I've been trying to start some new challenges because I've been getting bored with my regular legacy family! I started the most common, such as the 100 Baby Challenge and a 10-generation legacy.
There are so many in the Sims 4 Challenge List and it can be hard to find good ones. So I was wondering what are your favorite challenges that keep you interested, Sims 4 or otherwise?

Asylum
Homeless Elder
Runaway Teen
Runaway Siblings
Living Off the Grid
Living Off the Land
Eco Existence
Random Legacy
Time Lord
Room
ISBI
Rosebud
Super Sim
Tiny Living
Collections (my own made-up challenge)
...and my all time favorite, Rags to Riches in various scenerios such as; Dine-Out, Klepto, Retail, Extreme, etc. In fact, 99% of my gameplay saves start out as Rags to Riches where my Sim begins on an empty lot with no money and can't get a job.
Links to the rules for most of these challenges (except my own) can be found here:
Sims 4 Challenges List
I've also just started a Prettacy and it's turning out to be quite fun.
If you like to build, my favorite challenge is the Sims 4 Build-n-Share Challenge. I also like One Room, One Week, One Theme.
If you like to write the Monthly SimLits - A Short Story Challenge is fun too!
Edit: Opps, I see you already included a link to the challenges list. o.O
@LiaRose1435 Wow this one looks tough, I also micromanage my sims! This is definitely one I want to try soon, thank you!
@magicmermaid9 This one looks fun, thank you so much!
@Karababy52 This inspired me to get going on my first Rosebud Challenge!! This is an awesome list, I haven't looked at a lot of these so they will definitely be fun to try out. After the Rosebud I think I'm going to try Living Off the Grid or Asylum. Thank you so much!

It's a Netflix legacy challenge and it's super fun. I'm on the first generation, #girlboss. The next generation is Riverdale. It's the only legacy challenge that I may actually stick with.
I had a teenager, a child and a toddler. Home lot was a small forest where there was a campfire, a potty and stone benches. Traveling within their world was for free, and assumed done by walking, but going to another world cost 10 lindens each, assumed to be public transport. I didn't let them go to school unless they could buy new clothes to look like they weren't homeless (and therefore not alert authorities), 300 lindens for children, 600 lindens for the teen. They could purchase a tent and use it at night in parks or the home forest. No buying build mode items if it didn't make sense that they could 1) buy it in store and walk off with it (like the tent) 2) that it could be portable in reality, even if not inventory carriable in the sims, like the potty.
Moving into an apartment cost extra, so if the rent was 400 lindens per week, I added 400 lindens guarantee and 400 lindens bribe money to the landlord for ignoring that there's just a teen, no adults present.
'n although I play with aging off, with them I counted days manually and aged them up according to the medium aging pace. Well, until they were all young adults, but by then they had pretty much won the whole thing. They now live in a penthouse, the teen grew up to be charity icon, the child is a doctor and the toddler is a famous musician. Loved playing them.
I should really pick another challenge, they're fun. Thank you for the lists!
@Lumiasta Your version/rules look so interesting, I definitely have to try it. Thank you so much for the inspiration! This is a great idea.
@ponygir44 Oooo just looked over these rules, thanks for the idea. It looks super interesting, so I just started a new save with my cult's founder! This should be a good one. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome! Glad you were inspired to try the Rosebud Challenge. It's a lot of fun and so are the other two you want to try. They both have their merits, but I think the Asylum challenge is especially challenging for a micromanager (I'm one too). I'm surprised I have any fingernails left after playing that one. o.O It was hard not being able to intervene, but I did enjoy some of the silly things they did. I swear the only thing one inmate wanted to do was tell chicken jokes all day. lol
Enjoy and have a very Happy New Year!
We'll be starting the 2018 Challenge Tournament on Carl's Guide tomorrow, Jan 1. Lots of short challenges, if you're interested. Here's a link to the thread which has all the links: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/comment/16211919#Comment_16211919.
@BabySquare I looked up the rules for this one and it looks interesting for sure. Thank you so much! (Plus, I didn't even know what a growfruit was before you shared this!)
Dark but fun and Challenging.

At the moment I'm doing my own challenge to get a family to 100 generations on long life. No cheats it the only real rule. It's the sticking to that one family that is the only rule other than no cheats. It isn't an actual challenge though, just me challenging my sticktoitiveness.
Saying "not to be rude", then blatently being rude does not excuse rude behavior.
@LaPetiteFromage I've started a Decades Challenge legacy before, and just didn't stick with it. I would love to try it again though, just reading the rules is making me want to try it again! Thank you!
@ladybreid The Not-So-Berry does look interesting, it's definitely on my list of ones I want to try in the future! And wow 100 generations? Especially on long! I'm not sure I could do that haha, maybe I could on normal and with sims that I really really like. That's so awesome! If you want to keep track of all the family members I would definitely suggest using something like this website, it's called the Plum Tree App and it's for making sims family trees! It's worked well for me so far

The Woodward Legacy-Pemberton 100 Baby Challenge
Do you have a wedding ceremony for each wedding? Does she have friends/family beside the husbands? I like this challenge.
