It is a great game with a few new animal options. same characters as tree of tranquility, with a few new ones, but on this one all the girls and guys hook up. festivals are better with a lot of new features for clothing. Prices are a bit higher than before so it makes the game a little more challenging. Does that help?
I agree, that way you have an extra incase something happens to the one you are playing. I have had this extra for long time and decided to see what would happen at auction. So far I am happy, I did.
