This is my favourite turn-based app game, which I always die horribly in. It's also available on Steam. Let's see if we can beat it together, shall we? I will be running this playthrough like Gnome Town, where actions will unlock as we play, to keep things simpler. Everyone can post one action, and vote for one research.

The Game - Day 0

It is Day 1. We have washed up on the Bay. It is a clear day. Our day starts at 4:00am. Sunset is at 8:00pm - if we don't have a fire by then, we won't be able to take anymore actions until light breaks at 4am.

  We are Hungry.
  We are Thirsty.
  We are covered in Dirt.

  We are a normal weight, but are losing bodyfat due to being Hungry.
  We have no wounds.

Spoiler: Codex (click to show/hide)

Heavy Stone: A large heavy stone, ideal for traps. We can sharpen smaller stones on it to make cutting tools, or fire it in a kiln to make quicklime.
Palm Tree: Climbing it successfully means having delicious coconuts.
Sand: This seems useful, but for what?
Small Tree: A small tree - we can cut this down with an axe to get long sticks and leaves.

Probably need to keep exploring the bay.

Do I need to mention what research to do or will we continue to work on the knife until it's done?

We'll keep researching it unless we switch to something else.

Also, if we switch to something else, the previous research will remain partially complete. So say there is 6 hours left out of 12 and we switch to something else. Next time we decide to research it again, we'd only need to research the last 6 hours instead of starting from scratch. Sometimes that's important if you discover a medicinal or survival research of immediate use.

[King Zultan]

Oh, good to know.

Let's peel that husked coconut we just found.
