WE HAVE HIT THE 10K LIKES AND THE DUMBAS SURVIVAL VIDEO..... IS OUT NOW!!! CHECK THE CHANNEL FOR "I Survived A Night In The Bush After Playing Too Much Sims Castaway"

[@MontagueChevallier]

I miss this game so very much. It's so nostalgic. I am always upset the Sims franchise has lived past its creative era of different kinds of game play...

[@SuperKratosgamer]

Just play on a emulator.

[@heroiccombatengineer6018]

He's right it could even run on our mobile devices if you have no other choice 😂

[@White_Tiger93]

Shame EA and MAXIS abandoned the concept of having spin-off the Sims like this, it was a magical time for sims fans like myself. Playing on Playstation 2 was so comfy as hell, even on PC

[@stayuglyy]

*LIKING THIS VIDEO AND PEER PRESSURING U FOR MORE SIMS LORE*

[@Starrbean]

I DONT KNO NOTHIN BOUT THE LORE MAN I ONLY PLAYED THESE TWO GAMES

Man I loved this game when it came out. The survival genre basically didn't exist back then and nothing scratched the same itch as this for the next few years

[@mrartdeco]

I know!! It really satisfied the dream of surviving with nothing and crafting your way out..

[@DBT1007]

so is business management game..

[@69hikikomori]

My jaw dropped when he went off with the monkey bars

[@Starrbean]

I very nearly cut that part out too hahaha 😅

[@TheKidsAreSOnotOkay]

@@Starrbean That would’ve been a Greek tragedy.

[@nullusanxietas2379]

I think nearly every Australian child of a certain age played Sims 2 castaway. It scratched an itch. The kind you'd try and scratch by playing in the bush, and coming home covered in ticks. 😅

[@Starrbean]

WHYS EVERYONE TELLIN ME TO DO LORE VIDEO IDK A DAM THING ABOUT SIMS

[@lydiaezell6556]

learn.

[@noodle_Cx]

do a lore video

[@Kitty_Bones]

Honestly, I wouldn't mind to just hear your random theories about this game, or the Sims universe overall. I wouldn't really care if it's canon or not, as I'm pretty sure theres few things that are canon, that aren't just household stories, like Bella Goth disappearing in Sims 2, or storylines, like the one in Sims 4: Strangerville. Honestly, I just love hearing people' s theories and personal interpretations, like about for example the Landgraabs' lore, or why llamas are so relevant in the Sims universe.

[@imanis.8565]

PLAY THE SIMS URBZ U WONT REGRET IT

[@luichibug]

Just make it up lol

[@TDAbiber]

OK HEAR ME OUT! What if the sims are descendants of llamas? I mean, the cave painting was an alien giving the “sentience” to a llama and the insult to call someone’s mom a llama is a thing… so what if they are descendants of llamas instead of monkeys?

[@Starrbean]

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@thetiniestpirate]

Putting in my vote for sims medieval, that game is a heckin great time

[@dandytastic7465]

Omg yeeees I would love that subbing in case it happens!

[@knightofsolice1304]

Fr. I've put hundreds of hours into it since release 💀

[@Starrbean]

Definitely going to go for Sims Medieval at some point sooner than later

[@anastasiagault5229]

I played this game SO much as a child. It makes me so happy to see it's cult following. Loved the video!!

[@tristanthemighty]

Sims 2 was off the bat soooo ahead of its time, I remember playing the sims 2 all the time on my ps2, I really loved the building aspect and crafting aspect of the game, I wish we could get a remaster of the sims 2 tbh

[@IkaSenoritaz]

Just discovered your channel after watching the Strangest sims game you've never played video and your content is great! Just subscribed.

[@Starrbean]

Thanks sm! 🎉

[@DruggiePlays]

Yeah me too❤

[@manyyoumas]

its so good to see a resurgence of people playing my childhood game... i'm 24 and i still play this game in the same old ps2 i played as a kid HAHA (i was lucky we never sold it or anything). something funny, i didn't realize until years later as an adult, that the spearing mechanic, you have to click "spear" when the fish jumps up from the water - works every time. i remember thinking "aw this sucks, i never get fish" but now i do every time. its funny how you see things differently when you get older. also, the graphics used to be like, breathtaking to me LMAO but now they just put a corny smile on my face. this game also had a bizarre sense of eerieness and creepiness that modern sims games would NEVER even try for, not on the same level, imo

[@Twinsizedcatress]

This video should have more views simply based on that immaculate rap sesh

[@Starrbean]

WE HAVE HIT THE 10K LIKES AND THE DUMBAS SURVIVAL VIDEO WILL BE OUT SOON

[@Rakinn]

you're not a true kiwi if you don't do a catch n cook in the video

[@dinoteddy4842]

you better try and hit on one of them too.. you know, for realism >.>

[@DomiBorealis]

I loved The Sims Castaway as a kid. I had it on Playstation Portable back in the day (still do!) I pray for a new game similar to that, but I doubt EA will ever deliver. If an indie dev ever makes something like that, I’ll happily give them my cash, haha.

[@Starrbean]

The closest thing I could think of is like Stranded Deep or The Forrest but neither has multiple characters

[@wordydird]

Project castaway. I stumbled across some vids and tweets yesterday but it doesn't seem like it's near completion sadly

[@tschabow5608]

Imo green hell is great. You have to take care of balanced nutrition, hydration, sleep and health. You hunt, forage, build and explore, can tame and breed animals, make a fruit garden, on harder difficulties there is hostile environment (jaguar, natives)

[@visualknightmare6662]

Same here sims 2 had the best expansions.

[@cllover2584]

It feels really nice to watch someone play and talk about Sims 2 Castaways for the PS2, I rarely ever hear the game get mentioned at all. It was a big part of me playing video games in elementary school, I would play it with my dad. feelsgood

[@TheRunningComedian]

This game really really hints that getting off the island isnt the good ending. Because of the noise and misery that awaits your return. Also there is a final goal where it says get married and start a family but every time i tried it was always declined no matter what.

[@karla7344]

somehow you've covered the two sims games that influenced me the most growing up. i also never got to making that first raft

[@shayvez]

I loved this game so much … I got it the same Christmas I got my puppy. Sadly he passed away this summer aged 16. There was lots of having a German shepherd puppy asleep on a pillow on my lap while sitting in front of the tv playing this waiting on him waking up so I could play with him. I’m crying now but this is the best memories I wish I could go back to.

[@swagit4174]

My very first island survival sim ever! Even the gameplay is one of the most unique in the Sims series

[@MadRayne]

I really loved the survival aspect that they went with for this game. They nailed that era for all the Sims 2 versions tbh, each being unique and fun. I wish they'd make more!

[@Piddemannen]

I remember thinking back on this game years ago and thinking how in depth the survival was for a game of it's time

[@poseidon.-]

ahh.. such a nostalgic . thank you for upload mate. now im 38 yo, and the memories still bright about this game.

[@kitter5341]

you should play the ds version of sims castaways too! despite having the same name its a very different game, and i've only seen one other person cover it

[@toxicarina7535]

I loved the ds Version! It sadly doesn’t get the attention that it deserves :(

[@SheyDeCo]

Yes the ds version had such a fun story and gameplay

[@Saekaichan]

im getting a ds and this is one of the first games ill get again it was so much fun

[@kitter5341]

@@Saekaichan consider getting a 3ds if you can! they're ridiculously easy to homebrew so you can, eh, freely obtain nearly any game you'd like... legally, of course

[@Saekaichan]

i like the classic lite version i mostly grew up with and i believe you can do that for them too although it may be a bit more difficult. i also love the physical copies aspect. thank you for the advice! @@kitter5341

[@Lelsisla]

I just watched your the sims 2 ds video and subscribed and this dropped not even 10 min later! Love your videos!

Thanks! I put it out just for you hahaha

All these years later, and Sims 2 Castaway for the PS2 is my favorite Sims game.

Holy shit core memory unlocked. I played this so much on my DS and they had a version of it on it. It was amazing

[@mathewfurness4160]

Hearing the theme music was an unbelievable nostalgia trip. Thank you Australia Man for bringing this back to me and also for whatever tf was at 3:15

[@alexanderjamesaustin]

a core memory of this game is collecting a fuck ton of glass bottles and having no idea what to do with them all and then googling that I needed to go to the volcano to melt em down

[@dezunai305]

Great video! I absolutely love your sense of humour, seeing this game brings back so many memories as I used to play this game a ton as a kid can’t wait to see more from you.

[@Starrbean]

HOW THOUGH

This was my favorite game as a kid, and just like you, I also never even made it out of the first island 😭😭😭 When you unlocked a THIRD ONE???? shit was crazy fr fr

[@ThomasTournoys]

I absolutely loved this game as a child, I remember playing it the whole afternoon day after day, I never really found any other game that quite scratched the itch of a "castaway survivor/sim game" like this one, this was also my first The Sims game and since then I fell in love with the franchise, this video surely is very nostalgic to me

[@scottishdrunkard1845]

[@patagum8289]

Oh I loved playing Sims Castaway! I played it on the psp, and I'm glad that you were able to build that bungalow. I always had that issue where even if you removed every piece of furniture, the limit meter never went away (I don't know if it's an issue for other versions though), so I couldn't craft one. I heard that the PC version actually has more npcs to it, it's a way different experience.

[@MishShish]

I adore your talent in pig sound mimicking. The true gift from above! 🐷

[@Hammerheadcruiser]

Man, I loved this game as a kid. It was just so cosy and different. Sitting inside a shelter that I built on the beach, listening to the rain and the waves. Fantastic. However it looks way worse then I remember it being. Nostalgia vision strikes again
