To be honest I don't mind if the game is that short. I like games that are fun to play, and sometimes that fun can run out if it goes on for too long. There's so much to do though, in terms of jobs, businesses, families etc, that you can extend the game quite a while if you want to.

One thing I've noticed though is that your offline earnings seem to be capped. I earn 1050 gold every 5 mins, but when I switched it on after 8 hours asleep I only had about 10k gold, so I wonder if they cap it so that if you don't play it for a few days you don't come back to a fortune.

Yeah it does seem to be capped.
Oh and I checked, I've played for 10hrs so far (I actually thought it'd be worse than that!), and still seems to be a fair chunk to go.
Would have thought if you knew what you were doing and rushing, it wouldn't take long. But I'm getting as much out of it as I can.

I would have got it refunded there and then if I had a definite answer as to when Sainsburys would get more stock in. The price in Sainsburys is said to be on until 6th November though.
Do you really begrudge a fiver that much?

You're at the same stage as me Jen, I won't tell you how far through you are though.

I think i'll be getting most of the achievements this time, then i'll trade it and rent it later for the last few I don't get now.

Cheers I'm enjoying the mystery of having no idea what's left. Most games I have a rough idea of what's happening when from reading too much on the game, last game that was this mysterious for me was Bioshock.

I've figured out how to get my good rating up. Bigamy. Its expensive but you get 100 good points, and more for kids. Gotta be the most evil way to be good I've found.
