The five different characters that you can choose from include the evil witches, the savage wild boar, the greedy farmer, the greedy witch, and the lazy frog. Now it is time to play the game as the adventurous virtual villagers and to help them out, you will need to make some essential decisions that can either add to their strength or ruin their chances. When you start Virtual Villagers 5, you will be shown a few introductory scenes and a few of the game's mechanisms. Do enough to secure your position, and you will soon become the most powerful tribe among all! You will also need to think strategically to build up your town, fight nasty beasts, and find out who has betrayed them in the past.
Guide your tribe to glory by tearing down their most valuable artifacts and ridding themselves of their frightening masks, and making sure that the menfolk have a sufficient food supply. You are assigned to manage a tribe of starving people who are about to learn luck from a witch. Virtual Villagers 5 is the fifth installment of the wildly popular Strategy or Sim game series, and you get to explore all the secrets of Isola, while you reckon with some band of strange masked fellows who don't really believe in you.
