You have control over the occupation, body type and personality of your Sim. Castaway has a fairly detailed Sim editor, although as expected, it is not quite as detailed as what you would find on the full-fledged consoles. The first task you will have to perform is the creation of your Sim. Because you have to bounce between island regions fairly often, it's annoying to have to frequently reposition your camera to your favorite spot. When moving your Sim from one island region to another, the camera always resets to the default position. Overall, I found controls to be well-assigned and easy to use, although the camera control was lacking. Although not exceptional, the music and in-game sound effects work well to support the player's immersion into the story line. Unlike a lot of other titles, weather is used as more than just a visual effect in Castaway you will want to build a shelter to protect yourself and your possessions from deterioration. The often-busy visuals in Castaway are fairly decent and are reasonably easy on the eyes, although some of the smaller objects (coconuts, bananas, shells) will have you squinting a bit or waiting for the identification bubble to appear.
Unfortunately, Castaway is only a single-player game, so don't expect to find any multiplayer or Wi-Fi options. You can even learn advanced skills, such as farming and playing music. In the process, you'll learn to construct tools, shelters, clothes and even furniture. Although you will have numerous goals and tasks to accomplish, your main objective will be to find a way to be rescued. After addressing the more important aspects of survival - such as finding food, clothing and shelter - you will slowly start to improve your situation by trying to locate your missing friends. As the story unfolds, your Sim and friends are out enjoying a day of sailing when they encounter an unexpected squall that ends with your Sim waking up alone on an unknown island. The Sims 2: Castaway is the latest title from the wildly popular Sims franchise to reach the PSP handheld.
