PC version was far better

I bought Life on PC awhile back, just before migrating to Mac. I figured the game would be the same. Its not.

Both based on the original, but the PC version was a bit more interactive. When suing an opponent, you both had to rearrange picture tiles to recreate a scene from memory. (It was difficult, but not impossible, to beat a computer opponent.) When winning/losing money, you were presented a "scratch-off" card to see what prescise amount (within a range) you had won/lost.

This made the game -much- less tedius.

As a side note, the PC version also allowed you to choose the gender of your spouse, for those thus inclined. The Mac version assumes a hetero partner. Not a basis for rating the game, but some folks might want to know.
