I like Island Living for its world, but find it rather lacking in the gameplay department, with what little unique gameplay there is being confined to Sulani. Sure, you can have a boat and a mermaid in your home pool, but it's just not the same, and the mermaids are very underdeveloped anyway. Now if Mua Pel'am was an ancient sacrificial site where you can throw unpleasant sims into the volcano to appease the island spirits, that would make things more interesting, but unfortunately, even the volcano is all show and no substance.
Snowy Escape has similar problems with depending too much on its world, but at least that world has a lot to offer, a mountain to climb (I wish Island Living had something similar in the form of an underwater excursion), a river to swim and do watersports in (which takes away some of Sulani's uniqueness), and children can partake in most of the new activities, too (everything except rock climbing to be precise, whereas in Island Living they can't even ride boats). Also on a more personal note, Snowy Escape introduced one neighbourhood of eternal winter, something I had been hoping for, so it's clear which expansion is the winner for me.
