vote for me ?

don't think I'll be voting for this game any time soon ! What were they thinking?
Seemed to me, the whole time during the looooooooonnnnnggggg 1 hr. trial, that Miss Teri Tale creators rushed this one out to jump on the **** game phenom that is happening now, or maybe for the elections (?). I found the game cluttered and confusing. Big disappointment is my own opinion for this one. I actually liked the first one, and although at my age, it's not hard to confuse me, this was one frustrating trial.

I found it frustrating as well. Only played a couple of minutes...the first page had me scratching my head. As an avid and advanced HOG player, it didn't make sense to me and i couldn't find any instructions as I obviously missed the first ones. I agree that they possibly were trying to compete with the "higher level" games than the first Miss Teri. Glad this had a "free trial," as it will not be going on my gameboard!

Wow - that's too bad that you two didn't have good experiences with it. I found I really enjoyed it. I didn't buy the first one, although it was a close thing, and I haven't yet bought this one, although I'm still debating. I thought it kept with the general feel that the first one had and I had fun throughout the hour trial. I give it a 7.5, mostly for lack of replay (I tend to find that's true of most HO games) and because I just can't get *that* excited about most HO games.
Overall, I did like it though and it's one of the first HO games in a while I was tempted by.

I agree about the instructions. I mean, I ended up messing around with it to figure it out but when you are on a 60 min free trial, messing around is the last thing you want to do. I want to dive right in and see if I like the game rather than figuring out how to play it.

I thought it was awful. The grammar was really poor, I don't want to have to play some stupid mini-game where I groom a dog and buy it accessories, although to be fair, you can at least skip those bits

Don't even get me started on who thought it would be a good idea to have a hidden oject game about politics, either

I agree, I'm only half way thru the trial, and I don't understand it that much. And I'm a avid HOG player. The first one was so easy. The instructions are terrible, what in the world do you do with the voters box. I've been in it twice and the last time it wouldn't let me out!!!! Don't think I'll be buy this one..

I spent the first 15-20 mins of the trial to try to figure out how to play. Then, I quit. There's no instruction to get you through that mishmosh of a page.

I LOVE HOG, but this one I'm skipping altogether. Too bad, cuz I liked the first one.

Sorry, NOT voting 4 you, this time.

I loved it for it's difficulty, but once I purchased the game, it froze up. Anyone else experiencing this?

I just purchased it and haven't had a problem.

Usually rebooting helps when games freeze up on me though. For me it's when the commit charge gets too high.

If your game is freezing and rebooting doesn't work, uninstall and redownload. Hopefully, it will then work. If not, Run and save your dxdiag file. then send an email to Tech Support and attach the file. They're great and will everything they can to help. Good Luck.

I liked the first one a lot better than this one, I bought it because it goes toward my coffee mug. I suppose I'm about 75% through it, I'll finish it eventally but it is rather boring.
