Virtual Villagers - A New Home (Web Games)

I liked this game but, if you really want to enjoy it don't look at the guides untill you cant do anymore. I didn't like how it took forever to get anything done(it's a real time game) , so I would change the time on my computer to get it to hurry up.

I forgot to write a review earlier, but I've already conquered the game. It was so awesome, I was addicted to it. The game was in great condition, just like the seller told me it would be and it was shipped very fast. Thanks!

This game is slow and relaxed -- no shooting, no bashing things, and no voting people off the island, either. Just interesting activities happening at a nice mellow pace. The story line is simple: A group of villagers flee their island home because of a volcano, and they settle on a new island. When they arrive, there are some broken down huts, stone ruins, neglected fields, a clogged well and a beach full of shipwrecked debris. The only food source at this point is a berry bush -- and you have to teach your villagers how to forage it. (Pop-up hints tell you how as you go -- and click the mask at the bottom of the screen for more hints.) Once they have enough food, they can set about fixing things up. You train then to become builders, healers, scientists and farmers (although everybody can do some of everything if necessary.) You help decide who does what, but you soon find out that your villagers develop minds of their own! They earn tech points as they work and explore, which enables you to buy the different skill levels for the whole village. Eventually they learn to garden, fish, build more complex projects -- and more. One interesting aspect is that the game "runs" even with the computer off. That is, time passes as if you were playing (it must be linked to the computer clock somehow) so you can go to bed with somebody holding a baby, and wake up to fnd that the kid is a teenager, etc. Or, if you prefer to witness all the events as they happen, you can pause the game before you shut down your computer, and it will pick up where you left off last time. Simple as this game seems at first, it has a pretty good level of random intelligence and gets more complex to keep you interested. You never know what your sim-villagers will be up to next!
