Advantages: Child friendly

Disadvantages: Repepitive gameplay

The sims games seem to have been around on the market for a long time now and are constantly developing and improving. This is the second of the mainstream sims games to be bought out onto the nintendo wii.

This is one of the first sims games I have seen that is really directed at the younger end of the spectrum. They have made everything far more straight forward, cuter and child friendly. There is much less to do of the tasks such as keeping the character happy and well fed. The game follows the concept of all the other sims games, whereby you live in an area and through the means of the game you fend for yourself, raise money to buy things, grow crops and befriend people. The emphasis in this is with interactive gaming, you have to work with and interact with the other characters in the kingdom, including animals and children. At the start of the game you pretty much follow it out of the box, following a relatively strict template but this losens up as the game progresses and you can really make it your own, building whatever sized and shaped buildings you want.

This version of the sims has a medievel twist to it as the name would suggest. The kingdom is run by one controller and there are several islands all incorperated into this kingdom. The islands all have different themes which is a great piece of variety in the game.

For some that want more action the game can appear to be quite repeptitive, as there are some 'chores' that you have to do almost daily to keep your sim happy, healthy, fed, water and well slept. For children this is a great addition to the sims catalogue.

Summary: Grow your own sims kingdom!
