Hiya
Juat a few mins ago i was playing the game and was down to zero food.
My crops said 3 mins to go for new crops.
I waited and when it zero mins it then turned into 300 mins for crops without actually producing any crops.
I havent got to level 3 farming yet so cant fish and ive no cocnuts left so im hunting around for mushrooms.
Any ideas of how i can keep my tribe alive for another 300 mins without food?
Thanks.

As to why your food went to zero, my guess is the birds are eating it as soon as it comes up. Have you found a way to keep the birds away?

As far as keeping them alive, you just have to sit tight and wait. If you have not found a way to keep the birds away, you best find out how.

Hi
Yeah ive found how to keep the birds away.
I have already had crops but this time they just didnt appear.
My poor little people

On which speed do you play? you may switch it in 2x speeed and the crops will come faster.
The only thing to do is to watch out for the mushrooms! (if you have 4 (and more) kids, when a mushroom appears pause the game and put all the kids on the mushroom then unpause and you'll get 2 mushies for 1!)
If you can, as soon as you have 10 food, make a stew to keep your villagers healthy!
Good luck!!

Another thing to check is the accuracy of your computer's system clock. If it has been changed (accidentally or intentionally - see this answer in our Support FAQ for more information), the real-time engine in the game will be affected in unpredictable ways and can cause the kind of thing that you're seeing.
