OK, this is after a restart, as all my villagers died when I left it on at fast overnight. I'm pausing at night and trying very very hard not to have them breed out of control. Right now, I have ony 2 of the 3 huts and I'm trying to keep them away from the new hut that suddenly showed up.

Still pausing the game overnight, so that does slow things down.

Currently only harvesting and science are tech level three. I'm trying to hold off building for a while.

Ok, now I'm a bit confused. I thought we need that someone to solve one of the last three puzzles, and that that someone was also one of the puzzles. But it appears that you have solved one of the last three puzzle pices with him. hmmmm, or did you have a master somebody to find the easter egg? Yeah, that's probably it, right?

you're right, the GC is the 10th puzzle, and then he helps solve 11. 12 is the easter egg

Indeed, you're both right. I (finally) got the easter egg (thanks Barbara) and waited an eternity for the GC to arrive and then yet another eternity for the last puzzle (11). Now I know what I'm doing, I've started another game at medium difficulty, so I'll let you know how I get on. So far, I'm only at

Hi All! Thank you so much LDW for your totally addicting games! Here are my stats so far...

Real Time Played: 191
Villagers Born: 88
Villagers Cured: 66
Villagers Buried: 23
Oldest Villager: 86
Max Villager Population: 65
Food Harvested: 326,966
Crabs Caught: 1,955
Total Tech Points Earned: 811,517
Tech levels Completed: 12
Island Events Encountered: 18
Puzzles Solved: 11 of 12

This is my first time through with the game, so I am running at the low difficulty with the game speed on Fast...but I just couldn't stand waiting to see what would happen next!

The villagers food is currently at 137,446!
I have all my Tech up to the third level. My villagers will no longer work at the research table, no matter how much I take them there, so my Tech points are only at 25,767.

Kinda stuck right now, but watching and waiting for the last puzzle to click!

There is no reason for your villagers to research at the table after you have L3 in all areas of Village Tech. That's why they don't want to do research any more! They're smart little people!

There is a program called village editor and villager tool box where you can edit any of your stats (food, tech points, tech levels and so on.). It has been posted in this forum. The threads have been locked, so that will make it a little easier for you to find them.

Just completed my first game at Hard level - I started about twelve, so these stats are for posterity. No time warps or cheats.

Game varied between fast (sitting in the cradle beside me), slow (actually doing some work) and pause (catching some zzzs).

Puzzle #1 23 Hours
Puzzle #2 27 Hours
Puzzle #3 94 Hours
Puzzle #4 81 Hours
Puzzle #5 87 Hours
Puzzle #6 105 Hours
Puzzle #7 54 Hours
Puzzle #8 199 Hours
Puzzle #9 124 Hours
Puzzle #10 169 Hours
Puzzle #11 174 Hours
Puzzle #12 158 Hours

Total Real Time Played 174
Villagers Born 68
Villagers Cured 47
Villagers Buried 6
Oldest Villager 70
Max Village Population 65
Food Harvested 128588
Crabs Caught 1028
Total Tech Points Earned 652957
Tech Levels Completed 12
Island Events 10
Puzzles Solved 12 of 12

Current population 65, current food level 1446 - I was concentrating on getting the last of the tech so they went a bit hungry - but then given how hard it was to keep them fed, they're used to growing weak from hunger.

I think I might leave it to run on fast overnight with everyone farming - just to see how high I can get the food level

That's pretty impressive! You're the first person that we know of to complete the game on the most difficult setting!

Well, I am impressed. I was playing on the difficult level for almost 200 hours, and couldn't get past 2 tech levels. I was having a problem with running out of food or finding a good time to lose my women to breeding. My original villagers were all starting to die, and I don't have enough new ones to keep the food up I think . That game is on hold for the moment

Thanks guys - I think I was lucky by finally finding a strategy that worked.

Once I got Level 2 harvesting, every night I'd set one researcher and all the rest to farm and leave the game on Slow but switched on in the cradle while I slept. This really got the food up and I could do more research and have babies while I was awake and keeping an eye on it.

Like I said, I started the game at this level loads of times and never got too far. In two of the earlier starts, I got the whale pretty early on, and took the food option so I thought I'd be able to get past the breed versus food problem, but it never worked.

I've now got 1 GC, two doctors and 61 farmers - it's funny watching the queues to water the crops!

You have found the 'magic' combination for success in the game on the hard setting.

How does one begin to get the Islanders to fish for crabs?
My villagers die by the end of my 2nd or 3rd day of playing. Or the children all "disappear" and I'm left with 1 old sick villager and a hungry young one. I'm stumped.

well, they start fishing after you have purchased level 3 of harvesting. Where are you in the game as far as tech point go?

First Sim game I've played! At first I tried making little geneology charts, but they really do like their privacy, don't they? (They kept sneaking off while I wasn't looking)It's funny to see how they resemble the original settlers through the generations. I've been stuck on puzzle 12 forever, it seems.

Game Stats: (Medium difficulty, Normal speed)
Realtime Hours 770
Villagers born 398
Villagers cured 341 (had a botulism outbreak...)
Villagers buried 207
Oldest villager 96
Max Population 65
Food harvested 2,088,379
Crabs 14,163
Tech points 1,232,376
Tech levels 12
Island events 43

Yeah, I spend too much time with this, but it was a lo-o-o-ng drive to Albuquerque & golf tournaments last forever...
Thanks for a great game!

Hi,
I had to restart the game one time (I think), and now I've been playing "forever". I guess I'm not really into being "challenged", since I play on easy settings and just enjoy keeping the village going. Here are my stats. I keep waiting for something in the game (a counter maxing out) to cause the game to abort, but so far it hasn't happened, and I don't have to start over.

Realtime hours played: 1402 (I know, odd, huh?)
Villagers Born: 1107
Villagers Cured: 746
Villagers Buried: 878
Oldest Villager: 115
Max Village pop: 65
Food Harvested: 11414869 (various events reset this)
Crabs Caught: 16152

Island Events Encountered: 82
Puzzles Solved: 12 of 12

You need to get some villagers researching at the research table (quickly) so that you can purchase level 2 of harvesting. That will allow your villagers to learn to farm and give them a much-needed new food source.

When you say "five on the way" with respect to v born, how do you know you have babies on the way? Apparently my villagers are having a great time because I keep making them go inside until the female comes out with a baby!

immediately after you hear the "kiss" you can check the woman's detail screen to see if she's nursing... you don't have to wait for them to go inside!

With the exception of the one anonymous player a few notes above, who's put in 1030 hours on normal speed, I don't see anyone else who has had to be this patient. This was absurd, but this is exactly what it took for blessed puzzle #10 to complete puzzle #11. My civilization had collapsed to one child alone and, with the help of a barrel of babies, regrown before the event finally occurred. There's no way I would have waited this out without forum input. The developers will definitely want to do something about this in future releases. These stats represent over 41 days of game play on the fastest speed on the easiest setting! I had made it through all the other puzzles within 5 days and had to wait a month for puzzle #11.

Yeah, you think I might have a little OCD? I started this last game on May 16th and I'm going to see how long I can keep it going. Hopefully an update will come out and I'll start all over again. What can I say, this is a great game!

If you search the forum for "Village Sim Toolkit" you'll find it. It was posted last spring by someone who played the game. It was not developed by LDW, and is not supported in any way by LDW. Some people have reported problems with the game after using it, so use it at your own risk!

My fiance's game has been going since October (about 22 weeks now). She seems to check it for at least 45 minutes each day.

Level low. Mostly medium speed (I leave it like that when I'm at work: took it around with me one day and found myself checking things constantly, so now I leave it and wait until the end of the day.) Occasionally, I've put it on fast speed. I've paused it a couple of times at night or when I knew I couldn't check for quite a while. Right now it's set on fast speed.

I don't have a GC, and as there is no more housing, and they won't "produce" any more, I'll have to keep waiting until the the older villagers die off.
