Righteous Babe Legacy

Inspired by Ani DiFranco

Each generation begins with a clear sense of self… and then life gets in the way.

A heartbreak hardens you.
A relationship changes you.
A version of success doesn’t feel like yours anymore.

Core Legacy Rules

Each generation must complete:

  • Optional: Keep the same lot throughout generations (renovate over time)
  • Use aging on normal
  • No money cheats except where specified
  • Track family tree and story progression
