Personal review
There are a couple of differences between this Famicom Disk System version of "Little Computer People" and the original homecomputer version by Activision. The general concept of simulating the life of a person inside a house remains untouched but instead of a man with a dog, this version features a girl with a cat. Again a few mini-games were implemented (e.g. a card game or telling your horoscope). The girl's activities can be influenced a bit with a few icons/commands, which for example let the phone ring. The rest is just watching and after a few minutes you start to wonder why you should actually bother to do this. The concept was interesting when it was new and I fondly remember some scenes in the C64 version way back in the 80s, but I think it always failed as a game and I got instantly bored with this version.
