Virtual Villagers is a famous casual game. You are a god rules over a village on Isola isle. Your villagers will have to survive and reach the certain goals for you to beat the game.

The goals of your villager usually involve solving puzzles and collect items. Of course, they must survive. In Virtual Villagers 5, their goal is to deal with heathens. They must convert the unbelievers to believe in you, their god.

The unique mechanism of Virtual Villagers is that when you turn off the game, or your PC, the game is still go on, just like a bowl of goldfish. If your village was thriving, leave it for a few days and come back to see lots of villagers dancing around. However, if your village was starving, leave it for a few days and come back to see lots of skeleton all over the place.

This small farm will feed your people
Virtual Villagers always famous for ease of access and this chapter is no different. Controls are easy and the game is challenging at first and start to ease out later. In the first few days you will have to work quite hard to get food. After you get the farm working, things are more comfortable.

Yeah, look like the same old Virtual Villagers, aye?
Virtual Villagers 5 is just another Virtual Villagers in terms of visual and acoustic. The graphic sprites are the very same to every other chapter of Virtual Villagers. Sounds and songs present in the game is also the same. It is good as every element is “Just right” but this shows lack of evolution and becoming boring.

However, the puzzle and game-play is, still, proved to be fun. Getting your village build up and watch as your villagers thrive is simply fulfilling. The chapter adds more challenging in terms of heathens, your villagers’ opponent. These people will chase your villager running but they never kill each other off. This make a game more challenging, sometimes frustrating, but not in an impressive degree.
