got stuck

[MemPhiZ ZX - #NewYear2025]

I don't know why, but in my game, when i reach the first portal, it teleport me to a small island and I can't push forward after that. is there anyway I can get to the main island without getting the flying spell?

It's random. On mine I got sent to a plane that had monsters with 120 HPs. Flight spells (and depending which faction flying units) are pretty early. It may slow your progress down having to cast a temporary flight to send reinforcements, but you could make this shard your primary (on te other side of the chasm).

i got that on my first game. the screenshot is from my second try. so just focus on my first island until I can move comfortably to next island?

You have been beign unlucky. Try restarting and seeing if the RNG won't screw you this time.

You can research magic flight quite quickly it you push directly for it. Personally I feel that such situations make the game more "realistic". If it were "real" then there'd be no reason for the shards to be set up neatly for you to pass through. Just think of it as a challenge for you to get past.

I had something very similiar happen in my first playthrough (and after searching I've learned this is actually quite common). I didn't really know much about the game at the time, and didn't look forward in the research/spell technologies, so I gave up on that specific game. But I was curious about it, so I asked in the official game forum, and boy did I get blasted for being a noob, a quitter, an idiot, etc... They weren't very friendly over there... Anyways, I've since learned that Magic Flight isn't too far down the reserarch path, and could have just waited it out until I had researched it.

However, I really felt like the game was forcing me down a specific research path because of it. I would have had to waste so many turns doing nothing but researching until I got Magical Flight just so I could start progressing in the game. It might've been realistic to do this, but hitting End Turn over and over again waiting for that specific research really bugs me. I would have given up the research I had wanted to do in order to get to it, and felt locked in.

It's kinda left a bad taste in my mouth...

yeah, keep pressing End Turn over and over until we got the magic flight is kinda boring.

In my first game i got stuck on first island. Portal on next island was blocked by water.

It wouldn't have taken all that long to build a harbor. Sure it's not a great location for a city, but as soon as you got a city somewhere on the other side you could convert it into a special.
