I don't remember it - I had an Amiga at the time - but I remember similar games.

You must be the only one here who hasn't played it. I've played it myself during middle school, when my computer was so out of date that that game was about all it could handle. It was simple, boring, yet somehow addictive in a weird way. I laughed for a good five minutes when I relized at one point I had more people then sets of clothes. :lol:

Give the lad a break - he wasn't even born when it was released.

Having said that, I've never heard of it either.

Think that's bad? I once had five people in the middle of winter. One night a thief came in and stole all the clothes. I didn't have the money to buy any more, so they spent the next three or so months wandering around the US with no clothes on. Then they all fell into a river and drowned. :lol:

I played it in school when I was a kid in California. We had computers starting in kindergarten. For the time, it was a rather engaging game.

Well, whenever I was low on time and couldn't make it before I had to leave I'd drown everyone on purpose.

Also, I used to put in the names of people I had crushes on and then not buy them clothes at even the start. I was such a perv :lol:

EDIT: Did I say was?

Ah, the hilarity of telling them to ford a twenty foot deep river that's about a mile wide. :lol:

Which version?
I'm only 21, but I have played up to version 7... I think.
Of course, the old versions will not work on my current computer, oh well.
5 and up still work.
