I love VV. I've only been playing it for about two weeks or so. As several people have said, I've already found out that it's different each time because I accidentally wiped out all my villagers when I tried to switch from fullscreen to window mode. I'd got as far as seeing them dig up the treasure and they'd had lots of events happen to them before then. This time the events are different.

I'd made a few mistakes the first time round, so I managed to avoid them the second time and I spent two hours of real time frantically searching for mushrooms to feed my little people because the berry bush was almost bare, the food count had got to 0 and they hadn't even got level 2 farming yet. When they'd amassed enough tech points to enable them to plant crops I felt as though I'd successfully nursed one of my children through a life-threatening illness .

I must admit that I cheated this time round. I'd solved most of the puzzles, but I'd got to a point where I was completely stumped so I googled for anywhere which could give me some help and found these forums. I went to the "spoiler" page and used the tips on that to solve the rest of the puzzles.

I'm glad I found these forums because I didn't know till now that there's going to be a Part 2. I'll look out for that and buy it as soon as it comes out .
