Yup, I saw it yesterday. They gave VV3 a well deserved 4.1/4 star out of possible 5.
I personally wouldn't want LDW to adhere to
GameZebo's CONS (listed in the quote below). I love the game for its simplicity and for the interactions with each villager. It's not as we are dealing with hundreds of characters and skill levels. Not everyone has super-fast computers, or access to cable, ADSL or satellite. If the game becomes to automated it looses its appeal, in my opinion. Patience is what's needed, not more atomization.
But, Isola is not without its rocky shores. Zoom capability would be a welcome feature to augment map view, as would the capacity to group villagers by task. An “Extra Fast” game speed would assist for speeding through some of the more tedious aspects of play. And, the ability for children to gather collectables without assist would be a thoughtful extra. An increase in resolution wouldn’t hurt either.
