    I remember getting Urbz on the Nintendo DS for Christmas one year and trying to play it.
    I couldn’t figure out how to get a job, and I failed to successfully complete any of the ones I could find, so I watched as my little avatar starved in his shitty apartment after pissing in the corner because he couldn’t afford to pay basic utilities.

    I'll be honest, out of my thousands of hours of The Sims over the years, the spin offs have always been my most played games. Bustin out, Urbz and Castaway were the ones I had the most fun with, they never left my PS2.
    Especially Castaway. I loved creating stories in my head and playing them, I felt like I was in Lost or something.
    As well as the unique gameplay, I loved the buildings. Having to gather the materials to make them was a lot of fun, that sense of survival.
    This love for Castaway now translates into my love for games like The Forest, Conan Exiles or Valheim, even though they're nothing like the sims' focus.

    the "foreboding" atmosphere was what prevented me from playing this game as a kid, I quit when I found a skeleton in the forest lol

    I still play this on a monthly basis. I dont think ill ever discover every single recipe. Glad to see a fan covering it! Also played the Nokia version. The onslaught of Porgi fish will forever haunt me. Also as a fun fact, the PSP version has several exclusive features, like being able to dye your hair with more than 1 color.

    I adore the sims 2 story games and the sims medieval. It’s so fun, I would love to see more of these games. I played castaway stories when it was on Mac until it got removed from the App Store

  • @LillyPeppermint
    @LillyPeppermint Před 5 měsíci +9

    I played the DS version, i loved it, that physical is one of my favourites in my collection, but it always felt pretty cut down and like the experience was not as full. Im so excited for this series, the Sims Medieval is amazing and i feel there is so much to talk about there, in gameplay and lore!

    • @AnnekeNaseef
      @AnnekeNaseef Před 4 měsíci +1

      I got so stuck on the DS version. I never knew what went wrong, but I just couldn't get past some of the parts and gave up. Maybe it's worth revisiting?

  • @augustinesim1672
    @augustinesim1672 Před měsícem +1

    I absolutely loved this spin-off, especially for PlayStation. The islands, the music/sounds the crafting oh sweet nostalgia
    also, she straight got a shark out of thin air lmaoo
    that "sent Garfielia back to the mines" part got me deceased lol
    I wish they remastered this game...for ps5 or something

  • @LadyDaliena
    @LadyDaliena Před 5 měsíci +56

    I have so many amazing memories from the DS version (playing into the night with friends, the excitment at arriving at the third and largest island, the horror when we realized earthquakes were a thing) and the Castway Stories for PC. This video is a welcome surprise.
    Edit: Also, a future Sims Medieval video?! I love that idea, that's a game that goes to far with its humour that I've had to press pause to laugh at the absurdity of it. Only in Medieval could you have an NPC who's tragic backstory is that his parents got eaten by carnivorous chinchilas. Or kill someone with the objective of going Franknestien on them, only to have one of the heroes go ''Mhm, man that strangely looks like my brother. I haven't seen them in so long. What a coincidence''.

  • @crazigirl1011
    @crazigirl1011 Před 5 měsíci +7

    I played so much of this on the Wii. I was so sad when my sims were rescued because it felt too easy (then again I wasn't the one climbing a volcano). I was pleased when it allowed me to go back to keep playing. I was so frustrated with space in this game. Trying to decide where to put down shelter was always a nightmare. And young me was always upset i couldn't get my sims to woohoo because of course that was a priority 😂

  • @NerdyTimeLord
    @NerdyTimeLord Před 5 měsíci +3

    My sister and I would play this on the Wii. Every time there was an earthquake I would get really scared, run away from wherever I was, and stay away from it for a while. I didn't know it was random xD

    I owned the DS version when I was a kid, and was OBSESSED. This game was genuinely so much fun. Your OG upload already had me looking into emulators so I can play the Playstation version, excited to re-visit it!
    Also, overall, great video as always :D Looking forward to the next one!

    Can't believe Izzzyzzz got Scarlet Johannson for this video!
    But justice for Beast Slayer!
    The Garfelia madness ritual at the top of the mountain got me good, touche! Loving these in depth dives into niche and obsucre weird stuff, looking forward to the rest of the madness, if only because the passionate love and dry humour are super endearing

    I never finished the game, but I befriended all the castaways and all the chimps if I recall correctly!

    I have so many memories of going over to my friend's house when I was a kid just to play their Wii version of Sims 2 Castaway. We'd each make 3 Sims and usually give them either the most outlandish names and appearances, or try to make them stunning versions of ourselves 💅We would take turns playing, passing the Wii and nunchuck back and forth for a few hours, until we'd eventually go outside and reenact our play session on the trampoline (speaking fluent Similish the whole time!) I didn't know anyone else played this game so it was so fun to see you talk about it!

    • @xChaosFlower

    I was obsessed with a game called Lost in Blue which, from the sounds of it, is basically the anime adaptation of Sims Castaway. This is an irrelevant comment otherwise, I just wanted to interact for the algorithm. So looking forward to more Sims content from you!

    You know, now that I think about it, maybe the charisma skill is so your crew mates will actually be friendly towards you? Cuz I remember my crew mates were ALWAYS assholes to me, and it made me so upset lol 😂

    • @feykingjulian
      @feykingjulian Před 5 měsíci +2

      i remembered always being able to be friends with my crewmates after awhile - and i think you're right that it must be the charisma skill! i would always build one of the buddies you can have your sim talk to, before they reunited with any crewmates, so they wouldn't be lonely when there were no chimps around. this probably gave me a charisma boost i'd need before talking to the crew. so that'd be my advice to anyone starting a new Castaway game!

    The Sims Castaway on the ds is ironically what sparked my love of survival games as a kid. I would restart the game so many times since I didn't have access to any other survival games until I got Lost in Blue which since I was a kid I never managed to get past the tiger.

  • @NatsumeOpossum
