Crazy, right? I'm so out of the loop! I have none of the new games that have come out since then. Anyone have any idea which game I should get first to help me re-acclimate to LDW games? Fish Tycoon 2 looks pretty interesting!

Has also been a while since I've logged into this forum. Finishing setting up a new PC and my LDW games! Which game or games do you have? Mine are all PC games; Virtual Villagers and Virtual Families series. Also Plant Tycoon and Fish Tycoon. Both Fish Tycoon and Plant Tycoon are interesting and restful to have in play :-)

I think all the “newer” games are mobile platform only. On mobile platform, I personally prefer Virtual Town over the others. The complete rework of Virtual Villagers has some appeal but I just never really got into it. My iPad plays it well enough, but frankly I have trouble seeing things on these smaller screens.

Actually VV: Origins 2 is available for PC. You can play the free-to-play version on Facebook, Steam and Microsoft Store.
You can buy classic-paid version from Iwin or WildTangent.
