Hello!

If you stumbled upon this page, then you must be a Sims fan. I am not new to the game, but new to sharing my ideas and builds with the wonderful Sims community.  I like to think outside the box when it comes to The Sims and my builds are not what some would consider normal by any means, and for that matter neither is my game play.  I knew that there had to be some more people out there like me that likes to put their Sims into situations that may not be ideal for their well being, or survival for that matter. Have you ever wanted to see and asylum game play, or perhaps a family of aliens that are out to populate the world with aliens while killing off the humans? How about a crazy idea for a lets play that starts out with a man, a dream, and ends up with a cult of loyal followers willing to sacrifice themselves to his army of cow plants in a effort to give their essence so that he may live and spread his message?  If you answered yes to any of these, then you found your girl!  I have started a YouTube channel that is VERY new, as in I don’t have my first video edited and put up on the channel yet, but sitting on my desktop being actively worked on because I keep fiddling with it trying to make it better kind of new.  I will post videos every week and it will range from builds to lets plays.  I have some GREAT ideas and would LOVE to hear some feedback from you guys.  I want this to be a safe space for people to get as weird and creative as they want.  

If you are still with me after reading all this, hop on over to my new YouTube channel Sassy Sim Muffins and grab a snack, pull up a seat and enjoy the insanity!

Sims 4 Survivor Challenge - The Hunger Games Edition

I have modified and added some additional rules to the Living Off The Land Challenge by kiwi84 to add some more gameplay aspects that I felt would work with this challenge and to make it a little more interesting and a LOT more chaotic, so I came up with the Survivor Challenge - The Hunger Games Edition.  There are so many good challenge ideas that I wanted to pull inspiration from a few of them and come up with something that hopefully everyone can do with the packs they have in their game. Feedback and other ideas are always welcome. 

BASIC RULES

You must pick one world for your Sim to live in except for a destination world.  

Your founding Sim can never move, because you are stranded on an island.  

You can not use any cheats including Debug objects.  The only cheat you can use is MOO. (move objects on)

Your founding Sim can never work or do small jobs, they are in the middle of nowhere.

You are not allowed to have any computers, tablets or TVs in your home.  If you have the lot trait Off The Grid, you may use that to add some more difficulty and to make your Sims' overall comfortability end up in the crapper.

If for some reason your sim ends up preggers, your kids can NOT go to school. Also children can not compete in the Survival Challenges, what do you take me for a monster? lol  But of course when they are young adults..let the “hunger” games begin..*Que villainous laugh*

You can change and add holidays as you like, but you MUST have one event each week in which your Sims will compete to see who gets to go to the survival Island. HOORAY!

You can have a pet starting out, if you do choose to have a pet you can NOT take them to the vet if they get sick.  We are on an island, it’s survival of the fittest here people.  If you do get a pet you can train them up to hunt for you.

Each Wednesday a new Sim must wash up on your island and be added to your family.  You can NOT control the other Sims, only your original Sim.  If for some reason your original Sim dies in a challenge, you can pick another Sim to play, but the same rules will apply you can only control your new Sim.

CREATING YOUR FOUNDER

Your founding Sim can be a male or female, but they must start out with the Freelance Botanist aspiration or the Angling Ace aspiration.  You can pick whatever traits you like, but they will be stranded on an island and their clothes may not be in the best of shape.

Once your sim completes the botanist aspiration, you can pick another one from the following choices:

Angling Ace

Outdoor Enthusiast

Lord/Lady of the knits

Soulmate (this might be a hard one since you can never leave your world lol)

FOUNDER  RULES:

You can choose any world for your Sim to live in except for a destination world.  (I love Sulani for this if you have the option, for a castaway theme) When you pick your world you must delete all the other builds on the other lots and remove all the other Sims.  You must then choose a lot in that world and your current Sim can never move.  You can travel within your world.  I used Sulani so I made a rule where my Sim had to have a high enough fitness level to “Scuba” to the other islands.  But this part is up to you.  

You start out with ZERO money.  Since you can do a tiny lot trait you can use a single 4 tile platform, I did that and made it look like a washed up wooden pallet.  Your first “shack” must be made out of that original piece and can never be larger than 32 tiles because you are stranded and won’t have access to much building materials.

You can only have objects that your sim could have “made” to use, like a cooking pit for food, a place to “store” food, if you get your logic level up to 5 you can buy a generator to use to power things and if you get your handiness level to 5 you can buy appliances. But you can’t have appliances until you unlock and purchase a generator.  If you don’t have eco living you can just buy the appliances once you have both your handiness and logic level to 5 but you can not buy fancy stuff, it has to be the old stuff that breaks all the time.

You may fish and forage for food, and you can plant what you forage, but you can not purchase any seeds, you can only plant what you find.  If you choose to do the athletics feature of this challenge, once you max your athletic skill you can then travel to other worlds but any world you travel to HAS to be empty, you are just in another part of your current world so it will be deserted as well.  Remember this is a place where you are stranded.  Other sims can be walking around, but they can be the native tribe to that island, so if you want to, you can change the clothes for all the sims to reflect that if you like.  I took out some Sims in my game and limited the amount of people that can populate.  I also changed their clothes so they looked the part for a little added realism.

SURVIVOR EVENTS:

Well that pretty much just sums up the idea behind this whole Let’s Play, your Sims are competing for their very lives.  Each Sim must compete in a weekly Survivor Event.  Each even lasts for 24 hours.  The idea is to see if your Sim is smart enough to make it out alive.  This step will require a little imagination on your part because we are going to come up with clever challenges for your Sims to endure for 24 hours.  Survivor Events can be set up on the lot itself or you can dedicate one lot in your world to the toruture … err, that is the Survival FESTIVAL.. Yeah we’ll go with that.  Festival sounds so much nicer.  You can free build or use money cheats to make your “festival” area but your Sims are not allowed to access it other than when a “festival” is taking place.  I suggest enclosing it behind a fence and locking the gate if you decide to keep it on the lot your sim is living on, or you can just put in on another lot and not worry about the mental anguish your Sims will no doubtedly go through having to stare at their tortur.. err festival grounds while not in use.  Be creative with your builds and the crazier the better!  If you want to see how I set mine up or what my thoughts were for the events, you can check out the first episode of this challenge on my YouTube channel <3   Below are some ideas I thought of, but you can have whatever challenges you like, but they must be done every Friday, and you can only start your challenges when you have two or more Sims.  Also you will need regular players, so every Wednesday you will have a new Sim wash ashore.  There are a lot of good castaway sims on the gallery, or you can create your own.  The only cheat allowed here is to add them to your family.  If they have money you can’t keep it.  Sims that lose must leave the island, but since it is in the middle of nowhere the only way to leave is by death.  Since I used Sulani we will be sacrificing them to the Volcano Gods of the island to appease them… lol don’t judge me.  Or you can sacrifice them to the Cow Plant Gods.. really it’s only limited to your own imagination on this. 

CHALLENGE ROOMS:

Sleep, Swim or Eat: In this room it should be one bench, one plate of food, and only 4 tiles in which the Sim can freely move around.  The rest has to be a pool.  You can place the pool in the middle and then put the various objects around the pool so the Sims have to swim to use the bench to sleep or get the plate of food to eat.  The food will probably go bad before your Sims eat it… but hey no one told them to swim while their food rots now did they?  I’m looking at you Bob Pancakes..

Cow Plant, It’s What’s For Dinner:  This room will obviously have a Cow Plant, if you need one I have a maxed out garden on my Origin Gallery SassySimMuffins You will not need any other objects in this room, but it must be large enough for the Cow Plant and for your Sim to interact with it.  You will have to play around with the MOO cheat (move objects on - pun intended) for this one. The idea is to leave your Sim alone with the Cow Plants and see which one if any get eaten. This challenge is best done when your Cow Plants and Sims are a little on the hungry side.  The winner is the one that didn’t eat the cake. In the event of a tie, you can make them race to a destination and the first one that gets there wins.

BEES..WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE BEES:  You probably guessed it already, but yeah this room has beehives in it.  You will need 3 boxes full of the little angry balls of death in each room, nothing more, just that.  If you want to make your bees not suffer you can give them a flower plant.  I mean we love bees right? #SaveTheMurderBalls.  The idea is that your Sim has to interact with each beehive 3 times every Sim hour.  There is no room for sleep here.  The winner will have the highest positive alignment with the bees.  Oh and you can totally send bees to attack the others if your sim wants a little edge up on the competition. This room is best built using a fence so the bees can interact with other Sims if you want so you should try and do this outside if you can.

Love to see what you guys do with this challenge, and if you do decide to try it, please tag me so I can go watch your video, or you can post your photos on my Twitter, I love to see what crazy ideas you guys come up with!  Remember to be good to each other and to love yourself, ✌️💜🧁
