Fun for whole family
Nice game, mother likes, safe for kids. They loves to play this game and this is a good game for learning english. Just give a dictionary to children and encourange them to find out what stays on orange notes. Kids likes to play this game with friends. Only minus is that you need to put limits for time to play (also yourself) and you hear many time a question: "Can I check situation next morning if I don't pause my game over night?"

Bleh!
Aargh! Thar' be spoilers ahead! Take heed!
OK, I realize that there are many, many people out there that love the Virtual Villagers series, but after a second go at this line I just don't get the attraction.
The game is filled with completely ambiguous, non-logical puzzles (at two points you have to drop one of your beloved villagers - not just any villager, mind you, but a specific one - straight into a bonfire to complete a puzzle. Now wait a tic... I love my villagers! Why the heck would I try, multiple times, to throw them onto a burning pyre?)
Also featured is the much appreciated 'try-and-fail' mechanic regarding a slew of alchemy potions, (most of which are detrimental to your villagers, and only a couple of which directly progress gameplay).
And to top it off a storyline is offered that can be summed up in about one paragraph, if not one sentence.
The game is full of contradictions:
The fire helps your villagers! (but let the fire burn out)
Alchemy is essential! (but ingredients are meaningless and most concoctions will hurt you.)
Look for collectibles! (to achieve pretty much the worst reward possible).
If you do enjoy this style of game, I would strongly recommend that you try 'The Promised Land'. It has somewhat similar mechanics, except there's much more to do, much more fun to be had, and most importantly, things make bloody sense!

VV III an excellent growing tribe.
I played many times and when I finished, it was by discoevering something tha took all the Villagers underground. I never did get into that door put that statue back up because my villagers turned into spoiled teenagers that would not work or be trained. I never could finish a game with everything finished. But it is really worth it to see the villagers together again.

Love the Virtual Villagers
Is it just me? My villagers have demonstrated individual personalities and I have my favorites. I have a six year old village chief and so enjoy when she lectures then plays in rain puddles. One boy grew up the only child in the village playing see-saw by himself and spent his entire childhood gathering mushrooms to keep his village from starving. Now I let him do whatever he wants.
So much talent went into developing these games. Amazing!

All Hail the Cheif!
This is the only VV game in where you get a cheif for the tribe. The chief has special powers that cna help your villagers along. Whats hilarious is that anyone can be cheif... including a little kid. My second cheif was a five year old girl with fiery red hair. She was so adorable! Concoct magical potions, find delicious honey and figure out how to scare away the sharks so your peeps can fish , plus much more! I think the scene for this game(the ruins, coral reef) is the prettiest one yet I highly recommend this game!
