| Rule your own country! Get married, have (virtual) sex and (children)! Get a job, join the government, declare war! Its all here! Ok, initially I really, really liked this game - shooting ducks at the fair, going fishing, hunting bears and shooting police target dummies had me thinking this was going to be fun. And it was, briefly. Then I realised that you had to shoot the ducks several times a day or your mood dropped and you lost your job! If you are online a lot this is fine - I am not, and so it wasn't. Also, whilst the mini java games are diverting, they quickly become repetitive. I also found that I got a lot of messages saying that I had timed out and the results from my attempts had not been transmitted! Hence the reliability rating. It is an in depth game, and the community is pretty friendly, but the initial fun and interest, for me, soon wore off in the constant need to shoot those damn ducks. If you are a net addict (and have the free time), give it a go - if you dip in now and again, find something else!!!! submitted by Starshatter on 15 04, 2006 |
