I found the game a bit hard to get into, at first (it doesn't really hold your hand, though I've seen 'hints' in the user interface that I missed before or just weren't there before?).

But now that I've played (and lost!!!!!) a couple of games, and I got a long game going as a police officer (damn this one was easy - no money problems for the first time! I was swimming in the money so much that in the end I gave up the police job - though the money dwindled faster than I would have thought it would).

This game was the first that allowed me to complete loads of commissions, too.

I noticed that there seems to be a cap on the number of followers (is that so?), and that you can't recruit any more if you've reached the cap. That seems silly, I think you need to be able to replenish your herd.

Also, the flood of restlessness is really hard to keep abreast of.

Well, those were my €.05
