What players say
I feel like a real sicko for enjoying this as much as I did, clicking cheese and trees in this light-brainpower time strategy game. Added more of the series to my wishlist.

I have been playing this game for long time and I like it. The later games seem to be harder and i'm not sure why but that makes them more challenging. My only gripe is that they don't sell all the games as a bundle. It would make it a lot easier to keep up with all the games.
