๐Ÿ“– The story

Five real minutes on the clock. One Sim and their room. Go. Re-style both before the timer buzzes โ€” no agonising, no second-guessing, just fast creative reps that sharpen your instincts.

๐Ÿ’ The goal

Re-style a Sim **and** their room against a **five-minute real-world timer**.

๐Ÿ“‹ General rules

  • Both the Sim and the room are restyled within five minutes.
  • No pre-planning the makeover.
  • Whatever exists at 5:00 is final.

โœจ Specific rules

  • Change the Sim's look (hair, outfit, makeup) and the room's furnishings.
  • Commit to choices fast โ€” no undo spirals.
  • Stop the moment the timer ends.

โœ… What you can do

  • Run a five-minute real-world timer; restyle in CAS and rebuild the room; money cheats and `bb.moveobjects` fine for the buys.

โ›” What you can't do

  • No pre-planning before the timer starts.
  • Stop at 5:00 โ€” both the Sim and the room must be done.

๐Ÿ’ก Strategy tips

  • Pick a clear direction in the first ten seconds (a colour, a vibe) and execute it, don't explore.
  • Use "buy by the room" and full CAS outfit swaps to move fast.
  • Done-and-bold beats half-finished-and-safe when the buzzer goes.
