In Nature faction: the basic Max is 90
In Magic faction: the basic Max is 100

Then for the both, each collection completed gives 5 peoples more + 5 peoples more when you have the 4 collections completed.

And if by luck you get some triplets as you were at the max less one, you may add 2!!

So, the max of the maxes Are:
Nature: 117
Magic: 127

I my magic tribe I had max of 112 and that was having an event with the extra 2 villagers and I still need 2 collectables in 2 of my collections that is a fearther and a turtle shell each. I can't wait to get them items.

I have all collectable in nature and all puzzles complete with only 35 villagers. Only got 40% of the hut to finish and it looks like the clothes hut will be finished first.

I wonder if any one else had all completed before the last hut?

Yes, I completed all the puzzles before the last hut in my 2nd (magic) tribe!
In fact, it's because I wanted to keep a task for training some builders as I was "pushing" the statue. When the statue is finish, all the other puzzles may be solved immediatly.
And I finished the clothing hut before the other because I had 3 villagers wearing the same, not really beautiful, clothes and I wanted to change that quickly!!
Anyway, the magic faction making the tech points coming faster, the game goes faster too, I think!

Ack. So much misinformation being posted here. 105 has never been a max population for any game; 90 is always, always the maximum basic population. In VV1, in VV2, in VV3, 90.

In Virtual Villagers 2 a complete collection adds 5 to this. Completing all collections adds another five, for a total population cap of 115.

In Virtual Villagers 3, the same applies, I believe; the door keys count as a collection, so the total population cap attainable goes up to 115 again. Magic Faction, level 3, boosts population by ten more, for a theoretical population cap of 125. (I don't have a magic village so populated yet, or any VV3 village so populated, so the results are unconfirmed.)

LOL Exact!! As I said above (1st post of this page!!)

But I don't think the door keys count as a collection, it counts as the pieces of the gong in VV2.
It's the Tablets that are collection, with the Turtle Shells, the Corals and the Feathers; even if they don't work exactly the same.

You did post all this earlier, but nobody seems to read the threads they post to . . .

You're right; I was trying to remember the collections, and totally forgot the tablet peices.

Blame it up on posting around 5:30 in the morning.

Well after plaving VV3 so many days i still got to 105 as the MAX population,,,,,,,
Please reply anyone who is up n further (population)in Both the Factions?

If you have a population of 105, I HOPE you've already chosen your faction; you need it for fishing, and without fishing, a village that size will die in half a day.

Ya ofcourse i choose the factions as i m playing wid two Tribes one with Magic Faction & other With Nature Faction & in both i m fishing also (Lol else i cant get tht further), but in both of the tribes the MAX population i can sustains is 105 not more than that, i wana know can i sustain more Population?

Have you complete all four collections?
