No Technical Support

I have always loved the games in this franchise, however the technical support this time around is frankly shameful. I ran into an issue that halted any possibility of progression. All tech support would say was ‘there’s probably a part of the puzzle you’re missing’, ‘you can purchase hints to help’. and ‘certain level criteria needs to be met for specific puzzles’. I’m sorry, but I didn’t ask for a vague fortune telling. All criteria were met, all tasks completed, and the game itself told me to complete the task that’s broken.
Honestly saddening, I had really high hopes!

Good but needs change

Developers need to change the whole nursing moms are useless while breast feeding. They can gather. Remember curlers living in the wild out their babies in a sling and still help with survival. Ridiculous they do nothing until the babies running around.

Crafting problems

I will start crafting something but if I leave the game and come back a few minutes later, the crafting hut is reset as if I never started the craft. This has happened a lot of times and feels like it’s wasting time in game because I’m crafting one item 2 or 3 times before it works. Otherwise great game so far :)

Game play

The game takes way too long to play unless you’re willing to spend a fortune for what you need to be able to play it. The game itself is fun but having to wait over 24 hours for the villagers to get enough stuff to be able to play is ridiculous.

Roll for time off crafting?? High tech amount for level two?

I have played EVERY virtual villagers from when i was a child and you had to play it off of the computer. I’ve completed each version of the game multiple times and bought the paid versions for my phone. That being said i respect using ads for progressing through the game quicker. However, i am appalled that trying to simply take five minutes off of crafting a product isn’t worth one video. I was on a roll trying to finish a puzzle and wanted to watch a video and afterwards it secured 10% off the time. Of a five minutes craft. That is not worth the ad time versus craft time. As well the tech is really high, which the latest games have stayed consistent with high tech to progress, and I know people have asked for it not to be that way because i do read the reviews people have mentioned and it being overboard as well as playing myself. To me it seems that ivirtual villagers does have high demand to make newer versions as it’s been out for a decade and high popularity, but i feel as though makers aren’t hearing your audience. I would much rather pay a straight one time fee to own the game and support the franchise than pay a lemur and bird to grab poisonous crabs and go down the crack in the earth for me and get 10% off a craft time after watching a minute long video. If im logged on I can do those actions myself. If this was my first interaction with this franchise, I would not finish the storyline. Please genuinely listen to your audience.

Glitchy

I usually love these games!! And I know it hasn’t been out for long, and glitches are to be expected. but I’m on the terradome puzzle, and I keep making fertilizers, however when I drop a villager on the crafting hut to take it to the dome, it tells me there’s no resources to be used, and I cannot complete the puzzle. Also, sometimes in the crafting hut, when I go to combine items, and leave the game, it resets, so it gets rid of the resources that I used to make my new item, but there’s no new item. Usually I love these games! However I’ve never experienced such issues like these.

Thank you for your feedback! Villagers will only interact with items that are relevant to the puzzle steps you're currently working on! If they can't select an item when you drop a villager on the Crafting Hut, it means there are other puzzle steps you need to complete first! The game features an in-game tutorial, and whenever you interact with objects and other villagers, messages will appear at the bottom of the screen that gives you a clue of how to proceed! If you're stuck on a particular puzzle step, you can also purchase hints from the hint system in the game! We hope you continue to have fun with your Virtual Villagers!

Great game but some issues

I always love the virtual villager games and I think the hints are a nice addition whenever someone gets stuck but one thing that is bothering me is for building and gathering it doesn’t let you do some things unless you have enough skill which is frustrating because to gain skill you need to build things but you cannot work on the things you need to build if your villagers don’t have enough skill for it so you’re maintaining huts instead of building new ones and it takes them really long to master a skill.

Fun

Like all the past games. It’s a fun game.

Worst Game Yet..

This game completely misses what made Virtual Villagers great in the first place.
The older games were simple, relaxing, and rewarding. You could progress at your own pace and actually enjoy solving puzzles and growing your village. Now it feels slow, grindy, and designed to push you into spending money just to make any real progress.
The pay-to-progress elements ruin the experience. I’m not interested in constantly being nudged to buy gems or speed things up just to enjoy basic gameplay. That’s not fun—it’s frustrating.
On top of that, villagers are worse than ever at maintaining tasks. Even “masters” only work for a few moments before stopping, forcing you to constantly come back and reassign them. That turns the game into a chore instead of something you can relax and enjoy.
Managing villagers feels clunky, and the overall experience just isn’t as polished or enjoyable as the originals.

I’ve loved these games for many many years, I do struggle with the farming for tech points when you’ve got all your puzzles up to date and there’s nothing more that you can do but wait. I would love a second vine location, and preferably a more visual indicator when they are ready for reharvesting. In previous games it would shorten when you collect it.

I can’t see

I can’t see how much is teach point to upgrade the shop In game iPad plz fix it love the game

Fix the tech point upgrade costs

It’s a nice game but to upgrade using tech points cost too much and it takes days to earn enough tech points to even try to upgrade. You should really lower it and make it like it was in the first and second game.

Waiting is a hassle and no real progress gets made

Takes too long

I did not enjoy this game. It was taking forever to get to level 1 science in order to move forward that I ended up buying tech points only to find out I need even more tech points to get to level 1 innovation. Then after only 1 day of not playing all of my villagers died. There is nothing satisfying about this game and you can’t do anything else while you wait to receive all those tech points. I much prefer more active play in my games.

Visual glitches

I’ve done all the puzzles correctly. I blasted the scrap metal. I grabbed the scrap metal. I made the wrench. I turned off the steam and I still cannot get cold. It’s not registering or highlighted. I still have a pile of scrap metal. And no matter how many villages I drag, the scrap metal doesn’t disappear and the cold does not appear, and I can’t go on with the other puzzle without the coal. Help! so frustrated.

The upgrades cost

I really like the game but if the upgrades could cost less I think some people could get through some of the puzzles quicker.

Stuck

Game is great but there is a glitch in the inventory. For puzzle 7: I can make the glass but when it’s time to collect I hit collect and okay and the glass never shows up in my inventory to make the glass pane.
