SUMMARY
In virtual villagers you start off with two adults, one teenager and a few kids. The adult you put to work to provide food, shelter etc and the kids can only explore the island and pick up collectable items which help you get tech points. The object of the game is to raise a villager of people and increase the population and still be able to maintain the food resources and all the while help the people to improve the next level of farming, technology, medicine, exploration, culture or science. It’s mostly like playing god ^_^
Game Play
While I was playing virtual villagers I was pretty content with how everything went expect for the slow pace in order to get to the next level of the game. It’s very frustrating having to wait for the people to collect enough tech point, so I can purchase the next level in farming, culture, science, etc. Every new level of technology gives new puzzle to solve in the game. The characters in this game isn’t the best or the worst, it just seem like little people running around the island. The game story wasn’t all that interesting expects the times when there would be a window pop up, asking you what you should do when a villager found something and if you pick the wrong answer it would put your whole village in danger.
The game was fun to play, only when you solve a puzzle or having to deal with realistic problems like shortage of food and finding another way to deal with the problem. The game kept me interested in the fact that, I wanted to know what happens next every time I solve a puzzle. It gets addictive when you know, you have full control of what each villager do. The flow of this game wasn’t constant at all times because like I said before the game move at a slow pace so in order to really enjoy this game you got to have enough patience. This game test your patience to the fullest^_^
