Today I started my very first challenge, the Asylum challenge for The Sims 3. I'm really excited about it because it seems like a lot of fun, and I like that you have to work towards a goal in the game. The official rules are here: http://simmerslounge.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=ts3&thread=190 ; and also the forum with all the asylums you can download and stories and all that is here: http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/53879.page
Basically, you create 8 insane Sims who got put into an asylum, and you can only control one of them: the only one who has a chance to get out of the asylum by completing his/her Life Time Wish.
This is our Sim:
Her name is Skylar Dulie. I personally think she is really pretty. I didn't put any makeup on her and I also didn't put much effort into her outfit and hairstyle, because who cares about what you look like in an asylum? Her LTW is that Robot-Monster cross breeder thing where you reach level 9 of the science career. Anyway, I forget her traits. I'll look them up and tell you guys later :)
So after I made all of her inmates, I place the asylum (I downloaded this one: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=708685) down on an empty lot and attempt to move them in. Unfortunately, they didn't have enough money. The familyfunds cheat (which is allowed at the beginning of the challenge) doesn't work in Edit Town mode or whatever it is for some reason for me, so I had to move them into an empty lot and use motherlode.
Aren't they just a happy family? So the next thing I did, of course, was move them into their proper asylum, which is gorgeous.
I made a few changes and then I started the game.
Here Skylar is, on her way to get a job.
After she came home, I had her go play some chess with one of her inmates.
While Skylar and her inmate played chess, one of the other people in the asylum was crying over a window...
And another was having an argument with himself...
Despite the craziness of the household, I love the view out the window! I definitely chose the right spot to put the asylum.
Skylar earned a logic skill point.
So far, nobody is in that bad of a mood as far as I can tell.
But there are lots of interesting things going on...
And then they started
Anywho, that's enough for now. Thank you for reading!
