This was...hands down...the most fun I've had in a long time playing a game! The graphics are wonderful, the music is appropriate and it was well thought out...what a terrific idea for a story/game!!! I am 53 years old and loved this!!! I realized after I finished, I had grinned the whole time, actually LOL'd, and just downright had a blast playing! It's the first time EVER I didn't skip through the story because it was so much fun to watch!!! I haven't paid full price on a game in over a year...but I did for this one...and it was worth every penny!!!! Get this one...just for the sheer joy of the adventure you will find yourself having and smiling all the way to the end (especially the very end...what goes around...comes around!!! And omigosh...LOL!!!) :D
I recommend this game!

Very young children will probably enjoy this very much. For anyone older than that, it is just too slow, droll and boring. The graphics and sound were excellent, but I will not be buying it.
I don't recommend this game.
Challenge your linguistic wit by combing words, pictures, and letters in this fabulous Word game.

Those who like Pyramid Builders, Caveman Prophecy, etc., will truly enjoy this one. The story line is a new twist to a continual game theme...so, it's still fun!!!!! It seems almost too easy at first, but by level 5 I had to try more than a few times to keep earning gold!
I recommend this game!

I have Green City...Green City 2 is EXACTLY like it. In my opinion, if you own the first one, don't waste your money buying this one. I love Green City, but do not need 2 games that are the same. If you don't have the first one, then buy this one while it's on sale.
Adopt characters and help them choose a mate and start a family! Shape their personalities and help them get through the challenges of life.

This one has many improvements over the first, although I wish they had kept some of the things from the first in the second version. The store layout/usage is much better in the the original game. I love the addition of planning the house repairs, having new furniture, accessories, terrific items to buy for the house. In VF1 i had made the recommendation for being able to do more with the decorating as well as the peeps being able to interact with the pets...they added both and I love it. My only negative is that the furniture that pre-exists cannot be moved around. Decorating and rearranging is one of my favorite things to do with the game...especially once you have met all the goals. I wish the designers/programmers had added the ability to add/change wall paint colors, wall paper, flooring; however, what they have managed is a definite improvement over Virtual Families 1. I love this one, but would really love to see a third one come out with much more lifelike avatars, put the store back the way it was, add the ability to move ALL furnishings, change color schemes with more choices, give more clothing choices and be able to keep what we've already bought so we can send them to the closet to change outfits after we've bought them. But even after all that...I can't recommend this game highly enough...love my peeps!!!
I recommend this game!

This has become one of my favorites! The characters are graphically "fitting" for the story line...new and unknown island to learn and build upon. Pirates, Indian Princesses kidnapped, food to find, grow...building a whole new life in the unknown...and doing it successfully. You don't get any help on figuring out what to do. You have to pay attention and do some thinking as well as searching the land for your clues. LOADS of fun!
I recommend this game!
When a bolt of lightning sends you back to the days of King Arthur, you trade in your farmer's hat for a suit of armor and set off on a journey to find the Fountain of Youth!

I have so much fun with this one. The story line is consistent, the graphics are great, it is challenging...and every great once in a while they give you a breather and make a level a little easier to ace! You'll enjoy this one...and no...you have to play it to find out more...I don't give away the game. lol!!!!!
I recommend this game!

This one took me a few tries to catch on to what I was supposed to do and accomplish...but it was worth my stumbles! It's fun, it's different, and that baby is so darned cute you'll do whatever it takes to help him get home! I'm not going to give it away...but play this one...it is a lot of fun!
I recommend this game!

I'm still adjusting to the differences in this one, but am having fun with it. I find myself getting easily frustrated with it, which I'm not used to...TM and strategy games are "my thing"....but I play 2 or 3 levels and have to take a break. This one isn't easy...which is why I keep going back to it... do NOT like to make less than gold on all levels. I highly recommend it for all of you "expert" TM players....betcha this one will kick your backside, too, lol!!!!!
I recommend this game!
