I bought this together with Space Colony. I love this kind of manegerial games. But Staropia is definitely much more enjoyable to play for me. You build the industrial buildings to produce, shops for leisure on the 2nd deck and this bio deck on the top deck where you change the temperature and humidity to grow different plants that deliver you different goods. It reminds me of one of my favourite games, Theme Hospital. I got bored of Space Colony after only two days, didn't really like the micromanagement of each of the staffs. But this, I'm still getting my money worth after two weeks.
I quite enjoyed the games. The cheesy sideline with Dan back in New York made me chuckle and was a good way to break up the story a bit. I had a dificult time finding the pilot for his blood though and took me a while to realise I need to lower that lifted barrel looking thing to its original position for the pilot to appear (cause he's gone in it!). I like the ending and it makes me want to play the second series straightaway. There's still so many questions left to be answered.
It's a new and cute concept but I got bored of it very quickly. The game is very simple. Leaving me wondering if I've missed the fun part when I read all the good reviews. Anyway, it's a max 3 hours games for me.
am I the only one? surely not. the game crashed constantly on my Win 7 64bit. I just stepped out of the tower after TWO freaking hours spent ALT+CLT+DEL to close down the program and restarting it!
It's a very enjoyable little RPG with cute characters and storyline. Plenty of funny dialogs with all the companions. Nothing complex.
I didn't expect much when I downloaded the free games. I didn't pay much attention to the graphic and sound. The puzzles are confusing for some.
