What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Virtual Families is heavily driven by nostalgia, with players praising it as a cherished childhood memory and a precursor to modern life simulation games where families continue living when you're away. However, the game shows its age and some players encounter technical issues, though those with fond memories generally feel it's worth revisiting despite its dated mechanics.
[b] *Mixed Review [/b] I used to play this game at my friend's house on her computer every chance I got. This game is nostalgic as hell, especially since I played it on her family's HP Windows 7 computer on WildTangent Games. Despite being a pay-to-play platform, before Steam, in the late 2000s, WildTangent Games held it down for me. Now that I think of it, I think we stopped playing because we ran out of coins, lmao (this game's also what let us to play house too, lmao). All in all, before Sims and all those social virtual world games, I played Virtual Families. I didn't even know it had sequels, so I might try 2 and 3 since the first game was fun, but didn't really age well.4 found this helpful
I love this game it was a huge part of my childhood. I hope more people play it :)1 found this helpful
NOSTALGIA OVERLOAADD!! remember playing this game on the family computer pretty sure my mom was the one who put me on >_< !!
Probably will refund as it bugs out on my pc, but this is a great childhood memory. I used to watch my nan play this when i was around 7, and always wanted to play it for myself.
10/10 love this game, a huge part of my childhood. It is kinda like the sims but older and sims live their life even though you are not playing. It is great to open the game and find out some change.
If you just had triplets don't expect your hubby to carry a single one...
