Not sure what else I can do

I have completed all the research, there's tons of food (until my next "mighty storm"), plenty of people and still puzzles 10-12 are unsolved. I've dragged people repeatedly around the island and don't see any other things they can act on, except that darn boulder which won't budge. I don't want to cheat but is there anything else that happens at this point, or am I just watching my little villagers live out their lives without discovering anything else? Thanks!

There are (obviously) still things to do. In addition to the puzzles that remain, Island Events will continue to happen, bringing new "happenings" to the village. If you're really stuck and want some hints, check out the topic near the top of this forum entitled "Help with the puzzles" and you will see how to get all the help you need! You can ask for a nudge in the right direction, or detailed solutions.  We don't put solutions to the puzzles in the forum because people have asked us not to, even if we tag it as a spoiler.

I agree with that policy, I wouldn't want to find out what happens in the end unless I really am ready to give up!
Now I'm wondering if this game and the tycoon games are any fun to play another time around once you know how the puzzles get solved and the magic fish/plants are found!

I've been playing all of LDW's games for a long time, and I'm still not tired of them. I must be on at least my 100th game of Village Sim, and there are still new challenges I can set. For example, I recently "finished" Village Sim with only 26 villagers and no deaths. I say "finished" because you can't complete one of the puzzles until somebody dies.  Most people that I've chatted with in PMs have played the game several times, using different strategies and settings. The puzzles are a lot less stressful the second time around! I've also found every species of fish there is in FT and earned over $4 million dollars. I'm working on the same thing with PT! There are lots of things to do with these games besides playing them through once!

I quite agree. I keep playing and playing all of them. Except the Little Palm Pet. I did finally tire of him/her. But Fish Tycoon, Plant Tycoon and Village Sim never have gotten old so far. I just pause them for a day or so if I need a break. Keep up the good work LDW. Can't wait for the next thing you bring out.

Hi all,
All I'm doing now is keeping my village going. I suppose I could start it again, but I'm fond of my little village and, oddly enough, I'm happy it's sucessful! I divide up the skills evenly between healing and farming. Since I'm maxed out at tech levels, they don't seem to want to do research, so I don't make them do it. There is also no way they can do construction, except for a couple of relatively rare situations, so I don't list that as a preferred skill unless I need it.
As I said before, on breeding, when the population gets low enough, I make a few of the guys "trainee breeders" (drag them together with a female until you get that kissy noise), and put that as their preferred skill. Then the population keeps going.
My favorite event - I call it the festival! Periodically, in the central flat area below the berry bush, all the villagers come together and dance! I run the game speed on fast mode, so the dance doesn't last that long, but it's fun to see. Since I've been running the game for so long - I've seen a lot of festivals!
Oh - I always play the game on the "easy" setting.

Hi Barbara, I don't know what to do. I have a population of 23 and enough food to export to Russia. I have the obvious 6 puzzles solved and have maxed out on all the tech levels except the last building level. They are all busy little healthy bees, doing what they should with occasional trips to the laundromat and trying to push the boulder or an occasional glance at the field. My question is, "What do I do now??" Gail

Most of the puzzles are dependent upon some combination of Village Tech, population, and other puzzles. The best thing to do is to keep your tribe healthy and fed, and continue to have them research new technologies. After every tech purchase, drag one of your adult villagers around the island and look for new things that they can work on. People have asked us not to put solutions to the puzzles in the forum where they can inadvertently run into them. So, you can take a look at the post referenced in the link below to see instructions on how to get help with the puzzles in as much or as little detail as you like! Help with the puzzles
