Moving on again, another CG represented that it is power that everyone wants, which would cause a rebellion over Isola.

This likely took place immediately after New Believers, where you would free heathens with masks that oppose with you. This told about what was going on with the people at Isola. "After freeing the new believers from power, the tribes have decided to bow for their own needs, and felt that they would live on for prosperity." A CG that represented a tribe with discarded masks from the previous game, and more narration came in

"There once was a island called Isola, a island full of mysteries."Īs I expected, the voice sounded the same as the previous games! You know, the Carla Humphrey narrator? I went forth to continue the story, and see what was going on. As I started it up, I got an HD CG of the island Isola, which was where the games took place, and a female narration that said I started up a new game, as I expected the narrator from the previous games to voice it out. It was at 1920x1080 for me, all was good for me. You could set it from 2x speed to pause, set sound and music, or even change the resolution. You see, in New Believers, you had god powers and you were aiming to make your tribe believe in you from the heathens with the masks that were against you. Going into the main menu, it had a CG menu art that represented a goddess that held balances on scales. Normally it would've caused black bars on my laptop if it was 4:3, but this game had no problem with it adapting to 16:9 aspect ratio. Interestingly, this game managed to fit the 16:9 aspect ratio, which the older games ran by 4:3 aspect ratio because 16:9 wasn't that common in the past.
The game started up with the Last Day of Work logo CGI, and the loading screen with a hint on the lower part of the screen. After all that, the installer was done and I went forth to start up the game. Anyways, I started up the installation, simple as that. This time, the logo for this was purple, compared to yellow in New Believers and Green in Tree of Life. "Welcome to Virtual Villagers 6: Dark Rebellion installer"Īs usual, the logo for this was the exact same style as 4: The Tree of Life and 5: New Believers, that 3D revolving position? It felt like it was something new. Interestingly, I clicked it, and I got a message that said Unexpectedly, there was a mysterious tiny button when I looked closely behind the golden logo. You know, HD DVD, that competitor that tried to stand up against Blu-ray, but lacked in terms of power and faded away? The Razer Blade had successfully read the Blu-ray disc, so I got my usual experience with it, the installer with the golden Virtual Villagers logo, and the ability to choose any of the 5 episodes to play. That plastic-comfort feeling when you hold the disc felt much more better than how DVD and HD DVD was made. So, I wanted to find out what he did for the anniversary, so I loaded the Blu-ray disc onto my Razer Blade. The last Virtual Villagers game Last Day of Work has ever made was back in 2012, as Virtual Villagers Origins, which was a remake of the first game A New Home. Simple as that, I looked at the back of the cover, and it even talked about celebrating the 10th anniversary of the game's success!Įver since 2010, I have been always waiting for a Virtual Villagers 6. On the box, it was the logo in gold, alongside the text reading "Anniversary" below. He, for my birthday in 2016 presented me with a game that came in a Blu-ray disc called "Virtual Villagers Anniversary". Now, this story I'm going to tell you right now, was a present by a friend named David. I was their number one fan at Last Day of Work Forums and their fansite, I was "FalconKing88" there, where I would post fanart, comedy, screenshots, and all that cool stuff? Anyways, let's move on to my story, because I think that's enough of my introduction. You know, the one with the masks, which would be New Believers for example? That was the stuff. I played that a lot as a kid, including the 4 sequels so far. This game, known as Virtual Villagers, was a simulation game made by Last Day of Work, released back in 2006.
My name is Ryan, and I want to tell a story about what happened between me and a game that was made in honor of an anniversary.
