CheatCC says: "Last year's MySims was a very cute, although quite generic title. It basically took the established Sims formula, made it a little cuter, and then added a construction element. The gameplay gave players a lot of freedom but was sadly lacking in substance and had a few technical issues. But overall, it was an above average title and had a lot of potential as the basis for a new Sims spin-off series. This fall, the first follow-up to MySims has been scheduled for release: MySims Kingdom. The good news is that it looks like the developers are really listening to the criticisms of the first game and trying to make MySims Kingdom for the Wii and DS a more focused and fleshed out experience."
PBG plays MySims Kingdom for some unexplained reason. Is it really as awful as it looks? Well...yes.

Green Pixels: Plunking down $50 for a brand-new game can be a gamble -- it's a lot of money to pay for something that you could end up hating. However, most games don't stay full-price for long, which is why we scoured the inventories of four major retailers (Amazon, GameStop, Target, Walmart) to find a slew of great titles that are now priced at just $20. For the cost of one freshly released game, you can buy two older titles and still have $10 left to spend on snacks. (And we all know the importance of snacks.)

RealGamer writes: "MySims Kingdom for the DS is very similar in principle to its Wii brethren, just scaled down. Instead of a host of different islands to explore and customise you have a single town that has undergone a massive upheaval due to someone stealing all the decorations?"
