This review is from: Virtual Villagers – The Secret City [Download] (Software Download)
This is a cute game, but it takes a lot of time, because you aren’t playing it in different levels. It’s an ongoing time thing with the members of a tribe. When you aren’t playing the game, it’s running in the background and your villagers are still working. When you check back the next day, something new has happened. It’s not the type of game you can just pick up, beat a few levels, and then move onto something else. You have to check back with it regularly, otherwise your tribe may have starved or something – it’s time consuming! If you are on a computer regularly, then I’d recommend this game, but if you’re looking for a quick, fun game you can play for a few minutes and then leave, it’s not for you. Cute game though!

Pros: I’ve played this game many times in the past and it’s so addicting and fun. It’s appropriate for all ages and it’s very laid-back and even though it is compared to The Sims series, there is really no comparison. You can kind of fast forward but its nothing relatively close time-wise because you still have to wait almost 24 hours for something fun to happen. But I’m not complaining because that’s what I love about the game. I can start playing, do something interesting, exit the game for a day or two and when I come back, there’s a surprise; and whether it’s a good or bad surprise, it’s still a little fun.
Cons: Dealing with the game download itself, the game file I purchased through here was corrupt. So unless you feel like taking the risk and losing $6.99 (can be a lot sometimes for a college student) I don’t suggest purchasing the Game Download version here. I suggest buying this game directly from Last Day of Work and receive the CD in the mail. (Chances are, it won’t be a corrupt file)
Sorry to be a debby downer. I honestly love this game, but not being able to download it after purchase made me sad.

This is a really fun game. I’m a big fan of all the Virtual Villagers series. This one wasn’t really an exception to that. As always, it’s based on real time and you have to keep your village flourishing. But somehow that never happens!!! For me that is. Some days I come back and my whole village is dead. From lack of food or something. I MUST be doing something wrong. But overall, I would highly reccomend
