The Not So Berry Legacy Challenge isn’t for the faint of heart, but it promises to test your Sims mastery across ten unique generations. Ready to cultivate a colorful family tree? Here’s your guide to conquering the Not So Berry Challenge in The Sims 4.
What’s the Not So Berry Challenge?
This creative legacy challenge tasks you with raising ten generations of Sims, each named after a different shade inspired by nature. More than just a colorful lineage, the challenge aims to push you to explore lesser-known aspects of the game while creating a vibrant cast of characters.
Each generation, your active Sim will have specific goals based on their assigned color. These goals encompass career achievements, aspirations, and raising a worthy heir to carry on the colorful legacy. Buckle up, because this captivating challenge spans ten Sim generations!
How to Complete the Not So Berry Challenge in The Sims 4
To begin, fire up your Sims 4 and create your founder Sim – the one who’ll initiate your Not So Berry dynasty.
For an extra layer of fun, consider following lilsimsie’s original rules:
- Each generation’s heir must fulfill both their chosen career path and aspiration, unless otherwise specified.
- Let your Sims live out their normal lifespans for a more realistic experience.
- While brightly colored skin isn’t mandatory, aim to represent each generation’s designated color through clothing, hair, or other visual elements. Spouses’ colors are flexible, though.
- Money cheats are okay in moderation, but avoid excessive use. You can also utilize the “freerealestate” cheat to set up your founder’s home.
- The choice of neighborhood is yours – pick a world that inspires your Sim story!
Generation One: Mint
The first generation is all about mint! Create your founder Sim with mint-themed clothing, hair, makeup, or tattoos in CAS. Personality-wise, choose Vegetarian, Jealous, and Materialistic traits.

- Master the Scientist career.
- Master Mischief and Logic skills.
- Complete the Chief of Mischief aspiration.
- Collect all elements.
Generation Two: Rose
Your Rose Sim is a hotheaded, snobby romantic with a surprising side – ambition. Dress them in red and aim for the Politician career.
