Well put, Alan, bravo for having the courage to voice what many of us have been thinking.

Really, what is the sense of buying a game just to look up all the anwswers? You miss so much of the game and the feeling of accomplishment. Has our society become so competitive to be the first or that we need instant gratification?

Sure, we all need help now and then but I prefer a gentle nudge rather than the direct answer. Some of us have been very careful in not giving the solution but rather a hint that will point you in the right direction.

Relax, take your time and get to know Isola and your little villagers. You're missing so much by just rushing through to complete the puzzles and say "I'm done!"
