Chapter 1: Palm Coast
- Level 1.
- Goals: 5 Cabins (4 more needed), 1000 Gold.
- Resources: 1000 Wood, 1000 Food, 2 Workers.
- New Features: Build Cabins, Collect Rent, Assign Workers.
- Tips: Building a Cabin requires 25 Food, 25 Wood and 1 Worker. Cabins produce 100 Gold as Basic Rent. Rent appears as Gold Coins. If you do not collect the Rent, the Coins will start flashing and eventually disappear.
- Tricks: If you really want to complete this level faster, you can hire extra Workers and upgrade the Cabins, but that is not necessary. And you do not even KNOW about that (yet).
- Notes: In this version of the game, you do not need to click on resources to collect them. Just ‘mouse-over’ and they will be collected automatically. Do not wait to complete each numbered Step before starting the following Steps.
- Strategy: (1) Build 4 Cabins (giving you 5 Cabins total). (2) Collect Rent until you have 1000 Gold.
- Level 2.
- Goals: 5 Workers (4 more needed), 1500 Gold.
- Resources: 1000 Food, 1 Worker.
- New Features: Hiring Workers, Chopping Trees, Repairing Bridges.
- Obstacles: 3 Damaged Bridge require Wood to repair.
- Tips: Click on the Castle to hire a new Worker. Workers cost 50 Food now, but in later Regions the Food Cost increases.
- Tricks: Workers can chop each group of Trees until they are exhausted (the Trees, not the Workers). To keep a Worker chopping continuously, click on the Trees again immediately after collecting the Wood. Each Tree = 25 Wood, enough to Build or Upgrade a Cabin. Do not wait to complete each numbered Step before starting the following Steps.
- Strategy: (1) Start Chopping available Trees to gather Wood for repairing Bridges. (2) Hire 4 more Workers (now you have 5 Workers). (3) Chop all available Trees and continue throughout level. (4) Build Cabins on empty lots as they become available. (5) Focus on Building Cabins first (to get Rent started) and Upgrade them when you have a free Worker and enough Wood to Upgrade (25 Wood each). (6) Repair bridges in this order (1) center, (2) lower left, (3) lower right. These bridges require 200 Wood each. (7) Collect Rent until you have 1500 Gold.
- Level 3. Goals: 1 Sawmill, 5 Upgraded Cabins, Gather all food from the bushes. Resources: 2500 Gold, 3 Workers.
- New Features: Sawmill (Building). Constructing a Sawmill costs 1000 Gold and requires 2 Workers. You need an available Worker to run the Sawmill. Obstacles: 3 Broken Bridges.
- Tips: Upgrade Cabins as soon as you can afford it (if you have the Wood and Food and available Workers) to start collecting the increased Rent. More Rent means more Gold to produce Wood at the Sawmill. Gather Food the same way you Chop Trees: keep Workers continually gathering Food by clicking on the Bushes after you collect Food. Do not let Workers remain idle.
- Tricks: Sawmill ‘production runs’ always take the same amount of time, so it’s often better to wait to collect Rent in order to have more Gold to produce more Wood faster. Build Sawmill as close to Castle as possible, providing quicker trips for a Worker.
- Notes: Cabin Upgrades provide higher Rent (50% bonus, or 150 Gold total Rent per Cabin per cycle). The size of Sawmill production runs and prices HAVE CHANGED from RE2. You can choose 50 Wood for 400 Gold, 100 Wood for 800 Gold, or 250 Wood for 2000 Gold. Essentially Wood costs 8 Gold per unit.
- Strategy: (1) Build Sawmill (1000 Gold and 2 Workers) and produce 100 Wood (800 Gold), then 50 Wood (400 Gold). (2) Start gathering Food with 3rd Worker. Continue to gather Food from all bushes throughout level using any idle Workers. (3) Build a Cabin (25 Wood, 25 Food, 1 Worker) to get Rent started. Continually collect Rent as it is generated. (4) As soon as you have 100 Wood, repair Bridge to lower right (2 empty lots and 2 Palm Trees for free Wood) while you build a 2nd Cabin near Castle. (5) Hire a 2 more Worker (50 Food each, now you have 5 Workers). (6) Chop the Trees on lower right for more Wood and Build and Upgrade 2 Cabins there. (7) As soon as you have 100 Wood, repair Bridge to lower left (1 empty lot and 3 Food bushes). Build and Upgrade 1 Cabin there. Gather all Food. (8) Produce 100 Wood (800 Gold) at Sawmill (you can’t Chop enough free Wood), repair Bridge (200 Wood) to upper right (5 Food bushes). Gather Food from remaining bushes with all 5 Workers.
- Level 4.
- Goals: 1 Market, Catch 25 Fish, Rebuild all the Houses and Piers.
- Resources: 1650 Gold, 4 Workers.
- New Features: Market, Rebuilding, Fishing.
- Obstacles: 3 damaged Cabins, 8 damaged Piers.
- Tips: Damaged Houses produce no Rent.
- Tricks: Hire 4 Workers. You need a total of 8 Workers. You still need an available Worker to operate the Sawmill and/or Market. Dismiss a Worker (temporarily) from Fishing if you need to, then Summon him back Fishing.
- Notes: Markets sell Food the same way that Sawmills produce Wood. Rebuilding a Cabin takes 25 Wood and 1 Worker. Rebuilding a Pier takes 50 Wood and 1 Worker.
- Strategy: (1) Collect Rent (Gold) from Houses as it becomes available. Upgraded Cabins produce 150 Gold for Rent and the basic Cabins produce 100 Gold (after they are rebuilt). (2) Start Chopping Trees and continue until the Wood runs out. (3) Build a Market on empty lot (1000 Gold and 2 Workers), buy 100 Food (800 Gold). Later, as soon as you have 800 Gold again, buy 100 more Food. 200 Food is enough to hire 4 additional Workers. (4) Rebuild 3 damaged Cabins (25 Wood, 1 Worker). (5) Produce Wood at Sawmill as soon as you have 800 Gold (you will need at least 3 Runs of 100 Wood each to get all the Wood you need to rebuild all 8 Piers). (6) Continue Hiring new Workers at Castle (50 Food) until you have a total of eight (8) Workers. (7) Start rebuilding the Piers (50 Wood, 1 Worker). After each Pier is rebuilt, the Worker will automatically start Fishing there unless you dismiss him and assign him on another task. (8) Collect Fish as they appear until you have 25 Fish.

- Notes: Farms produce ‘free Food’ the same way that Gold Mines produce ‘free’ Gold, but slowly, and only a limited amount.

- Tips: No Castle on this level, so you can’t hire any Workers. You really have to use your Workers wisely. Move them around so you have the right number for the job.
- Notes: Rabbit Holes first appeared in Floating Islands, but they get MUCH more complicated in this region. We refer to them as ‘Portals’ in the Strategy to save space, and designate where to send the Workers (the destination). Do not wait to complete each numbered Step before starting the following Steps.
- Portal Reference: Starting place = ‘Home’, then from ‘Home’: (1) Left Portal ‘Market Island’; (2) Right Portal ‘Pirate Island’; (c) Bottom Portal ‘Farm Island’.

- Level 51.
- Goals: 3 Beehives.

- Tips: Cottages requires 2 Workers, which makes them perfect for this level. You need a Market, but not a Sawmill. You don’t ever need more than one Bank. Do not Summon Workers to Forestry until all Cottages have Gardens.
- Notes: To save space, Strategy steps will use the word ‘Portal’ instead of ‘Rabbit Hole’.
- Portal Reference (relative to Castle): Castle = ‘Home’; (1) Right Portal ‘Bank Island’ (upper right); (2) Left Portal ‘Bees Island’ (center).
- Strategy: (1) Summon 4 Workers to the Gold Mines. (2) Chop Fallen Trees blocking Forestry and road to Portal on right. (3) Send 2 Workers to Bank Island.

- Notes: Dovecotes provide Happiness +25 for EACH DOVE (maximum 2 = 50 Happiness) X Number of Houses. So a full Dovecote is equivalent to adding a Garden to each House. Building a Dovecote costs the same as a Bank (100 Wood/Food, 2 Workers). Doves cost 50 Food each.

- Level 63.
- Goals: Rebuild all polling places, Clear and rebuild all Roads.
- Resources: 6 Workers.
- New Features: Polling Place (see Notes).
- Obstacles: 4 Pirates, 3 Gluttons, 3 Bridges, 2 Leprechauns.
- Tips: One of the hardest parts of this level is actually WAITING while you Collect Rent to Pay the Pirate (5000 Gold) so you can have access to the Bank. You will need to Buy 5 x 250 Food at the Market.
- Tricks: You see a Chest behind the Sad Leprechaun who needs 250 Happiness, but there is also something hiding behind the 2 Pirates who demand 10,000 Gold.
- Notes: The Goals are a bit confusing. There is only ONE Polling place to Rebuild. You need to remove each and every Obstacle (see Above) to ‘clear and rebuild all roads’. Begin each Step as soon as you can. You will have many simultaneous tasks for your Workers.

(5) Hire 2 Workers. Now you have 8 Workers. (6) Buy 250 Food (2000 Gold). (7) Hire 3 Workers. Now you have 11 Workers. (8) Add Gardens to all 5 Chalets. Now you have 250 Happiness. (9) Cheer Leprechaun (250 Happiness) next to Polling Place, then Open Treasure Chest (2000 Wood!). (10) Upgrade 4 Chalets. (11) Buy 4 x 250 Food (total 1000 Food) then Demolish Market (!). (12) Hire 2 Workers. Now you have 13 Workers. (13) Restore Polling Place (1000 Wood, 1 Worker). (14) Repair 3 Bridges. (15) Build a Dovecote and Buy 2 Doves.
