this game
Your link is nothing, unless that's the joke.

... tribal simulator ...

You should look into Kings Of Dragons Pass.

It's not free, right?  If it isn't free, I ain't getting it. 
Don't expect too many options for anything, then.  Games tend to cost money.  It's a quality insurance thing, though yeah Kings of Dragons Pass is old.

this game

I guess I'd like it if people would actually link to games as well.

Thank goodness I don't click on links in forums unless I know what they are.

sorr, but the link seems to be broken, lemme try again.

and if it does not work just go to

THAT'S THE GAME I WISH EXISTED.

Aye, Kay12, there are a lot of good free games.  But if you want a lot of specific features on your game AND want it to be free, your options are limited.

Actually, if it's Open Source then it'll be free and you can put in whatever features you want yourself!

(But I know what you mean. :) )

Haha, why C++?  Does the code it's written in matter?  (You might consider DF to be a realistic MC, and that's written in C++)

Java is an easy code to learn and use, but it's simplicity makes it harder to add more complex features and it doesn't compile as well. C++ is less intuitive and harder to learn, but it is a very open-ended code with a lot of features, and a person who's good at C++ can do anything short of bending reality to his or her whim.

Almost right on the nose, there's also the fact that C++ is more resource friendly, unless you're used to doing a "Hello World" in 50 lines....

And... If we can't bend reality with C++, can we do it with Python?

Yeah, but java isn't *that* easy to learn, just more documentation. I think the best language to start in is Visual Basic (the one I learned in :P) then go to C++/Java. Anyways, this is not the place to start a language war. The reason I wanted it to be in C++ is because it compiles in near-assembler and (if written right...) lags much less.
Anyways, I wanna make this game sometime myself :P
...
now about Python...
Lisp...
...
stop. no. if you want start a new thread. :P

A thick bound book with a choose-your-own-adventure engine and an oldschool text-based RPG setting to make the ultimate book RPG.

I'll take a Myst book instead, thanks.
Along with a collection of blank ones and the ink needed to write them.  And a few decades to learn to write them.
