This summer, twelve famous faces will enter the most famous house in Sunset Valley. Little do they know is that they will be about to face the most challenging and difficult Big Brother yet. With unique twists and turns along the way, nothing is as it seems..





In this star-studded lineup, actors, singers and well known personalities will rub shoulders under one roof for one long summer of fun. The housemates will be under the control of the all-seeing Big Brother and at the mercy of the voting public.

One by one, each housemate will compete in tasks, nominate each other and ultimately be evicted. Who goes and who stays to win is completely up to you!

With the launch date rapidly approaching [TBC], information about the structure of gameplay involved has been released.

*note, times mentioned below are relative to the gameplay within the Sims universe [unless explicitly stated with a real life time and date]. There will, however, be a real-life voting period during each round of gameplay to allow viewers to contribute to the actions within the house.



Every Monday to Wednesday during their ten week stay inside the Sim Big Brother House, housemates will have the opportunity to gain status within the house by completing a task. For three whole days, housemates will have the chance to boost their skills in a particular subject area. The housemate who boosts their skill level most in the required time frame will become the Alpha Housemate.

Being the Alpha Housemate has its perks:
•*Selecting a number of Housemates to become 'Beta Housemates' (explained below).
•*Have access to the Rewards Suite until the end of the next Alpha Challenge.
•*Become Immune from the upcoming nominations process and eviction.
• Automatically compete in the Embargo Competition.
• Have Double Nomination Points to use for the week (explained below).



Beta Housemates are selected each week, by being the housemates with the strongest Sim Relationship with the current Alpha Housemate. By becoming a Beta Housemate, these housemates are ineligible to be nominated by the house for the upcoming week. They will have access to the Rewards Suite alongside the Alpha Housemate.



Each Thursday at 5pm, nominations will take place. Each housemate is eligible to nominate. By studying their current relationships with members of the house, every housemate will allocate six nomination points to three fellow housemates. Three points will be given to the person who has the weakest relationship with the nominating housemate, followed by two and one points for the next weakest relationships respectively. The three or more housemates with the most Nomination Points will face the Public eviction each week. [The Highlight Show will end with the Nominations being revealed to the housemates, allowing around 24 hours for the public to vote and make their choice to Evict in an online poll]



Every Friday at 9:30pm, Nominated housemates and the current Alpha Housemate will compete in the Embargo Challenge. This will take the form of an endurance task to test the housemates to the very limits. If the winner of the Embargo task is a nominated housemate, they will gain the power to remove their name from the evictee list, essentially saving them from eviction. However, if the current Alpha Housemate wins the challenge, the three nominees will remain against the public vote.



On Saturday evenings at 9:30pm, votes will close and the results of the eviction vote will be revealed to the house. The housemate with the most Public votes to evict will leave the Big Brother House immediately.



At present, ten celebrity housemates are in hiding. Two housemates have yet to be chosen to enter the Big Brother House. This is where the public will have their first taste of power. Simply comment below with the name of a celebrity that you want to enter the Sim Big Brother House. All suggestions will be entered into a random draw and TWO (one male and one female) will be selected. These celebrities will become genuine Celebrity Sim Big Brother Housemates and will be eligible to win! Who goes in? YOU Decide!

Suggestions for the housemates will close on Sunday 29th June 2014 at 7pm GMT, and the winners will be announced shortly after.

Big Brother will get back to you.
