For those who love Sims 4 and have followed along with LilSimsie’s YouTube Channel, you might be familiar with something called a “legacy challenge.”
Basically, players begin with a single Sim and guide their family through multiple generations with specific goals and rules for each generation. The purpose of these challenges are for Simmers to explore various aspects of the game over a long period of time.
Given the nature of this website, I’ve decided to write my own legacy challenge. This is the Sims 4 Sports Legacy Challenge, where you’ll explore athletics in five generations during gameplay.
