EA, if you’re reading this: make another spin-off. It shows the series still has plenty of room. I previously wrote about The Sims Medieval too, but we’ve not had anything similar to these since the Sims 4 has come out. The Sims: Castaway Stories is the first game in the entire series that really feels different despite being based on the same engine and principles. It was great fun, and I miss these silly side games a lot. It was kind of a slimline Sims game, and it was missing a lot of things, but it also added a few new items that were originally from older Sims 2 expansions, like swimming in the sea, a few different animals, and weather, all now Sims staples. A small, but enjoyable and notable, difference was “buy mode” was renamed to “barter mode” which is fitting. Your sim was thrown onto a deserted island and had to fend for themselves (albeit with you to help them). But Castaway stories? I couldn't get a Sim stranded on an island in TS2 even if I tried really hard.
Life stories? Fine, but I could do that in The Sims 2 already. This game allows you to have multiple 'profiles' either for playing story. We only support DOS unRAR and not lame WinRAR, so you need to find your own save location.

I’ve chosen to write about Castaway Stories over the other two entries because I really enjoyed the completely new premise of the game. The Sims: Castaway Stories (PC DVD) Brand New Environment to Play In - Play exciting new story adventures as a castaway on a desert island who needs to survive. The Sims(TM) Castaway Stories' We can not include the full path in the RAR file because that 'The Sims(TM)' is done with weird font characters that do not work in DOS. For me, though, these Sims Stories games were the answer to my lack of Sims Urbz. These came out around the same time as The Sims 2, as a range of Sims games that were made to be more laptop friendly.
The Sims Castaway Stories was one of The Sims Stories series (which included Life and Pets as well as Castaway).
