๐ The story
Something is spreading out there, and the only safe place is inside. The doors are sealed, the windows shut, and for the length of the quarantine nobody comes in and nobody goes out โ your whole household's survival comes down to what's already within these four walls, and whether everyone can keep their minds intact.
๐ The goal
Keep an entire household healthy and **sealed indoors** for a set quarantine period.

๐ก Strategy tips
- Stock a home garden and a full fridge *before* you seal up โ running out of food mid-quarantine has no easy fix.
- Cabin fever is the real enemy: rotate fun activities, give everyone their own space, and watch tense moodlets.
- Skills that can be built indoors (cooking, painting, fitness, logic) keep Sims productive and sane.

๐ฅ Want it harder?
- Start with one already-sick member who must be isolated and nursed without infecting the rest.
- Cut the household off-grid too, so even comfort must be self-generated.
