The Sims 2 Castaway Stories.

Does anybody else play this wonderful game, and does it work on Windows 10? I just got it and hop to make it run through Origin. I just wonder why I can't buy it from inside Origin but has to go somewhere else.
  • It doesn’t run through origin. However, it does work well on my Windows 10. You might have graphic issues but there’s plenty of quick fixes for it
  • it works on Windows 10, it just needs some tweaking of the graphicsrules ini, just like Sims 2 and the other two Stories games. I play it in 1980x1200 resolution and the water effects are quite pretty for a game so old.
  • Four or Five years ago, Origin offered it for $4.99 but it's not tied to Origin. You don't have to load Origin to play it if someone got it from Origin. They retired it and no longer support it, is why it's not tied to Origin. It's no longer offered, either.
