MySims Kingdom (Wii)
Jun 6th
Finished stuff off for the rocket launch, then helped set up a music festival which, of course, involved building a log cabin and herding crabs. My previous impressions still stand – great graphics, great writing, great fun, some collection parts are just a little tedious, but not so much that they spoil the game.

My wife was playing this when I got home last night, so I went and had a lovely bath and read the Fortean Times. When I got out, she stopped playing and I had a go. It really is very good. I find collecting essences a little tedious at times, but that’s my only complaint. The rest is great. It looks gorgeous, it controls well, there’s enough scope for my own creativity even at this early stage and the writing is genuinely good.

This arrived from Lovefilm at the weekend. My wife will be playing it to completion before we send it back, but I’d decided not to play it, what with having Demon’s Souls etc. However, after seeing her play it, I couldn’t help but give it a go. It’s charming, funny, looks great and feels a lot more technically solid that the original MySims game. I did the tutorial, then went to an island full fo cowboys… and a pizza chef. Hilarity ensued, along with gentle collecting and building fun. It’s an easy game to play, not just in terms of difficulty, but because it’s got a lovely atmosphere and is always giving you new toys to play with. It’s a generous game and genuinely funny, so it actually makes a perfect dessert after a main course of Demon’s Souls.
