### 4/5 — Great game

*2024-08-28, version 1.3.1*

Great game, but I can’t work out how to purchase the “full version” that is mentioned now that my tribe is at full capacity. The game itself is very entertaining but I think would benefit if the home screen and instructions was set out better.

### 2/5 — 不是完整版

*2024-02-01*

最近回忆起这款古早小游戏，发现手机可以玩。但是人口最多只能9个，这怎么玩啊

### 4/5 — I really like the game but it would be nice if…

*2023-12-12, version 1.3.1*

I really enjoy playing this game, I like the puzzles you have to figure out and work towards. The issue I ran into is I can’t listen to music or have a show playing on my phone while I play at the same time. I listen to music on my phone to fall asleep, so unfortunately I have stop playing this game before bed :( If you can make your game compatible with music apps or shows, that would be super nice.

### 4/5 — Classic

*2022-07-28, version 1.3.1*

Classic but had to delete cause it drained my battery

### 2/5 — 又是试玩版？

*2021-12-25*

免费始终只有九个人？

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2019-12-04, version 1.3.1*

After playing the first app and enjoying it, I thought this would be a great addition. Sadly the populate limit, means it can’t be completed. After restarting a couple of times because of starvation, I managed to get going only to find my only female is dead and is now left with the 4 male children.  After a couple of weeks to only progress and half way through this app will now make it to the trash and never be revisited.  Shame but not one I can recommend to anyone.

### 4/5 — Good game but

*2019-05-05, version 1.3.1*

I play the lite version and I kinda find it hard because there is no tutorial or it’s just me well it’s a good game

### 2/5 — FOOD!?!?

*2019-01-29, version 1.3.1*

I’m gone one hour with 90 food and 8 villagers they all die of starvation!! The mushrooms don’t spawn enough and the tree ales to long to grow fruit! Fix this and the game would be a lovely game but food is the key to surviving no one will ever have a great time having to pop in every 15 minutes just to make sure the food is still there. People can’t stay in front of their phones all day!

### 3/5 — I wish i could change their names

*2017-01-06, version 1.1.1.1*

Do u guys think u could make it in the app where u can change your villagers names.
Also do u think u could maybe update the graphics some.

### 4/5 — End of lite version?

*2015-06-25, version 1.1.1.1*

So, I need to know if I'm at the end of the lite version. I have got the alchemy lab set up and I need a master builder to draw plans on the chalkboard. Where I am in the game you need plans to progress further. However because of a population limit or something I can't build more than one hut and one hut is not enough to turn someone in to a master builder. My adept builder's skill bar shows that he's almost a master though but his bar hasn't moved for two weeks. 
Is the lite version over? If not, how do I make my builder a master? If you can help labor title: Master Builder help.

### 5/5 — HALP 😫

*2015-06-17, version 1.1.1.1*

I have the pink key, but what about the fire key? I tried putting water into it and all my villagers do is drink the water! I don't know what to do :( and I wanna find out what's behind that door 😫 Somebody please help!

### 5/5 — SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!!!!

*2015-06-17, version 1.1.1.1*

This game is fun! I'd give it 100 stars if I could! Here Is some help:
1.The Robe
The robe is at the stage and looks sort of like a red party hat.
2. The Hive
Make a fire with sticks and dry grass(is behind the house on the cliff) then get the torches next to the hive(it should say "trying an idea") and the villager will take care of the rest

Hope this helps! :)

### 5/5 — Pots

*2015-05-15, version 1.1.1.1*

Where are all the pots to repair the the science lab?

### 4/5 — Great simulation and gameplay

*2015-04-28, version 1.1.1.1*

Easy interface and hooking to play. What are you waiting for?

Also,I hope that there will be an upgrade such that the game screen fits the screens of iPhone 6 and iPhone6+.

### 5/5 — Bill

*2015-03-27, version 1.1.1.1*

### 4/5 — Help

*2015-02-10, version 1.1.1.1*

Here is a little help with food.
1.Make a fire.(very easy)
2.Do you see the stick-like things that are by the bee hive?
3.Drag a villager onto the sticks(it should say trying an idea...)
4.The villager will do the rest 
Hope this helps!!😄😄

### 1/5 — How to feed

*2021-03-18, version 1.3.1*

How do I feed my villager there gonna die!? HELP

### 1/5 — Love vv but.......

*2019-03-24, version 1.3.1*

I love virtual villagers but this is a very bad version. 1 is good but over too soon and never added any content since... which is pity.... 2 is very good but silly prices for additional bits in game. This version is dire.... wouldn’t pay the 99p as not well written at all and very hard to get ahead.

### 1/5 — Why Robe do not fits on Female ?

*2018-05-16*

I tried girls and boys. but only boys can be chief of tribe. huh ok i delete this game

### 1/5 — Blurry

*2014-11-14, version 1.1.1.1*

It is way too blurry, the game itself is pretty good but I hate the blurriness! I can't stand playing it anymore, please fix it! Just like virtual families 2.

### 1/5 — Dry Grass

*2013-09-02, version 1.1.1.1*

I have all of the sticks on the fire pit, but it says that I need dry grass to light the fire. Where do you get dry grass??? Help me please, my people are dying!!!

### 1/5 — фууу

*2013-03-26*

Ну и ну что за дурацкая игра? Не то что Туземцы

### 1/5 — How to get food

*2013-03-25, version 1.1.1.1*

Get someone to make a fire with the firewood. Find the beehive near the cliff thing. There, it says that there are burned out torches. Put them into the fire then go to the beehive. The smoke calms the bees. Then get a villager to harvest honey. The villager will progress in farming.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2013-01-01, version 1.1.1.1*

It's horrible!!!!!:(!!!!!! It took 2 days just to load!!! I would give it 0 stars if I could!!! Yep, you heard me, 2 days,2 days!

### 1/5 — Gud game

*2012-10-01, version 1.1.1.1*

How do u get people on da lift? And I got to level 2 for the nature thing and I can't find the introduced plant

### 1/5 — Where are the torches?

*2012-01-25, version 1.1.1.1*

I looked at the other reviews and they sayd to get the honey out of the bee hive you have to light a fire drop a person on it and bring the torch.             
I lit a fire and drop a person on it but all it says on action is dancing poorly pleaaaaaaaase hhheeeeeellllllp!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Virtual Game

*2024-10-03, version 1.3.1*

Love this game. Wish this was available on Samsung

### 5/5 — อยากให้ทำต่อ

*2023-08-18, version 1.3.1*

จะมีการพัฒนาต่อไหมครับ อยากให้กลับมาทำต่อหรือทำแนวนี้มาอีกครับ เกมส์เก่าแต่สนุกมากครับ
ส่วนตัวติดตามมาตั้งแต่เด็กครับ

### 5/5 — Help me!

*2021-12-02, version 1.3.1*

I can't solve puzzle 11 like a game bug.

### 5/5 — A Classic

*2019-06-02, version 1.3.1*

I've played VV3 on and off for years and it literally never gets old. The game is so complex and the storyline fascinating. It's legitimately challenging if you don't look up all the answers and I like that it takes more investment than just clicking around. I really don't have any criticism other than that I hope more virtual villagers games come soon and that I wish we could learn more about Isola. :)

### 5/5 — 童年的游戏

*2018-07-04*

没想到小时候一直很爱玩的游戏被移植到ios上了！开心！

### 5/5 — Hilfe gebraucht!

*2017-01-11*

Kann mir einer sagen wie man das Alchemielabor vollständig reparieren kann
? Ich habe alle Vasen usw. eingesammelt wie geht's weiter? Brauche dringend Hilfe! :'(

### 5/5 — Awesome! And some comments...

*2016-11-14, version 1.1.1.1*

Ok so, I love this game! It's pretty cool. But, there are some questions and comments I have.....

1. Where is the last pot for alchemy? I have a master scientist that is repairing it but I can't find the last pot btw, the other pots are up on the hill by the green thing where the chief stands, by the beach, where the kids use the bath room, and by the huge mud/dirt patch.

2. If your villagers are hungry, calm the bees and/or plant the seed and you will get a fruit bearing plant.

3. This is funny. I have a 2 yr old chief, and she runs around doing "kid stuff" but it says she is "contemplating tribe".😋

4. My suggestion to the makers is to do island events more, and to give more hints on how to advance the civilization later in the game. Also that nursing mothers can work

5. Question. What do kids that are apprentices do? I have a child apprentice farmer, but she just runs around and doesn't work when I set her to a farming task. 

Thanks!
Peace out!✌️

### 5/5 — Memories

*2016-10-08, version 1.1.1.1*

### 5/5 — Great But....

*2016-01-01, version 1.1.1.1*

I love this game.it has a lot of cool stuff and u never get bored. But I have been having a problem where I can't see the keys themselves and when I try to do a job or something it says "ouch, the gem is to hot" but I've been watering it and it's been days.i don't know what to do because it doesn't show the gem on the screen. If this is a glitch please someone fix it so I can continue playing.

### 5/5 — What???

*2015-12-25, version 1.1.1.1*

Please explain to me how a 6 year old girl in my tribe became chief.Totally awesome though.
