The Goal
The aim of this challange is to build 7 tiny homes on one lot, for 7 sims that match their desires and skills. Download my 7 sims off the gallery (username:deligracy) via the #deligracy or #tinytown. Then, download my "Tiny Town lot". Alternatively you can create your own!

The Rundown
- Each sim has a set skill that you must utilise in order to fund their tiny home build. For example Frank Stem likes Florist arranging, so you must sell floral arrangements to fund his Tiny House build.
- You must also represent each sim's favourite style and colour in the build (see sim characters below) - You can only work on one sim's house at a time, move each sim in individually as you "unlock" them.
- To "unlock" the next sim, you must complete the previous sim's home.
How to play
- Start by moving your first sim into the Tiny Town lot.
- To select your first sim, you could use an online randomiser, or just pick your favourite.
- After you move in your first sim, use a money cheat to set money at $0.
- Each sim has an allocated "tiny lot" with their skill item of choice, and some useful items in a box labelled with their name (If you have Eco Lifestyle). They also start with a tent, cooler and bush to wee and poop in. Feel free to adjust these items if you don't have the required packs.
- After you find your skill items start making simoleons through selling your creations!
- Use this money to build your sim's tiny home!
- The Tiny Home does not have to fit into the contraints of the Tiny Home Stuff Pack sizes, the idea is to just make them small enough to fit 7 on one lot!
Extra Rules and ideas
- Your sims may contribute to community areas to help other neighbours when they move in and to create a lovely sense of community and lifestyle. Ideas could be a shared laundry, bathroom, BBQ area, garden etc.
- If you have The Sims 4 For Rent, you may like to play multiple families on the one lot. This way you can let each sim romance and have families. I advise you set their rent to $0 or the minimum to avoid additional income.
- As you move in more sims and build more homes you will have to pay higher bills. Try your best to only build with your current sim's earnings, however you may keep track of a kitty for household bills too! You could even put this kitty money into a shared Get Famous money vault - or keep track on a note pad and paper. If you have The Sims 4 For Rent, separating them into rentals could make it easier.
- Most players won't have all, if any, of The Sims DLC packs. Feel free to alter the challenge to suit the packs you do have, or utilise basegame features. There are many ways to make money including tasks like collecting valuable objects or careers.
- You can play on any lifespan, use any cheats, lot traits/challenges, sims - but keep in mind the easier you make it for yourself will mean it isn't as much of a challenge!
