But you need the help of Higgins the Orangutan to build you a garden to grow the ingredients needed. Sandi, who stays on the Bay, can cook it for you, but only after you've found the right ingredients. For example, Crazy Carl who lives in the caves will share his treasure with you, but only after you fetch him some fish stew. I'm glad they included it, because your dude moves way too slow to not have such a feature.Įach section has a person (or animal) you'll run into that you have to converse with and find out what goal it is you need to complete for them. Luckily, there's a quick route feature and all you have to do is pick the area you want to go to and you'll be there. There's a lot of going back and forth between areas. You'll have to complete goals in each area to unlock the next. There are different areas to explore but they're not all accessible at first. Shake the trees to collect bananas and coconuts so you don't starve to death. Your first objective is to find food and build yourself a shelter. Castaway is a simple game that throws in some complex mechanics so you don't get too bored too quickly. Your main objective is to get off the island, but you'll have to complete some objectives and keep yourself fed and sheltered while you figure out what you have to do next. You play as, well, you, stuck on an island after an accident sends you and other travelers into the brink and floating to safety on a deserted island.
So is it better to just let yourself drown than swim for shore? And so EA keeps the train rollin' all night long (c'mon, who's an old Aerosmith fan?) with Sims 2 Castaway for your mobile phone.
