Yes.

Oh, whew. It went away. *huge sigh of relief* Time to start belt-tightening. How long do stews last, by the way?

Thank you, Borg.

Although it's a spoiler Village_Monk has an excellent (PDF) walk-through guide -- images inclusive -- for VV-The Lost Children (TLC). It explains all you'd ever need!

You can download the zip file here.

Wow, that guide is awesome! Wish I had found it alot earlier... oh well.

Half way to ending the villlage depression. Seeing as crops are 95 minutes away, I hope the food lasts.

What is the receipe for the stew you are talking about? Thanks!

You can see all the stew recipes here.

Some of you will disagree upon this method because it's kinda cheating, but you can gather more coconuts and crops than the remaining number indicates. When you have crops remaining less than 10, switch to x2 speed and drop all your workforce to the field. They will gather crops 10 each, no matter what the 'crops remaining' indicates. Coconuts can be exploited the same way.


I know that methods like this are frowned upon among devoted gamers. But I'm the type of person who just closes her eyes and hopes for the best when a ball flies toward her - in other words, I'm SLOW. To make matters worse, I'm a COWARD. I couldn't play VV1 anymore since one member of my tribe died. It's not that I cared a lot about them. I simply didn't have the guts to go on and see more of them die. Pathetic, huh? That's why I prefer the game to be easy & slow, pure and simple. I don't mind cheating. I cheat a great deal while I'm playing computer games. I'm good at finding this kind of flaws and don't bat an eyelid about using them. I know, I know, challenge is good and rewarding and all, and sometimes I play without cheating and that makes me feel good, but I usually play games to have fun, not to be frustrated with.

I usually try to use the honest method, but there are times where I use tactics like that. For example: My village depression has ended thanks to a rare item aprearing on the beach. I dropped every single kid in the village on it (quite alot, since I overbred which was what caused this whole fiasco!) and they all picked it up. So I got the last 10,000 points I needed. Lucky too, as the food was getting really low.
