Your Sims change as they take on the challenges of island life and learn to survive in style. Choose from a wide range of Sims - Auto Mechanic, Chef, Doctor, Musician, Teacher, Executive, or Park Ranger. Each one brings a unique Sim humor and quirkiness to your crew. Reunite members of your crew and build a thriving community.


== Problems ==
== Problems ==
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|
=== <s>Random Crashes with HLE audio</s> ===
This game may crash randomly in-game.  Fixed by {{revision|5.0-14626}}.
=== <s>Black Sim Photo</s> ===
In the game pause menu, a black square appears instead of the sim's photo.  Unable to reproduce in the latest builds.  Most likely an EFB2RAM requirement.
=== <s>Censor Effect</s> ===
Under Direct3D, the censor effect can cause slight graphical corruption. It will return back to normal when the censor effect is no longer on-screen. It can even crash Dolphin after a message box about "CreateTexture failed" or "Poke Z not implemented". Use OpenGL to avoid this problem.
The censor effect may cause VPS slow-down no matter what backend. Enable "Skip EFB Access from CPU" to fix this, although it will allow you to see your Sims like a nude Barbie doll. This also prevents graphical corruption under Direct3D.
Fixed some time before {{revision|5.0-2462}}.
