To advance in skills
faster, repeatedly play mini-games and apply skill points earned to
needy castaways. Find out which games earn the most skill points and
focus on them.
Expand your village as
quickly as possible by building huts. Attracting more people means more
workers on hand.
Construct storage huts as
near to resources as possible to reduce the time necessary to stock up
on supplies (that means leave room -- don't build huts right next to
resources).
Skilled castaway are worth
more than those who are unskilled. Focus on building up one skill per
castaway to maximize their potential.
To help organize your
castaways, assign shirt colors to particular skills. If all castaways
proficient as lumberjacks are wearing red shirts, it will be easy to
pick one when necessary.
If you don't need a
castaway to perform a task, have them sit at the campfire. That way
their health won't be depleted as quickly.
Castaways low on health
aren't as productive as healthy ones. So, make sure they're not overly
thirsty, hungry, sleepy or lonely.
As you complete challenges,
you unlock higher skill levels. So, make sure you're always working
toward finishing a challenge.
Watch for "X"
marks to appear in the sand. As the old saying goes, "X marks the
spot." Have someone dig there and you'll unearth treasures (some
good like resources and radio parts, others worthless if not somewhat
humorous).
Walkthrough
- Warning: Spoiler Alert
When starting the game you come
into the island to see a Tiki guy standing in front of you. There is also a
tutorial on that guides you through learning some of the steps.
The first thing you need to do
is talk to the tiki and that unlocks the axe. You then learn how to drag
your castaways to the trees to cut wood.
If you hit the escape progress
button you see a map and also a list of challenges not completed. If you
talk to the Tiki guy you first went to he will continue to give you
challenges.
Talk to the tiki to get your
first challenge to collect 50 wood. Drag your castaways to trees until you
see the axe symbol appear and they will collect the wood. Once you reach 50
you unlock the ability to build a small hut.
If you click on the build
button and then click on small hut you are give a hut to drag around the
island. It has a black background, when it turns green you are able to click
and put it down. Then drag your castaway to the hut to build. I suggest
keeping your one castaway cutting wood while the other one builds. You will
quickly run out of wood and the castaway building will have to stop. Once
you build a hut, one more castaway is added to the tribe/group. I always
kept a few more gathering wood, then there were building, as the wood supply
goes down very fast when you only have 50 available.
If you notice a bottle on the
beach by the original crash site, take a castaway to it and you are taken to
a word jumble game. Finishing this game unlocks a radio part.
Talk to the tiki guy again for
another challenge. You can also press the escape progress button and be
taken to the list. From there just click on the next challenge in line. You
will be given games, hints, or different challenges. You know you need to go
there if on the top right hand corner (in island mode) you see Current
Challenge: None.
The next challenge is a game,
marble toss. This game unlocks the shovel.
Next challenge is to build a
well. Click on the build button, then on the water well. You drag this one
over all the little water holes throughout the island. After you have placed
your well, drag a castaway to it to build it. There is a green and red
progress line on all the things you have to build to let you know how much
more you have to go. Finishing the well unlocks levels in the minigame
shipwreck, which is located in this area in the upper left corner. You see a
boat torn apart with some stars under it. If you take a castaway to one of
the stars you get to play the minigame.
THINGS TO REMEMBER:
Playing minigames increases your supplies faster, i.e. wood and food
storage. You also earn skill points that you can assign to a castaway to
build up there skills faster. Keep your castaways happiness levels up. If
you click on a castaway, you can see how low there levels are, hunger,
thirst, sleep, social. If they are too low, just drag them to water, food, a
hut, or another castaway for some socializing. If they get way low, they
will decide to level the tribe.
Watch for X's to appear on the
ground. Drag a castaway to the x until the shovel icon appears. The castaway
will dig up a treasure. Mostly just some pages of different silly sayings.
Sometimes food or wood. One time you get radio part #1.
Next challenge is to build 5
huts. This gets slow as you only have 50 wood storage. Each hut built enters
someone else into the game. As said previously, it helps to keep a few on
building and more on gathering wood. This ensures a wood supply as the ones
building us it up. Completing this challenge allows your lumberjack to reach
level 2 in skill.
Once you have 4 castaways take
them all to the rock located in this area on the beach. It is a big one.
With 4 castaways the will push it over to reveal a radio part.
Next challenge is to chop down
the tiki. This is located North of this section of island. There are 3 tikis
all lined up blocking access to the next area. If you take a lumberjack to
the tikis the castaway will chop the tiki down, allowing access to the
second area. Clearing this tiki unlocks the ability to build food storage.
Next challenge is to play
another game that unlocks level 2 of carpenter skill.
Next challenge is a hint about
radio parts. Next challenge is to build a food hut. If you click on build,
then click on food storage. Completing this challenge unlocks fishing.
Remember to put your storage
facilities (food and wood) next to their resources for easier access for the
castaways. I put mine just inside the entrance to the second area right by
the lake. Then the castaways fish and can bring it right to the hut.
If you go to the right side of
the lake just to the point where you are next to the waterfall and fish you
will hook a radio part.
Next challenge is a game that
unlocks the medium size hut. When building this counts as 2 huts. Same as
before, click on build, then the hut, and then you can drag it around until
it turns green. Then build.
In this second area, you have a
water hole up by the Diner minigame. Remember to build your water hole so
the castaways can drink.
If you go just to the right of
the Diner minigame you see a crack in the ground by a group of trees. Take a
castaway to the trees in the corner to cut them down. This will reveal
another radio part.
REMEMBER: Keep playing
the minigames to increase your storage faster. Also to gain skill points.
The next challenge is to build
12 huts. This is hard because you only have 50 wood available. Remember to
have just a few castaways building while the others are gathering the wood
to keep you well supplied. The more huts you build, the more castaways you
have to spread out amongst the chores. It goes slow, but it all works out
well.
Next challenge is to gather
1000 food. Play minigames and have castaways fish. This unlocks levels in
minigame by the Diner called tribal feast.
Next challenge is to play the
checkers minigame, which unlocks wood storage hut. Again, click on build,
then wood storage, drag around island until you get a green light. If you
put it by trees, it is faster for the castaways to bring the wood to it. I
put one behind my food storage hut and one in the first area by the small
tree grouping below the shipwreck minigame.
Next challenge is to build a
wood storage hut. This unlocks levels in shipwrecked minigame.
Next challenge is the game
Pegs.
Next challenge is to build the
bridge. This is located on the river that separates the second and third
areas. If you take a carpenter person Level 2 to this area they will start
to build. This allows entrance to the third area of the game. This unlocks
your carpenter level 3 skill.
The next challenge is a
minigame shuffleboard. Play the game to unlock something special for your
tribe.
If you go to the pond just over
the bridge and fish there, you will hook another radio part. Also, if you go
to the tiki sitting in the middle of a grove of trees just south and to the
left of the pond you will find another radio part. Take a castaway to the
tiki to stare at it. After about 30 seconds or so of staring, the part will
be revealed.
The next challenge is to gather
5000 wood. You need to build at least 3 wood storage huts in order to reach
this level. If you play the minigames you can reach it faster. This unlocks
level 3 skills.
The next challenge is to gather
5000 food. Again, you need at least 3 food storage huts to collect this much
food. Also, remember to put it near the source. I have mine next to the
river in the third area, you can actually get 2 of them there. This unlocks
the fishing dock.
Remember to build your water
holes in this section so your castaways have drinking water.
The next challenge is to play
chinese checkers. Then the next challenge is to build a fishing dock. These
go along the ocean, so you have to build the first one in the first area, as
you do not yet have access the fourth. Don't make the mistake I made the
first time I played the game and place it over the bottle. Then you have to
access to the word jumble game or the radio part, but hopefully you have
already gotten that radio part. I had not the first time, so I was stuck in
the game and had to start over. Anyway, put this along the ocean line
somewhere. Building this unlocks hunters to reach level 3.
Next challenge is to max a
castaway. This means to get a castaway to level 3 in all skills. It if
easiest to have the castaway work on something then go play a minigame to
build up your skill points. You can then use these skill points and assign
them to your castaway to help max them out faster. Once you max a castaway
you have access to the firewalk game and entrance to the fourth level.
Once you are in the fourth
area, you can get the last 3 radio parts. One is in the pond that is
surrounded almost all the way by rocks. It is just south of the volcano
between level 1 and level 4. If you fish in the pond, you will hook the
part.
There is another radio part in
the 3 tikis that are at the top of this area. If you notice on the heads of
the tiki is a little symbol that corresponds to each of the skills your
castaways have. Take a boy and a girl maxed in each of the corresponding
skill levels to the respective tiki and a blue light (boy) and pink light
(girl) will be lit and you will reveal the radio part. I had trouble with
this one cause I used my maxed castaway. When I switched to one that was
just maxed only in the skill level, it worked right away. Not sure why that
is.
The last radio part is in the
crab that is on the left side of this area. It is a big symbol on the ground
with foot prints on it (6). If you take your castaways that are Level 3 in
each skill level to the foot prints and arrange them on there, you will
reveal the part. Again, I had trouble with my maxed out castaway, but once I
used a skill level 3 only in the area castaway it worked fine. You know you
have it right when the lights turn orange. I think you have to have the
castaway maxed in carpentry boy and girl next to each other and so on around
the circle. You can try switching out castaways until all prints are orange.
Takes a while to get it and I think you have to have all the others one done
first before you can get this one.
Back to the challenges. Play a
game called Aces high to unlock the spear. Then you are challenged to gather
500 wood again to unlock spear hunting. With the spear and the ability to
hunt you can take a castaway to the northern area in area 3 where you see a
red flag and a pathway that goes into the woods. Take a castaway there to
hunt for red meat.
Next challenge is a game of
war. This unlocks the last few levels in minigame shipwrecked.
The last challenge is to gather
30 castaways, which you may have already done by building 30 huts.
That is the end of the game.
You will then get a screen that you built your radio and have called for
help. It will ask if you really want to the island or stay. If you stay, you
have access to all minigames, if you leave, you start the game over.
