First off, I am a huge fan of the Sims 2 Games, and own almost all the expansion packs.
When I first played the game, I didn’t stop until I finished the Castaway Story completely through. I couldn’t get enough. I then created my own characters to play the game through, hoping (maybe) that something may be different or that I would be faced with a different challenge… Although this game is incredibly fun and creative, I do with there were more story variations, or different characters to chose from who would then bring their own stories to the game.
Overall, a fun game, but I don’t know how long it was meant to last…

this game is pretty cool. although it doesn’t have some of the cheat codes available that The Sims 2 but its still pretty fun. The newer features like clothes, hair, head types to decor and furniture are all a nice touch. it runs well on my Macbook.

I thought the game was fun! I like the part that you can have more than one player. So if you want to make up a story but then want to do another one but don’t want to screw up the first you can add a new player. That was helpful!

I had alot of fun with the Sims Castaways Stories mode! A nice change from the typical Sims. Fun game, wish there were more stories! Recommended!

I’m a huge Sims fan (1 and 2). I have all EPs available for Mac. I play Castaway on my laptop when I’m away from home and need a fix. The similarities to the original game are also slightly different, making Castaway feel familiar yet new at the same time: orangutans as pets, cooking on campfires, and other sim-items made from bamboo, etc. Big fan.
