In concrete terms, this challenge allows us to learn more about certain little-known gameplay elements surrounding the Grim Reaper. The first quests involve learning aboutambrosia, a special dish that can resurrect Sims. But before you get there, you'll need to talk to other Sims, learn to cook and garden, do some research on the Internet... The quests are straightforward, and offer nice rewards without being totally exceptional. The challenge is spread over six weeks, with each week bringing its own set of actions to complete and gifts to collect. In less than an hour, it's possible to collect all the week's rewards, provided your Sims is not totally devoid of skills.

The Grim Reaper is at the heart of these challenges, and she's also at the heart of the next expansion pack, announced this September 5, 2024. These next few months should therefore be very special for this iconic character of The Sims license.
