifically spiderman lmao, I've been on the hunt for a cool legacy challenge that incoorperates marvel or even just spiderman/iron man but I haven't had any luck.

you're one of the only creators i've found that have really cool and obscure (?) challenges! i was wondering if you'd ever consider making a marvel/spiderman themed one? or maybe, if you had any reccs?

spiderman fans unite ✊

I can't see myself ever making a challenge like that (I'm sorry!) and I'm so far out of the sims loop that I have no recs, but you should think on that. I'm sure you could come up with something really cool!!
