News: More Sims for the Wii and DS.
EA has announced that another "Sim" title will be hitting the Wii and DS in January. SimAnimals will bring the Sims-style of play to the animal kingdom. Here's what EA has to say about the game:
Wild animals abound! You will meet a host of friendly wild animals including deer, squirrels, rabbits, hedgehogs and owls. And also some mischievous characters like foxes, raccoons, badgers, crows and bears who love to stir up trouble. Get in the middle of the action as they all come together in your very own forest setting for a wild time!
Solve challenges and achieve goals throughout the game, because the animals need you to help them thrive. Discover secrets, unlock forest areas and uncover one-of-a-kind objects and wild animals, some with special abilities, by successfully completing tasks. It's survival of the fittest, as you find out who the troublemakers are and who the good guys are to make sure everyone gets along Ц or not!
In SimAnimals on the Wii, take up to three of your friends with you on a forest adventure in cooperative play mode! The forest, filled with exciting wildlife, is big enough for you and your pals.
And, SimAnimals is tailored for the Nintendo DS. Use the stylus to orchestrate your wild animals and their environments!
УSimAnimals opens up a new world of creativity with wild animal adventure, fun and mischief,Ф said Rod Humble, Head of Studio for The Sims Label. УFor the first time in an animal game, you can reach out and touch, engage and play with a huge cast of wild animals in their natural surroundings. SimAnimals offers an immersive and tactile experience using the Wii remote and the Nintendo DS stylus that allows you to easily and intuitively become part of the wood's expressive, quirky and sometimes surprising narrative. Classic story-telling about wild animals comes to life in SimAnimals.Ф
We'll have more soon.
