Build Your Colony
When your colonists arrive, they have nothing but the clothes on their backs. You take control and tell them to gather materials and build walls, floors and furniture.
You are not limited to predefined buildings! Design your own houses and style them to your liking. There are dozens of construction and furniture elements that you can use to create the settlement you’ve always dreamed of!
Take Care Of Your Colonists
The colonists are your top priority. At first, you simply need to provide them with food and shelter. But the world is full of dangers! An infection might prove fatal to the strongest warrior and a plague can wipe out your entire colony.
Each colonist reacts to events, happy or sad, and reflects that in their behavior. Happy colonists will receive a boost to their productivity - Unhappy colonists might throw a temper tantrum.

I've seen this game before!!! The graphics have been greatly improved! Looks like a fun choice!

You farm tomatoes in spring and summer. This game is deceptively difficult. Micromanaging colony management for sure. They have relationships, have wants, needs. And you only get a new colonist when they have life satisfaction. Next to their name it shows a face, an arrow, and their profession. Keep the face green and get the arrow to green to get a new colonist. I had two colonists in a row die of the flu before I could get any medicine or skill to use the medicine! Then I was doing really well with six colonists and so much tech unlocked, and my poor colony got attacked and only two of my elder colonists barely survived. Back up to six colonists now, but it’s a struggle for sure! Good luck!

Thanks, that's very helpful. I've been semi purposely keeping their satisfaction lower, to not get too deep in. Let's first stick up on basics and then start working our way up from there.

Assign each person a specific job, in the menu you will see a hammer and what they are already skilled in. Doctor, and farmer are important. If they get sick or break a leg they will either die from the flu or limp from not having splints. Doctor/scolar is a good match up, the forester can plant cotton/apple trees at max level, the farmer needs to cook food and plant, while in the winter do crafting or tailoring. The minor needs on stone and iron, if you have a separate scolar from your doctor have them mine crystal. The middle icon by their name if you get it to turn green by what they like and dislike in their list, you can get another person when they are all happy. Each need their own room, while having a dining room and a crafting room. You later unlock a bookshelf that they can learn at in the writing category where you can have them learn at to improve the difficult skills. Try to get about 100 raw food and 30 cooked food by winter. Later unlock healing plants and use the doctor to make treatments, these are very expensive and easy to make that sell high at the markets. Keep trade good with the tribes if possible, they have high demands if you get bad relations they will attack you, so it's good to level up each to hold a sword to fight back, and a doctor to heal them. Also beware of pirates, they are heavy soldiers and hard to defend against, if they attack be sure to honeycomb your stuff behind harder walls and doors to keep important things safe. The watering can should be unlocked before 2nd spring, that gives you a bonus to crop harvesting. Some personality traits are horrible, you can remove them with points from their happiness bar, or add good traits. The worst traits are Dumb-will not learn at all Xenophile- kind of a jerk Allergy of food- will die if they eat the wrong food Pessimist-hates everything Some take 4 points to remove which takes a while to do, start on these as soon as possible to get them off. Old people are bad additions, they die too quickly, reject them and wait for the next one. You can ask about traits as well. If you have a person that is extremely important to the colony the tribesmen sell life potions of youth, they are 1k ish each. If you sell healing stuff when your doctor is at high level it's easy money, and you can keep the doctor alive when they get old. Doctor is #1 important person in the colony.

Wow, that's a LOT of info on the game. Yeah the breaking a leg experience I'm currently having. And I highly appreciate the insights, it's fun to be exploring a game like this in a series!

[@ladyjinyxx]

@@RubberDuckieG a lot can be learned from trial and error lol it's a lot to remember but if I can help even a small amount from my misfortune I'll do it 😂 best of luck and I look forward to seeing how you fare haha

[@ladyjinyxx]

I also found out that if your wood inventory is full the foresters will switch to plant care, so if you want apples and cotton grown that's how you get them to care for the plants. After they are grown you can focus more on wood production.

[@spacewolfcub]

For future readers: Xenophobe is kind of a jerk to strangers. Xenophile is a sweet person that loves the whole world and hates war. Subtle difference but important if you want to play a peaceful game or a bloodthirsty game without having a constantly unhappy settler. Diplomat and Xenophile traits together are great for a peaceful game. Killer and Xenophobe make for a happy warrior in a bloodthirsty game.

[@Jeffs40K]

So you started with a OLD timer to start your map, Cooking when you have no farmers, you should start with Forester for sure and either farmer or I like Scholar, First pause and check out map ! Look for Apple trees, Stone, Crystal and a Spot farther away from Goblins ! specially angry ones to start your colony.

[@RubberDuckieG]

Good call!
