Hello everyone, I am the editor of Qitan. Today I want to talk to you about "Taoyuan Ji", which has been very popular in the "on-demand games" sector recently. It is a buyout strategy survival and simulation management mobile game. To be honest, when I first got started, I was almost chased by a wild boar all over the mountain. Later, I slowly figured out a rhythm of opening up wasteland, and now I can finally drink tea and enjoy the flowers comfortably. I just took this opportunity to share some common pitfalls for novices, hoping that all friends in the forum can build their own paradise more quickly.
Let's first talk about the core survival stage of the game. When you first enter the New Valley, you only have a few refugees and some basic tools. Don't rush to expand your territory, the first thing is to collect resources. Wood and stone are the lifeblood. Prioritize all characters to chop down trees and quarry stones, and at the same time send one person to the river to fish or pick wild fruits to ensure food supply. Note that time flows very quickly in the game. You work during the day and rest at night. You must return the character to the campfire before dark, otherwise you will lose mood points or even get sick. In the early stage, it is recommended to build a simple shed first, which can provide shelter from wind and rain and allow the character to recover his physical strength.
Next comes the question of defense and exploration. Wild boars and wolves will start harassing your camp around the third day. Don't worry about resources. Build a wooden fence as soon as possible. Even if it is short, it can block most wild beasts. When exploring the map, try to follow the river and you will find distribution points of medicinal herbs and wild tea trees. Collecting herbs can make simple healing medicines, which are very practical in the early stages. As for tea, wait until you have time to make it. It's important to fill your stomach first.
Once you have a small, stable camp, you can consider farming. But there is a key point here - don't plant rice right away. Rice has a long growth cycle and requires paddy fields. It is easy for novices to get confused. I recommend planting wheat and carrots first, and you can harvest them in forty-five days without picking up the ground. Before planting, remember to send two people to reclaim the wasteland and add some fertilizer, so that the output can be doubled. In addition, taming wild birds is a good choice. Chickens and ducks can lay eggs, and the eggs are raw materials for making medicine, killing two birds with one stone.
When it comes to architecture, many people like to build a bunch of useless decorations in the early stage, such as pavilions and rockeries. To be honest, they are really useless in the early stage and take up space. Priority was given to building warehouses, mills and furnaces. Warehouses can expand storage space, mills can grind wheat into flour, and medicine furnaces can make medicines and cure diseases. As for building a garden, that is a matter of mid-to-late stage. It is not too late to start work after you have a stable population and food.
There is another detail that is easily overlooked: the system of marrying a wife and having children. If you want to expand your population quickly, remember to build a decent bedroom in the camp, and then arrange interactions between characters. If you have enough goodwill, you can get married. After a baby is born, he or she will need a special crib and extra food, so don't rush to give birth to a bunch of babies, otherwise they may starve to death.
Finally, let me share a little tip: You can send a person to patrol the mountains every day. Not only can you find wild fruits and herbs, but you can also find some forgotten ruins, and occasionally there will be surprise rewards. In addition, the built-in tutorials in the game are actually quite detailed. If you encounter something you don't understand, you can click on the question mark icon in the upper right corner, which is much easier to use than Baidu.
Generally speaking, the pace of "Taoyuan Ji" is slow, but the feeling of starting from scratch and slowly operating is really healing. Moreover, as a buyout game, there is no problem of paying money to chase progress. You can play it to the end by paying once. If you are a player who likes simulation management and survival strategies, I highly recommend giving it a try. If you have any problems in land reclamation, please leave a message below and we can communicate together. 🌸
