Controls and Gameplay

Click people to select them. Click the ground to make them move there. Click FEED on the sidebar to give them food from the resources. Move them to the farm or the river to gather food or water which is added to the resources.

When people run out of food they start starving and will die. Keep them alive!

Hints

• You can mouse over areas of the game to find valid gathering or task locations.
• When food is at zero, you lose health
• When water is at zero, you no longer regenerate energy for tasks
• Resting does nothing at the moment

Content & Warnings

This game explores historical racial issues. We want to raise awareness of the issues of the past and present, and do not intend any harm to anyone. We hope this game may inspire some to do further reasearch into similar issues of mixed-race discrimination in history.

Note: we never got around to implementing any of the above.
