LDW PLEASE FIX THIS!!!
Sat Jul 23 2011 Darkwire82

This game itself is great, LDW did a great job making sure the bugs were worked out before releasing this but my ONLY complaint is that it's too small (pixel-wise). Please make the interface buttons a little bit bigger and zoom in on the villagers some. Virtual Villagers 4 is the perfect example. The buttons are easy to press, identifying your villagers is easier and overall it's a more enjoyable game. This could easily be a 5-star game if it wasn't so tiny. I've found doing things like trying to push menu buttons, trying to assign task types, etc to be difficult and clumsy on an iphone/ipod touch. I appreciate the zoom function that this game has but it feels broken as when you zoom in the controls go off screen and you have to zoom all the way out to see them again. If you enlarged the buttons and made the zoom to where it just zoomed in on the characters and not make the controls disappear that would help this game immensely.

LOVE THIS GAME PLEASE MAKE A 6th!!! ❤️
Sat Jun 23 2018 your absolute #1 fan

I have played all virtual villagers games ever since I was like 6 and the second came out. I absolutely love it and it is definitely my favorite game series EVER! This is one of the most challenging ones but eventually I beat it. I have to say tho, it is really hard to press the buttons and to identify my villagers. I’m at a max of 90 and I have no clue about any of them. Also a little help? I have done all puzzles and have the max amount of villagers however my max power is 999 and I can’t use earthquake until I get 1 more. Seriously?! What do I do now? 😂 But is like to say that this game is so fun and I absolutely love it. Ever since I was little, playing the second game (and getting frustrated because I couldn’t beat it until years later 😂) I have loved LDW so much and all of their hard work and dedication has been appreciated ever since my childhood and I really hope they can make a 6th game!!! This was probably one of the most challenging but also very fun and rewarding when I beat it. (The only one I can’t seem to beat is 3 and I have no idea why 😂) But anyways thanks so much LDW and I look forward to the 6th game which I really hope you can release!!

Amazing!!!

Ok. For the pain totem you have to use the lightning power. To convert the purple master heathen you need the time warp power you get that power when you reach 500 energy, you will also need a master builder for that. To fill up the lake you have to use your tempest power and the revive power, you'll need 600 energy for revive so you can go fishing. You'll first need to destroy the hollow totem to be able to access the lake, and for that you need to place 6 children inside. To be able to finish the statue you will need all three levels of spirituality and construction. Since you need a lot of tech points for that I get 3 level science to collect points faster.

To dismantle the one for kids u need 5 or 6 to over fill, to get the yellow masks away from fire wood place children or an adult in front of them after u have placed someone people to gather the wood, then make the yellow masks chase the around till u have all u need. The purple mask r masters u need to build ur tech points to get more skills to gain higher points that in turn will help u later on convert the yellow masks, but the purple u need a master of that skill to covert them. The hardest one for me is master builder. As of yesterday was not able to get on after my up grade becarefull do not upgrade follow reviews. Sorry I forgot, the red masks u use thunderbolts, bees also fog and heavy rain LOL

The way I restored the maseoleum was hard and took awhile, but it worked. First I put my master builders on the totem. They got it down about 5% and then the heathens came to fix it. Then I paused the game, moved everyone of my adult villagers (which was like 57) on the maseoluem and then unpaused. When the heathens were walking back I struck them w/ lightning and they ran away. Then I put my master builders back on the totum so when. The heathens came back, they had to rebuild that again. I repeated this for about 3 days. It's hard and it's a long LONG process but it works.

Once you have built the clothing hut, the base of which appears after you’ve gained lv2 Science, three pots of dye appear next to the farm. Drop a villager onto the red dye until they pick it up. Then instantly drop someone on the yellow dye and have them pick it up. They will carry the dye to the pools in the northeast and drop it in, so the water turns orange. When the water is orange, everyone in the pool including the red masked guards, get out of the pool and wait on the side. Get your builders to work on dismantling the totem. Good luck!

Bugs and bad design
Fri Aug 03 2012 Nan26

I used to really like this series of games, but #3 was the last I was able to complete on iOS due to gamebreaking bugs in 4 and 5. The buttons in this one are ridiculously tiny. It's like they just ported it from PC without considering that tiny buttons are nearly impossible to hit correctly on a small iPhone screen - it takes me 4 or 5 tries when I want to set a skill preference, and forget the little arrows to scroll between villagers. I also encountered a bug where the time warp power does nothing but drain energy. It does not speed up the villager like it is apparently supposed to. This leaves two challenges permanently unbeatable. I had a similar problem in 4 where I could never cleanse the tree despite following steps exactly. I'm going to do the same thing now that I did then - delete the game and consider it completed. These games usually have great ideas but poor execution is becoming standard. I'm not going to buy any more of these since it's becoming a pattern to have some essential puzzle be broken by a bug. No fun :(
