The Sedentary Challenge

"To stay in one place when food is scarce is a gamble, especially to those without a knowledge of agriculture"

A surprisingly hard yet very simple challenge. It has only a few rules, but it makes for an interesting game.

Rules

  • You may set age settings to whatever you like. Longer lifespans make the challenge harder, but also present ample opportunities for stories if you like roleplay.
  • Have as many starters as you like or prefer. Having more starters makes this challenge harder but gives you more breeding material.
  • Start with no nesting material and enough food to support your starters for a few days. 
  • You must establish a den with the following amenities: 
  • A nursery consisting of 2 or more nests in close proximity to each other, preferably in a protected location such as between some rocks or trees.
  • 1 or 2 food sources which can be a stand of trees, berry bushes, or abundant fish.
  • A place for any leader you may have to sit, such as a tree stump or sheltered spot beneath a tree.
  • You should have a leader of some kind. All other ranks are up to you.
  • Wanderers are welcome. 

Gameplay:

Once you're in the game, you must try to find an island with all the amenities. Once you have, set up your den. Now...

You can never leave whatever island you are on.

That's the mainstay of the challenge. You must survive only on the island you have picked. You can set a time limit in either days or generations if you'd like, or just see how long your species survives. 

Good luck!

The best part of this challenge is that other challenges (minus ones that require movement) can be integrated with this one.

Well you start with no nesting material and food enough only for a couple days. Also it would get hard after a while to control your population so you have enough food and don't starve. You can literally never leave so if your population gets out of control it would be bad. Or if you are stuck on a hard island and you're unable to run to an easier island

I hope they decide to do paid dlc. Niche gets easy once you establish yourself on the island with some minor issues ;(

it would be cool to add more stuff. Especially some of the suggestions! But I still can have fun playing it, trying out challenges and making stories with my nichelings.

Ye!!! Maybe a thing they could add to sandbox is how many creatures of a certain type spawn per day? like 10 bearyenas per day

u should make a feature suggestion of this if there isn't one already. You could also have like 10 rabbils a day so that u never have enough berries lol and do a challenge where u cant kill them! THE RABBIT APOCOLYPSE or like 5 bluebirds a day or 7 balance bears
