I disagree! I've played many games since I bought Virtual Villagers and everyone is different, every villager is different.
Each game I have different personalities to train (or crack a whip at if they're lazy). And gameplay on normal and hard are very different from easy.
Just start again with a new game and enjoy a whole new experience! The game is far from a waste of money! The beauty of games like VV and FT is that they never really end, and the villagers themselves will keep doing new things every day. They are a complete hoot to watch on your completed games while you try again on new ones.
The game will keep my occupied completely and I'll keep enjoying it greatly until a sequal is released.
But, of course, that's just my opinion...
