Posted by Baylie on 06/08/2008 I love this freakin game! VERY ADDICTING! My friend downloaded it to her computer and IT WAS SOOOO FUN!! BUY IT NOW! Posted by paradox on 05/31/2008 OMG this is the best thing ever (= Posted by jade on 05/28/2008 I bought this game ages ago and liked it so much I purchased game 2. I play game 2 more than this one as it is heaps better. The only thing I dont like about either game is how slow the villagers move. They should be a lot faster. Posted by Connor on 01/18/2008 Great game, but its like having kids... or flour sack babies. Cant go for to long without playing it or everyone dies. Posted by Will on 09/24/2007 I downloaded it after 5 min. loved it SOOOOO much i bought it. Not a waste of money for sure!!! Posted by Tahlia on 08/15/2007 I have 2 kids under 3 and i still cant get away from this game. very addictive, alot of fun Posted by Emily on 05/31/2007 Rated 1-10. Virtual Villagers compared to Sims. Sims = 1, Virtual Villagers = 34034956034875603487561084765017. Posted by Emily on 05/30/2007 I wish there was a Virtual Villagers 3!! ITS VERY BEST GAME EVER!! Posted by Abby on 04/06/2007 I love this game! I played, like, non- stop on the internet, and finally bought the full version. The web version is ok, but, if you can, BUY THE FULL CD RIGHT NOW! Posted by Dalton on 04/06/2007 I love this game its really fun. Its not like other games were you have to go on it a lot. You only have to play for about 30min. a day and once you have played it for a while you can leave the game alone for days. I love that it still goes while you are away. The only dowmside to the game in my opinion is how slow the people move. But that is nothing because all the good stuff about this game weighs down that one bad. I just started playing the second one and i can already tell that it is 100 times better than the first. I really advice bying the second one and not the first one so you dont have to spend extra money when you dont need to. LOVE THE GAME!!! Posted by jessica on 03/22/2007 I LOVE THIS GAME IT ROCKS!!! Posted by Sofia on 03/19/2007 This game is the best ever. The second I played it I was addicted. BUY IT NOW!!! Posted by Chloe on 03/08/2007 I absolutely LOVE this game!

Now the second one is out and it soooooooooo gooooood! Posted by Helena on 02/22/2007 Forget the sims and all that, this game is the best! Posted by maia-rose on 02/13/2007 Its the greatest game! From making babies to life and death. Me and my mum dont let anyone on the computer because we both love the game. Its the best and better than the rest! Posted by patent on 02/11/2007 Buy it nowww!

Posted by Maddie on 01/29/2007 Virtual Villagers is the best game ever... I love this game!!! Posted by Leslie on 01/28/2007 Virtual Villagers is an awesome game but you need to pay attention to lots of things. The main one to keep the game going is that if there is one girl left with a couple of guys or 1 guy left with one girl make the girl have a baby because if you wait too long one of them will die and u wont be able to continue Posted by Nevaeh on 01/06/2007 This game is so much fun! If you like playing with virtual people this is the game for you! Posted by Heather on 01/06/2007 BUY!! BUY!! I love this game and my sister does too. I took a bet on who could do thier village better, but she won because she killed all my guys when I was sleeping... but this game is so awesome! I`M ADDICTED! Posted by terri on 12/31/2006 This has to be the best, addictive game I`ve played! I took a while to get the hang of it but now I`ve completed it. Highly recommended. Posted by Lily on 12/30/2006 I am so gonna buy it soon! Posted by Ryan on 12/23/2006 THIS GAME IS AWESOME! I only started today and I think it is the best game ever. BUY IT NOW! Posted by jack on 12/22/2006 BESTEST game I have played for ages. A hard challenge to do but still I`m not that good at it... buy the game now and don`t waste your time. Posted by tom on 12/21/2006 Excellent! Very addictive! I love it and so will you. I first had the 60 min trial but it was so good I bought the full version. Its wicked good.. I learned a lot on this game!! Posted by on 12/18/2006 I JUST LOVE THIS GAME Posted by Emma on 12/16/2006 I love playing this game, If you learn how to do a lot of stuff, you can get through the puzzles kind of quickly Posted by adrianne on 11/26/2006 THIS GAME ROCKS! BUY IT NOW! Posted by Dude on 11/24/2006 My friend and I LOVE this game! If you change the time and date on the computer, when you go back to play your villagers would have improved!!! Posted by kiki on 11/23/2006 I noticed someone said the villager numbers cant go passed 90 but I have had as many as 95 villagers at one time...its not recommended to go pass 90 because 90 is the max sustainable population according to the game but you can have more...I play this game way too much and I have solved so many things that there is nothing else and I am ready to start all over again Posted by on 11/18/2006 This is the best game ever! I loved it the second I played it in the one hour free trail I have already completed six puzzles so my only criticism would be for them to make more puzzles some a little more obvious and less with the golden child. But overall this is THE BEST! Posted by Phear me man on 11/15/2006 This game is AWESOME! Posted by Martina on 11/14/2006 BUY IT! If you love The Sims or anything like that, this game is awesome. =) Posted by AJ on 11/14/2006 It's a good game but you can ONLY get 90 people, dispite the advertisments that show hundreds of villagers. The population does not and can not go past 90 (i have all puzzles completed and still can only get 90) i finished the game in about a week, playing no more than half an hour a day. Posted by Morticia on 11/10/2006 This is the best game i`ve tried so far, but can`t buy full version....Yet :) Posted by Tegan on 11/05/2006 Its a great game, but it can get boring when you don`t really know what to do. I`m not very far and it is hard but it is a great game so I do recommend buying it! Posted by talulla on 10/28/2006 Thoroughly enjoyed this game, but felt it needed more levels. Posted by izzy on 10/10/2006 THIS GAME IS JUST WONDERFUL,I CANT EXPLAIN, JUST PLEASE DOWNLOAD IT! ITS SO COOL! Posted by izabela rybka on 10/10/2006 This game is just fab. I really enjoy playing it so don`t wait! Try it now! Posted by joanne colley on 10/10/2006 I love this game. I have finally completed all the levels. I cant believe the end. What a shocker. This game rocks! Buy it now! Posted by Roxy on 09/20/2006 OMG! This game the best ever! I just bought it yesterday and I already have 6 puzzles done! Buy it now! Right now! Posted by sarika on 09/17/2006 The game is really interesting. I had reached my maximum population and got the golden child too. Cleared 14 puzzles and waiting for the next two. The game is simply superb. Posted by Melissa on 09/16/2006 Virtual Villagers is absolutley amazing. It is like the Sims but 10x better!! BUY IT NOW!!! Posted by Mary on 09/16/2006 I just finished all the puzzles. I really enjoyed the game. My schoolwork suffered a little because it is so addicting, but I'm done now. I wish there were more to it though. Can I please have a download for additional fun??? lol. Posted by mands on 09/12/2006 What can i say? I love it!!! Posted by Kenny on 09/10/2006 ITS THE BEST GAME IN THE ENTIRE WORLD! Non-Stop Action! The greatist game in the world!
Fun! Fun! Fun! I bought it the second I played it! Posted by Jessica on 08/31/2006 This game is a MUST buy! I absolutly LOVE it... I borrowed a friends credit card so I could buy it after the demo ran out. I was addicted after just an hour! Best game in the world! I hope they come out with a second part to the game! Love it! Posted by brain on 08/28/2006 I love this game even though I only have the trial. I`m going to buy it after playing the full hour. THIS IS A MUST HAVE! Posted by Cyndi on 08/25/2006 This game is very addicting and well worth buying. LOVE IT! Posted by Chrissy on 08/24/2006 I like this game quite a bit, but I wish it was more into being able to choose how your villagers look, like if a dark haired man and a dark haired woman have a kid it is also dark haired, I think some genetics added to this game would make it even more interesting. Posted by Marshall on 08/23/2006 This is a fantastic family game....a great game for the entire family to be involved in. My husband & I play it together for a very enjoyble evening! Posted by Amy on 08/22/2006 Really good game - fairly challenging but never a dull moment. I`d highly recommend it!! Posted by martine on 08/21/2006 I love the game since i first played it. It`s great don`t miss out... get it now! Posted by kara on 08/21/2006 Very good... Great game and takes a long time to beat... I still didn`t beat it Posted by Kalana on 08/20/2006 Unbelievable......YOU SHOULD BUY IT!!!!!!!!! Posted by Jess on 08/20/2006 Its a great game, lots of fun! :) Posted by Lily on 08/17/2006 I love it! I bought it the second after my trial was over!! :) Posted by Deanna on 08/17/2006 Man! This game is so hard but its fun and you have to think very carefully about your every move... Good game, but very challenging! Posted by Zoe on 08/10/2006 So So So Good .
You should play it!
Posted by April on 08/09/2006 Virtual Villagers is a really good game. Download it now and you will see how great it is and you will love it!
Posted by Maple on 11/11/2007 If you keep putting a villager on a dead body, it will say Healing someone, for like less than a second, then they improve on healing! Thats how i got a master doctor! Posted by MIrandaCaseyMcbrown on 10/26/2007 Try to buy the second level of farming before your berries run out!
Posted by unknown on 07/15/2007 If you have a Master Scientist, Hover her/him over to locations (e.g huts, lagoons, flowers) to see something specific happen! When you get babies, they will grow up with status on their profile. Posted by j1m53 on 04/19/2007 When starting the game make sure you have a male that likes running, use him for building and farming. (gets job done much faster)Do not use woman (time lost with babys) Posted by Christina on 02/21/2007 Children can learn to heal, and actually heal villagers! If you drag them over a dead body, they'll shake their heads, and it will say "attempt failed," but then it will say they've gained some healing points! I actually used my 10 year old to heal a sick villager! Posted by shelly on 01/11/2007 When you build the school (with a master scientist) children are born with a bit of experience such as farming, scientist, bulder, etc. Posted by shelly on 01/09/2007 If you carry the villagers back to where they were working it gets the job done faster. Ex:When the worker is carrying rocks to clear the lagoon, once hes put the rock down and away, carry him back to the pile of rocks. Instead of him SLOWLY walking all the way back. Posted by candy on 11/06/2006 Choose preferences for your children before closing the game so that if they turn 14 (working age) before you play next, they'll concentrate on whatever task you chose for them. ex. Your villager is 12. The next time you play she's 15. If you choose research as her focus, your tech points will have increased faster because you had an extra person working on research for that year since she came of age. Posted by candy on 11/06/2006 If you don't have enough food stored, the villagers won't breed. They'll be too worried about food. Posted by Damian on 08/31/2006 If you Drag a Master Builder between the food and the temple on the beach a message will appear about something being buried there, drop him there a few times and then he will start digging for the buried treasure. Posted by Damian on 08/31/2006 Take the Golden Child to the magic Flower Garden, he will call the butterflies and take them to the magic fruit plant to the north of the berry bush where the butterflies will polinate the Fruit plant. This will take care of puzzle #10 and 14 Posted by nattyro on 08/24/2006 Click the mask on the bottom of the screen for hints Posted by martia on 08/21/2006 Before you can get a golden child you must get a master farmer to catch the fertility fish in the lagoon. Just put him over the lagoon and drop him in the water. Posted by Shelley on 08/20/2006 Examining the strange lily in the north east corner will improve healing powers. Posted by Mizz mizzory on 08/19/2006 Put the villager on or besied a plant and they can get healing power, but if you want to solve the puzzle let them look at all the plants! Posted by fran on 08/17/2006 To get the golden child (which helps with boulder and butterfly puzzle) you need to have all the spirtuality and breeding completed. Then put the next pregnant mother in the lagoon. Posted by Katie on 08/17/2006 Try clicking on the drum by the school and watch what the children do Posted by Marsha on 08/12/2006 Drop a mother and child in the pond to get the Golden Child. The Golden Child can move the boulder. Posted by Corey on 08/10/2006 The berry supply is limited and you’ll need to find another food source as soon as possible.
Nursing mothers devote all of their time to caring for their baby and don’t do any productive work in the village for 2 years of game time.
Babies eat as much as adults and making too many babies too soon can quickly create a food crisis.
Any villager (even a sick one) can heal another villager, but healing is only possible when a villager’s status is “Sick” (check the Details screen).
Sometimes a villager will `resist` healing attempts by a specific doctor. If that happens, try to heal your sick villager again with a different villager.
Sick villagers need to be healed or they will weaken and die [*] Villagers can become weakened by such things as prolonged disease, starvation, on-the-job injuries, animal attacks, or old age.
Villagers who show a status of `Weakened` will generally improve in health over time unless they are sick, elderly or continue to suffer injuries.
The villagers need to be taught to perform a job – they will not initiate tasks in an occupation in which they have no skill.
You can view information about various technology advancements on the Village Tech screen by clicking on the “?” button for that technology. This information will help you choose the order in which to purchase new technology.
The villagers’ curiosity is often a clue to puzzles.
The children can find and harvest a certain kind of food.
Picking up a villager while they’re working will interrupt them, and they will drop the object that they were carrying.
General puzzle strategy guide:
Most of the puzzles are dependent upon some combination of Village Tech, villager skills, and other puzzles. Although some puzzles depend upon the completion of specific puzzles, the 16 puzzles are rarely completed in the order that you see them on the puzzle screen. Pay attention to the things that your villagers are curious about and the messages that you see when you take one of your villagers “exploring” around the island. These often provide clues that will help you solve the puzzles. Another good strategy is to drag one of your adult villagers around the island after every tech purchase and look for new things that they can work on. Most of the frustration related to solving the puzzles is brought on by impatience. It takes time for your villagers to gain the necessary skills and technology to work through all of the puzzles.
Hints for the 16 puzzles:
You can safely browse these if you just need a gentle push in the right direction. Each puzzle is referred to by number. The puzzles are counted sequentially, with 1 being the leftmost puzzle in the top row, and 16 being the rightmost puzzle in the bottom row.
Puzzle 1 is something that a builder can to do to provide a source of fresh water for your tribe. Puzzle 2 allows your population to grow larger by providing additional housing for your villagers. Puzzle 3 allows access to the ocean. Villagers don’t like dirty beaches. Puzzle 4 you should take a highly skilled villager exploring just north of the research table. Puzzle 5 requires a certain level of Village Tech. Take a villager exploring in the northwest portion of the island. Puzzle 6 requires a certain level of Village Tech, a highly skilled villager, and the completion of puzzle 5. Puzzle 7 allows your poor, departed villagers to receive a proper burial. Level 2 of a certain Village Tech is required, along with a peaceful place away from the hubbub of village life. Puzzle 8 has no dependency on either Village Tech or other puzzles, and can be completed very early in the game. It involves more than one game location. Puzzle 9 depends upon the completion of puzzle 5. Take a villager exploring on the east side of the village. Puzzle 10 depends upon the completion of puzzle 14. Take a special person exploring the island. Puzzle 11 requires a certain level of Village Tech. Take a villager exploring on the southeast side of the village. Puzzle 12 depends upon the completion of puzzle 11 and additional Village Tech. Take a villager exploring on the west side of the village. Puzzle 13 will produce a very special person who will be able to do very special things. Certain levels of Village Tech and the completion of the idol are required to complete this puzzle. Puzzle 14 depends upon the completion of Puzzle 13. Take the special person exploring the island. Puzzle 15 has no dependency on other puzzles. It can be solved as soon as you have the necessary Village Tech and a villager who has mastered a specific skill. Unlike the way you located the other puzzles, you have to actually [b]drop[/b] your skilled villager in the right place to find what you`re looking for. Dragging him around the island won`t reveal the location. Puzzle 16 depends upon the completion of puzzle 13. A special person will do something that no other villager can do. (from virtualvillager.com) Posted by anon on 08/08/2006 More than one child can pick up the same mushroom! Posted by teddebear238 on 08/06/2006 Drop a master farmer into the lagoon afer they had already started to fish in the ocean and he will start to hunt for a mystery fish. It may take a few times of putting him into the lagoon but he will find it.
Posted by on 08/09/2008 To speed up research, make a scientist do research and watch him/her. They will stand still for a second and then twitch. Tech points are added when they twitch. Then just pick them up and tell the to research again. This takes some babysitting as you have to keep putting them back to the research table, but it really does make the points add up faster than just leaving them alone. Posted by Bre Ann on 12/26/2007 Sometimes your villagers will not mate because there isn`t enough housing. Take every possible villager and change them to a builder (on the detail screen) if they are not already builders and your houses will be built much faster. For Me it took about 1 minute for my house to get bigger and more built Posted by destiny on 11/24/2007 To make berries grow, take an adept scientist and study the cactus, then 26 berries will grow. Then go and hit the 2x faster for a bit, then go back to normal speed and you will have a bush full of berries! Posted by tom on 05/30/2007 If you want to make a child
a doctor, drag a child on a
dead villager many times.
Sometimes the child runs,
so drag many times.
Posted by Kayla on 01/28/2007 Hey! If you want to get more mushrooms I have a great tip for you! I`ve tryed this myself and it works! Ok here it is: You find a mushroom, then pause the game. Put all of your little villagers on the same mushroom. Some might not do it. When you unpause they will all pick up the same mushroom. I have 90 children in the game and one time I got ninety mushrooms at the same time! Its a great way to keep your food supply going! Posted by Heather on 01/06/2007 When you want your villagers to have babies, a faster way is that when you hear the kiss sound and your population goes up, then pick up the girl and move her before she goes in the hut... and there you go a baby! She will be holding it already without ever going into the hut! Posted by Joanne on 01/01/2007 Don`t change the peoples clothes too much or they will all have the same outfit (guys will have the same and girls will have the same) Posted by mushy moomoo on 12/23/2006 Name all your villagers poo head or ploplop and their heads wil be poo. BANTAM CIT ARCADE: Even if this one isn`t true its hilarious so I approved it! Posted by jerry on 11/10/2006 Push f6 while a villager is selected and their clothes will change, this also works on the golden child, but you cant go back to any previous costume. Posted by josh on 09/10/2006 The windows clock cheat works. I just wanted to add that you can change the time more then an hour too, but don`t change the time up too many hours or your villagers will end up dead! Posted by Kristin on 09/04/2006 To make the game go faster & speed up building & crop growing times, simply set the clock on WINDOWS computer, up an hour or so.
