I noticed in several of the threads people referring to multiple VV games going at what sounded like the same time. I can't figure out a way to do this - if it's possible. Is it? And if so, how? I am sooooooo hooked!

go to the menu and look at the top right corner- you should see change player. will bring up a screen with your name and 4 new players. click on one and start a new game

Oooooh thanks! I'm off to start another village while I wait on this one to come up with enough tech points for level 3 Science. Thanks!

I started all 5 games then realised that I needed a strategy and had to delete 2 of them, then I completed 3 games and am watching 2 of these while started 1 normal and 1 hard - which is quite hard so paused until I have some time!!! This game is soooooooooooo addictive - the staff at work are a tad fed up hearing about it!!

i am having trouble starting new games in hard mode, they always come up medium no matter how many times i try to set it to hard and delete player, create new...still medium. i saw a post that said how to do it but i can't find it now. help please!

The easiest way to do that is to start a new game, then click on Menu => Options. Change the difficulty to Hard, click Done then click Start Over. Your game will restart at the Hard difficulty.
