Life simulators are some of the most popular types of video games out there, largely due to Electronic Arts' The Sims franchise, which was the brainchild of legendary game creator Will Wright and developed by his own studio, EA Maxis.

The Sims 2 went on to become one of the most popular PC titles of all time, managing to sell huge amounts of copies both in its initial release and in the many expansions and add-ons that were launched after that point.

In order to further capitalize on the success of the franchise, EA Maxis decided to release the title on other platforms like the Nintendo DS or Game Boy Advance. Set to use the features of the hugely popular Nintendo DS to the fullest, like the touch-screen or the Wi-Fi connection, the DS edition of The Sims 2 was launched on October 24, 2005.

Soon after it, a lot of console spinoffs were released, with the third one being The Sims 2: Castway, which appeared for the Nintendo DS, the Wii, the PlayStation 2, the PSP and mobile phones on October 22, 2007, in North America and on October 26, the same year, for Europe.

This game starts with the player constructing the crew of a ship, which then passes through a storm and is shipwrecked on a tropical island. The Sim of the player must then try to survive on the island and reach others in the vicinity in order to find his/her other friends and uncover more mysteries about the three islands.
