does anyone know what happened to virtual villagers in the itunes app store?

i didnt mean to delete it off my iphone i went to redownload and it wasnt there anymore i didnt even get to play it and now im out $8

Have you tried contacting support at Vivendi Games Mobile? They produced the game, so they should be able to tell you what happened.

Where is this game on the iphone? I have Fish Tycoon. (started restarting itself the past 3 days) I got the computer versions of the others. Bigger screen and I have been addicted to these games. Good way to waste time instead of rotting my brain watching TV for the hour I can still and do nothing.

I found these:
On you tube

On Pocket Gamer: IPHONE NEWS but when I click on "buy" they say there is not this game on the French iTune apple store!

(I just bought an iPhone! )

Just go to iTunes and search virtual villagers and it will come up under applications.

Laurence, each developer determines the extent of their application distribution. In the case of VV1 for iPhone, Big Fish Games determines where the game will be distributed.

I thought it was something like that! The only thing that I can do is to wait... maybe... one day... *sigh*
and in waiting I play Fish Tycoon!!

What I want to know is if now that its been put back into the iTunes store but by Big Fish, if its any different than the old Vivendi one. Can anyone tell me? Dont think I want to re-spend my $8 or whatever it is unless I know.

It is the same game.

The Virtual villagers A new home by big fish is .99 I had to search by big fish in order to find it.
