Virtual Villagers: New Believers is a particularly clever and challenging strategy game. It's one of the best of the Virtual Villager series. In New Believers, it's a little different from the others: you try to accomplish various tasks with active interruptions, obstacles that scare your villagers away, and try to influence and convert non-believers into believers and therefore join the tribe. It's very well done, and quite challenging. The sounds and graphics and music are very good, too. Another great family game, as well as an escape game. If you like the Virtual Villager series, this is another great one, with a little twist - you'll love it!

About this game
A captured expedition faces masked islanders in Virtual Villagers: New Believers. Deep in the center of Isola, your tribe wakes behind bamboo bars near strange totems, ruined structures, and guarded resources. Guide each villager toward food, firewood, research, building, healing, and devotion, then use those growing skills to open paths through a wary settlement. Helpful work can soften blue masks, while tougher guards demand clever timing and god powers like bees, lightning, fog, or rain. Every repaired farm, cleared totem, and solved village puzzle pushes the tribe closer to freedom.
Virtual Villagers: New Believers adds a sharper struggle to the familiar living village rhythm. The settlement keeps moving in real time, with children gathering collectibles, workers earning mastery, and sudden island events changing the day. Spend tech points wisely, grow food, build homes, and turn devotion into powers that impress the tribe and challengers alike. Convert the masked masters, uncover the truth behind their fear, and guide Isola’s divided people back toward one hopeful tribe.

I truly love Virtual Villagers: New Believers! This game is different than the other Virtual Villagers, and the music is mesmerizing -- so calm and quiet. I tell everyone I can to get this one. How time flies when you are having fun!
I can spend hours playing this game. I plan to get another one of the Virtual Villagers games. The people in the game are so cute.

As usual, the graphics are beautiful. However this one is more challenging than the previous ones.
Virtual Villagers: New Believers is a really great game. I love the graphics and that it has a different take on the other Virtual Villagers games I've played in the past.
Fans of Virtual Villagers will like this addition. Like all the others, the game plays in real-time so your adorable villagers live their lives without you when you leave your computer. The masked heathens give it a more challenging twist than the others, making tasks slightly more difficult to complete. Also there seem to be more objects to find for the collections, giving you more to do while you wait for your little people to finish their tasks.
Virtual Villagers: New Believers is really fun. I haven't played one of the Virtual Villagers games in a long time and this one didn't disappoint.
I remember playing this game as a child, and it was so fun. I recently bought it again, and I am so pleased with it. I like how you can change the game speed, so it runs when you are not playing.
I love these Virtual Villagers games. I have played them all. In real-time, the characters grow up, have children, and build a community. I have tried New Believers and I would like to buy it because it is as beautiful as the others. I am a 77-year-old grandmother and when my grandchildren come over, they can play and they love it. It truly brings me joy because it feels like my Virtual Villagers family. I take care of them. I would like to purchase it because I enjoy these games that last and continuously evolve. Kudos to the designers.
This game is very fun to play. I love the way the game was made. It wants you to play and it gets you interested in the story behind it. I love the whole collection.
It was nice to play an old game again. I wish they would make new ones. May go back and play the others too.
I love the villagers. I have been playing them since they were first released. I could never get tired of them. While each game is similar, each has its own little rewards. Thank you!
Great game! There is a lot to do in this game, and you will never get bored. I love these types of games. It is a great way to relax and build your little village.
I have played this game before in the Microsoft Games section. Completing the whole game this time will be an enjoyable experience. The other Virtual Villagers games, specifically 2, 3, and 4, have also been fun to play. Additionally, Virtual Families 2 is an enjoyable game as well.
