Legacy Challenge Rules

Legacy Rules updated to include Science Babies

Hello everyone! I am slowly making my way through all of the new updates to the game and have updated the rules and succession laws to include science babies (hint: they count as naturally born as long as they can trace their lineage to the founder). The Legacy Challenge Lite rules have been updated as well.

I’ll be updating everything else for Growing Together as I get more time to play it. Stay tuned!

New Guide: The Best & Worst Expansions For The Sims 4 Legacy Challenge

This is a question that Pinstar and I get asked a lot and I thought I would make a guide listing all of the current expansion packs from worst to best for the Legacy Challenge. You can check it out here.

I am hoping to also turn this into a video, but I am not sure when that will be posted yet. Hopefully by the end of the week!

I would also love to hear how you would rank the expansions, so let me know in the comments!

Planning Legacy Guides for Sims 4 Free to Play

Hello everyone! With the announcement of The Sims 4 going free to play on October 18, I wanted to start working on some Legacy Challenge related guides to post on the website. I have a list of guides that I want to post, but I would love your input on whether I should add others!

Here is what I have so far:

  • How to start a Legacy Challenge in the Sims 4
  • How to make money early on in the Legacy Challenge
  • Finding a spouse
  • Succession laws ranked by difficulty and which to choose
  • Building Legacy Houses
  • All packs ranked for how they work with the Legacy Challenge

Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Teen Aspirations & The Trait Generators

I have made a change to how the Random Trait Generators and the Legacy Challenge Rules work for the Sims 4. Since Teens can now roll for Aspirations that also include teen-specific aspirations along with the original aspirations from previous packs, it made sense to change the wording on when to roll for aspirations.

When a child becomes a teenager, roll for the teenager aspiration (ignore what the adult aspiration says for the moment) and go with whatever is assigned. If your teenager is able to complete their aspiration before adulthood, then you can either choose to go with a randomly generated adult aspiration from the generator next (to add some more randomness to your challenge) or do what has been done in the past and choose the next one. It’s up to you!

The rules have also been reworded to reflect this.

Number of Sims Per Household Rules Update

Hi everyone! I just wanted to add a slight update to the Sims 4 Legacy Challenge rules. Since the game counts pets and human Sims into the 8 Sims per household limit, Pinstar decided that it would be fine to use the MC Command Center mod to increase that amount as you see fit so that it’s not so limited with only 8. The Gameplay Rules have been updated to reflect this.

We are still working on updates for all of the past packs but with the COVID-19 quarantine Pinstar hasn’t had a chance to look into the rules as his job has been extremely busy lately. Please be patient!

Legacy Challenge Updates – New Heir Laws

Hello everyone! Sorry that the rule updates are taking so long, but with the COVID-19 quarantine we are finding we have less time to work on the website right now since our kids are home with us. We will update when we can!

We do, however, have two new heir laws that you can use in your Legacy family. Both are centered around magic. You can check them out here.

We are also still working on other additional rules for all of the recent packs, but that will take a bit more time as there is a lot to sort through. Sorry for the delay!
