Just Okay July 28, 2008

I think any game/movie you purchase for the psp will not disappoint graphically. This version is true to SIMs style. This is a Gilligan/Survival version of SIMs. You can create and alter appearance of your character during game play. I don't know how different this version from the PC version but you cannot fast fwd the boring waits. Your character disappears off your screen when sleeping. I do find it too repetitive collecting food and twigs. I have to say some of the pictures are too small to make out what is needed to make certain items so I haven't built my hut yet. Your limited with your camera view so it's hard to see spear fishing and it's basically hit or miss. I find it boring talking with chimps to increase your social status as I haven't progressed to finding my other shipmates. You do get island fever which is where the repetive play comes in. The game is fun for a SIMs game but in terms of length or returning to play it didn't hold my interest after the newness of the game wore off. So I gave it average mark.

This game is completely addictive and really good fun. Sometimes the camera can be a little frustrating and you definitely have to take advantage of the fastforward feature but overall it's a good game to just wander leisurely through.

I thought it was a bit complicated. I like the computer version of the simms better.

I ordered this for my daughters PS2, but didn't look at the small print when ordering, cause when I received it, it was for PSP. So just look closely when ordering, that's all.
