If it was an assign action the post would say “Assign wise man: Research X”

Hmm.. then why do we have a wise man?  Maybe we should get SCREE to clarify things…

More food

You will need the think tank technology to get 'workers' who can research.

Multiple people can research in a turn. Originally in my planning it was a flat % a turn, but I think it's more fun to let people spend their action to research. We'll see if this breaks everything in 15 turns time, or something.

The wise man gives you access to research and informs you of things that might need attention.

If you get a second wise man for the first to squabble with, you will learn the immediate Unlocks a possible research gives, allowing you to plan ahead.

Thanks!  I’ve edited my post.

Oh man!  Imagines us making crude tools out of food, mud, and stone bricks. I bet we get taught how to recognize the value of a stick!

I'm pleasantly surprised that we built the mad science hut on our first try, but I propose we factionalize. Collective bargaining will be much less frustrating than industrialists, foragers, and mad scientists all trying to snipe resources for different purposes.

Well, I figure if other people want to be idiots then might as well help them get it over with so we can research the Healing Arts next turn!

Research crude tools.

RESEARCH WAY TO MAKE MUD PILE HIGHER
NO NOT A GATHERER'S HUT ONLY PILE

Research crude tools
This should be enough to unlock tools.

Gather MORE MUD!

Holy shit a lot of stuff happened over the weekend.

Gather Mud

[SCREE]

Turn 8
TURNTURNTURN

The Glory of thought! With the introduction of a Wise Man to the clearing, most people sat around all day thinking deeply. Beads of sweat dripped down Gnome's brows and off their long bulbous noses. Sounds of straining could be heard deep in the forest. One Gnome rejected modernity and discovered a way to store mud without a gatherer's hut: in even. bigger. piles. Genius!

In other news, a group of Gnomes gets together with the wise man to discuss how to become more efficient. Apparently, the forests the clearing is surrounded by can actually be useful?! The trees can somehow become... tools? And there's stuff hidden in the mud that can be used too???

Some mud and foraged food comes in from the FFF crew, though some of the food left outside begins to rot in the sun.

No one has seen the Worker for a while...

Suspect and accuse the wise man of being the worker who just loafs around.

Also, gather mud!
