 My 9 year old loves this game October 3, 2007

If you're considering this for your kid. Go for it. It will keep him/her busy for hours on end. You'll have to drage him back to the real world. My 15 year old is a Sims fanatic & couldn't help but give it a try (after the little one fell asleep late Saturday night). The teenager reported that it is a fantastic game, but probably best suited for the 12 & under crowd. She compared it to Animal Crossing & Harvest Moon - two games that she loved as a "kid"!
 Not so good October 2, 2007

I too, was excited about buying this game. It's not even close to what I expected it to be. It moves really, really slow. The interactions you have with town people are boring. You only have so many emotions to choose from. With PC Sims when you make someone mad,you get a little giggle out of it, with this version you "have" to make friends to earn $$. I feel like I'm forced to get along with everyone, or I won't make it farther in the game.
I'm sure if I stick with it, maybe something will amaze me. Like when I get enough cash and can buy this mansion. But getting there is like torture, lol.
It's nothing like AC, not by a long stretch. AC you have a lot more freedom.I played this game a total of 3 days. I've been playing AC for a year now, and have yet to put it away. I agree, the Wii version has to be where all the fun is, its certainly not this one.
Meh. September 30, 2007

So, just like everyone else, I was extremelly excited to try this game out since I'm a HUGE fan of Animal Crossing. And sadly, this game very much dissapointed me. Animal Crossing is SO much better in many different ways. I just hope the Wii version is way better. Unless you have TONS of time on your hands and don't mind a VERY slow moving game, then this game is for you. You can't personalize your town like they advertise (perhaps in the Wii version you can). But I wouldn't suggest buying the DS version, if you have a Wii, the Wii version is the way to go. I was hoping the game was Wifi like AC, but the only way you can play in someone elses town is if they are in the same room with you with another DS. -snore-
The perfect blend of The Sims and Animal Crossing September 27, 2007

I think this is a great game, the perfect blend of The Sims and Animal Crossing. It is very enjoyable. I am disappointed that you can't build houses like in the WII version, but other than that it really lives up to everything I've heard about it. The mini games that I've got so far are fun. It is easy enough to earn money (unlike some of the Sims games) to buy the things you need. All in all it is very cute and fun also.
 Disappointing. September 27, 2007

I wish I had time to do a thorough review for this game, but unfortunately, my time and my frustration does not allow.
Like many other people, I was completely excited about this game. A cross between Animal Crossing and The Sims? How could I not be!? The truth though, is that this game is victim to false advertising. All the cool things you heard about or saw in commercials, is only in the Wii version of the game. The DS version of the game is nothing more than a glorified mini game game. And the mini games aren't even very fun. You will continue to search around your town to find something to do or a reason for your character to go out and interact with the nameless random people in the town, but there just isn't any reason to.
This game is lacking on all levels, and I am disappointed in EA for not at least sprucing this up to the same interaction level that Animal Crossing has
