Bluewater Village Coast, first 4 houses (Drop, Viejo, Kim and Picaso)

Clark Drop, Amateur Photographer and wannabe artist

Betty Goldstein and Catherine Viejo planning their new rooms in the house

Family time with the Kim’s

Clark Drop closed a deal to be the official photographer for the “Old Town” Census, the first family that did the photo-shoot were the Patel Family. Ana and Ramir and the twins Kaleb and Belle.


Some of the families will get two photo-shoots, one more fun and casual and the other a formal one.

Ramir is a foreign politic that wants a good and happy life with his family. Ana wants a big family with 10 kids minimum, their first kids are the twins Kaleb and Belle, Kaleb is a funny and playful kid, he’s not the perfect heir to the Patel fortune, but his parents love him. Belle is a shy and kind girl with a lovely smile. Ana is expecting another baby.

Kaleb is “Marvin” from @marvelann thanks so much for him.
Belle is “Lilith” from @monstercongo thanks so much for her.
Definitely try the challenges if you have a chance. The family tree challenge is my favorite out of all of them, I think. (That might be because Florence is my favorite sim of all time...who knows?) In any case, have fun with however you play Bluewater Village! :)









Are you ready for Bluewater Challenge Round 2? Yay!!!
This is how the town stands as we enter Round 2: No one is married (who wasn’t married before). All the single sims except Chester and Cyd have found significant others. 2 sims are expecting, as is one cat. Businesses are booming. I’d say the town is thriving!
Click the pictures for a refresher on who’s doing what challenge. Then let’s head to Landgraab Manor to kick things off in Round 2!

So, I've been playing a new version of Bluewater Village (and by playing I mean I've spent the past two days just trying to set it up and so far I've only made over Malcolm and his mansion...)
I'm probably not going to share a whole lot on here, but I found this picture too funny to resist.
Bluewater Village 2024














I'm not going to be documenting every detail this time, but I am back in Bluewater! (I finally found a work/life balance that lets me play sims every once in a while!) I've played four rounds now, so maybe 15-20 years? Let's call it 20 because it's a nicer number.
I'm still playing with the basic rules I had all those years ago (2016!) but I focused more on gameplay than on storytelling and I've changed some of the challenges. I'll share more about each family and their challenges in individual posts. (Otherwise this one would get way too big!)
The Landgraab Legacy

I didn't feel like doing a big dramatic story with Malcolm this time (as fun as that was in the past...) Instead, with a little help from the matchmaker, Malcolm married Gwen the downtownie (usually she's in a blue sweater with a hat). They currently have two kids: Mimi and Malcolm V. They also have another baby on the way, because Gwen wanted one and I want to keep playing with their genetics (even though there are already WAAAAY too many kids in this neighborhood!)
The Landgraab legacy rules are pretty much the same as they were in 2016. The firstborn male inherits (which means Mimi is out of luck). The heir must go to college and join the secret society. When they graduate, they have to keep both the family businesses (Club Dante and the Electronics Super Center). They can change what those businesses sell, but they have to keep both lots.
Mimi is going to be a teenager in this next round, and I’m interested in seeing what she gets up to. I also need to figure out who all little Malcolm is friends with, because I’ve been trying to get all the kids to be friends, but I’m not sure how well it’s taken.
