You need to make a commitment to take a select 5-person tribe to discover the source of a strange heathen mask and establish your tribe in a beautiful yet inhospitable environment while trying to convert the resident heathen tribe to your group. This endeavor takes time and patience; you are not going to finish this game in a day or two. You need to take the experience and revel in it. You will want to walk away for a few hours and let things happen without actively playing the game the entire time. Quite frankly, this is a very different experience for me, but I quickly caught on, keeping the game running in the background while I did my real work. I would reward myself after completing certain work tasks by going to check on how my tribe was doing.
This was a fun walkthrough for me to write. This is not a linear game and there are quite a few different ways to succeed in this game. This makes it much more interesting and also more forgiving. As long as you don't walk away from the game while leaving it running for too long, you can fix things and move on. You can keep playing and nurturing your tribe for as long as you want.
So use the Virtual Villagers 5: New Believers walkthrough to guide you through the whole game or just get yourself out of a jam; in either case you will enjoy the challenge. Just have fun with it and take a mini-vacation in the tropics.
