My nursing villager's baby was screaming and crying so they she hd the option of leaving it in a dark area to calm it down or take it to the beach and let it calm down there. I chose the beach, because the dark area seemed to suspicious . With the beach the baby calmed down with the calm noise.

I had day of celebration, and one with a kid who had healing skill, he felt sick and though the sea would help him, so I chose that, it didn't work

Pretty major spoiler! One of my builders had the brilliant idea to climb on the roof of the hut to hoist materials. I let her do it and she fell off and died.

First Event: A kid climbed a tree and the nursing mom saw it up there. Choices: Go up and get the kid (dangerous)or Let the kid learn the consequences of its actions. I chose the first one. Nursing mom fell out of the tree and was weak for a long time!! This one's not a spoiler. Some crook (they have CROOKS on Isola???) came and wrecked the lab. Lost all of my tech points.

My very first event was: an appearance by Mr. Biggles! He said he'd been watching us and thought we were worthy of his assistance, so allowed us to choose between how to look after the tree, or how to look after the tribe. I chose the tree, he said it was a wise choice, and taught me some dendrology.
I THINK that automatically put me at level 2 dendrology and I now just need to earn tech points for level 3! Nice event This happened long before I saw this thread, so no screenshots, sorry.

I got one where a boy found a old book. Choices where to have him read it or show it to the village. I had him read it. The book fell apart but he became adept in every skill, he said he felt guilty about not sharing it with the tribe. Just got another: Girl was feeling sick, She said that algae has certian healing poperties. I told her to eat it and she felt better and gained doctor skill And one I forgot about: Boy fell sick. Said he thought a certian mushroom would help him. Told him to eat it, it made it worse. He lost some of his health bar

The Robber Crab While looking for shells on the beach, Lalati spots a rare robber crab. The tails of these crabs is known to have potent healing properties. Options were to cut off its tail or let it go. I chose let it go. Results: Feeling sorry for the crab, Lalati lets it go. Following the crab she discovers that the crab has returned to its nest, where it has been storing food and covering it with salt crystals. She explains it to the scientists who discover an important method for storing food. The tribe gained 1 level in food mastery.

I got a bunch, but I only copied 1 of them. The Aspiring Doctor
Arofa has fallen gravely ill. She is also an aspiring healer and has long theorized that water from the magnificent ocean surrounding Isola should have healing properties.
Dring Sea Water = Arofa bravely drinks her fill of ocean water from a wooden bowl. A few moments later she becomes violently ill and is worse off than before. Better Not = ? Villager found a rare algae (or was it a mushroom?) with bright spots on it. Choices were "Throw it into the ocean" or "Leave it alone." I left it alone, and it multiplied and spoiled the food. Villagers lost a large chunk of food supplies. And another that had no choices: Suspicious footsteps appeared out of the fog. Someone dropped honeycomb in the food bin, though no one saw the person. Villagers gained 300 food. I got that last one twice on the same tribe.

Got another "no choice" event: The Mysterious Footprints
One morning the villagers notice that strange footprints have appeared on the ground overnight. They later discover a number of very useful scientific instruments that seem to have come out of nowhere, as though they simply fell from the sky.
Your vilage has gained 2000 tech points.

White salts: gained 2000 tech but villager gets hurt
Dry Algae: lose 1000 tech

Ironically, I got this after like 3 thunderstorms The Pure Sea Air
The weather has been pleasant lately, and the air smells especially pure and clean. Everyone's lungs feel great, and their stuffy noses have cleared right up! No reward, i.e. tech points/food, etc.

While searching for mushrooms, Mahu sees a large, colorful fungus with bright dots on it. These mushrooms are known to be dangerous and he wonders what to do with it. I chose to admire from afar (thanks to all the others who had this ) and it did the same thing as throwing it in the ocean heehehe

there is a cylinder in the ground they will ask you if you wish to fill it top the top or to the First notch. Choose the first notch. the top will get the villagers into a heated argument and you gain nothing.

The Sealed Box"<Name> is swimming in the ocean one day when he bumps into a floating box. It appears to be carefully sealed, and he wants to bring it back to the village, but the tide is pulling it out. It would be very risky to try and swim back with this box."
Options: - Swim back with the box - Let it go
I chose: Swim back with the box. "<Name> barely manages to get the box back to the beach. Upon opening it, the tribe finds glass bottles of all sizes. These will certainly change how they work in the lab.
Your tribe gains 5000 tech points."
Result: 5000 tech points.
Needless to say I'm very happy with this one. The Screaming Baby"<Name is having a difficult time with her baby, who won't stop screaming. She is receiving conflicting advice from the other villagers. Some say the baby should be left alone in a dark, quiet place to calm itself. Others suggest that the baby needs a fun diversion and advise her to take the baby to the beach and dance around."
Options: - Leave baby alone - Take baby to the beach
I chose: Take baby to the beach "The soothing sound of the ocean, combined with the rhythmic dancing, lull the baby into a blissful sleep. Mommy got a much-needed rest and is very grateful to the tribe for their help."
Result: Nothing?

I got a child to eat a mushroom instead of taking it to the foodhut, and then a villager asked what was she doing, there were the options of tell a lie, or tell the truth. I chose to tell the truth and after being told off, she gains some farming" Not much exciting, but at least she gained something...

I don't know what is going on with my game I have been playing since the min it was released and I have only gotten 1 event and that one was for extra food! NO tech points at all why do I keep missing random events They're pretty random. My game was on for 14 hours straight yesterday and I only got 1 event, making 2 total. It's ok...the events usually turn out bad for me anyway!

The Arc of Brilliant Colors: After a rain, Walter sees an arc of brilliant colors in the sky. He has seen these before and knows that they don't last long, but he would like to know what is at the end of one.
The left side of the arc appears to be near the mausoleum, while the right side appears to be dangerously close the the eastern cliff.
Run to the left side: It disappears
Run to the right side: ? I'm not sure if anyone is already working on it but I'm making an event guide with everyone's events and results.

The Aspiring Doctor, tilly has gravely ill, is a doctor and wants to know whether to fast or eat
Chose to fast, she felt worse and still sick. Villagers hear screaming coming for the bushes they investgate and find abandoned babys. The village women are gracious and nurse them. (All women above 18 and under 50 are nursing a baby.)

I got the crying baby one again, and this time I left it alone. The baby kept crying louder and louder until everyone in the tribe was distracted and mother became frazzled. Didn't see any major damage though

One of my children got a sore leg...had the choice to treat it by either using mashed up bark from the tree of life or mashed up rare mushrooms.
Used bark from the tree of life and he got all better, plus gained significant healing skill.

I got: One where a kid got stuck in the tree of life. There were two choices; Try to get down or yell for help. I chose yell for help, and my villager ended up falling and we lost 500 tech points. I also got: One where a villager saw glowing faces in the trees. I chose to tell the tribe and we gained 1000 tech points. A few non-choice events; Bees came and stung all my villagers. A mold grew in the food bin - lost 100 food. I also had one where I gained 2000 tech points - can't remember the event though.

The Mosquito Larvae Waikiki notices that there are mosquito larvae collecting in the pond. Nobody wants a mosquito infestation, so the villagers decide that they should try to do something about them.
Options were to put soap in the pond or to put oil in the pond.
I chose soap: After putting soap in the pond the tribe discovers that the only effect of adding soap is that they are being eaten alive by very clean mosquitoes.
I'm not sure if the fact that the mosquitoes were biting them made a difference but many of the villagers were sick after I chose the option.

I had an event about glowing faces, chose the option to tell the tribe, and gained 1000 tech. Different result. My second post, hope this comes through properly: I got the same one, only I chose keep it to themselves and my villager disliked working.

Got this one just today and I don't think anyone else has mentioned it: One of my farmers found a pretty pink seashell. I was given the options of "Pick it up" or "Leave it alone." I had her pick it up - she put it to her ear to see if she could hear the ocean and got pinched on the cheek by a tiny crab! Now she doesn't like crab meat.

I got the crying villager in a tree, too, but the girl that climbed up to get him/her fell, was weakened, but gained a LOT of parenting skill. She was 17 and an adept parent :P
I'm wondering how I can heal her, as now she's pretty weakened...?

The Mosquito Larvae Waikiki notices that there are mosquito larvae collecting in the pond. Nobody wants a mosquito infestation, so the villagers decide that they should try to do something about them.
Options were to put soap in the pond or to put oil in the pond.
I chose soap: After putting soap in the pond the tribe discovers that the only effect of adding soap is that they are being eaten alive by very clean mosquitoes.
I'm not sure if the fact that the mosquitoes were biting them made a difference but many of the villagers were sick after I chose the option. I got the same and chose to add Oil. Then :

The Wet Book: The villager finds a badly damaged wet book that is disintegrating, the choices were to read each page if she could or to return with the book to the lab. I chose to return to the lab and a chapter about parenting was the only part saved. All the villagers studied it and they all gained some parenting skill

Got this one just today and I don't think anyone else has mentioned it: One of my farmers found a pretty pink seashell. I was given the options of "Pick it up" or "Leave it alone." I had her pick it up - she put it to her ear to see if she could hear the ocean and got pinched on the cheek by a tiny crab! Now she doesn't like crab meat. I got this one as well, and tried the 2nd option. Here's what happened: "It's such a pretty shell! What's this? The shell appears to grow legs and scuttles away. Romi develops a new appreciation for life on the island."
My islander now likes learning, and gained a bit of research skill (very little) I've decided to start a triber called "Event Tester". It's basically, I start a new tribe after every event, and keep a record of them all. Does anyone know if there is an actual count of how many events there are? 50? 25? Apprentice healer I got the one for the healer ... gravely ill, but mine said eat tree bark from the Tree of Life. I chose to eat it and she got all better (100% healthy) ... and I think her healing skill improved a little. Got the same one, and tried the other option, just to see: "<Villager> decides he'd better not, and waits the illness out."
The villager is still sick, but his health bar is still high. I got a healer to him quick, and he was fine. EDIT: Thanks to whoever merged my posts. Another event, no choice. This is the 3rd version I've seen of "The Mysterious Footprints" event, but this one is not so pleasant as the other 2: One morning the villagers notices that strange footprints have appeared on the ground overnight. They later discover that someone or something has stolen some important research tools.
Your village has lost 224 tech points (all I had at the time.) And another no choice, The Cold Snap: "An unseasonably cold wet wing has blown through the village. The villagers were going to huddle around the fire, but the wet, icy drizzle put out the fire!"
And yep, the fire's out. lol

The Pretty Shell Two kids have been constantly fighting over a pretty, round shell. Hio is sick of the bickering and decides to intervene. The children either have to be taught to share the share, or they will have to decide who will keep it. - Teach kids sharing
- Teach kids negotiation
Teach Kids Negotiation: Nothing everything can be shared, and in this case a lesson about negotiation is more valuable. However, even after they pick an owner for the shell, one of the children feels very bad, outmatched at the debate over the shell. Still, the fighting has stopped. Hio's approach was innovative and effective, although maybe a bit harsh.

How have you guys gotten so many events?! I have only had one : Gained 2,000 tech points (No choices) You don't have any events if your tribe were in Pause! As I don't had enough time to play, I paused my tribe when I quit it, especially at the beginning, and I didn't get many Events also!

I've been playing for over 30 game-years and have gotten 4! Oh well, they'll come in time. Give me something else to look forward to!

The Sealed Box"<Name> is swimming in the ocean one day when he bumps into a floating box. It appears to be carefully sealed, and he wants to bring it back to the village, but the tide is pulling it out. It would be very risky to try and swim back with this box."
Options: - Swim back with the box - Let it go
I chose: Swim back with the box. "<Name> barely manages to get the box back to the beach. Upon opening it, the tribe finds glass bottles of all sizes. These will certainly change how they work in the lab.
Your tribe gains 5000 tech points." I had the same one but chose the other option. Let it go. Result: <name> seriously doubts that he can safely bring the box back. Whatever was inside could not make up for the loss of his live. He gives it a shove, and the box floats farther and farther out to sea until it is out of sight. I seriously needed those points! But didn't want to loose Guan

I got that eveent, but my villager tried to bring the box back and was washed away. So even the outcome of the different options are just random I'm glad you shared this, otherwise I had chosen the other option next time

The Pretty Shell I didn't see this one yet in the thread: I chose the 2e option: negotiation wich resulted in this: Nothing was effected the kids where still allright ... Still I'm wondering what the other option would have done I tend to chose the wrong option most of the time

I tend to chose the wrong option most of the time I don't think it is possible to really know which option is the best choice, as the consequences of each choice seems to change randomly. What is the "correct" choice one time may give negative results if chosen the next time that same event is encountered.

This is an event. Your villagers found screaming babies in the bushes. It always gives six babies, and all of them show Joey as the father. Hope this helps.

Daredevil Barrel...of Babies! [/spoiler]The villagers hear a racket in the distance that sounds like a large drum rolling down a hill. A moment later, they see a barrel with little heads peeking out of it appear at the top of the highest waterfall. Horrified, they watch it plummet down the waterfalls, until it reaches the pond. It bobs about in the water, and they manage to grab it before it sinks. Much to their relief, they find several giggling kids in the barrel, completely unharmed![spoiler]

I had the one where an adult finds a kid stuck in the tree. Against my better judgement I decided he should climb the tree to help and my villager fell and hurt himself. His health bar dropped to about one-fifth full, He was "weakened" but not "sick". However, his parenting skills went up past adept level. I left the game a little later and reopened it after an hour or so. I noticed he was missing, and found him in the mausoleum. He'd died because of a "work accident". To make things worse, he was the only runner in the tribe; I had big plans for him.

I have a lot of this: The Aspiring Doctor [/spoiler]Rimaroa has fallen gravely ill. She is also an aspiring healer and has long theorized that eating a bit of bark from the Tree of Life would have to be healthful. -Eat a bit --> knowledge in medicine goes up. -Better not --> didn't try... [spoiler]

This one is good! I had it before, but choose the wrong one... The Climber [/spoiler]Mojo decides to climb the great banyan, thinking that it would be a great achievement to climb the Tree of Life! Unfortunately he gets stuck at the top of the tree and can't figure out how to get back down. -Try to find a way down --> The first step was a bad one. Mojo tumbles down through the branches, badly hurting his leg, and lands behind the tree. Hee lies there for a full day and night before discovered and rescued by the tribe. This time let him bond with the tree in an unexpected way. Your tribe gains a level of Dendrology tech. -Start yelling for help --> Lose tech point because of your tribe being busy getting him out of the tree.[spoiler]

I got an event twice where one of my farmers had an idea to put pressure on the fruit while the were cooking in the pit.....the first time I choose the "it's too dangerous/don't do it option" and nothing happened....the second time I choose to apply pressure on the fruit and the villager slips and steps on the hot coals I had this event too and choose to apply pressure on the fruit and the villager was succesfull and set new standards in farming, gained farmerskill if I remember correctly So the outcome of the events can be different, everytime you'd better think twice ...

The Arc of Brilliant Colors: After a rain, Walter sees an arc of brilliant colors in the sky. He has seen these before and knows that they don't last long, but he would like to know what is at the end of one.
The left side of the arc appears to be near the mausoleum, while the right side appears to be dangerously close the the eastern cliff.
Run to the left side: It disappears
Run to the right side: ? I'm not sure if anyone is already working on it but I'm making an event guide with everyone's events and results. I just got this one, and tried the second option. I got: Run to the right side: Your tribe gains 300 food. (The arc seems to go just behind the cliff. Just a little further and he can see what is back there. Wow! He sees a huge patch of rare mushrooms and scoops them up for the tribe.)

I have no idea why, but I got the same two events right away both times I started the game. I got the one about the aspiring doctor getting sick and being advised to munch on tree bark from a dying tree. All that bark worked out pretty well for the tree, right? But when I had them munch the bark, they felt lots better, and became adept doctors. Woo woo! My 6-year-old has mad skillz, yo! Then I got the one about the screaming baby. Since every mommy knows that ditching your firstborn son is a BAD idea (bats and bears and badgers, oh my!), I picked the option to dance on the beach with the child. The baby's OK, the mommy took a nap, and she added "Dancing" as one of her likes. Oh, yeah... I got the one about the bee stings too. One person got sick, but my new apprentice doctor patched him right up. Everyone ran around randomly for a few seconds. Very cute! Strangely enough, nobody dislikes bees...

I had one of my children coming across a rare crab and had the choice between cutting its tale off for healing properties or letting it go. I chose to let it go and got a level of food mastery because the crab had a food storage of its own. I had just started a new tribe so this was quite a gift

Yes, I've had this a couple of times. Once I got three, the other only one. I think the reason I got less than you is that I didn't have enough housing for a larger population.
There is also a barrel of babies event; I've had this only once so far. I can't remember now how many were in the barrel.

I got the same and chose to add Oil. Then : That is in fact the real-world solution to the problem. Okay -- I'm DUMB! How are you all getting the "click to reveal... show me!" thingy? Or instead of typing out the spoiler commands, as the previous answer suggested, you can highlight the part you want to hide, then click the button that has an S with a / thru it--first clicking the Switch to Full Reply Screen if necessary to get the buttons!

How often do you get these random events? It seems to me that as my tribe grows, the events seem to come less frequently.

The events can occur as often as once or twice a day, and the more often you play the game, the more likely you are to see the most events. If you don't run the game at least twice a day, or you pause your game fairly often, you will encounter fewer events.

Okay -- I'm DUMB! How are you all getting the "click to reveal... show me!" thingy? 1. Go to FAQ2. Click "What UBBCode can I use in my posts?" 3. You will find ALL the tags there. Here's a few to get you started (without the hyphens): [-b-]-text-[-/-b-]= Makes the given text bold.[-i-]-text-[-/-i-] = Makes the given text italic.[-u-]-text-[-/-u-]= Underlines the given text.[-spoiler-]-text-[-/-spoiler-]= Will wrap your text in a spoiler container. Users must click a button in order to see this text, thus giving them the ability to specify if they want to read the item. [-quote-]-text-[-/-quote-] = Surrounds the given text with blockquote and hr's. This UBBCode tag is used for quoting a reply. [-quote-=-username-]text[-/-quote-] = Surrounds the given text with blockquote and hr's. This UBBCode tag is used for quoting a reply. The username specified will be shown as quoted. Sorry for the long reply!

OMG, OMG I just had an event that drowned one of my villagers! Good thing he had just produced a baby with another villager minutes before! And thank goodness I didn't have to see his body washed up on shore! There was no body.

I got The Wet Book. Ricky is walking along the beach when he trips over a wet object. He picks it up and discovers it is a waterlogged book. He opens the front cover, which disintegrates almost immediately. He can read each page as it disintegrates or bring it to the scientists. I chose bring it to the scientists and the result was: Despite cradling the book in his arms and moving as quickly as possible, the book is almost gone bu the time he makes it to the lab. The only section left is one about nurturing children. the whole tribe reads it and is grateful for what they could salvage. each of my villagers gained a little bit of parenting skill. Even the 6 year old! These aren't exact quotes but they are very similar. Yes, I named my person Ricky.

In the tribe I currently have in VV4, I've had the following events happen (my memory is a bit hazy on most, though, as I hadn't played this tribe for a very long time until yesterday): -the mysterious fog appeared, resulting in the loss of all the tech points I had at the time (I'm pretty sure I've had that one happen more than once); -the mysterious fog "stole" all the food I had at the time (twice in a row, and at the beginning, when they had very little food - needless to say it was more than a little annoying); -Biggles appeared and allowed the villager to ask him a question (I think I got a Dendrology level out of that one); -the one with the children fighting over a shell (I chose "teach how to share"); -the one where a child ate some food and had to lie or confess what he had done to the adults(he told the truth); -the aspiring doctor one (the villager got better - I think I might have had this one happen more than once too).

The exact same island events can have different effects! I'd chose which ever one is safe, not take chances!

woah, were you running low on gals? No, not really, the population was pretty much balanced at the time they found the babies. I guess I just got the unlikely end of the odds with those six (same if they had all been boys).

You know what 6 extra girls mean...more babies! I guess I didn't word it that well, sorry! I meant that the game didn't really care much for the gender balance in my tribe, and that six babies all turning out to be girls (if you consider it's pretty much 50/50 for the gender the babies turn out to be) is not that likely to happen (when compared to, say, 3 of each gender, or 4 of one gender and 2 of the other). But yes, they were a welcome addition to the tribe as a population boost goes. Sorry, no screenshots. Those girls are now in their 30s, didn't get any screenshots of them as babies, or children, or the event itself. Started a new tribe 2 days ago or so, and as a challenge the 5 villagers I chose were all nursing mothers. That tribe has been going on for 12 Isola years now (never paused it, but I did change it to slow game speed before I went to sleep, then back to fast the next day), and I've had 4 events so far. Since I've decided to get screencaps of all events from now on after starting this tribe, I do have photos of these ones (under spoiler tags):

whoa, you're like the odd chance receiver! First the six girls, and now there are three island events out of four that feature the same villager!!!

Well, while the six girls one was unlikely, two of the events in the tribe involving Romilda (the villager in the white dress) really wasn't, as I only had 10 people in the tribe both times I got events involving her (the Biggles one and the seawater one). The third choice event that happened in that tribe (sealed box) involved Kali (the red-haired villager), not Romilda. And I had a new event happen in that same tribe. Another non-choice event this time:

um, okay! Apparently I can't read anymore! Oh and I just noticed that when the strange footprints that you only HAD 300 food, so he/she stole all you had. Yes, I've noticed one of the footprints events takes away all the food you have in the bin (I think there is another that only takes x units of food, no matter how much you have, but I'm not sure). I just had the tech points version of the mysterious footprints events happen, too (it took away 2000 tech points, but I did have a lot more this time).
