an ISBI challenge

This is a casual gameplay story inspired by the I’m Surrounded By Idiots (ISBI) Challenge. The goal of the challenge is to traverse through 10 generations only controlling ONE sim per generation. I’m sure you can imagine what nonsense the unplayable household members will get into. I felt this would be storytelling gold and right up my alley.

Amina Pope is the founder of this legacy, and she is a freelance fashion consultant, blogger, photographer, and stylist. For her, this is my take on her renaissance sim aspiration. Her traits are self-assured, child of the island, and outgoing. A series of unfortunate events drove her to Sulani, where she now lives, and she has taken a lot of time to heal and reinvent herself. Now, she uses her social media platform to uplift plus sized sims, encouraging them to embrace who they are and not hide themselves from the world. She addresses her followers as “big beautiful baddies.” Amina is large and in charge, confident and stunning, and she has a very interesting life ahead of her. Go on the journey with her!
