Tribez lost building3/24/2024 The happiness bar does only one thing for you in the game: it allows you to build the population of your village, which you do by building homes of various kinds. They were so happy that I hoped to bargain with them regarding the price of the “cleansing ritual,” but alas, they stood firm on their original “donation” demand. I finally relented, directing them in constructing a simple structure to serve the watermelons from the farming patches and a few exotic fruits I collected from the local flora. They regaled me half the evening with questions about modern food consumption, and all morning as we weeded the village grounds they begged me to build them a cafeteria. My expedition plans having been thwarted for the day, I turned my attention toward building the natives a “cafeteria.” I enjoyed the looks on their faces yesterday as I introduced them to the concept of “bar snacks,” but I am paying for it now. I was both touched and amused by their concern until I asked what preparations would be necessary, and I was told in no uncertain terms that the “cleansing ritual” required 10,000 coins of local currency. They told me they would need to “cleanse the bad spirits” before I could proceed safely. Upon questioning them, I learned that they consider this territory to be dangerous. If you truly enjoy the game, I recommend that you DO at some point buy a few, just to support the title, but this walkthrough series is designed to help you spend them on something fun rather than on something necessary to your progression.Īfter cleaning up the village grounds a bit, I set off in the direction Jamboa had indicated to seek out his “giant iron birds,” but the natives became highly agitated, refusing to allow me to go deeper into the forest. After playing for a few weeks you might want to glance through them, but the only ones you won’t get automatically are achievements like buying crystals. Unlike certain MMORPGs I could mention, the achievements in The Tribez are designed to mark your natural progress through the game. “How wonderful!” I was pleased, of course, but after receiving my third or fourth medal of the day I must admit I stopped paying them much heed.Īchievements in The Tribez are fun but are not generally worth pursuing on purpose. As we opened the fifth treasure chest (where are these coming from?) Aurora ran to me, smiling broadly, and hung a crude medal around my neck. I spent the morning directing the natives in clearing out more of the land around our growing village. I am grateful for this good fortune as I needed the sleep desperately. I was a bit concerned last “night” that the Murlods might return while I was sleeping, but my rest went uninterrupted. As far as modern technology I am now completely on my own. But really, who in the twenty-first century still wears a watch? My cell phone, unfortunately, has no idea what time it is here in… wherever I am… and at any rate has run out of battery power. I have only been here for two days and already I am kicking myself for the hundredth time for failing to bring a watch on this expedition.
