Simanity has fallen. After countless years of warfare, greed, and recklessness, the Earth is at a point it can no longer recover. Among the casualties of the war, Berry Sim numbers have fallen past the extinction level. In fact, there are only a few families that survived the slaughter. Illness, warfare, and genocide have left the future of simanity berry-less. Unless...unless... The nations of the world united on one last-ditch final project, The Genesis Project. Here, the last hope for a dying species lies, but will they thrive? Will they even survive at all?

Welcome to the Genesis project. Candidates of the few remaining Berry Sims “volunteered” (not that they were given much of a choice, with those guns pointed at their heads...) to be a part of The Genesis Project. If they were determined to be healthy enough, they were taken to a “research society” to live in until their contributions were required. 

“For the good of society” they told themselves as they sat among the last of their kind. “For the good of society” they told themselves as they were wretched from their family and friends and whisked away. “For the good of society” they told themselves as they were poked and prodded and treated like animals.

And, ultimately, the scientists selected two perfect candidates to begin The Project. One male, one female. One raw, one berry. The last of their kind. The reason why they ultimately agreed, they can tell you themselves.

They are the Adam and Eve of the new world. The last chance. The desperate attempt to save a dying breed. Is it humane? Probably not. Do the overseers care? Probably not.

But we bow to them, nonetheless. Because what other choice do we have?

RULES:

*I will be taking bits a pieces of the legacy challenge, the perfect genetics challenge, the pastel rainbowcy, and the midnight sun challenge**

1. Start with two young adult sims. One is "raw” berry sim, and one is a berry sim.

2. One of the sims must have the “Hates Children” trait. This sim is against the idea of repopulating the berry sims for their own reasons. The rest of the traits for both sims must be randomized. Their aspirations must also be randomized.

3. Start the sims on a small, desolate lot at the beginning. After 2 days pass (Monday, in my game), the “overseer” may give them a small starter house with more accommodations. Decide what you see fit.

4. NO INTERACTION WITH OTHER SIMS. Delete them, ignore them, do whatever you see fit. It’s just your two sims from here on out until you have children.

5. Build a small pond on your home lot. This will be your source of fishing/food at the start of the challenge.

6. The overseer doesn’t care about your sims. They only care about your sims as breeding mules. Once they start complying with repopulation efforts, the overseer may give your sims some presents (furniture, clothing, baby items, skill items, etc) 

7. Have as many children as possible in order to please the overseer. Or don’t and see their wrath. The more “mixed” the genes are from the two colors, the happier the overseer will be. (I MAY END UP HAVING A “perfect genetic” GOAL, BUT FOR NOW I AM UNDECIDED) All genes for the children must be randomized as well as their aspirations. The only exception to this rule is that the heir must inherit the “Hates Children” trait. 

8. Teach toddlers how to walk, talk, and be potty trained to please the overseer. Or don’t and see their wrath.

9. As children age up into Young Adults, feel free to add berry spouses sent from the overseer to continue the populus. No incest, please :) This is a generational legacy, so let’s try and diversify the bloodlines, yo.

10. Have fun! I prefer to not cheat (besides resetsim) in order to make this more difficult, but you do you!
