I am new to virtual villagers 2 and my granddaughter who is 3 years old and I love to play it. Unfortunately we upgraded our computer and have a problem opening the game. I am presently working with the tech people to solve the problem. Amaya and I look forward to playing the game again. Since I had some time I looked at the forum, I love many of the suggestions for V V 3 especially more puzzles, fruit tress, children pick up collectable instead of walking over them, cattle and chicken, dogs -cats any type of pet for kids,no fighting or army please. mothers can be pregnant and after the birth teach the children and earn these skills toward parenting (dad be involved too)I like the marriage idea also. Love the elder village idea and more huts to build. (anything more for builders) what about a rain storm or hurricane that damages the hut and the builders can rebuid (this would happen in a tropical island) No death please. I like the holiday ideas as an option. I notice someone said they would not pruchase if holidays included so make it an option. Amaya loves naming the kids and watching them play -more games for kids and a school - she goes to daycare and wants a school.
