I tried this game, it is quite a bit different from the regular sims. I don't care for the way you have to move around at all. I still have not figured things out and have had it for several months now.

- Fun, but quick
I was pretty excited to try out this newest edition of Sims Life Stories. I wasn't disappointed in the game play, but the overall story seemed pretty short.

Good things:
Intuitive controls.
Easy navigation.
Interesting story line.

Not so good things:
Installing in VISTA turned into a frustration that I didn't need.(READ THE MANAUL) I am so accostumed to things just loading seamlessly that this was perplexing at first. DUH! READ THE MANUAL.
Although the story line held my interest it seemed much shorter than the other versions of this game.

Overall:
Pretty good. Buy it used or on sale.

- Tell Me A Story
I was thrilled when I saw that Sims was going to make a Sims game with directed story. I couldn't agree more with M. Robbins. I too owned all the Sims1 and most Sims2 games and have spent countless hours downloading custom content for each and while I'd have a great time creating my families and making and decorating new houses once I got to actually running their lives I'd get bored. What it boils down to is they go to work and come home and have to keep themselves and their house and their relationships well tended and after awhile it just became boring drudgery, much like real life at times. With Castaways you get a whole new experience while having the familiar layout and format of the Sims brand. My FAVORITE part of the Life Stories series is the fact that we have translations of some stuff. No more one picture thought bubble to give you nothing more interesting than the gist of the category of interest at a particular time. We get actual sentences IN ENGLISH. Don't get me wrong, I love Simlish [and its still there in Castaways]but its really nice to finally see exactly what our hero/heroine is thinking/feeling at a particular moment. I like having a direction to go and the anticipation of how it will all work out. Perhaps I'm just not the most creative person on the planet, but I found most of my families' stories turning out about the same. They found a mate, got married, got jobs, had kids, lost or changed jobs, got old and eventually died. ho hum. Heck, I found myself throwing in an affair of one sexual orientation or another more often than not just to spice it up somehow! So yeah, thrilled with Castaways. I'm having a great time exploring my new island home.

- Great game- could even be longer
The game is really fun. I love the graphics and story mode. This is the best Sims Story so far. The only negative was the story mode didn't last long enough. I like to try and accomplish goals with an agenda. Free play is fun but I like the structured play better. It was fun to design the huts. It is a little different from the traditional decorations and furnishings in past sims, since this is island themed and you live in a hut or outside. You gather resources instead of making money like other games. The story mode is a little adult oriented because your main goals are to build a raft and find a mate but it is fun and entertaining. It even has a little mystery suspense side to it. There is also only one story mode so it is not like past Sims games were the girl's story is different than the guys story. As with all Sims it takes a while to load, but I'm used to that I guess. If it was faster and longer it would be one of the best games ever made. It is really worth the price since it has just about everything the full version Sims games have and a great story mode. It is also a lot better than Sims Story Pets which had lots of design flaws and froze up a lot. Besides freezing for a second or two after loading a couple of times this game is flawless.

- Best Sims Story
I really enjoyed playing this game. I completed the guided portion in two evenings. Unlike the first two, there is only one guided story to complete but you can chose if you want to play a male or female character. The story is the same for either character. This story was appealing and it held my interest for the whole time. I enjoyed the little mystery twist in this story which helped keep my interest up. I thought the guided stories in the first two Sim Stories were a bit lame.

The Castaway neighborhoods are interesting and a visual feast. The activities are fun. The objects and clothing are very interesting. The wild animals are a nice touch excpet for the fur on the Orangutan which is annoyingly bad. The fur on the leopard and hyaneas are quite well done.

This would be a fun game for an experienced Sim player. Someone new to the Sims might be a bit over whelmed since there is less hand holding with this game than the first Sim Story.

I did not experience any technical problems until I started adding other users. One I had just one user things went flawlessly. With the second user the game the game had moments were it seemed to hang or the images got "jumpy". When I exited the game, the problems had cleared up.
