SinceThe Sims,aspirationshave been a core part of the gaming experience, and that’s no different inThe Sims 4. With all the packs, there are so many aspirations for players to choose from. Despite that, many of them still gravitate towards the same ones over and over. Here are thebest aspirationsThe Sims 4has to offer to encourage Simmers to step out of their comfort zone and try something new.
13Master Maker
Despite this aspiration getting last place, it’s still fun enough to make it. This aspirationcomes with Eco Lifestyleand is a great choice for players looking to explore the crafting features of the pack.
This expansion came with loads of options for the craftier Sims and Simmers. With the ability to make candles and furniture, as well as sustainably source the necessary materials, Eco Lifestyle has a lot to offer and can bring players out of their usual playstyles.
12Country Caretaker
This aspirationcomes with Cottage Livingand is perfect for the farmer Sim who wants to devote their life to their plants and animals. Managing a farm is no easy feat but having this aspiration will make things a little easier.
With this aspiration requiring players to build their relationship with the farm animals, harvest crops and even enter the competitions in Henford-On-Bagley, this seemingly simply aspiration will drag the average Simmer out of their comfort zone and force them to touch some virtual grass.
11Archeology Scholar
The Jungle Adventure pack was recently part of a promotion with EA and Epic Games, giving players around the world access to this pack (for free) for the first time. This aspiration is a great choice for players wanting to explore the world of Selvadorada but don’t know where to start.

This aspiration will take players through the archeological wonders waiting to be explored and may even leave them with more questions than answers. Selvadorada is a beautiful world waiting for an adventurous Sim to come along and uncover its secrets, and this aspiration will be a wonderful guide.
10Master Chef
Compared to other skill-based aspirations, this aspiration offers a little more variety and is actually a pretty fun (and easy) one to try and complete. While gainingthe cooking skill is pretty easyto do passively, because Sims need to eat, this aspiration also requires Sims to actually be in the culinary career.
Besides building the Cooking skill and progressing in the career, Simmers will also need to have some successful party events. This puts a nice twist on the usual format of the skill-based aspirations and challenges players without it being too challenging. Because players only need to get a silver medal at the dinner party, it allows for some leeway for Sims being dumb as they are one to do.
9Painter Extraordinaire
For the Simmer looking to get rich quick, investing in an easel is the way forward. While this aspiration is a pretty standard one in terms of skill building aspirations, it’s centered on one of the most lucrative hobbies inThe Sims 4.
Choosing this aspiration also makes painting just a bit easier and ensures Sims are more likely to craft high-quality pieces of art. This is a great choice for beginners to The Sims 4 or for the Simmer who just wants to make bank.
8The Curator
This aspiration is a great choice for Simmers engaging in a rags-to-riches challenge. So much of money-making in rags-to-riches is about running around the neighborhood and collecting as many things as possible.

This not only incentivizes players to forage for collectibles but choosing this aspiration actually makes them more adept at finding high-quality items, which can usually sell for more. Aspiration points can be used to make a rags-to-riches a whole lot easier, so this aspiration is a great choice for any Simmer engaging in this challenge.
7Good Vampire
While its pretty standard for most supernatural packs to come with aspirations, this one stands outfrom the other vampiric offerings. While it still invites players to experiment with the pack, it also poses a significant challenge.
Although it’s much easier to default to Strauss’s less than ideal ways of fulfilling thirst, the Good Vampire aspiration invites Simmers to try something a little different and maybe have a heart (for once). This aspiration may be a good choice for players who have already experimented with vampires and want to have a new experience with the same pack.
6Strangerville Mystery
While the Strangerville pack can be pretty polarizing at the best of times, the actual gameplay of uncovering a small town’s big secret is pretty fun. For players looking to dive into everything Strangerville has to offer, possessions and all, this is the way forward.
This aspiration will guide players through everything they need in order to be prepared to face the Mother Plant. Having a Sim follow this mystery with this aspiration makes for an intriguing story and players will be rewarded for their time and dedication.
5Public Enemy
This dastardly aspiration puts a nice twist on the usual Simming experience and invites players to be absolute menaces to their neighbors. Sims with this aspiration are just the worst, but they don’t care, they like it that way.

This aspiration is bound to pull some Simmers out of their comfort zone and challenge them to play the game in a way they don’t usually play it. For an extra challenging experience, players can choose to give their Sim redeeming qualities like making them a good parent, or they can just choose to be bad through and through.
4Big Happy Family
This aspiration is for the long game. While there are some aspirations out there that can be completed in one life stage, this one will require some patience, but it’s worth it in the end. For the family-oriented Sim and Simmer, this aspiration is a great choice to really explore everything family life has to offer.
With the recent Growing Together expansion, Sims with this aspiration will have even more nuanced family dynamics. This aspiration is perfect for Simmers starting a legacy challenge.
