Hello, I think Castaway stories has each skin darker than its counterpart in The Sims 2 series. That's why her skin is medium in thumbnail, but she looks like she has dark skin in game. I think it should be changed to "medium" as technically she has medium skin.

:The skintones on the Wiki are those of [[The Sims 2]] (TS2), which means that we can't accurately describe the darkest skintone of [[Castaway Stories]] (CS). The best solution would be adding the darker skintone from CS to the Wiki. Untill then, the alternative solutions to this are unfortunately subject to personal opinion. To give mine, I don't like using the TS2 tones to describe the CS [[Sim]]s, because I see the skintones on the Wiki as descriptive. So I prefer to pick the skintone that most accurately describes how it looks in-game. Whatever we choose to do, I'd argue that it has to be consistent with all CS Sims' skintones to avoid confusion on this matter. I personally think it looks a bit odd to describe the skintone of [[Orama Herenui]] (for example) as Medium, while both her portrait and in-game appearance are exactly the Dark skintone from TS2.

Hello, I think Castaway stories has each skin darker than its counterpart in The Sims 2 series. That's why her skin is medium in thumbnail, but she looks like she has dark skin in game. I think it should be changed to "medium" as technically she has medium skin.

The skintones on the Wiki are those of The Sims 2 (TS2), which means that we can't accurately describe the darkest skintone of Castaway Stories (CS). The best solution would be adding the darker skintone from CS to the Wiki. Untill then, the alternative solutions to this are unfortunately subject to personal opinion.
