7.0 Presentation
A cute, colorful style and great utilization of the Wii remote, but the title lacks depth. Load times are sometimes an issue, too.
7.0 Graphics
Stylized, but simple graphics and a variety of customization options. Game runs in 480p and 16:9, but the framerate occasionally drops (for no good reason).
6.0 Sound
The Sim voices match their respective characters, but the music is forgettable.
7.0 Gameplay
Fun as an alternative to Animal Crossing. Easy to play. Great building mechanic. Uses Wii
remote well. But you keep doing the same thing and the game is shallow.
7.0 Lasting Appeal
No multiplayer mode of any kind is a bit baffling. Single-player game will keep you busy for a respectable amount of time, though.
