Tiny Town Challenge
Build 7 tiny homes for 7 Sims, each earning money through their unique skill to fund their own house. Full rules, Sim guides, and tips for a cozy community build.
The Tiny Town Challenge, created by Deligracy, is a creative and community-focused challenge that combines building, skill development, and storytelling. The goal is to build seven tiny homes on one lot for seven unique Sims, each with their own skills, favorite styles, and colors. This challenge encourages you to think small, work with limited funds, and create a vibrant, interconnected community.
The Goal
The aim of this challenge is to build 7 tiny homes on one lot, for 7 Sims that match their desires and skills. You can download Deligracy's 7 Sims from the Gallery (username: deligracy) via the hashtags #deligracy or #tinytown, and also download her "Tiny Town lot." Alternatively, you can create your own Sims and lot!
The Rundown
- Each Sim has a set skill that you must utilize in order to fund their tiny home build. For example, Frank Stem likes floral arranging, so you must sell floral arrangements to fund his Tiny House build.
- You must also represent each Sim's favorite style and color in the build (see Sim characters below).
- You can only work on one Sim's house at a time, moving 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 randomizer, or just pick your favorite.
- 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 constraints 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
Community Areas: Your Sims may contribute to community areas to help other neighbors 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.
For Rent Pack: 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. It is advised to set their rent to $0 or the minimum to avoid additional income.
Bills and Kitty: 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 notepad and paper. If you have The Sims 4 For Rent, separating them into rentals could make it easier.
Pack Adjustments: 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 utilize base game features. There are many ways to make money, including tasks like collecting valuable objects or careers.
Lifespan and Cheats: You can play on any lifespan, use any cheats, lot traits/challenges, or Sims – but keep in mind the easier you make it for yourself will mean it isn't as much of a challenge!
