"Madman" Basement challenge
Create 1 male adult and 2 young adult sims, 1 male and one female. The Adult MUST have the insane trait. This is the madman. He must have a long beard, but every other aspect of his appearance is your choice. He is the ONLY sim to get a job. The two other sims must be THIN to the smallest they can go, but any other part of their appearance is up to you.
Build a house with a small, ordinary looking house on the top and a basement below. Fill the top house with fairly cheap-ish furniture, but fill the basement with the cheapest furniture you can and ONLY get the bare essentials. The stairs to the basement must be in a hidden back room of the house.
The 2 other sims are NOT allowed to leave the basement no matter what. The object of the game is to survive until the madman dies. Once the madman dies, either of old age or of any other cause, your sims can finally leave the basement and either take control of the house or move out.
