Looking at the reviews, this is a Building Sim, not a Time Management game. Seems to resemble Artist Colony that was given away here early this year or late last year. Time is not an issue. Big Fish rating is 3.6. Steam reviews are 78% positive. However, some things from the Big Fish reviews. There are a lot of reports that the game, at least when it arrived at Big Fish in 2013, was glitchy. Workers that don't respond to clicks the main issue. Though, this maybe a misunderstanding. If it's like Artist Colony, you have to refresh characters (workers here) with food or rest or they become useless. The other things that could be a turnoff, a lot of reports that you have to do things in a particular order or the game won't let you finish. So, that decreases strategy choices. Also, if it is that regimented, replayability may be limited. Didn't like Artist Colony much. By most accounts, this is fun. Will have to mull it over.

Great, fun game. I had forgotten I own it but I'm going to re-install it and play it again.

Not a rush, rush click here, click there game. You proceed at your own pace and enjoy. Great for spending time with your younger children and grandchildren to learn about goals and rewards. Not a bit scary at all, cute as can be.

Perfect for the fall months when its more fun to sit inside out of the cooler weather with a hot cup of whatever you prefer and relax with a wonderful game.

11 out of 10 simply because it is so relaxing, cute and fun. I also found no glitches in it at all. I keep hoping for a sequel but so far, I'm still hoping.

Enjoy all.

bit different then most games. A nice change. nit scary but real cute with these little characters. Really likes it I rate it an 8. Tooke me a while to catch on to the different approach but that is part of the game fun.

A decent game, i must admit, have it from a previous offer in 2015.

For those that don't know, the game is also known as "Ghostville".

failure to open I tried about 20 times thank you for your help respectfully abrush21@ comcast.net

I click the download link, I unzip the downloaded file, it tells me it is successfully activated but doesn't install the game. What am I doing wrong?

Was this offered at some point in the past? It somehow already knew the name I usually use when asked for one... found it slightly odd. Didn't recognize the startup screen though.

I've played this game twice before - I found it to be really fun. Don't be put off by the theme - it's sweet rather than scary.

This is a game where you build up your community, plant gardens, build and upgrade buildings at your own pace. You are set tasks and you get bonus items or money for fulfilling the tasks - but when you do them is up to you.

You assign the workers tasks and they'll keep performing the tasks until they can't - for example they'll keep picking fruit until the tree is empty - then they'll stop working and gradually wonder to the forecourt where you'll find your workers that don't have tasks assigned. (The fruit grow again.)

You can also order new workers, buy and sell things, learn new things and get upgrades based on what you've learnt - cook food in the kitchen etc. The game is flexible enough that you can play as you want, or just keep fulfilling the tasks. However, for the game to end with the final "party" there is a task you need to fulfill.

Attack: There are creatures that attack your main building - they arrive all over the place but they will eventually converge on your main residence building - by your forecourt. You can just wait for them there and click them. This part is not hectic - they don't move fast and there aren't many of them and if you ignore them they'll take some of your resources and go away. Where this is often a negative aspect in this type of game - in this one it just added to the fun and interest of the game.

There's always something happening, a little bit of story, characters and new tasks to keep the game interesting.

I highly recommend this game.
