    Played it for an hour or two and wasn't left impressed. Feels like a kiddies version of Sim City, you just keep placing what ever buildings your sims are demanding untill you run out of money. Then you wait a while so your money builds up and do it all over again.

    EDIT: This sums it up well.http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=87312

    • The time I got Tribes Vengeance for €15 in xtra-vision 1 month after release (mis-labelled)
    • Or the time someone labelled the Prince Of Persia The Two Thrones for €30 without realizing it was the Special Edition Trilogy with all 3 games

    I got it and set it up on my PC and my laptop. I was quite unimpressed with it as a game to be honest. I found that it was exactly what the lad above said. Just do what the people demand and the game is simple. I played for a couple of days before it started to first crash on my laptop and then on my pc. I got so fed up with it that I uninstalled it and I will sell it soon.
