Sort of how their living and attempting to get above the poverty level is pointless eh? That's what the point of the game is. I think sometimes we translate American poverty [which is often because of laziness, addiction, wasting money, etc.] into the third-world country's type of poverty. I think in reality they are much different. People in the deserts in Africa can work their tails off and still only last "190" rounds.danadelfos wrote: Okay I figured that game is pointless!!

Well, for one thing, you accept the offer that you get, like say on the first round you get a shed, then you have to go to the next round with 0 dollars. then you get a offer. then you get chickens and, if you have money left over plant fields. I also had eight people in my family.Pepper Doyle wrote:Bradley Doyle wrote:I did pretty good, I mean how many of you guys got an elaphant?

8 people? Holy cow! Your living expenses would have been really high! I haven't recieved any offers yet, because I'm still doing ok. So far I'm in round 14, with a shovel, shed, and well. I have 2 dollars for this round, so I predict someone dying soon.
P.S. Someone died of starvation and then an airstrike killed one of my family member's working in the drug lord's opium fields! Where is the justice?

I've been up to 200 or more this game. I'm in the same one, round 28. I think the key, something I hadn't done until today, is to BUY TOOLS. The shovel and scythe increase the money you recieve for your crops! And never turn down money offers! I turned down the drug one once for moral reaons and because I thought I would be punished in the game for growing drugs. Not so.

Well one of my sisters likes this game as well, so whenever she started to get poor I would come take over and get her to about $1,000 dollars or so. I think the best thing to do is to buy a whole bunch of different varieties, corn and wheat, etc. Always have 1 chicken and 1 pig. Only do about 6 crops at one time. Ummm don't buy any elephants or tractors or the $750 equipment, because it will just be stolen. I think that's it.Pepper Doyle wrote:danadelfos wrote:Yay 190 rounds!!
