The Garden Legacy Challenge in The Sims 4 is the perfect way for players to revolutionize their gameplay and embark on a multi-generational journey and tell new, compelling stories. In this challenge, be prepared to step into a world where soil isn't the only thing fertile.

Much like the Not So Berry Challenge, players should name each Sim after various plants in the game as they all have a love for gardening and nature. Each Sim should physically embody their namesake by catering aspects of their clothing, bedrooms, and appearance to match their color. In order to succeed in this Sims 4 challenge, the heir must complete their aspiration, reach the top of their career, and meet all skill level requirements. Players should select a spacious lot, preferably in the rural farmland world of Henford-On-Bagley from Cottage Living, to begin the legacy. Each of the 10 generations must live on this lot and maintain the family garden.

Generation 1: Rose

It all starts with this Sim and their green thumb. As a child, they lived in a noisy and polluted city, but they always yearned for serene meadows and a private garden. They decided to move to the countryside to fulfill their ambitions and run a farm to support their family for generations to come.

Throughout the course of their life, the Rose Sim should reach level 10 of the gardening skill and collect every base game plant. In addition, they should reach at least level five in parenting, cooking, and handiness skills. In terms of family size, they must have at least two children, one dog, and one cat. They must also tame the beasts of the garden by finding cowplant berries and caring for at least two of the giants while also maximizing friendship levels with one beehive.

Generation 2: Daisy

One of the two lucky Sims from the Rose generation must be chosen as heir. The healthy family environment allowed the Daisy generation Sim to flourish. This Sim's personality is characterized by friendliness and nurturing tendencies, and they want nothing more than to socialize and support others around them.

This Sim must reach at least level seven of the politician career. This can be achieved quickly by promoting their Speak For The Trees cause, securing votes, and collecting donations to boost Sims' work performance. They should reach level 10 in both charisma and gardening skills to help with their job performance. In terms of their social life, the Sim should go to hang out with their friends at least three times a week. The first friend that they make as a child should be the person that they end up marrying and having four children with.

Generation 3: Bluebell

The bluebell generation heir grew up surrounded by their siblings, all of whom had the best childhood they could have imagined. All the siblings maintain a perfect friendship with each other. The heir is devoted to blessing their children with that same childhood.

Players may choose their own career for this Sim, but they must reach at least level five in two different jobs. This family-oriented Sim should fill their household with children and master the parenting skill. Every Saturday, the family should pack their things and travel on a vacation or a short trip outside the home. The bluebell heir's relationship with their partner is very strong, and they take Love Day holidays to the extreme.

Generation 4: Sunflower

Growing up, the Sunflower Sim was always the class clown in school and at home. They always got into trouble for pulling pranks on their friends and siblings. This Sim runs a club called the Pranksters and participates in the Humor & Hijinks festival each time it comes around. They never want to grow up, and they never will.

Before this Sim's time is up, they must reach level 10 of the comedy skill and at least level seven of the mischief and charisma skills. They find a professional musician who puts up with their mischievous ways, and they get married. The lead Prankster must purchase a Voodoo doll and use it on their spouse at least 10 times throughout the challenge.

Generation 5: Magnolia

The Magnolia Sim had parents that were born entertainers that lived to perform on stage. They inherit their parents' talents for comedy and entertainment, but their performance anxiety and shy personality make going on stage a daunting task. Hopefully, their dreams of becoming a respected and renowned musician don't die with them.

To help this Sim achieve their dreams, players must master several of the creative skills in the game. Reach level 10 of the piano and singing skills and at least level seven of the guitar and violin skills to meet the skill requirements of this generation. When they're not busy practicing their instruments, this Sim bonds with their one and only friend: their partner in marriage. They must have twins, whether it's by sheer chance or manipulated by using pregnancy cheats.

Generation 6: Pine

One of the twins from the previous generation must start the Pine generation. This Sim always felt second best to their twin. Players can decide whether this is true or not. Rather than focusing on skill mastery, the Pine Sim escapes reality by burying themselves in books.

Although there are no skill or career requirements for this generation, there are plenty of other rules to keep this challenge challenging. The pine lover should figure out how to compose a song, write a book, and paint a masterpiece. Upon the player's judgment, this Sim should have at least three different jobs, and they must find a different job after they reach level four. They may not retire or get married, considering they are noncommittal, although they should have three children as a result of a one-night stand.

Generation 7: Tulip

As a result of their parents' rocky relationship, the Tulip Sim has a troubled mind. They found solace in comfort food and their favorite hobby: video gaming. They've even found a way to meld their hobbies into a career.

This Sim must devote themselves to their video gaming and programming skills. Players should fill their house with in-game and custom content clutter. On rare occasions, they emerge from the safety of their cave to travel to Geekcon in San Myshuno. It's where they meet their spouse. Although the Tulip Sim lacks the motivation to continue the legacy, they should have two children.

Generation 8: Piccoloni

After seeing their parent struggle with both mental and physical health problems, the Piccoloni Sim vowed to protect their children and prioritize all aspects of their health. They keep the house neat and clear of clutter, and they refrain from feeding their kids unhealthy foods or snacks.

In addition to finishing their aspiration and completing the doctor career, this Sim should reach level 10 in fitness and cooking skills. They must marry a fellow doctor whose compatibility and lifestyle match them perfectly. Together, they have three healthy and happy children.

Generation 9: Snapdragon

The Snapdragon Sim definitely inherited their parent's overachieving traits. They enjoyed being pushed to their limits as a child and loves exercise and cooking. They also take advantage of the fresh food and produce from the family's farm.

This Sim should first reach level five of the cooking career, then move on to reach the top of the athletic career. Fitness, cooking, baking, and wellness skills should all be at level 10 before this generation is over. An attempt at the gourmet cooking skill should be made, but the requirement sits at level 5. Players should attempt to cook all recipes in The Sims 4. This Sim must be paired with another foodie and cheat to give the family triplets.

Generation 10: Hydrangea

In direct contrast with the first nine generations, the Hydrangea Sim has decided they don't wish to continue the legacy farm and want something different for their family. It is time for the legacy to move on. Players want to move out into a penthouse in the city and create an exciting future for generations to come.

After marrying someone wealthy, this Sim should move away from the countryside and embrace busy cities such as Windenburg or San Myshuno. There, they must throw parties every weekend and host gold star holiday events. They must reach level 10 in three skills of players' choosing.

The Sims 4 is now available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
