I got stuck in the tutorial. No deer would spawn so I couldn't get past the Collect 25 food step.
MacCoder- to collect 25 food
Build a pig or chicken farm
Anyone got any tips to reduce the amount of time needed to clear the game? I thought my score of 56 mins was pretty good, until I saw the all time scores... 20 mins! I find that almost insane...
56 mins? 20 MINS??
I must be really bad at this game b/c I feel like it goes on forever. The last time I played it it had to be hours, and I was no where close to being done.
Is the secret to constantly zerg?
I did it in about 30 min. Basically set a lot of huts with about 5 people on food and 7-8 on wood, that should allow you to create as many archers and pikemen as you need to slowly advance.
Once you get to iron and rock, set more huts to harvest all that and build a big army, keep spamming archers and pikemen as needed. I had population of around 120 when I finished it.
I also had a fairly short time, it's easier once you escape the tutorial.
Extremely lovely simulation of battle tactics and tiny people hitting each other... with none of the control. Would be vastly improved with better selection, unit control, "camera" control, map navigation, etc. The nasty map scroll is terrible for quick maneuvers, it's a waste of nicely random terrain and a mix of enemies. Upgrades were not really thought out, either, and could otherwise add a lot of dimension.
Slight bug with a full army and wizards casting speed; some units skip to one side of the screen, sometimes ending up in enemy territory. Also don't select a building that's about to be destroyed, or the game will lock.
Fun to build
a watchtower at just the right distance and wait for the archer to finish off the front line of enemy forces.
Overall on par with the likes of Takeover ( https://jayisgames.com/archives/2012/10/takeover.php ) Replayable if you're like me and enjoy tiny people hitting each other, and can do without a meaty challenge.
