    The Cost of Life. You're a struggling Haitian family just trying to survive. It's not easy. Even when you learn the secret it's still not easy.

    OK - I give up - what's the secret?

    While Haiti is indeed a poverty stricken nation, I'm not persuaded that the rates of illness the game's characters contract that require medical attention really reflect reality, else the entire island would have died off millenia ago.

    Nonetheless a clever game.

    One secret (Scroll over the rest of this post to find out) DON'T waste money on education. If you have one person volunteer, you'll get education for everybody much faster and cheaper. And evenutally people stop getting sick.

    But yeah, they seem to spend most of their time getting sick, don't they?
