*Tell your own stories -- createstories—create multiple profiles and tell a different tale every time.

*Two fun ways to play -- directedplay—directed Story Mode and a classic open-ended mode.

Objects in ''Castaway Stories'' blend in with the island theme, and a lot of objects from ''[[The Sims 2]]'' base game are featured, but with a new tropical design. Objects are seperatedseparated into 12 categories: Survival, Seating, Surfaces, Beds, Mirrors, Lighting, Cooking, Plumbing, Storage, Nature, Decorations and Fun.

Maps are unlocked in Story mode. A map displays every community lot in the neighborhood, and when one is choosenchosen the Sim will automatically go to it.

Every lot, residentalresidential or community, has at least one portal on it. Usually, there are more portals on community lots and they lead the Sim to a specific lot. There is only one portal on a residentalresidential lot, and, when clicked on, a map will appear where the player can select a community lot for the Sim to visit. Portals don't have any new animations, but they have a few designs.

There are three [[career]]s in ''The Sims Castaway Stories'': [[Hunter (career)|Hunter]], [[Gatherer (career)|Gatherer]], and [[Crafter]], each with a different general ratio of [[Food (The Sims Castaway Stories)|food]] to resources. Food is the amount of fish, coconuts, bananas, and papayas the player's Sim family has collected. [[Resource]]s are the castaway version of [[Simoleon|simoleonssimoleon]]s and are used for [[build mode]], [[Buy mode#Barter Mode|barter mode]], and buying on [[Communitycommunity lot|community lots]]s. As in the ''[[The Sims 2]]'', castaways receive [[chance cards]] while they are working, which can affect their career level and skills. Unlike in any of the other [[The Sims series|''The Sims'' games]], in this game every career and level in that career starts and ends at the same time, although there are some differences between [[Adult]], [[Teen]]/[[Elder]], and [[Orangutan]] career times.

* From ''[[The Sims 2: University|University]]'' - some objects, such as [[Bubblebubble bar|bubble bars]]s;

* From ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife|Nightlife]]'' - [[Fury|fury]], attractions and turn-ons and turn-offs are included, along with some items such as poker tables;

* From ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons|Seasons]]'' - fruit (coconuts, papayas, bananas and coffee beans), weather (tropical in the game), [[Fishing|fishing]] (although there are no [[talent badge]]s), body temperature, weather controlling machine, collecting butterflies and fireflies, [[penguin]]s;

*One of the biggest difference is that the "Lots and Houses" section in the neighborhood view has been removed, therefor new lots can't be placed and built. This is probably because of the issues caused by the lack of roads and existence of portals in the game. However, there is [http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=275135 a tutorial on ModTheSims] on how to copy existing residentalresidential lots and placing them in the neighborhood.
