All 64 Lifetime wishes
So where do I start. My all time favourite game is The Sims. I like to write stories about them too on my other blog. I'll give a link in a bit. I also like to do challenges but I can't write a story for all of them so I thought I'd use this blog to kinda comment on the latest challenge I'm doing. It was thought up by one of my fellow simmers, slynnski here's how she explains it.
Hello everyone
So, I randomly came up with an idea last night. It's called a Lifetime Wish Legacy Challenge. How does this work, you ask? Well, let me explain.
It's essentially your average Legacy Challenge (minus the points and the strict rules--no offence to Pinstar), except each generation's heir/heiress must fulfil a unique Lifetime Wish.
IF you have all expansion packs installed (base game, World Adventures, Ambitions, Generations, Late Night, Pets & Showtime), this includes 64 unique Lifetime Wishes. Yes, that means 64 generations in total. If you are not up for this hefty challenge, turn back now!
If you're still with me, then read on!
Now, I realise that not everyone has every single expansion pack like I do. Therefore, I'll make things easier for you like so:
-The Base Game comes with 32 Lifetime Wishes
-World Adventures comes with 8 additional Lifetime Wishes
-Ambitions comes with 8 additional Lifetime Wishes
-Generations comes with 0 additional Lifetime Wishes
-Late Night comes with 6 additional Lifetime Wishes
-Pets comes with 7 additional Lifetime Wishes
-Showtime comes with 3 additional Lifetime Wishes
I think you can do the math from here according to which expansions (if any) you have installed.
To view a full list of all 64 Lifetime Wishes and which expansion packs they are from, see the 'Intricacies' post below.
Well, those are the basics! Obviously this challenge will be a lot more fun if you decide to document/write a story to go with it. I've started my own documentation thread and will be posting the link below in the post entitled 'Links'.
Read on below for more details about each unique Lifetime Wish, specific rules, and links to players' stories associated with this challenge. As always, feel free to leave feedback and give me suggestions to improve this challenge. And also, if I have copied someone else's idea, please let me know. I have not seen a challenge like mine anywhere else on the forums, but then again, I did not scour ever inch of them. So please alert me if my challenge seems too similar to someone else's.
Have fun, and Happy Simming!

So there you have it those are the rules. I have all expansion packs so I guess I'll be trying to do all 64.
Well I started this a while back and my daughter and I decide to have a race to see who could complete it. I don't even know if we ever will, however, I didn't document any of the events that took place. Now due to technical difficulties I've had to start over, so I decided to try to document it from now on. I'm not writing a story as such just letting you know what is going on in the game. For the purpose of this game I'll be letting my Sims have a free reign in what they want to do and will only direct the action according to the wishes they express, which should lead to their ultimate lifetime wish. Once they have achieved that it will be time to move on to the next generation. Now here's something new for me I hope to let you the reader choose the next generation in the hope that I will get more readers. I've always had a plan in mind as to how I wanted my stories to go so picked my heirs/heiress' myself. I hope you like what you see and if so tell your friends if not tell me, so I can improve, comments are welcomed in fact encouraged, and gratefully received, just remember to be nice.
