I've got this game running on multiple computers and I'm kind of ticked that I didn't start keeping track of this earlier. Now, my method is to take the "unsafe" option each time. Drink it, eat it, open it, etc. I've noticed that people had different outcomes with the vials, red or blue. Once I started tracking them, I noticed they were different. So hence my next post to start tracking events and the decisions I chose. It would be great if we all started sharing.

I've been taken the "drink it, open it, etc." options also. Oily drinks are more often bad than non-oily. The crates have usually been useful. But I haven't yet chosen the "safe" option of leaving a crate alone.

I just had someone find a moth trapped in a cocoon. He helped it get out, but it fell in the ocean and died. I seem to remember someone else's post about this, maybe not helping the moth?

When I get this one (giant deadly spiders), I rarely lose a villager, usually just weakens them - finished one off once, but they were elderly. Sometimes their health bar goes down to about half, but their status remains healthy.

One day Hokou discovered a shiny object in the sand. Unknown to the villagers, it was a brass compass, probably from the old shipwreck on the beach. The villagers had never seen such an object before and its true purpose was a mystery, but what the did know was that it was the best berry-masher they had ever seen.

Option A:

Use it to mash berries.

Option B:
=========
Let the researchers have it.

ANSWER:
=========
A: The villagers use the hard, smooth device to mash the berries into a thin film that they then allow to dry into a stretchy sheet. The children enjoy them greatly, but these fruity snacks also keep well, which improves the villagers' agricultural efficiency.

once before on my earlier game, i had only about 6 or 7 people but had fully researched farming - they had such a large supply of food but about 3 times it said a typhoon had come and washed away all my food!

Another time when my population was bigger it said a heat wave came and none of the villagers felt like working. every one ran to the lagoon and ocean to try and cool off. i wish i had taken a screen shot - it looked so funny - even the children who can't swim were walking on water!

IIRC, this increases everyone's farming skills.

BTW, is there a "good" outcome to the book? Both of the ones above were not.

I only got the book once and chose for her to read it. She followed a path and was never seen again.

I've gotten this one several times where a VV comes across a monkey at the food bin. The choices are: Should he/she scare off the monkey or wait and see what happens. All three times I chose to wait and see. Turns out the monkey just wants a handful of berries. He gives the VV some herbs or plants to eat and he/she gains a lot of healing ability (adept doctor level). However, it sounds as if it could have negative outcomes too according to everyone's posts here.

Twice I have gotten a crate or barrel that looked like it was carefully sealed and I've opened them to get cute little toddlers. :]

I opened a badly weathered crate just once. It had a giant venomous spider than bit the villager. He was a child and survived the bite. Since then, I don't open crates in bad shape.

I'm probably too cautious for my own good.

I used the drum to make music, just to see what would happen. The next orange event screen explains that the banging of the drum causes it to rain, and the berry bush is partially replenished. Not as great as cutting it open unless you're at the beginning of a game, I think.

either you saved those beforehand or you warped a lot just to get events haha.

I personally like the one with a bunch of spiders in the crate or rats or something and he gets sick

Another way to get lots of events (if you just want to see the possibilities) is to just restart a game over and over again.

IIRC, the first 2-3 events happen early in the game. If you are not interested in saving old games, you could do 5 of these at once and easily get 10 game events to report...

Hmm, and then if each of those 5 were saved to another file, and swapped in with the 5 previously saved, it would be possible to get even more. All without warping.

One Day Hokou was walking on the beach, when he found - half buried in the sand - a mysterious vial filled with what appears to be an oily, red liquid.

OPTION A:
=========
Drink the liquid.

OPTION B:
=========
Pour it out.

ANSWER:
=========
A: Upon opening the bottle, a cloud of red vapor is released and starts drifting toward the village. Hokou drinks the liquid on one gulp and, feeling no effect at all, returns to the village where he discovers that everyone has been poisoned by the vapor, except for himself.


Personal note- Somebody at LDW was having a really bad day when they wrote this one! The whole village is sick!! The GC had a party and healed everyone except 7 villages who died.

nemyar, did it happen while you were looking, or when you came back you saw the event? I've never seen where it KILLS the villagers - but if the game was running unattended, it is possible they all fell sick.. and if the one who drank it wasn't a doctor, there would be no one to heal the others, and they would die.

This is great! I am glad someone started this thread! I know that there is one option of drinking a liquid that causes your adult to become a child. Has anyone else seen this? I am positive because my trainee builder at the start of a game was turned from 19 to 5 years old at the beginning of my game and it was so frustrating! LOL

A: Upon opening the bottle, a strangely familiar aroma is released.

By the look of things she will be eating it. (Kiri turns 4 years old and keeps her status as an adept farmer)



Please note if the villager is a nursing mother. DO NOT EXIT AND SAVE THE GAME. You will have a nursing mother until she returns to her original age. As a child she will not be able to pickup mushrooms or learn skill at age 14. Although if you keep playing until she finishes nursing, she may be able to ween the baby by the time she is age 5 or 6. If someone is able to test this theory please reply.

One day Hokou discovered a shiny object in the sand. Unknown to the villagers, it was a brass compass, probably from the old shipwreck on the beach. The villagers had never seen such an object before and its true purpose was a mystery, but what the did know was that it was the best berry-masher they had ever seen.

Option A:
=========
Use it to mash berries.

Option B:
=========
Let the researchers have it.

ANSWER:
=========
A: The villagers use the hard, smooth device to mash the berries into a thin film that they then allow to dry into a stretchy sheet. The children enjoy them greatly, but these fruity snacks also keep well, which improves the villagers' agricultural efficiency.



NO! B. Is the best! You get lots of tech points!

Has anyone ever gotten this one?

This morning one of my kids found a "beautiful black pearl"
Option A was share it with the tribe
Option B was keep it to herself


I picked "B" and the outcome was she hid it away and became distant from the tribe, talking to herself and was often heard whispering at night. Reminded me of lord of the rings. "my precious......"

I opened a crate with delicious steaks. We got 1500 food points and no one died. This was just described as a crate (possibly a "mysterious crate") with no "tightly sealed" or "damaged" or anything like that in the description

I got that one, but I'd already read you should share it. The message said everybody was happy, but nothing changed that I noticed.

I just received an event that said something like
Quote:

Today is Isola day when the villagers celebrate their arrival on the island with feasting and dancing


There were no options to choose, just an OK button.

Since I got the GC a couple of days ago I doubt that the villagers noticed much difference!

I wrote this up for the RA forums a while ago. The information actually came out of the game files and not from repeatedly playing until I got them all...it would have been extremely difficult and time consuming.

The only ones that aren't straight forward are the ones about crates and vials (they're at the end of the list).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Trapped Whale
Through the morning mist, (your villager) noticed what appeared to be an unusually large sand bar near the shore. Deciding to investigate, (he/she) discovers a stranded whale, still alive but trapped in the surf. With high tide still hours away, and the sun growing stronger, a decision must be made at once:

Help free the whale
1) The whale has been freed. (Your villager) has successfully freed the whale by keeping it moist until the tide rose high enough for the whale to swim away. Your tribe has gained Spirituality.

Harvest the whale for food
1) The whale has been harvested. (Your villager) has successfully managed to slaughter the whale and bring back the bounty of meat as well as other vital products, to feed the hungry villagers. Your village has received a 1000-point food bonus!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Strange Berries
During the course of daily foraging, (your villager) encounters a plant covered with beautiful, ripe berries. I have never seen such strange berries, (he/she) thought. But the shamans have warned the villagers about such unknown temptations.

Taste the strange berries
1) Taste the berries. (Your villager) was killed instantly by the berries, which turned out not to be berries at all, but rather, the eggs of an extremely poisonous variety of sea snail.

2) Taste the berries. (Your villager) feels revitalized! In fact, (he/she) hasn't felt this good in years. (Your villager) begins to run around in circles and shout with glee!

Ignore the seductive plant
1) Ignore the strange berries. (Your villager) has decided that it's far too dangerous to taste the unidentified berries.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Old Drum
(Your villager) was searching in the bushes at the edge of the village and discovered and old drum fashioned from wood and hides. It seemed like there was something inside the drum, because it was very heavy.

Cut open the drum
1) Cut open the drum. The drum contained journals of a master healer who lived on the island before! The pages disintegrate as they are turned. (Your villager) has become a master healer.

Keep the drum to make music
2) Play the drum. When (your villager) started to bang on the drum, it started to rain! Apparently this is just what the berry bush needed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Mysterious Face
(Your villager) was relaxing near the edge of the village when ^ saw a face in the trees staring back! Alarmed, but curious, ^ wasn't sure what to do.

Get a closer look
1) Get a closer look. (Your villager) pushes into the trees for a closer look and is never heard from again.

2) Get a closer look. As (your villager) approaches the mysterious visage, (he/she) realizes it's only a shy, confused person who seems lost. (Your Villager) manages to gain the odd stranger's trust and welcomes the newcomer to the village. As it turns out, this lost soul is a master farmer and will be a boon to the village.

Cautiously back away
1) Avoid the creepy visage. Better safe than sorry, (your villager) decides. (He/She) carefully backs away and decides to try and forget what (he/she) saw, and never mention this to anyone for fear that the others would think (him/her) insane.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Visitor
As (your villager) is strolling along the beach one afternoon, (he/she) spots a stranger in a boat. As the stranger reaches the shore, he asks (your villager) for some plants and seeds to take back with him on his boat.

Allow him to gather samples
1) Let him gather. The man gently took samples of each plant that he was interested in, and when he left he thanked (your villager) and gave (him/her) a bottle of antibiotics. Your tribe has gained medicine technology.

Tell the stranger to leave
1) No seeds for you, stranger. (Your villager) told the man not to touch anything and that he should leave. The stranger was not at all happy so before getting back on the boat, he sneezed a juicy, germy sneeze directly into the poor villager's face. A foreign disease swept through your village.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Furry Food
A recent spell of humid, balmy weather has caused the village stockpile of food to ferment and mold. The villagers worry about getting sick, but they hate all their hard work to go to waste.

Remove the moldy pieces
1) Save what food you can. It looks like most of the mold is gone, but a few villagers seem to have stomach troubles

Throw out all the food
1) Throw out all the food. Better safe than sorry. The villagers err on the side of caution and throw all the food into the ocean.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Mysterious Vial
One day (your villager) was walking on the beach, when (he/she) found - half buried in the sand - a mysterious vial filled with what appears to be an oily, red liquid.

Drink the liquid
1) Drink the liquid. Upon opening the bottle, a cloud of red vapor is released and starts drifting towards the village. (Your villager) drinks the liquid in one gulp and, feeling no effects, returns to the village where (he/she) discovers that everyone has been poisoned by the vapor, except for (him/her)self.

2) Drink the liquid. Upon opening the bottle, (your villager) is overwhelmed by a symphony of botanical aromas. (He/She) becomes dizzy and disoriented for a moment, but then realizes (he/she) has somehow acquired complete knowledge of herbal lore and healing.

Pour it out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Troubled Child
Little (your villager) has always been an unusual and troubled child. (He/She) is uninterested in normal childhood activities and (he/she) seems unusually bright, but the are not sure what to do with (him/her).

Let (him/her) try farming
1) Let the child try farming. Being a clever child, (your villager) easily grasps the farmers art, and the added responsibility seems to have helped (him/her) to fit in. However, (he/she) seems to be allergic to some of the plants on the farm.

Let (him/her) try research
1) Let the child try research. As it turns out, (your villager) is a child prodigy and takes to research as if born to it. (Your villager) quickly becomes a master researcher and (he/she) even makes some astonishing discoveries that boost the village technology.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Mysterious Vial
One day (your villager) was walking on the beach, when (he/she) found - half buried in the sand - a mysterious vial filled with what appears to be an oily, red liquid.

Drink the liquid
1) Drink the liquid. Upon opening the bottle, a strangely familiar aroma is released. Something from long ago...something eerily familiar...something. At once, (your villager) feels compelled to gulp down the liquid and almost immediately remembers the scent as the sweet porridge (he/she) used to eat as a toddler. By the looks of things (he/she) will be eating it again.

2) Drink the liquid. The contents of the bottle smell delicious. (Your villager) is unable to resist, so (he/she) drinks it down. It is vagely minty, and slightly burns going down. A few minutes later, (your villager) starts acting silly and begins to dance around!

Pour it out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Suspicious Monkey
Little (your villager) has discovered a suspicious looking monkey hanging around the food bin. (He/She) knows that they sometimes steal food, but (he/she) is not sure whether to try and chase it away or wait and see what it does.

Try to scare the monkey away
1) Scare the monkey away. The monkey does not frighten easily and is certainly not impressed by little (your villager). It becomes quite angry and attacks (him/her), leaving (him/her) badly mauled!

Wait and see what it does
1) Wait and see what it does. The monkey steals a handful of berries. (Your villager) tries to chase the monkey, but (he/she) trips and scrapes (his/her) knee. The clever monkey notices the crying child and returns with some local leaves, which he rubs on the wound. The leaf juice has a strong soothing effect. (Your villager) has gained some healing skill.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Wild Mushroom
(Your villager) has been watching the local monkeys and has observed them eating a particular variety of mushroom that sprouts rapidly and decays following a rain. One day, (he/she) finds and picks one, yet (he/she) is not sure whether to taste it or not.

Taste the mushroom
1) Taste the mushroom. The mushroom is delicious! (Your villager) has found a new tasty and nutritious food source, and gains foraging experience in the process. (He/She) then harvests the wild crop and adds them to the village food stores.

2) Taste the mushroom. A few minutes after tasting the strange fungus, (your villager) starts to feel very sick and is overcome with nausea and stomach cramps.

Discard the mushroom
1) Discard the mushroom. (Your villager) decides it is just too dangerous to try the strange mushroom, even though the monkeys seem to be eating them. For that matter, (he/she) is not completely sure this is the same kind.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Black Pearl
(Your villager) was swimming near the shore and found a stunning black pearl inside an unusually large clam. Mesmerized by this spectacular pearl, (he/she) has mixed feelings about what to do with it.

Share the treasure with the tribe
1) Share the pearl. (Your villager) shows this fabulous pearl to the tribe and all rejoice! The beauty of this pearl brings hope and inspiration to all the villagers.

Keep the pearl hidden
1) Keep the pearl. (Your villager) keeps the rare pearl hidden away. (He/She) has become increasingly obsessed with it, is often distracted, and has withdrawn from village life. Some even say that (he/she) can be heard whispering to some silent companiion in the dark of night.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Dream
(Your villager) was dreaming one night. (He/She) emerged from thick foliage and found two caves. In the right cave, (he/she) thought (he/she) saw the glint of gold. In the left cave, (he/she) heard a faint cry and the growling of a beast.

Enter the right cave
1) Enter the right cave. (Your villager) enters the right cave again looking for that gold. The ground becomes softer and softer and suddenly (your villager) is in the ocean surrounded by sharks. The nightmare ends as the sharks move in to feed. Awake and covered in sweat, (your villager) cannot release this new fear of water.

Enter the left cave
1) Enter the left cave. (Your villager) enters the left cave and finds only a small empty room. On the wall is a crude painting showing what must be Isola! Near the beach, however, is a beautiful temple. A few steps west of the temple is the glint of gold that (he/she) saw from outside the cave. (He/She) wakes up.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Brass Compass
One day (your villager) discovered a shiny object in the sand. Unknown to the villagers, it was a brass compass, probably from the old shipwreck on the beach. The villagers had never seen such an object before and its true purpose was a mystery, but what they did know was that it was the best berry-masher they had ever seen!

Use it to mash berries
1) Use it to mash berries. The villagers use the hard, smooth device to mash the berries into a thin film that they then allow to dry into a stretchy sheet. The children enjoy them greatly, but these fruit snacks also keep well, which improves the villagers agricultural efficiency.

Let the researchers have it
1) After a time, the researchers discover many things about the object's purpose and construction. Although the device did not survive their inquiries intact, the researchers gained valuable knowledge in the process.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Moth
(Your villager) was going for a walk one day and stumbled upon a large cocoon. (He/She) could see that there was a moth inside trying to bite and tear its way to freedom.

Help the moth
1) Help the moth. (Your villager) gently tears away the cocoon, freeing the moth. Unfortunately, it was the very struggle of exiting the cocoon that would make the moth strong enough to survive int he world. The moth tried to fly but was too weak and fell into the ocean.

Leave the moth alone
1) Leave the moth alone. (Your villager) does not interfere, but watches as the moth eventually breaks free from its silk prison. Realizing that the moth needed to complete its struggle in order to be strong enough to survive, (your villager) learned a rare and important lesson about helping by not helping.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Book
(Your villager) finds a bundle of parchment wrapped in cloth at the edge of the foliage. Peeking inside, it appears to be a book or some collection of writings. The title reads, The Island of Pearls.

Read the book
1) Read the book. (Your villager) steals away to a secluded spot on the island to read the book in private. Something in those pages is so startling and amazing that (your villager) cannot believe what (he/she) has read! (He/She) immediatley heads off into the bushes, finding the secret path that had gone unnoticed by the villagers. Where (he/she) has gone is a mystery, but (he/she) has gone.

Bring it to the researchers
1) Bring it to the researchers. (Your villager) feels it would be prudent to bring this to the attention of the village scientists. Laying the manuscript on the research table, (your villager) seeks out the master scientist. Upon returning to the table, the book is missing!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last two are difficult to decipher from the file:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Mysterious Crate
(Your villager) was walking on the beach when (he/she) saw something washed up on the beach. It was (descriptions) crate.
Crate descriptions:
- wooden
- rotting, wooden
- badly weathered
- painstakingly well prepared, watertight

Open it
1) Open the crate. (Your villager) is delighted to find that the crate is filled with (?).

2) Open the crate. When (he/she) opens the crate, (your villager) is astonished to discover (?).

Objects found in crates:
- coconuts
- ripe bananas
- juicy steaks
- angry, biting rats living in the crate!
- giggling infant!
- giggling infants!
- brand new diapers!
- deadly spiders hiding inside!
- rotten and half eaten, old fruit.
- rusty old tools and instruments.

Leave it alone
1) Leave it alone. (Your villager) has a bad feeling about the crate, so (he/she) pushes it back into the ocean.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Mysterious Vial
One day (your villager) was walking on the beach, when (he/she) found - half buried in the sand - a mysterious vial filled with what appeared to be (a watery | an oily), (red | blue | fizzy) liquid.

Drink the liquid
1) Drink the liquid. (Your villager) drinks the strange liquid in one gulp. Immediately, (he/she) feels (very | quite | a little | slightly | somewhat | utterly)(strange | enlightened | confused). (He/She) doesn't quite feel (him/her)self. (Your villager) has (improved at | lost some) (farming | construction | research | breeding | healing | skill).

Pour it out
1) Pour it out. (Your villager) knows better than to drink any old strange liquid (he/she) finds laying around on the beach, and dumps it out in the sand.

I got the book today, and thankfully from reading something in another thread, I knew better than to let the villager read it, and had them give it to the researchers. Now, if it had been the GC to find it, I most certainly would have let him read it!!!! lol.

One of my redheaded female villagers drank a vial of some liquid one time and her appearance changed. She changed from redheaded ponytail to very short black hair ... well, grey since she was past 50 years old.

Just tried this option... Drinking it poisoned everyone in the village but the one who drank it. So the post later on saying that oily liquids were mostly bad would have been a better one to try, eh?

Do they just change appearance or do they change gender also? What if a nursing mother drank the liquid and turned male while still nursing the kid?

Hmm, I thought that the oily red liquid made the just that villager (or the whole tribe other than that one villager) sick.

When they change appearance, males stay males and females stay females. smile
