The mug also includes other witch-themed designs, such as a black cat and a broomstick. Many people love this mug for its unique and edgy design, as well as its association with Halloween and witchcraft.

Sims 100 Baby Challenge: 10 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started
The other day I rediscovered this post that I had written way back in October 2021, forgotten, alone and gathering cyber dust in my drafts folder. I was going to delete it but then I thought I may as well share it to tie off my The Sims 4 100 baby challenge posts, even if I never finished it.
The 100 baby challenge is a challenge in the sims where the goal is to have a female Sim give birth to 100 babies in as few generations as possible, if you’re interested then you can see rules of the challenge here. I started the challenge because I love The Sims but I sometimes got stuck in a routine of crafting the same storylines or the same kinds of sims. This challenge helps you to discover new ways of doing things, aspirations and traits you may not normally use, and gives you an end goal. It turned out to be a really good way of experiencing a game that I’ve played since I was a child in a totally new way and while I didn’t finish it I learned a lot and would definitely consider doing it again, I would recommend it to any Sims fan and if that’s you then it’s your lucky day because I have made a list of tips and tricks to make your challenge a little bit easier:
- Play it on a computer. This is the main point for me. Trying this on my PS4 was a challenge in itself. The slow loading time was particularly painful, even just going into build mode took forever. It also glitched like crazy, and not the funny kind of glitches that make the game more entertaining, the annoying game crashing ones.
- Make sure you have a lot of expansion packs. You will be playing this for a LONG time and there’s just not enough variety in the base game to make it interesting. I have City Living (my favourite, if you could only get one I’d say this), Seasons, Island Living, Vampires, Magical Realm and Jungle Adventure… Honestly, it’s still not quite enough in my opinion, the things that make these packs initially interesting become tired quite fast in this challenge but it’s the little things that make it better; like the City having events on every so often, new aspirations and traits, the seasonal events, and just having different places to go… I’d like to get more but I can’t justify buying any more on PS4 when I know I’d enjoy it more on PC.
- Give your lot the ‘Ley Line’ trait. This trait makes the chances of your sim having twins higher. I didn’t realise it was allowed until quite late and it made getting that baby count up way easier. It does make baby management harder though because twins are an absolute nightmare, especially if you have twin toddlers and then twin babies come along, that feels like a survival game rather than Sims. Choose other handy lot traits as well, you can have up to 3.
- Use the aspiration rewards. I forgot that these were available and allowed, the only ones you can’t use are the ones that extend your Sims’ life.
- Use the gallery. I am so bad at making houses but there are loads already made by much more patient and talented sim players especially for the challenge. It’s also a good source of handsome Baby Challenge Dads. Just search #100babychallenge to find loads of pre-made stuff.
- Stream, don’t blog. If you’re a blogger and you’re going to write about this it may not provide you with as much inspiration as you would think. The initial part of the challenge, when all the experiences were new and it was that much harder because there was no money, was fun to write about and share but the longer I played, the more repetitive the gameplay was and the less there is to share. In hindsight maybe just doing a couple of review-style posts about it rather than ‘episodes’ would have been better. It would be more fun and sociable to stream though and then people watching can suggest where to meet people, what to do, baby names, etc.
- Apparently, if you give a key to ghosts they don’t wreck your stuff. I wanted to have a morbid little graveyard of my previous matriarchs but their ghosts haunted my sims and made them scared and started breaking things. Unfortunately, the more generations you go through the more ghosts you get and eventually I had enough and released their spirits. I never got to test out the key theory because unfortunately there seemed to be a glitch where the dialogue option ‘give residence key’ seemed to just disappear so… Not tested but highly recommended in case it’s true and still available.
- A-students age up. All through the first generation I had forgotten that once your children and teens become A students they get to have their birthdays early, and once I remembered that the child turnaround was much easier and faster.
- Don’t bother with high chairs. The toddlers just end up trapped in them because your Matriarch will be so busy doing other stuff. Toddlers can grab food off the side so just have your Sim make a meal and the Todds can just grab it and go sit on the sofa to eat (follow me for more excellent parenting tips).
- Have fun with it. It’s surprisingly easy to get into a routine but don’t be afraid to let your Sim leave the house occasionally and try some different things, let her go on dates and explore different areas. She deserves it!
In the end I managed 3 matriarchs and 38 children before I gave up. I would definitely attempt it again but I would consider waiting for Sims 5 so that I could buy it on PC rather than power through on the playstation.
Would you play the 100 baby challenge? Have you played it? If so, what was your experience?

Reviews for "Dark Delights: The Malevolent Witch Rae Dunn Mug Collection"
1. Jane - 1/5 - I was so disappointed with the Malevolent witch rae dunn mug. First of all, the color of the mug was different from what was shown in the picture online. It looked dull and faded. The writing on the mug was also poorly done, with some letters barely visible. Additionally, the material felt cheap and flimsy. Overall, it was not what I expected and definitely not worth the price.
2. Mike - 2/5 - The Malevolent witch rae dunn mug fell short of my expectations. While the design was appealing, the quality was less than impressive. The mug chipped easily, even with careful handwashing. On top of that, the handle felt awkwardly placed and uncomfortable to hold. I also found it to be quite small - it could barely hold a standard-sized cup of coffee. All in all, I expected better craftsmanship and durability from this product.
3. Laura - 2/5 - Unfortunately, I have to say that the Malevolent witch rae dunn mug did not live up to its hype. The size of the mug was smaller than what I anticipated, and the material felt too thin and fragile. Moreover, the print on the mug seemed faded and poorly executed. I was also disappointed with the packaging - it arrived with no extra padding or protection, which resulted in a chipped handle. Overall, it was not a satisfying purchase and I wouldn't recommend it.
4. Mark - 1/5 - I regret buying the Malevolent witch rae dunn mug. The quality was extremely poor, with visible cracks on the surface after just a few uses. The glaze on the mug looked worn out and scratched, giving it an unpleasant appearance. The handle was also poorly attached and felt unstable. To top it off, the seller's customer service was unresponsive when I tried to address these issues. This was a complete waste of money and I will definitely not be purchasing from them again.
5. Sarah - 2/5 - The Malevolent witch rae dunn mug was a letdown for me. The mug arrived with a slightly different design than the one advertised, with the colors looking faded and muted. The size of the mug was smaller than what I expected and could barely hold a decent amount of liquid. The quality of the material feels cheap and not as durable as I had hoped. Overall, it was not worth the price and I would advise against purchasing it.
