Virtual Families

Categories: Demo, Download, Games, Mac Os, Sponsors, Time Management, Windows

Virtual Families is the latest virtual life simulation game released by Last Day of Work, the team behind the very popular Virtual Villagers series,  Plant Tycoon and Fish Tycoon.

In the game, players adopt a character who then begins a life: choosing if they want to marry, deciding whether to have children, furthering their career, all with the help and guidance of the player.

Virtual Families focuses on the true aspects that make a family unique, from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows, displaying life in all its drama and glory.

Virtual Families runs in true real-time, meaning that when the player’s computer is shut off, the game continues to progress, with the family members evolving and growing, based on what the player has taught them, even when no one is interacting with them. The game is set in bucolic suburbia and features a gorgeous hand-drawn scrolling map with a house and garden. It employs sophisticated artificial-intelligence and a varied selection of characters with quirky personalities to adopt and take care of.

There are various hurdles that appear throughout Virtual Families, from moral dilemmas – including whether or not to keep a package that was inadvertently delivered to your home, or if you should send your daughter to Paris for a modeling contract – to real-life situations such as illness, allergies, promotions and chores. Also included along the way are mini-puzzles, where family members have to find hidden objects throughout their home and garden, and trophies that can be acquired after reaching various goals throughout their journey.

  • Runs in true real-time.
  • Unique and fascinating adoptees from 1000’s of combinations.
  • Fully trainable people: shape/adapt their personalities through praising and scolding!
  • Dynamic illness system. Play doctor!
  • Over 100 trophies.
  • Hidden puzzles around the house.
  • Email ‘events’ and other random, unpredictable occurrences.
  • Weather, day/night cycles (synchronized to the player’s system clock, so it is nighttime in the game when it is nighttime where you are).

    when you see a collectible: press space bar so it pauses the game
    1/ drop a person on the collectible
    2/ press twice fast the space bar
    3/ drop a second person on the collectible
    4/ press space bar again: the two persons will sell the collectible and you win twice the price

  20. vicki says:

    For the fires you must get the door knob from sand box, and the peep will fix the shed, then must get key from under weclome mat, there you find the fire extinguisher , and watering jugs to water plants…….

    to make them watch a movie after you purchase from the store just give the movie to one of the peeps…
    to get my peeps to have children i just keep putting them together even if they argue the will get it done unless they have a child under 2-4 and then they shake there head and say it is not time yet

    My children can take trash out at 5 and do dishes pick up socks clean smudges much else they must be 14

  42. j3 says:

    The red ball is handy for gliding around to find items when you do not have a
    child .. it will also sit in your items purchased box, if you need it in a hurry for
    a quick scan ……. I found only one ball in the first profile .. in the top corner
    the second file it was in front of the shed found it by accident ..

    no all you have to do is put the paint next 2 the green bucket near the sand pit and put your person on the hase wen he done he will take the bucket over to the workshop wall and start paintin but if he walks away for a wile the mixture will harden and it wont work
