I have beat the medium level numerous times and now I am trying hard - I have had all my villagers die numerous times on this level, but now I finally have some villagers - I unfortunatelly had to keep having babies cause they all had boys and all my females were dead except 1, so I kept her breading to get at least 2 girls - than I had a barell of babies show up so that added 4 more. My population is at 11 now (cause my children keep dying) and all the young ones are at red health, but yet my two 50 years olds are still in the green, food level is steady at between 50 and 100 - I have level 1 in Medicine, Harvesting and Spirituallity - any suggestions to get my children back in the green so they live to be old. I only have 3 adults, so I have them all focused on harvesting, but that doesn't seem to be working either. And I can't get any more researching points if I don't get my villagers to survive. Any suggestions?

I do really enjoy the challange of hard after beating the medium level.

The game balance needs to be adjusted for hard level, and will be improved when the v1.1 update is released.

That being said, one "trick" is to rotate your villagers between occupations. Farmers always seem to be healthier than the others, so I use farming to nurse failing villagers back to health, and put the healthy farmers at the research table. The only thing that seems to help the children is to have an adequate food supply. To maximize your villagers' productivity, I suggest running the game at slow speed, and have it on in the cradle as much as possible. Several people have completed the game on hard setting, so it's definitely possible!

Thank you, I have noticed that also about the different occupations - I think the harder the job the better the health, I never try to put a villager thats getting weaker in research, they always seem to die faster. I was finally starting to get villagers health back and I had 400 food, but than the harvesting was gone so now they have been down to zero food for over and hour and half on normal mode (I have been trying to get them to pick berries but they don't want to stay with this job) and the field isn't being replenished for some reason - hopefully it will grow soon before they all loose there health again.

I have also noticed that keeping it on the cradle makes it easier to prosper - it seemed that everytime I shut it off the food supply would dwindle faster.

Alright, after I finished typing this the field finally replenished, now maybe I can back to good health - hopefully not to have it happen again.

I am finally at a good point to defeat the hard level too. It took a while, almost 3 weeks just to be able to get to the survival point, than another 7 days to get to the point I'm at now. I have pleanty of food and plenty of villagers. Yeah!!!!!
