You may have heard of the Sims Legacy Challenge and spin off Uglacy, Prettacy, Riskacy, and Rainbowcy challenges, The Family Man a.k.a. Who’s Your Daddy? Challenge, The Gold Digger Challenge, the Bachelor Challenge, the Asylum Challenge, and the Orphanage Challenge. Welcome! You have somehow stumbled upon a Sims 3 Polygamy challenge. I actually thought that I invented this myself, but a quick google search proved me wrong… someone else actually thought of it already!

I got this idea after reading a bunch of autobiographies about people who practiced the Mormon faith with the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints. Imagine: modern day arranged marriages, child brides, and one man living with many wives and children under one roof. Sounds the makings of great reality TV… or an interesting Sims legacy challenge!

Here are the rules:
First, you will need to download several mods including the multiple marriage mod, the no jealousy mod, the teen pregnancy mod, and the mod that allows for more than eight occupants within one house.

1.) In this religion, the man will not go to heaven unless he has three wives so you will start with the legacy founder and his three wives. Alternately, you may start with just your founder and he can marry townies as the game progresses.

A modder named BIlly Rand (sic) certainly seems to think so, and thus he has devised a series of mods for The Sims 4, adding stuff like teenage pregnancy, polygamy and sibling marriage, among other things. Perfect if you want to recreate the major houses from Game of Thrones. Or whatever floats your boat. There is a sims 4 polygamy mod/polyamory mod/multiple marriages and relationships and no jealousy! The no jealousy is on the link below the video (on the blog) and if you check out the blog or video there is a mod for polygamy.

2.) The more sims you marry and move in, the more points you get… and mouths you have to feed. No money cheats after you’ve created the house the way you want it and started playing.

3.) The more children you father, the more points you get… and mouths you have to feed.

4.) The patriarch must divide his time amongst his wives equally, showing no favoritism. Each wife has her own day to be loved on a scheduled rotation so no woo hoo with other wives on that wife’s day. (Kissing and hugging is fine though.) Your sim must woo hoo with the wife who is scheduled for that day at least once, if he fails to do so because he is in a bad mood, you lose points. Force the wife to nag her husband. If she’s the one in a bad mood, she can swap days with one of her sister wives.

5.) Pick a holy day. If you choose Saturday for example, your sim may not go to work on that day, too bad if you lose your job. His wives are not allowed to get jobs though they can earn money by playing guitar for tips, writing, painting, photography, mooching, selling collectables, whatever.

6.) You must have at least one child with every spouse. Negative points for every wife who does not bare fruit.

7.) On the holy day, you must tithe to the temple. If you have the good trait, send a donation to a charity. Otherwise, use a money cheat to reduce the family funds by 10%.

8.) No watermelon and apple cheats. Let the gender of the children remain random.

9.) There are two ways to play. Option one is to kick out all the sons as soon as you are able to do so. All daughters must stay members of the household. Right before the patriarch dies, move in his best and most trusted friend or create a new sim after he dies and move him in. The new patriarch is married to all of the former patriarch’s daughters and his wives, too, and he cannot kick them out. The other option is to have the firstborn son be the next heir and all his brothers are kicked out as soon as they are of age. As soon as his sisters reach puberty, they must get married and leave the household. Now the son must begin his quest to find wives. Remember, he must have at least three.

10.) No aging up early. You can use birthday cakes if you like, but only if the child is at 0 days until aging up.

11.) If there was a baby girl born to the former patriarch just before he passed, that baby is also one of the new patriarchs wives. She doesn’t have to fulfill any marital duties until she reaches adulthood though (or teens if you’re opting to use a adult-teen relations mod). But she must still bare a child for the new patriarch before he dies of old age or it counts against you in the points below.

Optional rules

Sims 4 Polygamy/multiple Marriages Mod 1.12.2

• There are bans on particular foods and the sims consider technology evil so they don’t use TV, computers, or phones.
• The sims must dress modestly and wear head scarves.

Points
The challenge ends when the second patriarch dies and a third is chosen.

• +10 points for each wife.
• +10 points for each child born and raised to young adulthood.
• +5 points for each skill that children raise to at least 3 before young adulthood. If the skill was 0.1% from hitting 3 when they age up, it doesn’t count.
• +2 points for each point beyond 3 a child earns beyond 3 before reaching young adulthood. (So if a child raised logic to 5 before they aged up to young adult, it would be worth 9 points. 5 for the first 3 points and 4 more for the two points after that). +2 points for every child that ages up to teen on the honor roll and another +2 points for every teen that ages up to young adult on the honor roll. Just having an A isn’t enough, it has to be honor roll.
• +5 points for every 10,000 simoleons you have at the end of the challenge.
• +5 points for every career level the patriarchs earn over 4. (So starting at level 5… a maximum of 30 points for reaching level 10). If your sim changes jobs (either willingly or not), count only the career they earned the highest job level in.

• -10 points for any day the patriarch fails to fulfill his husbandly duties (woohoo). This does not include the day they die. This does include if the patriarch is unable to convince the wife to woohoo with him that day.
• -10 points for every grade level below C-
• -50 points for each and every child taken by social services.
• -10 points if the repo man comes to take your stuff
• -10 points if any of the patriarch’s wives misbehave in public (getting into fights, flirting with other men, stuff like that). Drop to penalty to -5 if the patriarch catches them doing it and scolds them and they don’t do it again.
• -20 points for every wife that does not have a child with the current patriarch. This does not apply if the wife is past her childbearing years when a new patriarch is chosen or is not old enough yet to bear children. If any of the former patriarchs wives are still able to bear children, though, the negative counts if the new patriarch fails to have a child with them for whatever reason before they are unable to have children. (Yes, it still counts even if the household is full when the new patriarch is added). The new patriarch just has to wait until there’s room in the household (either from an aging up son of the former patriarch, or one of the older wives dying of old age) before he can start trying for babies.

5. Polygamy

Are you bored of jealous Sims smacking each of your other love interests? Wish that your sister-wives could just get along? Want more kids than Bob Marley and make sure everyone's okay with it? This mod is just for you. With the polygamy mod, your Sims are now able to have a relationship with -and marry - more than one person at a time. You can go the Hugh Hefner route and date multiple hot blondes or, if you prefer, you can even enter a group marriage - let your freak flag fly! All without that pesky jealousy getting in the way. You can download polygamy mods at All Sims Mods and Mod The Sims.
