Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Bought for Daughter but got addicted!
I got this for my 6 yr. old daughter but the building system was too complicated for her, so I started playing and got HOOKED! I don't know how many hours of my life were wasted away to this game.

-Highly customizable world and characters. Great if you are a customizing junkie. No one's world will look the same.

-Not like regular Sims games (which I can't stand). You don't sit around waiting for your Sim to do things, you have set goals to accomplish.

-The building system with the WII controller was very hard to get used to. Sometimes it would take me forever just to get the block to move into the right place. I hope they worked on the spacial issues with the sequel MySims Kingdom.

- Your arm will hurt from having to hold up the controller to point to the screen.

-The music is repetitive and may annoy you. Not any worse then the freecreditreport.com songs though.

-MY FIRST COPY HAD A BUG. And I had to start over again with a new disc I exchanged. I think it is rather rare, on the game forum only one other person had the same problem.





Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Positive family oriented game - no blow em up & kill em
Santa brought this game for my then 9 year old son, who is a big fan of the fighting games - Star Wars, Indiana Jones, etc. Santa thought he should try something different. He's gotten to a 4-star town with over 40 hours of play. He enjoys hanging out with the virtual friends like DJ Candy and Travis and dancing with them and playing music. And building furniture that he wants to give his residents, not just items they ask for.

We decided to check it out too, so my husband and I sat down to play. We're in our forties and the gaming revolution occurred after we were older than the target age of the industry - so we've missed the boat in that regard. However, we thoroughly enjoy this game. It is goal oriented (something we're trying to teach my son) and we find it fun. I've achieved 5-star status after about 22 hours and my hubby is right-now a 4-star - rapidly approaching 5-star - town.

The load times get longer the farther into the game you get and this is something EA really needs to work on. The load time issues is what brought this game down to an overall rating of 4 from us.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good game but not great
Though I like this game but its not too great in comparison to other Sims games.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - fun but...
This game is really fun but it can get repetitive. In my opinion it's kind of easy. I only have one problem though...how do you find rock essences? thanks if you can help!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Repetative, but okay
Definitely not what I was expecting from a Sims title. It gets very repetative and there seems to be no big goal in sight, like there is with most of the DS and GBA titles. I think they could've done a much better job, and I hope My Sims Kingdom has a lot of changes.
