ReplyDeleteget one person on food one on research and one on healing then one with a baby rest of the people you have use them for food until you have around say 900 then stop the farmers and put them to research when food is
ReplyDeleteout to about 100 put the people back to farming this strategy will work trust me.

Virtual Villager
Hey can you guys help me? I've been playing virtual villagers for a while now and am doing pretty well, how long do you have to water that field for? It seems like I've been watering it for days!!
ReplyDeletehello i have a hard time to remember my password sorry,but i have nearly finished the virtual villagers i have found the treasure.
ReplyDeleteVirutal Villager
OMG!im haveing a hard time playing this game i like it alot but is really difficult first of all how do i get alot of tech points to buy stuff?!?
ReplyDeletehere are my questionss for you folks out there... early on in the game when the algae forms in the ocean and no more fishing can take place, can they eat anything else before they get the stew pot required for preparing the stews? I can't figure out how to get at the coconuts either. Also, about the fishing, if I set fewer people to the task of fishing or stop them sooner, can I put off the onset of the algae since it is said to be attributed to overfishing?
ReplyDeleteOkay I will admit that I am not the brightest bulb in the package but this is pushing it. I start the game and can't get my villagers to try to do any type of gathering food other than the bush. What am I supposed to do?
ReplyDeleteAfter they build the hut later they build another hut by the wood pile. - age 9
ReplyDeletehow do u use the rich soil behind the research table?????
ReplyDeletei need some help! i have completed the first 4 puzzles and i have studied the plants and unblocked the lagoon. i can't get enough tech points to buy technology. my only farmer is adept and is the one with the baby. i cant make it become a master to catch fish because of the baby. please help!
ReplyDeleteShould use a master builder to start digging up the treasure. After starting the digging, anyone can keep digging. Hope this helps.
ReplyDeletepuzzle # 15 is a treasure near the ruins, it is about an inch away to the left you need a master builder the place him/ her over the spot and it takes a few tries before they dig... then you will get the 15th puzzle piece and yeah
ReplyDeletehelp!!! i cant figure out how to get enough tech points!!! i have 3/4 scientist always researching...but it still takes FOREVER for the points to pile up!!! any tips/tricks/hints/cheats anyone can give me???
ReplyDelete-apple

i originslly set 1 villager to farm, 1 to build and the rest to research. then i bought everything in the following order:
Farming level 2
Science level 2
spirituality level 2
construction level 2
medicine level 2
Farming level 3
science level 3
construction level 3
fertility level 2
medicine level 3
fertility level 3
best to have at least four farmers,
2 men, 2 women, with one girl having a baby at all times. as many scientists as possible.
worked for me :)
hope this helps,

PUZ-01] THE WELL
ReplyDeleteNEEDED: Trainee (or higher) Builder
This puzzle is the simplest of the 16 puzzles, and is even provided to
you as part of the opening tutorial. Drag the Builder to the well in
the village. They will uncover it, and solve the first puzzle.
[PUZ-02] BUILDING A NEW HUT
NEEDED: No special requirements.
This puzzle is another simple puzzle. In the middle of the village is
the partially completed hut. To solve this puzzle, simply finish
building the hut.
[PUZ-03] THE BEACH
NEEDED: No special requirements.
Another easy one to start off with. There is driftwood on the beach.
Drag one or more builders to the wreckage, and allow them to clean
it up. Once it is gone, this puzzle is solved.
[PUZ-04] THE SCHOOL
NEEDED: Master Scientist
One of the more challenging initial ones, despite the fact that they
tell you what to do. Drag the Scientist to the building just north
of the research table. They will convert the building into a school,
which gives small (very small) amounts of skill to new children. Now
if there only weren't those child labor laws in the village...
[PUZ-05] THE LAKE
NEEDED: Level 2 Construction
Once you have the needed level of Construction, drag a builder to the
rocks that dam the lake. They will slowly remove the rocks. Once
the rocks have been completely removed, the lake will return, and you
will have solved this puzzle.
[PUZ-06] THE FISH
NEEDED: Puzzle 5 (The Lake)
Level 3 Farming
Master Farmer
Drag your farmer into the lake. This may take a few times, but
eventually, they will start to hunt a rare fish. This fish not only
solves this puzzle, but it improves breeding.
[PUZ-07] BURYING THE DEAD
NEEDED: Level 2 Spirituality
A dead villager
Once a villager has died, with the required level of Spirituality,
you can have their bones taken to the burial grounds, to be properly
buried. It may take a few tries to drag someone to the corpse, as
the sick, perverted people on the island try to embrace the dead
body, but once they're done burying the body, the puzzle is solved.
[PUZ-08] HERB MASTERY
...Why is this number 8? I always complete it second. Ahem. Anyways.
On the edges of the village, there are several sorts of 'strange
plants'. Drag a villager to each of them. Once they have gotten the
message 'Your villagers now understand this herb!', drag them to the
next plant. Once done, you will have solved this puzzle, and will
have a boost to your healing abilities.
[PUZ-09] THE FIELD
NEEDED: Puzzle 5 (The Lake)
A LOT of patience
This puzzle always seems to take me an inordinant amount of time.
Hopefully it will go by faster for you. Once the villagers have
watered the field enough, the puzzle will be solved.
[PUZ-10] FRUITLESS PLANT
NEEDED: Puzzle 5 (The Lake)
Puzzle 9 (The Field)
Puzzle 11 (The Ruins)
Puzzle 12 (The Idol)
Puzzle 13 (The Golden Child)
Puzzle 14 (Butterflies)
The Golden Child
After summoning the butterflies in Puzzle 14, bring the child to
the plant that 'looks like it could produce fruit'. The butterflies
will follow, and pollenate the plant, completing this puzzle.
Now if we only knew why they required puzzles 11 through 14 to be done,
in order to complete number 10...
[PUZ-11] THE RUINS
NEEDED: Not currently known.
SPECULATED: Level 2 or 3 Spiritualism, Level 2 or 3 Construction.
This puzzle involves letting a few builders loose on the ruins in
the southeast portion of the island. Once they have rebuilt the
ruins, this puzzle is completed.
[PUZ-12] THE IDOL
NEEDED: Puzzle 11 (The Ruins)
Level 3 Spiritualism
SPECULATED: Level 3 Construction
Another building project. Bring your builders to the large rock
in the northwest corner of the island. After a while, the idol
will appear, and the puzzle will be completed.
[PUZ-13] THE GOLDEN CHILD
NEEDED: Puzzle 5 (The Lake)
Puzzle 11 (The Ruins)
Puzzle 12 (The Idol)
A villager carrying their baby.
SPECULATED: Level 3 Breeding, Level 3 Medicine.
This puzzle is the most crucial to completing the remaining puzzles.
Drag a villager with baby to the water. If the message says
something like 'The baby reaches towards the water', complete the
action, to create the golden child and complete this puzzle.
Renaming the baby to Neo is optional.
[PUZ-14] BUTTERFLIES
NEEDED: Puzzle 5 (The Lake)
Puzzle 9 (The Field)
Puzzle 11 (The Ruins)
Puzzle 12 (The Idol)
Puzzle 13 (The Golden Child)
The Golden Child
Bring the golden child to the field. They will summon butterflies.
Puzzle complete.
No, really. It's that simple.
[PUZ-15] BURIED TREASURE
NEEDED: Master Builder
SPECULATED: Construction Level 3
Bring the builder to a spot just to the left of the ruins. It may
take a bit of moving around, dragging and dropping them, as there is
no clue as to when you have hit the correct spot. Once they have
found the spot, any villagers can be brought (regardless of Builder
level) to help dig. Once the treasure is uncovered, the puzzle is
completed.
[PUZ-16] THE CAVE
NEEDED: Puzzle 5 (The Lake)
Puzzle 9 (The Field)
Puzzle 11 (The Ruins)
Puzzle 12 (The Idol)
Puzzle 13 (The Golden Child)
The Golden Child
SPECULATED: Must complete the first 14 puzzles first.
The golden child will eventually move near the cave, and start
'Meditating'. After a bit of time, the cave will magically open,
completing this puzzle, and technically, completing the game.
BEFORE I STARTED TO PLAY VIRTUAL VILLAGERS I LOOKED UP HOW MANY PEOPLE COULD BE MADE AND ALL THAT OTHER STUFF. TO MY SURPRISE 90 PEOPLE IS NOT THE LIMIT. IF YOU ARE AT 89 PEOPLE AND HAVE TWINS OR TRIPLETS YOU CAN HAVE 91 TO 92 PEOPLE. ALSO IF YOU PAUSE THE GAME BY PUSHING THE SPACE BAR AND MAKE THEM KISS ON PAUSE BEFORE IT ADDS HOW MANY PEOPLE, YOU MIGHT GET, DEPENDING ON HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU MATE, A LOT OF PEOPLE.
ReplyDeletehello!!!

ReplyDeletein the the cave s the passage to virtual villigers 2 if u dont noe that
ReplyDeleteI have completed all puzzles, have all levels of tech, the golden child, etc.
ReplyDeleteI keep getting a "He thinks this building could be converted." over the building just north of the research table. I have dropped a Master Scientist, Farmer and Builder as well as the Golden Child on this building but nothing happens. Have I just completed the game but too stubborn to let it go?? Please help.
How do I get my builder to become a master builder? He's uncovered the well, built the hut, cleaned the beach and cleared the lagoon. I've even had him back at the hut a few times to repair it but all I get is "adept builder". What does he need to do yet to become a master?
ReplyDeleteI am stuck on a new home. i can not figure out how to get the golden child. or anything past the idol, creek, ruins, ect. please help.
ReplyDeletenevermind i read some comments already posted and figured out the question thanx katie!!!
ReplyDeletehey can someone help me does it matter if you finish a puzzle out of order. I skipped the flower with the stars around it an have gotten the idol and the ruins done. Now I am having trouble getting the golden child I have thrown every caring mom with baby in the lagoon and nothing happens. I have only gotten one set of twins what now.
ReplyDeleteyou adjust the time or date by go to the time on your computer and right-click and choose adjust time/date and set the time to make babies faster, have more tech point,more food, and many more.
ReplyDeletehow do you build the temple i've put a master builder on the rock next to the lagoon but it doesn't do anything or is the temple and the idle the same thing?
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeletehey can i have someones email ad password cuz i have no money right now =[ so anyone thats done with the game hit me up!
ReplyDeletehey i sat the time forward and nothing happened ? HELPPPPPP i am so confused how do u get a master scientist i have done everything and nothing ... it says ADEPT
ReplyDeletequestion, how you know if the villager is in the right spot for the treasure? i try to move the villager to the left but nothing happen or they go to honor the temple but nothing else.
ReplyDeleteIf u wanna get done faster, minimize ur virtual villagers and change the time on ur computer. Dont go up too high at first because u can not change the time back on ur game.
ReplyDeletehey yall, watz up?
ReplyDeleteif u wanna have a kid that knows how to do farming, research, building, and breeding, just have pause the game and drag 3 males on top of the mother, unpause, and then all of them will "go indoors". this may take 3 to 5 times so be patient!

hi i play the online version. im having a hard time with clearing away the rocks near the lagoon and moving the boulder. first off, how do you move up in levels? remember i have the online version (which is free) and in order to purchase certain things you have to download stuff. please help!
ReplyDeleteI played for the first time, went to bed, woke up and my scientist was now a master, the hut was built and beach was cleared but the whole tribe was dead. What happened.
ReplyDeleteHow do you buy things like farming level 2 and stuff? And more importantly how do you know/see it?
ReplyDeleteIf you can't find the buried treasure, it is straight down from the food place and the same amount of space to the left of the temple, but you HAVE to use a master builder to get this process started. Here is a screenshot of the exact place: http://surferess.tumblr.com/post/11397095468/i-finally-found-the-treasure-in-virtual-villagers
