ds, who's turning 9 in two weeks, has just come & given me his (rather jumbly) brief for his computer game idea - which seems to turn on selecting a deprived area of the world & raising funds, building hospitals & setting up schools. There's a piece of paper on the kitchen table with some spidery plans: eg you can choose to place your ads: on ITV4; in The Guardian; on the Tube; or in the Sun. A nurse costs more to fund than a science teacher; and literacy teachers appear to be a bargain.
So, on that snapshot - what "Sims"-type game do you recommend? (A friend of his has Theme Park World & that goes down well. So frivolous is prob. OK - we don't need to be entirely priggish.)
