"When I envision tropical isles, I can't help but think of the 60's sitcom Gilligan's Island with its seven stranded castaways. After a storm beached the S.S. Minnow, they were on their own...without "a single luxury. Virtual Villagers is a similar tale with a few twists. While you begin with seven castaways, none are trained (sorry, no "Professor"). " GAMEZEBO (Preview)

"....gamers in search of a unique and addictive downloadable adventure - especially those who'd like to play God for a virtual thrill - won't be disappointed with this wonderfully crafted game." " GAMEZEBO (Review)

"By playing Virtual Villagers, kids will think about life in terms of what is necessary to survive. They will learn that people need shelter, food, healing and the ability to reproduce. And to better their lot, they need to be creative and scientific. It's a perspective that many young people may not have thought about before playing this game." USA Today

"This time around Last Day Games has a real-time game, a village simulator - a cartoon version of "Survivor," where they are stuck until they die, not just until they are voted off the island" About.com
