Get lost in The Sims 2: Castaway screens


If there's one thing we don't like about The Sims 2: Castaway, it's the game's lack of modern convenience. Yes, we get that they're castaways, but we can't tell you how many times we've become frustrated with our little Sim, only to take our aggression out by trapping them in a structure lacking doors and having them keep using the toaster oven until a fire broke out. Hey, don't look at us like we're monsters?

Anywho, check out these new screens with us and be sure to take part in our random, yet completely appropriate, screaming of "Wiiiiiiilson!"

So, can I cause one of my Sims to become obsessed with unearthing an underground hatch? Will I discover a rival group of Sims on the other side of the island who have access to a submarine? Are there flashbacks to meaningful moments from the other Sims games?

Sad, I know.

Unless this game has a smoke monster and one Sim pushing a button every 108 minutes it's not worthy imo. And what's with the monkey thing... would you enter 77 for a monkey? I don't fucking think so.
