I like the revitilising stew, it's good being able to nurse your villagers to full health. It means you can increase the population sooner while not depending so much on food supply.

Oh and I love being able to put people on the research table without them getting pregnant!! In Virtual Villagers, I'd have only the men or only the women working on the table when there was a lot of people researching because if I mixed sexes I was always bound to throw someone on someone and then have a unwanted pregnancy!

Oh, I also love the Totem Poles, they're probably my favourite part of the this game. I like that you have something to work towards and I also like that there's a "reward" for gaining skills. It's a very nice touch.
