5 out of 5 stars A must for every Sims lover   July 16, 2008
I am use to playing The Sims 2 on the PC and when I got the wii as a gift I couldn't wait to play the Sims on it. I have not been disappointed. You have control over one play and it is up to you to collect supplies from the island to make shelters, to clothing to rafts. Each area gives you goals to meet and complete. I haven't had time to complete playing it as much as I would like and I find that it can be addictive once started. So I really need to make sure I have a lot of time to play. I have only just started down the video console route and so I am use to playing with a computer mouse and that is all, however I have found the controls very easy to master and have really enjoyed the challenges. I would recommend this to anyone who has loved the Sims or any other type of Sim game.


4 out of 5 stars Fun, but requires concentration!   April 24, 2008
I really like this game, but to play it, you have to be committed. Just when you think you have a good handle on everything, the game throws a spanner in the works. It has the typical Sims style with a cool 'Lost on a desert island' theme. If you like Sims, your going to like this one!


5 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Sims Game   March 31, 2008
As a long time fan of the sims series both on PC and Console, i must say that in my option The Sims 2 Castaway is the best of the console sims games. This game is similar to the other sims games in that you need to keep your sims needs up and make sure that they eat, sleep etc. however the great thing about this game is that it is so different from the other sims games both on the PC and Console. There is so much to do in this game that time flies. You could play this game for over 3 hours and not even realize it. One of the great things about this game is that your not stuck in a house going to work all the time. Instead your sim in on a island exploring, trying to find food, and build shelter. There is so much to do in this game and tons of items to collect (well resources). Even though I've done a lot in this game there is still a ton of other stuff that i haven't even tried yet. As with all the sims console games you have goals however the goals in Castaway are optional. As the game goes along you can unlock more stuff and discover more things. I give this game a 9.5/10.


2 out of 5 stars Don't be fooled   March 28, 2008

I bought Sims 2 Castaway with my X-mas $ in January. I was so excited after reading all of these great reviews. After about a week I was bored of it and just started playing the old games again. Sims 2 Castaway is a good game until you acctually start playing it a lot. You have to keep all of your Sim's stats up AND make friends. This game makes it seem like YOU are stranded on the deserted island. You get so bored. You can only play pn it for about 15 or 20 minutes at a time or you'll see what I mean.


5 out of 5 stars Totally Addictive!   January 9, 2008
I am totally addicted to this game. I play every evening and find something new to do every day! I think this game could go on for a long time and I really like that. It's not the same thing over and over like other games. You play and beat them once and you know what to do. Castaway can be whatever you make it!
