Rules/Guidelines

Using the Sims 3, I'm going to follow a 10 Generation storyline, Disney style. Basically, a 10 Gen Legacy is where you play the Sims 3 from the founder for 10 Generations. There are rules and specific ones vary depending on the type of Legacy you're following. Here is a link to the very nitty gritty 10 Gen Legacy (note that I have altered certain rules). Original 10 Gen Legacy

Here are the rules I have set for myself:

1. The house/lot you purchase must be unfurnished and must leave you with §1300 or less. In the situation where you start off with more money (a large family, for instance), then choose the most expensive furnished lot (as they aren't high quality until you choose to 'move')
2. Absolutely no cheats or mods, with the exception of ResetSim Firstname Lastname, as long as you aren't using it to simply return them home quickly.
3. Aging must be set to normal
4. Do not resurrect Sims unless the challenge specifically calls for it
5. Do not eat a birthday cake on any other day besides the Sim's birthday
6. Founder and Heirs cannot move into other Sims houses (unless the challenge specifically calls for it)

And here are the specific set of rules for this challenge (see the original Disney Challenge Rules):

Note: I have edited some of the rules as more EP's have come out (the mermaid one for example.)

Gen 1: Cinderella (exception to rule #6) Completed



Forced to clean and cook for your evil stepsisters and mother, you never knew life had such great experiences. 
Founders always have humble beginnings and what better way to kick off this challenge than the story of Cinderella?!
1. Must have "Neat" trait
2. Must make all of the beds in the morning and cook all of the meals
3. Must live with two ugly stepsisters and an evil stepmom
4. Stepsisters must have: mean spirited, snob, and schmoozer as traits
5. Stepmom must have: evil, mean spirited, and snob traits
6. Move out of the house once you find your "Prince Charming" (rule #6 above)
7. Get married and have kid/s

Gen 2: Toy Story Completed


"You've got a friend in me!"
No one believed that your toy was real. So how were you going to prove to them that you were in love?
1. Heir/ess must have Imaginary Friend doll
2. Turn the doll into an IF
3. Turn the IF into a human
4. Marry this human and have children

Gen 3: Snow White Completed




"Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?"
You are beautiful and many found your beauty to be infuriating. Better watch your back!
1. Have at least 10 enemies
2. Must have the "good" trait
3. Have ONLY 7 friends (or dwarves, if you catch my drift) OR have 7 roomates
4. Experience your untimely death at the hands of someone who hates you
5. Have your "prince charming" raise you from the dead (playable ghost) (exception to rule #4)
6. Have children-this HAS to come after you are raised from the dead

Gen 4: Sleeping Beauty



"The princess shall indeed grow in grace and beauty, beloved by all who know her. But... before the sun sets on her 16th birthday, she shall prick her finger, on the spindle of a spinning wheel-AND DIE!"
You are beautiful and many found your beauty to be infuriating. Better watch your back!
1. Must be sent away-prep school
2. Must have the "good" trait
3. Have 3 fairy friends
4. Move to/visit Isla Paradiso
5. Marry mermaid
4. Have children

Gen 5: The Little Mermaid


"Wish I could be part of your world..."
You were teased for being a mermaid child. It was unnatural. Still, some find beauty within and when you found the love of your life, you were willing to do anything in order to become human.
1. Heir/ess must be a mermaid
2. Fall in love while in mer form
3. Must be transformed to be human again
4. Get married, have children.

Gen 6: Aladdin



"I can't go back to where I used to be..."
Your parents concealed you from the world, in fear that you would be made fun of or thought of differently because your mother was previously a mermaid. The only way to fix this was if you agreed to marry a stranger-your parents thought it would save you the heartbreak later.
1. You CANNOT have any friends at school-or you can be homeschooled
2. You aren't allowed to leave the house, unless it's for school
3. Frequently sneak out after dark-don't get caught
4. Meet your future lover on one of your rebellious sneak outs
5. Have parents arrange your marriage to a stranger
6. Leave the stranger at the alter and find your "street rat"
7. Lover MUST be in the criminal career ("Prince Ali" was a thief, remember?)
8. Get married to lover, have kids

Gen 7: Lion King



"Oh I just can't wait to be King!"
Let's face it; you are filthy, stinking rich! The world is at your fingertips-or so your Dad has told you. You can have anything you want!
1. Be super popular
2. Make one enemy (every Simba needs a Scar, no?)
3. Have heir/ess from Gen 6 die (in the typical one-parent-is-always-dead Disney style)
4. Leave everything behind and live humbly away from your riches
5. Move back into your original house
6. Get married, have kids

Gen 8: Nightmare Before Christmas


There is always the criminal. Your grandfather/mother was a criminal, so how bad can you be, right? Pretty bad.

1. Join criminal career
2. Reach the top of the criminal career
3. Fall in love ONLY ONCE you reach the top of the career
4. Quit your job-love has changed you!
5. Get married, have kids

Gen 9: Beauty and The Beast



"New and a bit alarming. Who'd have ever thought that this could be? True that he's no Prince Charming, but there's something in him that I simply didn't see."
Despite your mother/father's crazy ways, you were more of the quiet type. You longed for the romance of your ancestors-the type that only seemed to belong in books.
1. Must have "Bookworm" trait
2. Mother or Father goes to jail
3. Meet 'beast'-werewolf
4. Heir/ess gets kidnapped and brought to live in a creepy old mansion
5. Heir/ess falls in love with the "beast"-werewolf
6. Get married, have kids!

Gen 10: The Hunchback of Notre Dame


"If I was in their skin, I'd treasure every instant out there, strolling by the Seine, taste a morning out there, like ordinary men, who freely walk about there. Just on day, and then I swear I'll be content with my share..."
Beauty within your butt! Your parents may be content with their life-after all, love is all that matters to them-but you are made fun of for your... odd appearance. Constantly bullied, you found it hard to make friends.
1. Throughout childhood, make more enemies that friends.
2. Meet the wo/man of your dreams and try to woo them.
3. Must have "Loser" trait
4. Lose the wo/man of your dreams to a more-let's face it-popular and beautiful person
5. No children. How could you bear to let your children face the same ugly fate as you?

And of course, I shall record the process in here, much following the ways of the actual story! Enjoy!

  1. This looks awesome! I never normally bother even looking at ten gen challenges because I don't have the patience but this looks really amazing so I'll probably give it a shot!

    1. I'm glad for you! Haha, personally I know that it's hard to keep up (it'd be easier if my computer cooperated XD) It is fun, though, and I have each gen planned out

  2. I play sims on the Xbox 360 and it won't let me control the people that I move out so what do I do when it says I have to move out

    1. Hm I'm not totally sure how to help you but I don't think you can control people you move out. You might have too many sims in one household :)
