✓ Please fix the bugs!I bought gems and it wouldn’t go through it wasn’t until I bought a special offer that both transaction went through! Which then resulted in me paying double what I’d originally planned. Also I’ve received things from crates etc. only to check back in on my villagers and what I received is gone and I get something else which isn’t as good (received 5 gems they disappeared when I looked next and received some food instead) otherwise I love the game but so many glitches :(.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Tips would be helpfulI really enjoy this type of game. Iv been playing for a few days now and have spent money on it. So far iv found it really slow to progress. Lava stones and tech points take wayyyyy too long to accumulate in order to progress. Also the puzzles? The game gives you absolutely nothing to guide you as to what you actually should be doing or need to do in order to progress. The only thing im sure of is that i cant do certain things until i have an absurd amount of tech points..Version: 2.5.6
✓ If you love waiting for 30 second adverts to play it will take too long to finish this game !If you love waiting for a 30second advertising that prevents play, then waiting again 30 second advert you will love wasting hours! This game has puzzles to solve and it’s not fun as you have to save lava stones to play by watching advertisements for hours to get anywhere, honestly don’t waste your life it’s not worth it 🥲 find a real life thing to do instead there is no skill really in this game except making babies and putting a villager onto a farm to make food To do crafting is 8hrs to craft something then your villagers die waiting to solve the puzzle…. Such a huge waste of time really rather be growing my own real live plants and make money in the real world from them !.Version: 3.1.4
✓ Mixed feelingsI love the game itself! Yes the puzzles are hard and yes I make good use of google when I’m trying to figure something out but I like the challenge. The times to wait are long and you do need a bunch of lava stones to get stuff done but hey, I get it, you have to make money somewhere whether it be from add revenue or outright purchases. That doesn’t but me, that’s how the app stays running. What bugs me are.. well the bugs. I have yet to have the gold pan appear for me and have been playing a lot. The most annoying thing is that the “salt peter” wont show up for me. While using my trusting google I have found that a fair few have come across this issue. (Poor people trying to help must think we are all idiots at this point!) Please please please fix these little bugs! I looked on your site for support so I didn’t have to leave this in a review but wasn’t able to find anywhere I could message in acts. =).Version: 2.5.6
✓ Chapter 3?!So I know this will catch the developers eye hence my 1 star. Usually I’m 5 stars all the way. I am a VV and VF enthusiast. I don’t agree with the pricing on VV origins 2 but there’s plenty ways to gather tech and stones so I’m not too bothered with that. However. As many of the other games it’s time consuming. It’s been 5months without an update or glimpse of chapter 3, how are we suppose to keep our villagers alive?! Definitely need to bring back the “pause” option. Don’t think it’s fair we have to come back every day to keep them alive whilst we wait for a chapter 3. Like I said I love these games but the wait is getting slightly boring now, there’s only so much you can continue to do before you give up completely. But then that’s money and time wasted. PLEASE SORT THIS OUT!!! You’re losing interest of avid fans, I don’t want to uninstall..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Have to paySo hard to get anywhere- I have to pay for the perch for the heron to land? No other option? I liked the old vv’s as they didn’t involved gems and having to pay! Deleted the app after it kept asking for money 🙁 I would’ve paid for the game initially if only it meant it didn’t ask me during all the time! Or make it so long to progress because of it!.Version: 1.5.7
✓ The fun gets sucked out when you’re waitingUpdate: survival modes aren’t working - black screen only and I can’t find a support email. I was really enjoying this game (minus all the repetitive adverts) right up until it wanted me to wait 8 hours to craft something. 8 Hours. I’ll lose interest in that timeframe and there’s no way I’m paying your prices for in-game purchases. I’ve been a fan of these games for years - starting on PC over a decade ago as a nice little break from reality but this format and the way you’ve monetised it beyond reasonable expectations, well, it really takes the Mickey. Update : now ads seem to play when I’m not trying to do anything and will just pop up out of nowhere. Either charge for items or make money from your ads..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Very time consuming and boringEnjoyable until you complete puzzle 8, when everything that needs to be crafted takes more than 8 hours. You literally just need to open the game to collect what you crafted and craft another one. Then you need to craft at least 2-4 items just to make one final item/complete 1 task so you're wasting 1 whole day just to wait and finish an item/puzzle. I've deleted it after completing puzzle 9 and 11 as I just find it really boring now. It has become a crafting and waiting game after puzzle 8. Very disappointed :(.Version: 2.3.24
✓ I loved this game as a kid but...I used to play this game (the original version) about 15-20 years ago on my pc. Now that I wanted to play it again, I found origins 2... I have had this game for a single day and already, this game freezes and doesn’t save even when you hit save... but all the stones (or whatever they are called) that it uses to upgrade villagers are gone even though the skills that you spin for and receive(!) and all the upgrades disappear. I had a master builder, disappeared, perfect villager, disappeared, a master farmer, disappear. The villagers are there but the skills are gone and the cost of upgrading them did not return to my account. I had resources gathered, flames lit, water shell built, this game freezes when I clicked on the Eagle and I lost every dang thing I spent over an hour doing! I am honestly close to deleting this app if this bs continues. . ..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Latest updateI was enjoying this game although it does take a very long time to solve the puzzles because items take so long to craft and it is very expensive to buy upgrades, so you can be able to craft several things at once. I am disappointed though after this update because several glitches have happened in my village. My perfect villager (who I spent quite a bit to get) is no longer perfect, my tech scores are all wrong and says I have maxed them out but they are not colored all the way, I spun the wheel for a villager and received giant head and master gatherer and neither one added to my villager. I put items to craft and left the game and when I returned they were not there in the crafting bowl. There are more things but are too many to list. I am most disappointed because I have spent real money on this game and there is nothing I can do to remedy these issues. I will play a while longer because I recently purchased more lava stones but may quit after they are used -since so much I already achieved has been lost..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Issue with dialogue on iPhone 11 and ReviewPlease fix the issue with the dialogue section at the bottom of the screen on IPhone 11 (and probably X too). You can’t see the description of what the villagers are doing because the “close window” bar covers it up. I couldn’t find a way to fix this. I love the VV games and have enjoyed all of them, but unfortunately this one seems too focused on money with all the in app purchases that you almost have to make move the game along unless you want to wait literally forever to get anything accomplished. I like the previous VV games where you paid a one time fee and got everything you needed to complete the game in a reasonable amount of time. I really wish it was like those. Seems Last Day of Work has gotten a bit greedy and turned a great game into just another money hungry app. :(.Version: 2.5.19
✓ Where’s the pause?I haven’t played this in a while and had to restart, which is not a problem in itself, but the pause village function doesn’t appear to be working anymore. It’s annoying to spend time & money to build up a villagers strengths only for them to die overnight when the game is supposed to be paused. I have no problems with it taking days to achieve goals or to upgrade the various technologies, I prefer to pause the village overnight and I remember it working in the past. I don’t really want to stop playing again, especially as I paid for a couple of extras to kick start things again but, even in lockdown, I have other things to do during the day..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Tech points alwaysIt’s always the tech points are too slow. I love the game, but I’m also starting to quit because of two things 1. Tech points are too slow or too expensive to upgrade 2. The ads are now in 15 second portions and you have to click through. I get out of the game every time it does that..Version: 2.3.24
✓ CrashLe jeux crash 6 fois de suite et Je peux seulement jouer 10 minutes avant qu’il recommence a crash.Version: 2.5.19
✓ Forces adsForces ads and doesn't have rewards set up. So you are forced to watch ads for no time saving bonus, no tech points, no resources, etc... Cash grab for sure..Version: 3.1.7
✓ Slow!,This game would be so much better if everything didn’t take so long! Crafting takes for hours, gaining tech points takes forever! Teaching your villagers a skill also takes a long time! Plus there are no bonuses unless you pay for them (like the lemur that collects stuff from cracks) $30!!!! Anyone who pays for that is a schmuck and don’t even get me started on the lava stones. I love the idea of the game, it makes you think of new ways to do things but the waiting times are just ridiculous! Every time I get back into the game all my people are dead and I have to train the new ones!.Version: 2.5.19
✓ Can’t finish a puzzleI’ve done everything I can. I even looked up what to do. I can’t seem to make a scythe. My villager is a master builder and goes to do it but I can sit there for hours and nothing will happen. He just stands there hitting at it and no scythe is made..Version: 3.1.28
✓ Keeps taking away Tech Points, Food and Ads pop upI don’t know if this game is not compatible with the new iPad, but I have contacted the Support Team a couple of times and they have not got a solution for the problems. I read the reviews before writing this to see if others have the same problems and see the problems have been going on for a few years so I don’t think it’s the 8th Gen iPads. I played all the earlier versions and enjoyed them for years but I don’t know if they would work now. I’m just getting frustrated like others at losing myTech points when I haven’t used them and all Food disappearing along with new Ads popping up now as soon as I start the game and find half my villagers are sick and as soon as I find a Healer and start to carry them to the sick. Ads when I try to start a craft. I’m glad I haven’t spent money yet, because I was going to in order to progress..Version: 3.1.2
✓ It’s good, but....After about a week of playing, spending money on it, and actually getting to a point where I was finally getting somewhere, the app now will not load past “Audio Initializing” I don’t know what to do, I don’t want to lose my progress, and I don’t want my money to be wasted, because that will just make me not want to play anymore. If there’s a way around this, other than deleting the app and losing my progress, please, tell me!.Version: 3.0.7
✓ Don’t make sense screen flawSo you can’t see any of the writing of what they are doing because the home bar is in the way of all of it and you can’t take the home bar away, on iPhone please fix that it don’t make sense if you can’t see parts of the game you need to be able to read and you can not it’s really not helpful just started playing and have no idea on what’s going on.Version: 3.1.28
✓ SpeechlessOne of my villagers had a baby with her dad. Ok game tho I've been playing virtual villagers games for years. I know the whole lavastone thing is partly LDW's way of adapting to the way game apps make money these days but they are really kind of annoying. And every time I do the wheel spin for the villagers it gives me horrible options, forcing me to keep going lest I f@¢k up my dudes. I think for something that costs that much it shouldn't be mostly things that would inhibit you. I mean it's 5 lavastones Also, I've never seen tech upgrades be so costly and my villagers generate tech points so slowly before. I've probably watched hundreds of ads by now because it's so much faster than my master researchers. That was never an issue in previous VV games I played. I guess we all need to make money somehow though. Overall it is a good game but I'm nostalgic for being a very young kid and playing virtual villagers offline on my PC, no extra purchases necessary to improve gameplay. I also miss being able to change the speed of the game..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Great game, but...I was addicted to VV: A New Home on my desktop back in the day, so I downloaded this for my iPad. I really like this game, but it is very buggy. Ads usually cause the game to crash or malfunction in a way I have to exit and restart. After each item I craft, an ad pops up. Also, with all the ads you’d think there would be more rewards, but no, just bugs. I also wonder what all the fireflies are for. Only thing mentioned in the forums thus far is holiday lights. It also takes way too long to accomplish tasks, unless you are willing to spend a small fortune for upgrades. I’m starting to think the only way I can advance in this game is to spend money. I would be willing to spend $.99 here or there for lavastones, but it would have to be for more than is currently offered. Also, anything more than 5,000 or 6,000 tech points for the first tech level is excessive since it takes so long to accumulate points..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Not a great fan of this gameI loved all the other ‘Villager’ games, this one has great graphics and storyline, but I found i ended up getting really bored playing it, found crafting some items took a ridiculous amount of time, purchased the lemur and so far it has collected 48 pots of magic...seriously?, hard to keep people on task even when delegated they just keep wandering down to river. Maybe there is a glitch in my game..Version: 2.1.25
✓ Was fun brieflyI was having a great time, love the new look as I’ve beat the game many times before but just love it. To my dismay as soon as I started crafting my game glitches and closes every time. It uses my resources and I get nothing in return and therefore cannot finish the achievements and challenges. Very disappointed and will be deleted. Even on google says this is a common problem and people have been told for weeks it’ll be worked on and has not been. So don’t bother with this game until it’s fixed.Version: 3.1.7
✓ Pause does not workReally enjoying this game, but wanted to pause over the weekend. I pressed pause, but came back to half my villagers dead, and only one woman left at 48years old, no kids and no one under 40… not going to be able to play for much longer now...Version: 3.1.7
✓ Great game but the ads interrupt play too muchI really enjoy the game- it’s a slow one so be prepared to take your time if you don’t want to spend real money. Recent update on ads has really killed it for me though- they randomly appear and interrupt game play for 30 seconds at a time. In the old model I used to choose to watch the ads to speed up item production and to get gems- appreciate they need to make money to keep running but this new way just spoils the actual gameplay for me..Version: 2.4.13
✓ Was great until the last updateChallenging and fun but since the last update it has become incredibly power hungry. Even when every other app is completely closed and VVO2 is just running in the background and the iPad is plugged into the mains charge only stays at the same level..Version: 2.5.2
✓ Works mostly fineNice UI change but I still prefer the previous format for the viewing villagers, where you get to switch between each villager of focus via left and right buttons. It’s also kind of buggy on my iPhone 6; I can’t seem to drag or move villagers sometimes. For the other VV games, I can do it without a hitch but not with this one. :/ Otherwise, so far, I like it..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Love the game but how do you know how to do the puzzles without a walkthrough?I loooove the game but I do think there are a few things that could be improved on... mainly some mechanics. How would you know crafting recipes without looking them up? I could understand if you got the items back at the end of crafting if the recipe doesn’t work.... but it wasn’t fun experimenting with recipes and watching my already sparse magic disappear. Same thing with the puzzles... how would I know how to do all these intricate steps without looking up a walkthrough? I totally understand it’s designed not to be too easy but steps require (this is an example, not necessarily in the game) 2 adults and 1 child... 1 master/adept builder that is also a master/adept gatherer. Seems like a pretty specific requirement without giving hints. Again, love the game! Just wish I didn’t have to look up the walkthrough to be able to complete puzzles..Version: 2.5.2
✓ Game FrozenWas really enjoying this and now my game has frozen on “saving” I can’t do anything, none of my villagers will do tasks and I can’t click on anything because it doesn’t work. Tried to uninstall and that didn’t work either.Version: 2.4.16
✓ Too many glitches, had to stop playingI enjoyed previous versions of VV so decided to push through and deal with several problems with this game but finally reached my limit when I lost hours of progress (a villager had just retrieved the ruby using the jump potion that took 10 hours to make) when I suddenly got an error screen showing a restart button that left me no option other than to click it. When I got the game open again the ruby was back up in the original location and my jump potion was gone. I get that the goal is to play the long game here but losing a key item that took 10 hours to make was just the straw that broke the camels back. Other issues that have made the game quick frustrating to play: - Not optimized for iPhone 11: you can’t read what the villagers are doing at the bottom of the screen or see the part of the game behind the front camera piece. - Ads come on at increasingly irritating times: initially the game would only play an ad when you clicked on crafting hut or agreed to watch an ad to gain lava stones/tech points, but over time the ads started popping up any random time, like in the middle of dragging a villager to do something important, and by the time the ad was done the villager wasn’t there and you had to go find them again. Overall I really wanted to like this game, but it just needs to be less glitchy for me to enjoy it..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Money grabbing all the timeThings take too long to complete, I remember when this was a great game I’d rather buy the game for £10 and actually be able to play it. You can’t achieve anything without constant buying of products to save time otherwise to play it free it’s going to take years. Such a disappointment because I used to love this game on the pc when I just purchased it and that was the end of it. Gutted..Version: 3.1.7
✓ Too time consumingThis game is as great as the previous versions however it takes too long to craft the items you need to progress. It takes way too many tech points to get to each level. You have to keep many researchers to get to them. You don’t really get any clues to what you need to do to achieve the puzzles and some of the items you need to craft other items to solve puzzles you can only get from the cracks and that’s rare (like magic). Since you are limited on the number of villagers unless you purchase an increase, once you achieve all levels your villagers live longer but can’t have children after 50. So you can let villagers die by poisonous frogs and hope some villagers are young enough to still have kids OR if you buy heron? to keep the frogs away then eventually all your villagers die of old age and there are no more people. I’ve spent too much money on lava stones to which now there is no point to keep playing because I produce less and less kids after reaching all levels and solving all puzzles. I guess my village will become extinct. Bye bye little village :(.Version: 1.5.7
✓ BUGS BUGSI’ve been a fan for a long time. Came back after a few years to have some fun. The game has bugs. At the crafting hut, whenever I go to collect my crafting items after it’s completed, it always takes so long to retrieve the elements. Not only that, it has a chance of losing the item due to the screen not loading! I’ve lost so much time, effort, as well as lavastones doing this. I’d speed up the craft, and lose the lava stone in the process of retrieving the items. I like this game, and I’ve already spent $45+ on it, but the bug is making the game very frustrating..Version: 2.5.19
✓ In-app purchasesHave been very excited for chapter two, tried to buy more lava stones, have been charged by Apple and have gone through the process, but then stuck on a never ending loading transaction screen within the VV villages game. Have restarted the game and no lava stones. If I go to purchase again, it says my purchase is still there, but then I get stuck on the transaction loading screen again within the game... Please fix soon guys, thanks!.Version: 2.0.3
✓ Too much crashing and weird things adsThe longer I play, the more frequent the ads. Everytime I log in now, I’ll get some weird ad about a neglected family or making fun of some “extremely ugly” girl. The ads will interrupt me when I’m doing something important, or I’ll be forced to watch an ad before I get a reward but then the game may crash so I won’t even get my reward. It also crashes everytime I finish a crafted item, and it takes WAY too long to craft or raise your healing skill. Everything feels like it’s pushing you to pay. I’m pretty close to uninstalling, which makes me sad because I remember having so much fun playing the first Origins game..Version: 3.1.7
✓ GoodKind if tedious but fun.Version: 2.5.19
✓ PLEASE FIX BUG FIXES ERASING PROGESSI love this game, I play everyday. I am a huge fan of last day of work productions, however, with this particular model of game, there seems to be a little bit of an issue. I will complete tasks like watching ads for lava stones/ tech points, craft items, watch ads to decrease time of crafting, and other common things. The game continues to buffer, restart without permission, play multiple ads in a row, play ads without reward, and when these glitches are occurring, it will erase my crafted items even after they have already been placed- in this example my clay bricks. I had already gotten a master builder to place the bricks and when this started occurring, it took my bricks and erased the progress. I don’t usually have issues with the games from this developer, however, today I have been experiencing major problems so much that I can’t even play for long periods of time. Keeps sending error codes and messages to my screen every time I try to do one of these things. And also, I believe I paid for this version and it still flashes ads on my screen throughout my gameplay, what’s up with that? If I wanted watch ads with no reward, I would download LITE. please fix. Please please please. I don’t like losing my clay bricks. Very annoyed..Version: 2.5.19
✓ New version disappointingI’ve loved VV for years, but this version is very disappointing and after only a couple of days I’m tempted to get rid of it. It’s tedious and painstaking to collect tech points without buying anything, and without them the game grinds to a halt early on. The adverts popping up after each crafted item are annoying as well. It’d rather pay for the game, like it used to be! Pay for the game, and then actually be able to play, progress, and enjoy it..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Fun for a few weeks at bestNot only does it get boring since you have to wait days for things to be made, but there is not much else to do after you complete most of the puzzles. To get a master gatherer takes way too much time and it honestly just needs more, and it shouldn’t take time to craft things because that’s just a way of basically using your money for nothing, because lava stones are super expensive and you get only one when you watch an ad and there is a limited amount of ads you can watch before you get sick of it. It’s also annoying when most of my villagers are dead except for some elders and I have to start with brand new people who aren’t that skilled and don’t want to work as much. However, at first the game is quite fun and figuring out how to solve the puzzles and stuff is entertaining. I just wish I had a reason to complete the game like you get more puzzles or something when you complete the first set. Just a suggestion from someone who has been a fan of these games for a very long time..Version: 1.5.6
✓ Tech and food points all resetSo I love this game and have spent money on it but I was very frustrated to see when I logged on this morning all my tech points and good had reset back to 0! I refuse to spend anymore money till this gets sorted.Version: 3.1.2
✓ Too many adsIt lets you play for a day, and then after that every time you do anything it starts playing an ad and tries to make you watch it..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Crashes a lot but is a good game, notI’m on ipad pro and the game gets hung up saving which it seems to do constantly and if you try to watch a video, it gets stuck saying it’s saving but you have to close out the game to get it to stop which means you don’t get a video reward. I’m enjoying the game when it’s playable as I have all the virtual villager games. It’s exciting to see Last Day of work still working. Just please fix. Edit: The game moves slow but I’m ok with that since that means I get to play for longer. I replayed the originals several times in the last 15 years or so. Also, the lemur is well worth the 9.99 since you can’t make enough rope for all the cracks and he’s always finding me good stuff. Edit: After 16 days still no master healer or chief. The lemur was a mistake since it finds food. I didn’t buy the heron fortunately since I’ve seen only 4 frogs in 16 days. It’s getting old. My game is broken and unfixable. I spin and spin but get nothing I need..Version: 2.1.25
✓ Everything disappearedI love this game but I am getting frustrated with losing all my tech points and food for no reason. I waited a long time to gather 790,000 tech points to upgrade and suddenly as I was playing everything disappeared!!! Is the second time that is happening. I am still waiting for reimbursement. Very disappointed!!!.Version: 3.1.2
✓ Great if tech points didn’t disappearI love these games and have played them for a while. I loved this version and do think it could be great. However, twice now I have had A LOT of tech points just disappear after days of working and watching ads. Emailed support and they did not do anything for me and it happened again. I’m super disappointed and felt like all my time is wasted. You also have to watch a lot of ads if you want to progress faster which is okay if points didn’t randomly disappear out of no where..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Keep losing crafts that take days to makeI have been playing the virtual villagers games for years and have just loved them. This one has been very frustrating to say the least. First I crafted the jumping potion and as I had someone walking it to the Ruby, the game had to suddenly restart due to some type of error and when I came back it was gone. It had completely disappeared. That was super frustrating because I had to find all of the magic, wait for it to craft and then it was nowhere to be found. Then I crafted the yellow glass which takes quite a while to craft, I believe 2 day’s just to make the glass, not including the stuff to make it. As I was walking someone to bring that to the yellow statue my game went black and it also disappeared!! I wish if let’s say a character dropped a craft, it could be picked up rather than just disappear! I would really like to play this game but it’s disappointing when you work hard at something and you just can’t complete the objectives. I have also ran into many times where you craft rope and have a villager bring it to a crack and they investigate it but nothing happens. They don’t find or collect anything. Very frustrating!!!!!.Version: 1.5.7
✓ So much potential.I used to play the first version on PC growing up and loved it. This version has so much more to do and is such a good game, but there are so many glitches it makes it impossible to play! Crashing all the time, losing resources you’ve collected/made, not saving other things you’ve done and just generally ruining the entire experience. Then there’s how shockingly expensive it is for the lava stones so you can only craft one thing at once unless you want to spend a ton of money. And chances are that one thing will disappear when it crashes. I’d happily pay good money for this game to be released on a console like Nintendo switch etc. I don’t think an app can process the level of information that this game needs so it will never work right on this platform. Please do yourselves and your fans a favour and make this a game that works for more than 5minutes!.Version: 3.1.7
✓ MehIt would be better if there were less ads and the ability to time skip the device to make the game go faster.Version: 2.5.19
✓ Glitch that hasn’t been fixed.Nice game but can’t get past the loading dock/ trade boat scene as the Game gets permanently stuck on saving! I tried clicking on the boat but nothing happens, I am completely unable to interact with anything. I have tried resetting the game but every time I boot it up, I am brought back to the cutscene that says to make a trade, and everything is completely unable to be interacted with. I cannot click the boat, any villagers, or any buildings. Ridiculous as they end up dead.Version: 2.5.19
✓ Annoying glitchTech points & lava stones randomly disappear for no reason. I just had almost 300k points go to zero in front of my eyes..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Random Ads, Semi money trapAs someone who’s played every virtual villagers multiple times, I dont recommend this one. Its fine but its not as good as the other virtual villagers or virtual families mainly because every time you open the app theres a random ad that you have to watch part of. Recently ive been getting ads that i have no way of closing so I can’t even play the game anymore. It takes WAY too long for most crafting things because they expect people to get impatient and spend money on gems. Also the amount of tech points it takes to get past the first tier is kind of ridiculous. It goes from needing 17k-22k tech points to needing like 170k+ for the second level. They offer a stork thing to help keep the poisonous frogs under control and a lemur to go into these earthquake cracks to get things like food, crafting materials, gems. Ive bought the lemur because at first it would bring like 5000units of food and a bunch of gems but after you buy it, it barely finds anything of worth or that could actually make a difference. Its just sad to see a company that used to make great games that werent money traps and didnt have unwanted ads to have turned into a company that makes money trap, constant pop up ad games..Version: 3.1.2
✓ What the...First off: I gave this 2 stars simply because of nostalgia. I would have given it 1, but I did enjoy the serotonin boost when I saw it. Anyways, What a load of crap. I’ve had this app for one day, heck not even one day, and I can already tell there’s mega problems. What happened to the original, good game? The game that wasn’t money hungry? I understand needing money from your creations, but Jesus. This game just screams money desperate. $100 dollars for 3,000? That only gets you one upgrade! What the heck guys. Also, only white villagers? The ability to have incestuous relationships? I’ve been scoping the reviews and responses as well. What do ya know, only automated “help responses”. Many people have asked questions and you just hit them with a “VV is definitely a deep game blah blah blah join our group!” App makers definitely don’t care about criticism or the fact that people are unhappy. As long as they keep making money, right? Don’t have to put out a genuine game as long as they give us money, right? Sad..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Lost ProgressI have been playing this game for months and really enjoying it but after downloading the latest update all my progress has been lost and I have to start from the beginning. I'm not happy with this at all as I had made a lot of progress and had built up my lava stones and tech points. Please help me get my progress back!.Version: 2.2.7
✓ Good game but tech points are unrealistic.I like this game, I used to have it on pc but now having it on iPad I find it disappointing as tech points are so hard and so expensive to purchase. (I miss not having to purchase tech points on pc version) Need better ways to get tech points for free! Cos it’s a simple game but it would cost u a lot to reach the end. It’s not a high enough quality game for me to want to spend a lot on it..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Important information covered by home barSo, I’ve had a guilty joy of the virtual villagers series since the first one released way back when and have just discovered to my joy that they still are keeping it going. However, my joy was cut short when I discovered that all the important text of the game that tells you things like what the villager you have selected is doing or why they can’t do a certain thing is completely covered up by the home bar on iPhone X, XR, XS, etc. Apple has decided to not give us an option to hide this bar despite complaints about it for quite a long time. Since they are not changing it, it would be wonderful to see this app still be playable on newer phones. I can’t really enjoy playing it if I have to blindly fumble around. Please just move the text up by a few centimeters and it will be perfect. Until then... I can’t really recommend it to anyone with an iPhone X or newer..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Little creepy peopleI’m a big fan of Virtual Villagers. I’ve been playing these games since I was little and always come back them because it’s such a cool game. Though I really hated this new version. It was so confusing and difficult to use. The older versions was straight forward and got to the point. I did love the new map and how much more developed it was! Though thelittle people freaked me out and I would much rather the new map and the old villagers. Deleted it soon after downloading and played older versions..Version: 2.5.6
✓ The ads are getting worseI came back to Virtual Villagers recently after having had fun with earlier games. I’m finding that the pop up ads are getting more and more intrusive daily, and I can’t gather certain time based resources because an ad pops up just as I’m about to gather. I like being able to choose to watch them to get tech points and lava stones, but I’m getting to the point of not bothering with the game..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Ripped off & developer hard to contact! Not happyI’ve been playing this game this week & really liking it, but today a special offer came up on my screen - Buy a sack of lava stones & get a Lemur for free. I thought it was a good deal so I bought it.......but Lo & behold, no Lemur has turned up in my game. I’ve been trying to contact the developer with no success. Because I didn’t buy it directly through them, but through the Apple Store, I’m meant to seek help through them apparently, but when I click on App Support it takes me back to the LDW developers page, which then says to seek help where I bought it. Very frustrating. Not happy. Waste of my money. I’d be grateful if the developers would contact me to sort this out please..Version: 1.5.7
✓ Want to watch ads? Then this is for youI loved when this game was on my pc years ago so I decided to relive that memory. Well after getting halfway through the game they decide to make me watch an ad whenever I open the game, but wait it gets better. It’s not when you first open the game but a random time after startup so whatever you are doing forget it you gotta find the villager you were trying to work with after watching a random 15-30 second ad. You want to craft something, but spend some well earned lava rocks to speed it up, tough luck there dude, you gotta watch a 30 second ad. Finished crafting something without spending money on rocks or watching ads for rocks, you also gotta watch some ads. I can handle watching ads under my own free will if I want some free stones, but don’t make me watch an ad whenever I start up the game or I want to craft something. This game was great when I started, but really rubbed me the wrong way when you started pumping all these ads at me when I’m halfway done it. It’s either suffer with ads to finish the game or do what I’m doing and just delete it and forget it..Version: 2.5.6
✓ 3 star explanationI want to give this game 5 stars. I love to play, BUT... it takes wayyyyy to long to make the things you need to complete the challenges, there’s no explanation or help for the puzzles your just on your own to figure things out. Lava stones are a must have so unless you willing to spend your own money to buy them or spend your day watching game previews to get them, the only other way is to cross your fingers and hope they come from the occasional earthquake. Now skill point to level up each individual skill 🙄. The second and third level require a ridiculous amount of points. I get that the game has to make money somewhere so I won’t complain to much but it is a lot of points, and it takes days to accumulate them. The game can get a bit boring waiting to upgrade enough to move on to the next step. I think we should be able to upgrade our huts as to accommodate more villagers and Mother’s should nurse for a shorter period of time. I love to play the game but it needs a few tweaks..Version: 1.5.7
✓ The oldI miss the old village life this game is okay but in don’t really like it but Is this possible that we can have the old village life PLEASE ?.Version: 3.1.4
✓ CrashesGreat game so far but I’m experiencing the game crashing, especially when I go to collect whatever I’ve created in the Crafting Hut.Version: 3.1.7
✓ FrustratingEvery time I open the game I get a tutorial telling me to trade something at the dock but nothing is at the dock and I can’t progress any further. I can’t click on villagers or anything. 1 Star for me until this is fixed..Version: 2.5.6
✓ TerribleI’ve played virtual villagers since the first and this game has got to be one of the worst, constant disconnection, save game loss and spamming you to death with adverts, I played the game ages ago when it first came out and after I came back months later my game had gone, customer service not helpful one bit basically told me sorry your game is lost never even bothered trying to help, just some copy and paste message. Is it just me or is this game series getting worse? I think so, don’t get me started on virtual town... Not recommended as clearly the passion from LDW has died, don’t slaughter the series by becoming a money hungry developer, it doesn’t suit you when you think back to your games style and past games, clearly not the same people making this as the original. Update: that’s the exact copy and paste message I got 4 times on my ticket, you have to be taking the mick, no I told you then I had not used Facebook to log in, not all of us are social media hooked, it was local, and nothing changed, if you bothered to read my email, but thanks you’ve just proved my point..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Disproportionate game speedI have tried to enjoy this game but find it is significantly disproportionate. It has dozens of glitches and it effects how fun it is. As someone who has loved all Virtual Villagers games in the past, this one is not given as much care as ones in past. List of gripes include: cannot read font at bottom of screen and was told by tech support to await an update. This error is years in the making since the iPhone loss the Home Screen button many years ago. Also, when making the elements, often i come back to the game and it was reset and they didn’t finish cooking. However, my tribe still ages and dies and i in turn lose my progress or ability to make it in a timely manner. Also, my game has disappeared multiple times. When it disappears, it’s fine for 4/5 days before tech support has helped me fix it. When it comes back, my people have kept aging and dying and now I’m unable to have babies because my tribe is too old which means i have to use lava stones to reincarnate dead tribe members. I just want to finish the puzzles, but the speed of age vs speed of everything else is highly disproportionate.Version: 3.1.4
✓ Game ruining bugThe game is okay but it keeps resetting your tech points I had 70000 logged back in and I had 1000. Bought lava stones once bought 11000 tech points with that and bam the lava stones I spent gone but tech points aren’t there. Super annoying when you want to progress OS upgrade tech so your villagers don’t starve..Version: 3.0.9
✓ Don’t waste your timeThe game is screwed because some muppets can’t make a simple game work properly so items or parts of the puzzle never turn up so you can never finish got half way through waiting on some stupid crate to arrive never has and probably never will waste of time Your response is ridiculous it’s not that the puzzles are challenging if really needed you can find out all the answers on the web it’s purely the fact that the game is faulty was a waste of time a rip off so disappointing used to like the virtual villagers games but this is a giant rip off and I’m the first this has happened to either there are many more online having the same issue.Version: 2.3.24
✓ WHAT EVEN IS THIS?? 😶I downloaded this game yesterday and I have to say I’m both greatly disappointed and disgusted! First of all tech points are needed for everything in the game, like you can’t progress without it but it’s really hard to come by and my villagers can’t even stay alive long enough to give me a satisfactory amount, why do they age so fast? You can go to bed with a villager age 2 and wake up and that same villager is 16, like, what?? Secondly, the dynamics of this game really confuses me. A villager can’t just be with one person because? They literally get with everybody. The family tree is all over the place. It irks my soul that they can’t get married or copulate with just one person and the game logic is so messed up that a villager can get with their own child/children 18 years later 🤮. I saw my male villager heading to the love shack with his own mother just now and that prompted me to write this review!! Who in their right mind would allow this?? And this game is available for children starting at age 4? You developers must be deranged!!.Version: 3.1.4
✓ Good game... if it was made in 1958Now I LOVE this game. It’s so good, so fun. But I’ve recently noticed things that appear odd. There are NO black villagers. No poc. When two villagers have a baby, it’s is always the female villagers job to look after it. And, the tutorial favours male villagers for tasks like building, farming, but favours female villagers for tasks like healing. Now this may seem like I’m reaching, but micro details like this actually matter when contributing towards the growth of society. Teaching children sexist generalisations, and erasing people of colour has never, and will never be helpful in our growth towards acceptance for minorities. I really hope that these details can be evaluated, and that the creator of this game did not mean to appear bigoted.Version: 2.5.19
✓ Lost all my tech pointsI had over 4millions tech points accumulated since I was at the last puzzle of chapter one (took a lot of time doing it) and just like that it disappeared!!! Tried emailing to get them back but got a computer like reply... Very disappointed..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Interesting, but far from complete.I would like to preface this by saying, I have loved the concept of these games, and the earlier ones were a good challenge. It took almost no time to have a stable supply of food and tech points. My people never starved, the only thing I really did need in this game is to wait for the crafting timers to be done to proceed, get people to master skills by repeatedly only letting them work on one thing and waiting on tech points. One such thing is how sometimes, your villagers will pop up in places they can’t get out of when you open the app. Another is how some ads won’t give you anything despite the timer being finished. I have been told and seen on from others who have this app that there should be something to pop up at times to let you watch an ad to shorten crafting times, but I never get that option. I have to agree with an earlier review as well, getting tech points and food from the cracks after having bought the lemur is rather frustrating, as I have no need for it, and likely never will. On one last note, when I pause the game, it should pause the daily login bonus as well, but it doesn’t. If there is some way to patch or fix these issues, please do so..Version: 2.4.16
✓ I keep having to start over!I used to really enjoy playing the older versions of virtual villagers, although I haven’t played in a few years, but something I don’t remember happening in the older games is having nearly all my villagers die after more than 12 hours away from the game, or going to sleep with villagers age 30-something and waking up to them aged 60+ so I don’t know if the time in this game is faster than older versions but it seems to be the same speed when playing. I’d just like to be able to go for half a day without playing the game and not have my entire village die before even having a chance to get enough tech points to get new technologies! I’ve restarted my game twice now and if I come back to my villagers dead again tomorrow I’ll be so frustrated I won’t even want to play the game. The first time I had to restart my 4 villagers died overnight and I only had 1500 tech points, I didn’t even start farming yet! The second time I had just unlocked the first farming and construction technologies and my 3 female villagers had babies and were in their 20s, the next day I checked on them and only the kids are still alive and are in their 20s... now I’m sure there are plenty of people out there who want to stare at their phone all day long playing games but I’m not one of those people, I spend more time NOT on my phone than on it..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Update for newer iPhones?I love this game I’ve played it on and off for years now, but now that I have an iPhone without a home button I have a white bar at the bottom of the game screen where all of the information about each villager is shown (example- “______ is to young to farm!”) luckily since I’ve played for a bit I know what some of them say, but now when trying to complete puzzles or other things I’m not sure why my villager can’t do certain things. If there could be an update to move the info bar up slightly or if there’s a way to remove my white “home screen bar” please help me out! Other than that new “bug” I’ve found, I love this game and there’s always something new going on with it. I like that it’s a game that continues while you’re gone so that time can pass and you can still improve while you’re away. I would give this review 5 stars but I want the problem to be noticed..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Too many ads to be enjoyableCompletely ruined by the amount of ads, I’ve been playing for a while and I like the game but it is just ruined by the amount of ads, one when you first load it another when you finish crafting anything another if you purchase anything and just another random one if you’ve been playing for over 5 minutes! Feeling like I’m being punished with ads for playing 😤.Version: 2.5.6
✓ Disappointed!I’ve dragged my family all over the place, got a few things done, now I have to wait days for tech points, I’ve most probably inbred the family, hard to tell when surnames are random and everyone is on auto breed. Need more to do, more for the kids to do too. I will never pay for play, done that and lost a lot of money never again. Very disappointed..Version: 1.5.7
✓ Fun but easy to get stuckI played constantly for days until I got stuck on the coloured statues part. I grabbed a crab to remove the moss on a stone but a random event popped up while she was carrying the crab and when I clicked my choice the crab disappeared and hasn’t come back. The stone says the villager needs to be better at gathering to pick it up but no matter how many times I make a villager gather items they are stuck at 3/4 gathering skill. Why is this? How do they get to be a master gatherer? I can’t find any help online since this game has been changed around many times..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Constantly crashes, weird on iPhone 13Having played all the past virtual villagers games, origins 2 was the last one on my list. However I am disappointed with how this game plays. First you cannot see the text at the bottom of the screen. The phone blocks it with the white line that indicates the bottom of the screen, so you don’t know what your villagers are doing. Secondly, the game crashes every time I collect the item I crafted. Whether the craft failed or was successful every time it crashes. Crafting seems to be a big part of this game, and it is absolutely frustrating to have to go through the whole log in screen every time I need to craft. The game is so much fun, but these two things are truly hindering the experience. I don’t really mind the ads either, I would love to watch an ad if it means I get extra lava stones and whatnot, but the mechanics of the game are the issue..Version: 3.1.7
✓ Crafting and CrashingCrafting some items took days. The game crashed and the item was lost. No thanks. I was disappointed because I enjoyed the previous games..Version: 3.1.7
✓ Ok but some issuesI recently picked this game back up because I enjoyed it the first time I played but never finished it. I forgot how frustrating it can be. Takes hours to craft one item, unless you want to pay money to open up the other two crafting baskets. 8 hours for one important item is a little much. My villagers take forever to get tech points even though I have 20/24 of them working on it. Probably because they research for about 30 seconds then wander off to do something else, rinse repeat. They never STAY at the table for very long. So needing to get over 1 million tech points for one stage of tech takes days. If I close the app entirely it feels like it takes even longer than if I let it run in the background. Other issue I’m having is I go to collect a crafted item and it gets stuck “saving the game”. I have to force close it multiple times just to stop it from staying there..Version: 2.5.19
✓ BoringI’m not sure whose idea it was to create this game but fail. I’ve been playing VV since I was a kid and never have I ever been so underwhelmed by anything. The format of this game is so annoying because it has the elements of LDW games we love but with the greediness of a P2P game. I downloaded VV 5 at the same time and finished that one today while barely making progress in this one. And this is after purchasing the starter pack so I can only imagine how boring it is without it. The truth is that this game is TOO slow. I play a lot of real time games and never have I been able to come check in once or twice a day and not be able to make any type of progress. The amount of tech points required to just get to level two is ridiculous. The amount of trial and error and the fact that you have to wait in between gathering resources. And then guess combinations. And then do more waiting as it is crafted. Just sooooooo many elements put into this game that scream overkill and desperation for money. Tip: if y’all are going to make a game that is “long term”, there needs to be some type of reward system (easier to accomplish mini puzzles, clear goals and instructions, longer descriptions about tech upgrades and what they bring) in place so your players don’t feel like they’re wasting their time. And it’s even more evident that this game was made strictly for profit because it doesn’t even have the same speed up capabilities as the others. So disappointing..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Not feeling it.I have played most the vv out there and I liked most if them. The crafting in the game is horrible. I hate looking up recipes. Getting a 30 second ad every time it failed was painful. Needing to spam fertilizer and ropes kills the fun. trying to get a char up to chieftain is going to take 4 incarnations(or less if you aim for it much later in the game). As the game progresses you get even more ads spam... The content is poorer then All the other vv. Less voice overs. Wrong voice overs.( 2yr old girl sounds like deep old man) less animation for ages older and old as hell. The “boxes” to interact with things is bad. ( Also had 3 villagers bug out behind the waterfall) the research makes the smallest jump forwards.(Also no new benches, research tables, ect. per rank-up. Research camp is a cluster feck.) when you do achieve something it’s super underwhelming. Why am I using children as snake bait and catching poison frogs? In short if it were not a vv brand game it could be alright... Just like most ftp games it’s killing the good brand it had. It’s content, graphics, sound, story and stability is just so meh. Might as well call it VV IDLE the isles of spam.(not the edible kind).Version: 2.5.6
✓ Not compatible for iPhone X or aboveBecause an iPhone X or other X variants don’t have a home button, there is a single white or black line at the bottom of the screen at all times to indicate that you can swipe up to get to the home screen. And the messages that appear at the bottom of the VV screen are exactly underneath that. Making them impossible to read. It is extremely frustrating and could easily be fixed by expanding the text bar or making it higher!.Version: 2.5.6
✓ Throttled down shell of a gameThis is a dumbed down, throttled down shell of a Virtual Villagers game, made solely for people suffering from Stockholm syndrome after years of free-to-download pay-to-play abuse. I’ve read the developers responses to some of the criticism. They seem to love to point out that it’s a deep and complex game. It is not. Virtual Villagers used to be a group of games that had a lot of complex puzzles that could be solved with a combination of intuition and trial and error. This game completely lacks the intuition. Basically you just wait until you have stumbled across crafting something that shows up in the storage hut that has a use and the “puzzle” solves itself. And the wait time to craft these items is insane. Also, the push add to retrieve anything you’ve crafted glitches nine times out of 10, so you either have to reload the game or you lose what you’ve crafted. It’s really a shame to see Last Day at Work turning to this kind of garbage. But hey, if you’re part of the generation that long ago gave up on meaningful content at a reasonable price, this could be just the thing for you..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Good but frustratingThis is a good game and keeps me playing but it’s very hard to fathom and some tasks (such as making a villager a master in all skills) is proving impossible, I’ve been healing villagers and collecting items all day using the same villager for over a week and the bars don’t seem to be going up! I’ve reincarnated him twice to no avail and aren’t prepared to spend real money so eventually I’ll get bored and stop playing I guess....Version: 2.5.6
✓ Save dataMy villagers died during the tutorial. I’m on iPhone how do I wipe saved data?.Version: 2.3.24
✓ Can’t finish the gameI really like the game, but I can’t finish it. Like, I have everything crafted, but when I place a villager on the crafting hut, it doesn’t give the option of give them the glass. The game is just so boring since I can’t move on. Please fix this! I’ve tried contacting the support team, but they basically ignored my plight..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Require too much moneyTech point are not earned . I finally gave in a said I will purchase the 4.99 for 125 STONES 😂. Lol still to much for a freaking game token but anyway. The stones allowed me to upgrade technology for farming , building etc to help with the CRAFTING PROCESS. I was able to obtain 43,000 tech point from a trade which allowed me to upgrade the farming. Why is the next upgrades 200,000 , 110,000,160,000? To buy even 35,000 tech points you need 300 lava stones and 300 lava stones are $10 , so if I was to upgrade the “CRAFTING “ again ( which We am required to do just to create more combinations so we are able to trade to ACHIEVE MORE TECH POINTS) we would have to spend $50 ONLY for 200,000 tech point that WILL be gone in ONE BUY JUST ONE. Watching the (free tech points videos provides 17 tech points why 17 idk but seriously?.Version: 3.1.7
✓ I’m confusedCan someone tell me why there’s no diversity in this game? Like, the actual gameplay is fun but it’s literally all white peoples (no offense to any white person lol). I’m assuming this game would take place on a pacific island or something so why would they be all white? I’ve noticed this pattern throughout ur games like virtual families. Neither of them have any diversity and it’s kind of tiring at this point. I love playing this game and taking care of these villagers but I’d love to see an update where there’s more villager appearances. I’d love to see some with darker skin and more ethnic appearances. I know I’m not the only one who’s disappointed in the lack of diversity here. Another thing unrelated to that rant: pls include family trees so I can see who’s nursed who lol. I’m not sure how I feel about the ability to breed with whoever u want regardless of parental origins..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Bored of waitingI’m a patient person I committed to the game I waited for potions tech points and lots of other things. Over the space of weeks I maxed out everything made every combination and was initially enjoying it. Then when almost all was complete I waited and waited for something to allow the final piece to be finished. Still waiting after endless trips down the cracks no third necklace no finished game what a waste of life. Everything just takes too long. Making a master gatherer was endless and never seemed to happen after hours of collecting had to repeatedly pay to resurrect my perfect villager. Frustrating!.Version: 1.5.7
✓ Needs improvementLove the game but it crashes every time I collect from the crafting hut and more than half of those times that it crashes I lose the item I was crafting and the supplies I used to craft it...Version: 3.1.7
✓ GlitchesI got the newest iPhone and everytime I craft, it glitches the whole game and closes and that 5-10 mins each time 😞.Version: 3.1.7
✓ Good game …butGood game but not worth watching the ads for very little reward, getting 1 lavastone per ad is not worth watching so I don’t bother, and also have the option to pay to get no ads and reap rewards like ever other game out there, and it also takes way to long to craft stuff.Version: 3.1.7
✓ Too time consuming with minimal to none guidanceThe game looked interesting so I tried it out and quickly I found myself lost at knowing what to do. From the reviews many seemed to have played previous versions of the game so they seem to know at least the fundamentals, but as a first time player I just couldn’t understand what steps to make to improve in the game and to unlock the puzzle pieces. The only improvement I saw was when I waited few hours to log back on so the people have improved at their skills, but regardless of that after almost a week I still didn’t have enough technology or resources to repair more buildings and to start some sort of farming and there is no guidance on what to do to get the right resources. Then due to work I couldn’t play the game for one day just to find all of my villagers dead the next day. A little extreme don’t you think? I’ve reached out to customer service asking if there’s a way I could get some more/better instructions on how to play, but after almost 5 days of no response I’m just deleting the game as it is too time consuming with no real direction or help on improving in the game..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Just thereToo much spending and so slow to get things done..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Kamirah HunterI downloaded this game cause my friend told me it was good, upon selecting my 5 villagers I was rejecting villagers for 60 minutes hoping I would see a black villager pop up, but it never happened me being a black person myself found this very weird & I feel this game lacks diversity it even allows you to change the villagers name but not the skin colour, I think you should call the game “White Virtual Villagers” I mean we have to deal with racism in the real world enough can you at least keep it out the virtual world, I hope you do an update which allows villagers of all skin colours..Version: 2.4.16
✓ Way.... tooooo.... sloooowww.....I like the game concept. I’ve been playing VV games for many years and I’ve liked them all. But I don’t know if I’ll be continuing this one. It just takes way, way, way, WAY too long to do anything. You need 4,000 points just for the cheapest technology upgrade (and WAY more than that for others), and after a couple of hours with 2 out of my 5 starting villagers working solely on research, I only have 217. I mean... it’s gonna take many hours just to upgrade ONE type of technology ONE time. Of course, I could pay to upgrade, but where’s the fun in just paying for everything? I just seems like a lot of work for little reward. I don’t want to complete the whole game in a day or two, but this just feels excruciating. I can’t seem to unlock ANYTHING without upgrading research, so it’s literally just a waiting game. Not fun. Not a fan of this new structure..Version: 2.5.6
✓ Tech points system is too slow!!I’ve been a fan of the Virtual Villagers series for over 8 years now, and I’ve loved all the games, but I only ever found one flaw with most of them - tech points. The tech points system in this game is by far the worst. For example, buying the first tech points for farming costs around 4,000 tp. Directly after, it costs upwards of 60,000. Considering my villagers only make about 200 tp every night, the process literally forces you to spend your hard-earned real life money to barely make a scratch in-game. The process is completely ridiculous; buy lavastones, spend lavastones for tech points, and even then only get 5,000 tp per 50 lavastones. Considering that the lavastones are few and far between, (including buying them - you don’t get as many as you’d think) earning tech points is far from easily achievable. The single redeeming feature of this whole tech point parade is that watching one ad can give you either 100 tech points or 1 lavastone. The game is fun and all, for the first hour, before you realise that there really is so little you can do, as everything requires tech points..Version: 2.0.6
✓ Good but issues using with iPhone 11I like the game but the word bar is right at the bottom and the new iPhones now have a new bar at the bottom to close apps on the screen as opposed to the old phones with the circle button not on the screen. The new bar on the new iPhones just cover the words making it harder to understand what your villagers are doing and the hints. If you moved the word part up a bit or to the top it would make it easier to play. I can play the old games like the old vv2 and vv games and read the words bar just fine as it is higher up and way easier. I would love to see this tweaked so I can give the game a higher rating..Version: 2.5.19
✓ MehI had this game and it was awesome for the first few days, but then one of my villagers died and it was honestly disgusting. They turn in a flipping skeleton and then one of their children comes to pick up their dead body and take it to the graveyard thing. Also the population on the island maxed out and they were all adults but I needed children to capture the blue frogs. They all started to get sick and I wasn’t really trying to heal them because, well, all the healers were sick. I tried to limit the amount of people on the island because there were too many to keep track of and I was left with only 8 villagers. Two of them were girls and they were all over 50 so they couldn’t have kids. I just let them die and deleted the app..Version: 2.5.19
✓ Can’t to in!!What happened with game ? Why I can’t to in the game ??!.Version: 3.1.28
✓ So. Many. Ads.All the ads all the time. So very annoying. Cute game but drags on and on with how long it takes to craft things. Then you open up your crafting menu hours later to find the item you thought you had been crafting for ten hours has in fact disappeared and you’ve wasted all that time. Special holiday events cause you to waste a lot of time crafting “holiday lights” only to give you zero reward after all the wasted time. Lame..Version: 2.5.19
✓ I love this game seriesI’ve always loved this game series, but there are a few things I wish were different.. like, knowing what level technologies unlock what.. or what skill level they have to be.. how to know when certain things will show up, like the fish collectible.. not like what minute of every hour but more like every few hours only during the day.. and the panning for gold.. still don’t know when that’ll be unlocked.. maybe some hints would help. But I love how we can change the names and get tech points by watching videos! Also getting certain things by watching videos.. I also wish we could have different games saved so we could do more than one tribe at a time. I also think having the lemur as a daily prize for when you get to a certain amount of days in a row would be cool! Also if you’ve already crafted something once before I feel like it should say how long it takes to craft and the fertilizer for the garden.. that bugs me.. sorry for the long review but other than that I’ve always loved this gaming series.. and always try the games whenever I can! Thanks.Version: 1.5.7
✓ In-app purchases / adsGreat game, although a little challenging at times but that isn’t a bad thing. My main complaint is the ads. It makes no sense that you should have to watch an ad to use in game currency, especially if that’s currency you have to pay for. Most games ask to watch an ad for free game currency or an ad instead of using it, but to have to do both is ridiculous. I’ve had issues where I’ve watched an ad to complete crafting something then when I go back to the game the item has disappeared. Also as other players have said, it is ridiculously expensive to do some things, made frustrating by the fact that you have to watch an ad to do anything.Version: 2.5.19
✓ .Played for a day, now stuck on a loading screen with error message can’t connect to server.Version: 2.5.19
✓ Too many adsWhile investigating the island is fun and the story is good, there are too many ads, and some of the puzzles are impossible to solve without knowing what they are and at least a hint on what you are supposed to do. Also the crafting takes way too long. Two days is much too long for crafting an item especially if you have to do it three times to complete a single puzzle. Unless you like ads you will not be happy with this. Every time you log in and every time you collect an item from the craft hut you will get an ad, up to 30 seconds long. They pop up at other times too. Sometimes at crucial times. Like when you make a mistake you have to fix right away but can’t because an ad popped up. You will also be asked to spend more money to buy things that will make it a little more convent. You already paid for the game. There are already ads that should not be on it and now they want you to pay more? Therefore I cannot in good conscience recommend this game to anybody and will probably never buy a game from this place again..Version: 2.5.19
