Oh man I can hear some of those silly sound effects just seeing some of these buildings. Thank you πŸ™

Used to play this in the computer lab at the local community center. I loved being able to see what the individual people were doing and thinking. It was the first time I saw that level of sim. Way before "The Sims" took it to the extreme.

Never tried that one when I was a kid. I probably would have enjoyed it.

YES! Imagine how tasty those green fuzzy pellets were. And the lil spider guys were fun, you could play as them fro memory.

I remember the first time my colony got indoors and discovering the powerpoints electrocute you.

Recently watched a Letβ€˜s play of it and it looks like a really unique and charming game.

I am surprised no one remade it, it seems like a formula that could appeal to a lot of people (not only kids, but even those looking for a more "cozy" experience).

The haunted house in the foreground reminds me of this gem from the same era.

they don't make haunted houses like they did in the 90s man.
