I saw someone submitted that if a mysterious crate washes up on the beach don't open it poisonous spiders. I have found this is not always true. I have also found in the crate tools which led to thousands of tech points. But the choice to take a chance or not is yours! Remember villagers can be healed and you won't lose everyone by making a decision.

It sounds simple but if you have a lot of pregnent women then they can't do there jobs. I got set back well far when 3 of my farmers got pregnent overnight. Always have a back up plan like dovoting both men and women to a job

To find the treasure you must have all tech points in construction done. When you have all of it done then you can use a master builder to look to the left of the temple and below the food bin (This takes a long time so keep doing it until he finds it). To make a golden child you must take a nursing mother and put her in the lagoon. The grassy field on the right side of the village there are dead flowers, take either a master farmer or constructor( I forgot which one) and put them on the field. The villager will then go get water from the lagoon and keep watering the field until it is full of flowers. Once you have flowers in the field take the golden child and place him on the field to make butterflies. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, NO VILLAGER EXCEPT THE GOLDEN CHILD CAN MOVE THE BOULDER! THE GOLDEN CHILD CHOOSES TO MOVE IT ON ITS OWN. Thank you for reading. - Jordan

If Your Afraid Of Your village dieing or villagers doing something you don't want them to do such as have kids. Like During the night Go to the menu and click pause and it will stop them and freeze everything till you click it back to one of the play speeds I love doing this during the night so they don't hatch a million babies on me.

Click Pause When you don't want you villagers to die I did this last night so they would do anything and they didnt go hungry die get infection. Course you wont gain anything but you wont lose anything either!

When you've got the master scientist to found the school you can use the hand (mouse) to beat the drum at the right of the large hut(by clicking on it) to make the children come and dance. When you click a child to see what there thinking it will say going to school. Nothing major but I thought it was fun.

Someone has already said that you can change the villagers clothes by clicking F6 but be careful not to go too far. When you get to the solid green out fit you are stuck there. All my women are in green. Lol....I have only started so I will catagorize from now on with different outfits. There are some really cute clothes for the women, when you see the yellow and green outfit, you know you are next to the last one and then you can't go back and undo...you are stuck with green. Happy camping!

1. If your Golden Child is reluctant to do what you want him to, put him under some butterflies and he will be more cooperative.
2, Just for fun, I decided to categorize my vilagers by appearance, to make it easier to direct them to do the tasks I have assigned: I made all my parents redheads (I am one!) I made all farmers brunettes (they are the most prevalent) I made all the builders blondes; I made all my healers grey haired little doctors, and the fishers are all the "blue-haired" villagers. My researchers (scientists) are bald or balding (eggheads! LOL)
3. I periodically take my elderly villagers over to the Magic Berry bush, give them more time in the Lagoon, and put them in the flowers often, to promote longer life.
4. I take my children over to stand in front of the cave periodically, in the hope they can enter it; they will stand there, and the adults will usually walk away, and/or the announcement appears again.

I dropped a nursing mother of twins into the magic lagoon.
And that is how I got my golden child..
But I'm not going to guarntee that it will work every time.....

HAPPY GAMING ALL.........

I agree with the person named Midnightli.....I left the game for a few hours and had just 1 male villager in the breeding mode..........wow.....came back and had all 7 of my ladies pregnant. It didn't make me shorthanded, I still had lots of males to handle the building, healing and farming. Will have to double up on the farming to feed all the xtra children now. Good luck, happy gaming

If a man wanders up from the ocean asking for samples of flowers and plants, say yes, let him do it, he will give you some antibiotic and better healing powers.

I kept puttin the Master Scientist in the pond, finally he found a fish, it was a fertility fish to help villagers with fertility. Also after he came out, he headed for the ocean and started to find fish there, also the other ppl started to bring fish out of the ocean.

I left my game, and when I came back, most of my women were pregnate!
I have learned not to leave anyone on "breeding" mode if I'm going to be gone for a long while. Now I am short handed in all catagories!

It was suggested by someone you could play with your computer clock, and move forward with your islanders...WARNING... I wiped out 46 people, and left 2 little children to die all by changing the clock. Not a good idea.

I dragged mom with baby into the magic waters and when child was still young I put her in the flower garden, nothing happened....any ideas?
If you find the book ...I took it to the scientists and it dissapeared right away, have no idea where it went. If you find box in on the beach...dont open it..poison spiders.

You can't just grab any mother and baby to produce the golden child. Choose the mother that has "butterflies" in her likes under details. As she and the baby go in to the lagoon, you should see this across the botton of dialoge "the baby seems to be reaching for the lagoon". Also, the child must be male, or you will have to wait and try again. Hope this helps.

Now, this only works with children.
When you see a mushroom get one child to pick it up then another then another and so on until you have run out of children and they will each pick up one mushroom.
For example,if you have five kids and one picks up the first mushroom then drag another onto the same spot where the mushroom was then that child will pick up another mushroom out of nowhere! You can Keep doing this until you run out of children.

P.s, It really does work, trust me

HAPPY GAMING.

Wait until one of your villagers finds an old book on the shore. Do NOT let them look at it alone!!!! Make them take it to the other scientists and I think you get to go to the other part of the island. All I know is that the book showed up on the shore and I told the girl who found it to look at it alone and she ran off with it to the other part of the island. Good luck!

The Golden Child will help you with these puzzels:
1. Moving the boulder
2. The fruitless plant
3. Gracing the garden
4. Getting the Golden Child
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Having fully researched spirituality helps you with the following puzzles:
1. The cemetary
2. The rock carving
3. The temple
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some puzzles you probably need to have a Master Scientist:
1. Studying rare plants (I think any villager can do this)
2. Converting building into school
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
You really need teamwork for these:
1. Uncovering the well (one person can do this alone)
2. Making the garden
3. Cleaning up the beach
4. Unblocking the lagoon
5. Uncovering the treasure
6. Building new buildings
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Master Farmer might help:
1. Finding rare fish in lagoon
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other Hints:
1. When 2 villagers get together, look at your population. If it goes up a number then you have a new baby coming!
2. The Golden child will restore your crops, berry bush, and even start paties!
3. The fruitless plant will keep all of your villagers in tip top shape, so they will have good health!
4. Do not waste your time trying to get your villagers to honor the temple, cemetary, or idol nor the treasure. It does nothing!
5. If you click on the tombstones in the cemetary it will tell you who is buried there, how old, and what they were good at!

When your making babys, wach the popultion.If you see it go up when you bring 2 villagers together move the woman away and she'll have a baby in her hands.

1.found a school
2.do something with the ruins
3.carve the silver looking stone to something
4.make a graveyard
(some of these I haven't done)

Be sure to put golden child in the flowers again , he will walk to the fruit less plant and the butterflies will pollenate it and it will produce fruit

Drag a nursing mom to the lagoon her child will become a golden child put the child in the new flower garden and butter flies will come the child will also open the blocked cave, also south of the food bin ,left of the restored ruins is burried treasure while moving a villager nothing will appear so you can't tell where it is exactly I moved almost every one to the spot and eventually someone started digging. Don't know after that they are still diggingfor me. So good luck
