I haven't reached the ending yet, but I love to play the game and hope the 2nd will come soon!
Normally I didn't start the computer in the mornings but now I have to check on my villagers!

You forgot to mention how this game promotes the Pro-Life, anti-abortion agenda. LOLOL. Anyone notice that they add to the # of villagers from the moment of conception? Hmm...a little subliminal mind programming, anyone?

Nothing subliminal at all, just a programming technique similar to the one in Fish Tycoon.

awesome review... great job guys!

another great review! they sum it up perfectly!

Is it just me, or does that reviewer (about.com) need a better editor? hahahah

They should let people that play the game for longer than one day write the reviews.

Here's a thorough review from Commonsense Media.

Am I the only one that was scared to death, that when the boulder was removed there would be some prehistoric Dinosoar or monster that would come out and eat everybody? I was relieved that the game didn't end. I learn something new about the little people every day. There are so many different things you can do to make it interesting and on going, if you're creative enough. I am more amazed every day at the thought and work that had to go into this game. I love it and I know there are somethings you just have to leave to your imagination, like eating and sleeping. Good work. I can't wait for VV2.
