Virtual Villagers

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

Virtual Villagers is a casual game created by independent game studio Last Day of Work. It features a tribe of little people who survive a shipwreck and must build a new life on the island of Isola. It has four sequels; Virtual Villagers 2: The Lost Children, Virtual Villagers 3: Secret City, Virtual Villagers 4: The Tree of Life, and Virtual Villagers 5: New Believers, along with the spin-off Virtual Families.

  • Virtual Villagers: A New Home takes place after a volcano eruption destroys the island that a small tribe lived on. They escape in boats and float for days before crashing onto the beautiful island of Isola. Once there, you must build a tribe while solving puzzles to unlock the mysteries of Isola.
  • Virtual Villagers 2: The Lost Children: Two Too Dumb to Live villagers venture into the cave and fall down a waterfall, landing on the other shore of Isola, where they find some lost children. They begin making a new tribe there while discovering more mysteries. A lot of people thought this ended the series, but it made money, so:
  • Virtual Villagers 3: Secret City: A group of villagers venture to the North shore of Isola, where they find an abandoned civilization. They decide to make a new tribe there and discover more mysteries of Isola. It's not over yet folks.
  • Virtual Villagers 4: The Tree of Life: This game received a mixed reaction. The Tree of Life features, what else, a tree of life, that your villagers have to nurture back to health. This was the very first game that you could select what villagers you wanted to start out with.
  • Virtual Villagers 5: The New Believers: The most recent game, New Believers finally makes the player a literal God, as they have to get some heathens to believe in them, a giant flying hand god which is worshiped by the villagers. Guess how it ends. Just take a wild guess.
