    Introduction for Newcomers

    Every two weeks the challenge will change, We'll design a different house or interior of a room and we might even sneak a few Create-A-Sims in to break it up a little.

    Certain challenges will have a monetary limit, some will be spend as much as you like/can to impress.

    We try to make it so everyone can participate in all challenges no matter which Sims game you have and which expansion/stuff packs you have.

    If you would like to see some of our past challenges, please check out THIS link.


    Bi-Weekly Build Challenge, Week 99: My First Apartment!

    You have big dreams. Dreams of wealth, dreams of a life of luxury, and dreams of living in that deluxe apartment in the sky. However, you have only enough money to rent the cheapest, dirtiest, and grungiest apartment in San Myshuno (don't worry, you can participate without owning City Living). It's a start I guess. And the only way you can go from here, is up! Moving into your first apartment can be an overwhelming (yet wonderful) experience in your life. Furniture is not provided, but you have the luxury of personalizing your home in any way you see fit! For this challenge, you must start with a single Sim (or household) fresh out of CAS. Move this starter Sim into any apartment (or lot, if you do not have City Living or University) that they can afford on their budget of §20,000. The apartment must be purchased unfurnished. That's right, you're going to start off living in an empty apartment and its your job to fill it completely with pre-loved, mismatched furniture and decor!

    Some important info Sim's starting budgets (roommates, anyone?):

    • One Sim – §20k
    • Two Sims – §22k
    • Three Sims – §24k
    • Four Sims – §26k
    • Five Sims – §28k
    • Six Sims – §30k
    • Seven Sims – §32k
    • Eight Sims – §36k

    Key Elements:

    • Mismatching (presumably thrifted) furnishings.

    • Signs of wear on the floor, walls, cabinets, appliances, and/or windows.

    • Price & Budget is prioritized over Location, Amenities, or Size.

    Must be residential and fully functional. (TIP: Consider using cheats to unlock debug/hidden items and to place objects more freely!)

    NOTE: Challenges are open for TWO weeks!

    Roommate died of laughter and my Servo was able to seduce the Grim Reaper into bringing her back. It worked, but she immediately died of laughter again. My Servo tried to demand the Grim Reaper to bring her back, but it didn’t work this time. Three dead roommates so far.
