I enjoy the details, how the water reacts when you click it, how the villagers say "whee!" or "Hey!" when you pick them up. Someone(s) put a lot of thought into this game and it shows.
Replayability would be enhanced if there were more mixed and unpredictable random events, especially after you get some levels going for the villagers. I liked the surprise typhoon in VV1. Nirvana is rather a drag for too long.
Being able to teach the kids to pick mushrooms reliably would be a good thing.
I noticed some say kids enter VV1 in a crate when need be (I never had that event happen). Is there some provision for help to enter if you get down to one villager in VV2, or all one sex? That would be nice, as it is sad to have to send the lone one to CyberHeaven and restart through no fault of his own. That happened on one play of VV2... they starved instead of fishing while I was gone for a day... d'uh! No algae yet, so why did they forget how to fish???
Very good job, though, Gang. I look forward to VV3 with curiosity.
Thank you for your work!
