i cant finish my collections for the life of me.i m missing the bottom left butterfly and the bottem left beetle, the only reason i know what they look like is because of the screen shot i was looking at the other day, i have seen neither of these ever, and i have been playing for weeks. do they actually come out or do i should i just start a new game?>

That's up to you and how much patience you've got. I don't bother personally, and have never yet completed all four sets of collectibles. The best I ever managed was three, plus ten beetles. After completing all the tasks I generally start a new game in a different slot, and pop back every now and then to refuel the fire, start villagers in new trades, bang the gong, etc. While I'm there I'll keep looking out for missing collectibles, but won't obsess about it. Some people have posted here that they've been looking for a particular collectible for months, but I just don't have the patience or that.

They will come evtnaully i also had this problem. I waited for weeks upon weeks and logged onto my game one day to find the last pebble then found the last beetle about an hour later. All i can advise you to do is just be patient and eventually they will show up!

I finished all my collections in 6 games by 8 but it's only because I'm every time looking for items and tech points and it takes a lot of time! To finish the collection is necessary only if you want to grow up your population until 115. It just happens to one of my tribe and I think it's too much. The only thing that I enjoy is looking at all the children (they are 40!) playing tag every 2 minutes!

LOl i agree i love the mad rush of all the children playing tag.
