Would NOT Recommend
Being an ardent Simmer, I pre-ordered this game and was so excited about it. That quickly changed when I started playing it. It is certainly not worth the price! Problems: 1. The game is EXTREMELY glitchy. 2. The graphics look like back in the day Playstation I graphics. 3. The age progession should be able to be turned off, as I didn't get to accomplish what I needed or wanted to. 4. My sim was watching t.v. and couldn't get up from the sofa, and died of hunger. 5. No firemen to put out house fires. My stove caught on fire, and sim did too, and died. Why are fire alarms needed? 6. People walk through people, cars jam up into each other. 7. There was a logjam of people at the entrance to the restaurant, and they ended up dying. 8. You find yourself "mourning" and don't know why until you figure out that there are various tombstone markers around town from Sims that have died, that you have to put in your inventory and place them at the cemetery. 9. Once you choose an outfit/hair-- you cannot change them. 10. You cannot build homes. 11. Books- I have no idea how to read certain ones (i.e., cooking) once I've purchased them. Once they are placed in the bookshelf, you cannot choose a particular book. You end up reading whatever is there. Therefore, there were certain recipes that I couldn't make, 'cause I couldn't choose the particular book. 12. I purchased trees for my home, and placed them around the house, and the trees end up showing through the inside of the house. I am so sorry I purchased this game. Castaways for Wii was 10X better! EA should be ashamed of themselves for putting out such a substandard product! I will never purchase a Sim Wii game again!!
