Yeah, it's like a giant social sandbox. This game is the internet's version of the Stanford prison experiment.

I found some copies of the game on Amazon.com. The merchants say it's brand new and never been opened. Not sure if "want" or "do not want." I've been screwed by Amazon.com in the past, but this game... this game looks too good... it would be well worth the risk I think. If not I'm out $20, which is really nothing.

I've found out about it from a friend about 5 years back, and I've borrowed the CD from him to install it.
Hope it works out with Amazon for you and if it doesn't pirate it

A world full of scary, hostile, mean, people whom I can come to know, love, and help? Sounds like good motivation for me!

Plus, I've wanted to own a farm without having to pay the government taxes. ^^ And be a missionary.
