Sims 4 Asylum Challenge

So, here the history repeated itself by bringing The Asylum Challenge in Sims 4. This competition was first brought by the Sims 2, where the rules were more straightforward than the ones, what will be in the latest instalment.

As the name suggests, the challenge would get held in an Asylum with Sims 4 Asylum clothes. You would get forcefully admitted in a mental hospital for being insane, and nobody would believe that you are perfectly sane unless you prove it to them.

Now the question arises, “How would you prove them that you’re not mad?” The answer is that you have to complete some aspirations to make them believe you are mentally stable.

You will be stuck with seven other mentally unstable patients, who are strangers to you and a living condition, which is not something that one would envy you for.

The task would be easy, but with your existing circumstances, it might be a hell of a job. As we all know, “it’s easier than done”, and you will know why.

The Sims 4 will have similar gameplay and general instructions as of Sims 2 but with severe measures. To know about these difficulties and rules, continue reading.
