As a Sims character in the game My Sims, the mission of the player is to resurrect a decrepit abandoned town by luring back residents and businesses into this run-down neighborhood. The player needs to increase the town’s population little by little until the entire town looks progressive and occupied again. The player needs to rely on Nunchuck controls to do direct-movement game play in the Wii-format version. The Wii Remote is reserved for object movement and building only. Those used to earlier Sims video games may remark that the My Sims characters look like Japanese anime characters and not like the earlier Sims characters in other titles.
MySims is a fun game mostly for youngsters. The story of MySims is that you come across a vacant abandoned town that needs to be rebuilt. The town’s Mayor helps you build your house and a workshop and then you are free to do what you want. You can discuss with random people, build things in your workshop, and even build houses for new residents. Together with building houses you’ll be doing interior designing items like chairs, beds, ovens, etc. Whenever somebody moves in you build them a house, ask them what they want to be built, and then go build it in your workshop. Building things in your workshop will keep the fun going. Though it is simple, the visuals are good. The game is sunny with a playful mood. The cartoons presentation in the game stand for the silly and weird happenings in and make The Sims seem more reasonable. Gender is not important. You don’t have to choose your sim’s sex, and you can freely mix male and female hairstyles, eyes, mouths, and outfits. Construction is simple, based on a diverse collection of boxes and bric-a-brac that you can drag about using the Wii Remote. When you pick up a piece of flair for your structure, blue dots will appear to show where you can actually place them. There are several different-themed sets of building blocks that you can choose from and you will also earn blueprints for more ornate furniture. MySims is a weird but fun game.
See lessThe game is very simply said not a "The Sims, Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon" hybrid dream but regrettably a (too) fast finished, very streamlined, very simplified version of the Sims, where you can grow and hug ghosts. That counts for something right? A more ambitious goal and an extra six months, year perhaps, and this could have been the hybrid dream. Read more
MySims is cute and very simplistic. There’s not much to it, little replay value, and after a couple of hours, you’ll feel like you’ve seen it all. On one level, you haven’t – there are lots to find. On a more practical level, you’re right. Saccharine sweet as this Sims Lite is, it’s definitely more for kids and Wii owners than fans of the main series. Read more
It’s one in the morning, my eyes are bloodshot, I’m starting to see things in pairs and my hands are cramped. My body is telling me to shut everything off and go to sleep, but my brain (what’s left of it at this point) begs to differ. Don’t worry, I’ll hit the hay in a minute; I just need to finish making this table. If I don’t, then my kitchen will look unfinished. Just need to make one more thing then it’s quitting time, I promise this time. Ok… just... Read more
Bring out the metal detector and you never know what you'll find. MySims originally launched on the Nintendo Wii, the first attempt by EA to port its mega-cash cow franchise The Sims for a console audience. The fact that we're now getting a PC port of the Wii game based on the hit PC franchise is confusing enough, but add the fact that MySims came out around the same time as the Wii/Nintendo DS follow-up, MySims Kingdom , and it's enough to set your head spinning even...

Playing Monopoly Junior is one of my most joyous childhood memories. I remember shuffling the box out from under my twin-sized bed, unfurling the rectangular carnival-themed board, and clasping the flimsy paper fives and ones between my small hands. Compared to the ubiquitous standardized Monopoly , this pint-sized version was minimal and sugar-coated, but that’s what made it short and sweet. Hopscotching my way around the board, I could see a fireworks display for two... Read more

This title is mostly geared for children. It feels very much like the Lego gaming franchise, which I really enjoy. I found Animal Crossing and Harvest Moon on the GameCube more appealing with more variety. Thankfully these titles still play on the Wii. The issue I have with My Sims is that your only goals are limited to constructing objects and collecting essences. This game is streamlined in that Sim management and the social aspects of previous Sim titles are missing. Read more
I am really angry that I spent money on this product. I loved the original computer version and expected this to be the same, but unfortunately it is nothing like the original. The graphics are characters are sickeningly cutesy and the game itself is really difficult to navigate. The user has to point to objects and put them in certain places (as ordered to do by the obnoxious "mayor" character), but it is impossible to get them in the right places. Trying to "build"...

My sims was the first game I've ever gotten for the wii (besides wii sports with came with my wii). Before I bought it I did play it at my cousins house and I couldn't put the wii remotes down! It was so fun to play- The characters are adorable, you get to build an old town to its former glory, and make many cool things out of your workshop. You move into a rundown town consisting of a town hall, a flower shop, a hotel, and two town houses. The objective of the game is... Read more
