MySims Cozy bundle Nintendo Switch

MySims will bring back some fond childhood memories for many, this Switch game is a remake of the Wii version. A quiet and pleasant game to sit down with. Recommended for all ages and an ideal gift throughout the year.

I've always enjoyed playing the original MySims for the Wii, and the disc was so damaged that I was pleasantly surprised by the new edition. They've also added new things, such as outfits, characters and a large 'garden' where you can build yourself. The game runs smoother than the original, with fast reloads and menu switches.

And yet it feels like a cash grab that little effort has been put into. No bug fixes, no/little modernized UI or extra options to make the game more manageable (such as keeping track of discoveries). And the new, enormous garden with all kinds of new lots cannot be used to settle more characters, so you don't even have room for all the shopkeepers you encounter, and the townies come to the hotel for nothing.

To also give a direct example of a NEW bug: they apparently wanted to replace the sound of the metal detector, but this new sound cuts off after a few tones and simply goes back to the old one. They don't fit together at all, it was very strange.

MySims Kingdom has no new content at all as far as I could see, and no bug fixes either. This one also still has the same flaws that I noticed as a child, and remakes are just the time for necessary revisions. I regret this purchase
