Recently I received an interesting response to the Role-

play Sims listing page of my blog. It described a new

sim with a really fresh concept. The role play sim is

called Mayday Island, and their tag-line is “you’ll never

leave again”.

Intrigued by the concept of a cross between a movie

such as The Island of Dr. Moreau and the television show

LOST, I set out to venture into the unknown and found a

place of extreme beauty, with lush vegetation, and the

typical landscape of an island. This island though is

somewhere in the Bermuda Triangle.

Soon after my arrival I spoke to Coredump Writer, who

gave me a tour of the place and its most interesting

points. A shipwrecked ocean liner serves as living quar-

ters as well as role play areas such as a casino, kitchen,

toilets, and distillery to name a few.

Standing at the upper deck of the liner, you are able to

see the coral reef that surrounds the island. It is an in-

credible sight to see and one to behold. Check pages 4

and 5 to get a glimpse of the view. The island boasts an

herbalist, a grocery store, a bar, and a weaponsmith.

I asked Coredump about the races that inhabit the island

and I was told there were humans and beast-men. The

beast-men are the results of insane scientific experi-

ments which combined the DNA of humans with that of

mammals.

As for living quarters, some prefer more privacy than the

ocean liner provides, so they set up their residences in

the caves. The caves, though more spacious, do not offer

the view the cabins provide. The caves, though, provide

the option for players to open that area to role play or

keep it private.

The island is not without mysteries of its own. There are

very strange ruins on the island that are not typical of

the area. There island is also inhabited by a few rogue

groups such as a weird group that call themselves na-

tives and inhabit the ruins near the volcano. There is

also another group on the island called the evolutionists.

They believe that they need to reject the civilized way

and that the island has much to teach through other

ways. There are many other mysteries to explore on the

island, but those are best left to find on your own.

If you want to find out more about this curious, new sim,

take a look at their website and learn more about Mayday

Island.
