I cannot say how much I appreciate these games Virtual Villagers is a fantastic gaming series. My children all love to play. We all sit around our computer talking about what we need to do to advance our village. We also giggle about the different things we can do to the villagers. Great idea with no violence I appreciate that so much. I especially like the levels of play #1 is a bit easier though my children did figure out the golden child where it was taking me ages to figure that out. The lost children is a bit more difficult you have to think and work at keeping them alive, and I do love the feature of being able to use tech points to buy different clothes for the villagers instead of them just adding up into infinity.

I really enjoyed both Virtual Villagers games - the puzzles are challenging (tho not always logical) and it's just plain fun to cultivate your own village. Five stars for fun play. Unfortunately, once you solve it, you're done. It can be solved in a few days, then you can try different difficulties, but it's not as much fun once you know how to solve all the puzzles. It isn't a game with a play over and over quality.

A sequel to "Virtual Villagers I" this game, Virtual Villagers 2, is the same entertainment value and the same frustrations as the original. Problems that seem unsolvable (such as the sea turning to sludge) are resolved by those who have gone ahead of you or by your own luck and intelligence. This game is a true challenge using common sense, a wee bit of arcade game play and intelligence as well to keep all alive and healthy. Be prepared for more challenges then the original.
