The Sims 2 - DS Mooch

What's good for the goose is good for the gander, and just like its predecessor, the game is now expanding to the console market, with the Sims 2 rolling out across every current console. The DS is different from any other console, and as a result, it's been approached from a different angle for the new Sims 2 game. Instead of a house, you manage a hotel in Strangetown where your electronic denizens live while they pursue their dreams and aspirations.

You have control over relationships if you play it right - you can help your Sims make friends with each other, get them to socialise, encourage them when they're doing well, or calm them down when they get themselves in a tizzy. The game is fully 3D and full use is made of the DS's other unique features too. The system's internal clock means that there are different options open depending on the time of day you happen to be playing. You can use the microphone to make music or the touch screen to draw pictures which you can hang on the walls of the hotel. An intriguing variant on the Sims theme, and a good effort to make the most of the console.
