to:

* AnInteriorDesignerIsYou: Arguably the whole point of the game. You are tasked to design all sorts of houses and facilities on each island, from the ground up.
* AntiFrustrationFeatures: Creation Mode has been completely overhauled here. The original game had to load a separate screen for creating buildings or designing interiors, and they were both done in an overhead view. In this game, the magic wand allows you to design things in real time and from a ''third-person'' view (meaning your character could still walk around the environment). This makes customization a much smoother and faster process.
