(I know a lot of been complaining about the statue puzzle but I haven't gotten there yet)....


I hate the clearing the rubble and repairing the bath puzzle...It takes way to long and just annoying. And even if this isn't a puzzle building huts is a pain too. Clearing the leaves are a bit annoying but not like the other 3.

Yeah, VV isn't always an 'instant gratification' game! But, I think it makes you way happy when a project is done since it takes so much time, and effort on part of the villagers, to get done.

My least fave puzzle was the statue. I just found it annoying. But that's just my opinion.

I hated the statue but I yelled for joy when I came back and saw it was done! So the longer the wait the happier we'll be when we finish it!

The statue was also my least favorite.

Well, the pace of life is slow and laid back on the island, part of its charm I think. But patience is hard to come by when you're not feeling well, so I hope you're feeling better soon, Mocha.

i also didn't like the statue, but since it took so long to get it done and all my builders died, i am beginning to think that puzzle 15 is my least favourite!

Just to let LDW know, I did not mind the building projects so much. What I do mind is the one missing rare feather collectible I still have not been able to locate after days and days of searching solely for the one feather and using the Chief.

I will do a rain dance by copying the villagers

my least favorite was the rain puzzle, no. 5.

That statue puzzle -- I was soooo thrilled when it was finally done!

Oh, and the last one -- can't seem to do it correctly. But that's my fault, not the fault of the game.

Due to lack of planning my tribes work crew, I had to delete them and start fresh. After that it all went pretty smooth...

While the villagers celebrated the completion of the statue puzzle with a long and well deserved aromatherapy bath. I was only too trilled to see it all work out so well. Not to mention what's on the other side of the door. Beautifully done LDW

Given the ability to do the rain-dance at a time when most needed, would help lessen the tribes preoccupation with the food-bin. But -- perhaps it would make the game too easy!

I have since learned that it was the game itself, The Chief wasn't 'sticking'. So LadyC told me to download Arthur's v1.00.04 update. Now, the Chief is overseeing the work as he should and the building is still going slwo, but it is going. And I'm sorry, it is still taking too long.
And thank you for your good wishes.

grrrr statue puzzle. I can't get any of my workers or chief to do anything now. Workers are Master Builders and they are really old. I'm afraid they will all die. Statue is at the top of the path; everything was going great and now nothing. I have nothing left to build so I can't get any others up to "adept" so they can start moving it. Any suggestions???? HELP!

Speaking of the statue puzzle, I just downloaded the patch and I'm still having problems.

I have the chief and a master builder up on the ledge near the door, anything I'm missing? I'm on the top of the path, near the door.

I have 3 restoration also.

My ststue is nearly complete, my Chief died and no-one seems to want the job, have put all 56 villagers on the robe, have all tried it on and all said no!!!! FRUSTRATED OR WHAT...any Ideas?

Maybe one of your nursing mothers is to fill the job of chief.

LOl... though nursing mothers won't try anything, so will wait and try a new offspring..thanks

Bonadea...have you taken your master builder to the chalkboard to make up the plans?

charlie17...i think they mean wait till the mother has given birth and try them then....

i found the statue puzzle very frustrating until i DL the patched version.
way better

note to charlie: maybe one of the infants and you have to wait till mommy puts him/her down

patricia57....where do I get the patch version?

see the sticky topic by arthur Version: 1.00.04

adding a link Arthur's Post

moving the rubble was tedious and because of the collectables i stayed on it. still didn't get them all, so guess i have to keep watching for them. everything seems to take a long time and slow. i'm on fast and it's still seems slow. on my first game, i've gotten past the statue to the next hut. got all my tec and just trying to find a feather and a couple turtles. was really glad to see that hut appear, gave me some encouragement. well, cheer up everyone, its still a lot of fun. sorry you are in bed, mochajew, pain is not fun, take care

Gibbler,

Yes, the plans were drawn. I double checked too just to make sure.

I had read to stand near the door at the top. So I had been trying all around there.

Then later I was mating two up the trail to get there and finally found the right spot to get them started.

Now's it's saying I need more leadership, so I think/hope I'm good.

Thanks for responding! I may need more help later.

bonadea.....ok you're welcome. Now if I could find someone to give me a "good" link to version 1.00.04 I'd be HAPPY! lol I downloaded one and was so excited, everything was working great once again, but it was just a trial version. Talk about a letdown lol

The link is to the trial Windows version. Your activation code that you received when you purchased the game will unlock the full version. If you have the Mac version, follow the instructions in Arthur's sticky post about v1.00.04.

At least you all have gotten started on the statue puzzle. I cannot seem to even get my builders to begin work on it.

Same but its worth it, when its finished it looks fantastic

I think weatherdancing is the one I least like. It's good fun to watch them dance, but you really need to be able to summon rain in the early game when food is very tight. You are unlikely to have enough villagers with the right skill levels or have reached the needed tech level until later.

just wanna say got a chief so when he gets old enough can finish the statue HURRAY....then thats me all done finished

charlie, your chief can direct the work no matter what age

I don't like the rain dance one. It was kinda point less to me.

statue puzzle takes too long and if you leave the game they don't seem to stay working on it.They go to drink or take bath.GEE

I have no clue to 12th puzzle. Anyone know? I dont have all the collections.don't know if that is relevant or not. Please help

Drop a master doctor in the bath...

The statue is the worse. I had 15 villagers working on it and it still took 4 days. Way to long for a puzzle. I kind of dread playing the game again because I don't want to deal with the statue. My Chief keeps walking away my builders walk off while the chief is still there. Worse puzzle ever!

I;m having a nightmare with the statue. Now it's at the top of the path I can't seem to drop anyone on it to start workgin again, including the chief.

So far the statue is my least favorite puzzle also. It just seems to drag on, on, on,on.......
But it eventually gets there

Take the chief away for a bit say to the food hut. Then bring him back and put him at the bottom of the path

The problems with the statue puzzle have been corrected in the latest VV3 update. Click on the picture of VV3 at the top of the left column in the forum to download and install the latest update.

i don't understand puzzle five i have solved it but it doesn't seem relevent in any way whats the purpose? all other puzzles seem to help with disease or solving other puzzles or even furthering the storyline this doesn't seem to be the case with number five thats my worst puzzle!!!

I still have puzzles 9,12,13,15,16 left....i only have level two in everything..

That is my worry. I have Master Builders now, but how many will still be alive, when the Statue is complete?

After this, they can make it rain!!! What comes after the rain? Hint: It helps your food supply!!!
