I just had a sad thing happen. I started the game and didn't have time to play and thought I had paused it. I went back and all the adult villagers had died. The only survivor was a 2 year old little girl. I made her chief and she did make the fire, made magical food, and started the honey, she even buried the dead. But that's all she could do. She just kept running around 'Looking for Mommy.' I was hoping I'd get an event where some other villagers came to the Secret City, so I could start to populate the village. The little chief couldn't work in the lab or harvest food or build. I keep her going for a long time, until she was in her 50's, but she was very lonely. She had food but no tech points. And no new villagers came. So she also died, alone on the island. It was so sad!
