Default Apocalypse Challenge
I loved the Sims 3 various apocalypse challenges, but most of them are far too complex to work in Sims 4. So I wrote my own! I've never written a challenge before, so any constructive criticism is welcome. I have play-tested this three times and won twice. So it should be good for someone new to challenges.







Sims 4 Apocalypse Challenge


Story: A mutated flu virus has wiped out over 90% of the worlds population. There

are no more grocery stores, hospitals, cops, banks...ect. No infrastructure!

You came to Willow Creek (or Oasis Springs) with the flood of refugees fleeing the

plague ridden cities. You were able to find a nice area to settle down and try to

survive in.

Goal: (in any order you choose)
1.) Meet and move in your perfect mate.
2.) Build a real home.
3.) See your grandchild age up to a happy, healthy teen or young adult.



Set up: Start with any lot you like. Lot should have a trash can. If you own you

have one available you may start with a small and a campfire. Lot must be

completely surrounded by a fence with a single gate.

Use the money cheat to bring your money down to 15. Cheat: Cntrl+Shift+C to bring

up the window. Then type: Money 15

Rules:
General rules:
You may only 'play' the sim you made in CAS and ONE of their children. All other sims

do as they please. (exceptions would be to cancel school or phone actions)

No school for children or teens.

All babies must be had at home.

No jobs!

No services may be hired.

No build/buy cc.

No cheats other the one required.




First generation:

You may only ever leave your home lot only three times in your entire life. Must stay

in the same neighborhood. (No loading screens!)

Bills must still be paid and you still have to eat! So use your outside visits wisely.

Whenever you encounter (talk to) another sim there is a 1 in 10 chance that they are

infected. Use a 10 sided dice (http://roll-dice-online.com/) or random.org to generate

a random 1-10 number. If you roll a 1 the sim you met was infected and passed the

plague to you. If you catch the disease, you die! (kill your sim however you want!)

The challenge has failed if 1st generation sim dies before 2nd gen sim is born, even if

you've moved a spouse onto the lot.

Build your home!

Nothing that requires electricity may be bought until the third generation is a teen or

older. So grills are ok, but tvs are not. If something LOOKS like it doesn't require

electricity, that's good enough. Like the candles for lighting or the cast-iron wood

burning stove for an oven ect...

UhOh...no fire alarms!

Only ONE thing that requires running water. So a toilet OR a tub...not both. A

second plumbing object may be bought as soon as your sims first child is born.

Pick one child to be the one you control.

For every 'extra child' you may add 100$ via the money cheat.

For the first fruit tree on your home lot that you harvest you may add 100$.

Second generation:
You may leave the home lot as often as you like, but may only leave neighborhood

TWICE in your entire life. May visit hidden lot once.

Any spouse must be moved onto the home lot.

Whenever you encounter (talk to) another sim there is a 1 in 20 chance that they are

infected. Use a 20 sided dice (http://roll-dice-online.com/) or random.org to generate

a random 1-20 number. If you roll a 1 the sim you met was infected and passed the

plague to you. If you catch the disease, you die! (kill your sim however you want!)

Again, the challenge is failed if you haven't had at least one baby yet.


Third generation:
Is immune to the mutated flu virus that killed billions, so he or she can where ever

they want! As often as they want. The challenge has been won as soon as the third

gen has aged up to a teen or young adult. (Your choice)

Yes, challenge as in wonder if its doable, well first select the botanist aspiration and love the outdoor, you will be an farmer so you better like it.
Doing writing or painting for income might be an bit off in this setting too, it would work in most setting outside an apocalypse.
