Village Sim will be released Monday morning, April 11th.

(It is in fact already available, by necessity, at a couple locations).

You can get it here from our own website, or from one of our fine distributors.

Have fun!

Okay that just made my day - I love the other Sims you guys have and starting the 11th I have some busy and hectic times coming up at work and having a new Sim to play with would be EXCELLENT...Can't wait!!!

Um - woo & hoo!!

Is there going to a discount for those of us who own the other titles?

Yes.

When will that be? I'd like to buy it soon... ;-)

Can you install version 1.0 over version .9? What are the feature differences? Perhaps I should download the file and see if there's a readme!

I have purchased both Plant & Fish tycoon, and am awaiting with baited breath on getting Village Sim. I look forward to getting info on the discount (I still have a copy of my previous order!)

We're sending out the notifications to our existing customers. The emails are taking longer than we had expected and should all be out by Tuesday afternoon.

Just an FYI -

There is no readme with the newest version. I know there is a way to set up newer versions without losing the old one though so I'd imagine if you post asking on one of the general boards someone might see it faster and reply.

And just keep waiting for the e-mail - it's worth it! I was so excited to get mine yesterday. I was surprised too! I didn't know they'd offer a discount so wee! As with my other Sims from LDW I spent a good chunk yesterday working on it and now this morning am excitedly going to check and see what my little villagers have been up to while I was sleeping. These games are so cute and this one is just great! *hearts LDW and Village Sim*

What about thosse of us who couldn't wait and bought it yesterday before the email?????

There was a document in the zip file, but it does not load onto my T3 as I don't have a sim card. Don't know if that will help with any of the explanations.

As far as the differences between versions go, I think they have mainly been bug fixes, so a higher version should work better on your palm

<addition> and there should be no problem in installing a newer version over an existing game (or at least that is what Arthur has been saying)

We are trying to get the emails out asap. There are a lot and it takes hours and hours for them all to go out.

If you are already a customer of ours, and you bought the game before getting the email, write to Carla and she'll figure something out for you.

Any plans for a Pocket PC version?

Here is what Arthur said: "We still do our games first on Palm for the time being because Palm is the trickier platform to keep happy. It has a lot of technical hoops that we have to jump through. We write our games with PPC in mind from the very start now, so bringing it over should be quick and easy." Stay tuned!

Good because I have an Axim and the Palms. I like the games on the palm but the fish tycoon looks so much better on the axim that I prefer it. Keep up the good work.

I purchased Plant Tycoon, but didn't get a coupon.

Contact Carla, and she will straighten it out for you.

Thanks!
