I've just had the biggest shock ever.

I was happily letting my villagers get on with their lives. They'd been going for about 1100 hours.

I turn my back for 5 minutes and my 6 year old nephew not only manages to get into the game but also decides to click on start over as he wants to play.

Gone. It's all gone.

Let this be a warning to everyone who doesn't already know - never let a child near a computer unattended - it's not worth the lives of your villagers!!
