For the Base Game ONLY version, click here.
Basic Rules:
1. Each heir must represent the personality and persona of her American Girl counterpart. This is NOT a decades style challenge so you do NOT need historical clothing or objects (unless you want to!).
2. Money cheats can be used, but not excessively. Suggestion: use freerealestate for your first home, but no cheats afterward.
3. You may live wherever you please unless something is specified in the rules of a generation.
4. Every generation is supposed to complete both the career and aspiration of the heir unless explicitly stated otherwise.
5. Keep the lifespan on the “normal” setting.
6. If you play this challenge and want to share it with us, go ahead and post with #aglegacy or #agchallenge so we can see!
