The Ultimate My Tribe Guide!

A guide and walkthrough for the game My Tribe.

Introduction

Stardust and Moondust

Every once in a while a stardust or moondust falls from the sky and lands on your island. Drop a person on it and it will be added to your inventory. These can be seen on the map and is gone within 45-60 seconds so be quick.

Stardust:

• Gives you 20 food, stone or wood depending on which storehouse you drop it on.

• Instantly grows the sapling that you drop it on into a tree.

• Restores maximum stats of a tree/rock when dropped on it.

• Reduces a small amount of time on total construction time when dropped on the chosen construction.

• Reduces the time needed to reach the next level by 1 hour when dropped on a tribe memeber.

• When dropped on a science station it gives you a fair amount of research points.

• Advances agricultural level on crops.

Moondust:

• It is less common than stardust.

• Similar to stardust but has a different effect on tribe members.

• When dropped on a tribe member it will change their appearence. (skin tone, hair colour or hairstyle)

• 4 times stronger than stardust on reducing the time of constructions.

• Gives you 500 research points when dopped on a science station.

Crates and Barrels

Crates and barrels can only be found in water near the shoreline. You should see them because they come very close to the island but the best thing to do is to look at the island map atleast once in a while. To open a crate you place a person on it.

Usually the crates and barrels contains:

• Tools for building.
  
  
• Resources such as wood, rocks, and even food.
  
  
• Skill points for the person who opens the crate
  
  
• Mysterious dust that raises one skill to mastery skill.
  
  
• Dreadful tree eating beetles(they fly out and kill several of your trees).
  
  
• You also receive potion recipes, which is a big help
  
  
• Contaminated water (makes person feel lightheaded)

Either way, you should open the crates and barrels since you can find pretty nice items.

Mushrooms and Guano

While they are sometimes hard to spot, their usefulness will become apparent later in the game. Mushrooms grow randomly on sand and on grass. Guano gets dropped on the Island by seagulls.These are 2 of the many ingredients used to create potions. We have gone through potions a bit higher up in the guide. You have to place people on them to pick them up, but sometimes the people will gather them themselves.

Relics

Gold relics can only be found on the beach whiles or after it has rained. They look like little gold seashells the size of a mushroom. This is also a valuable ingredient for making potions.

Mysteries

There are 8 mysteries to solve, but only 3 per island.
Here is a list of the 8 mysteries and how to solve them:

Blue Moon Stone: Use a moondust on a tribe member and then drop it on the Blue Moon Stone. Now use 3 moondust on the stone right after each other (there will be a time limit).
You will now receive moondust more frequently.

Fossil Stone: You will need one tribe member with the rock gathering skill mastered and one with the sciene skill mastered. First drop the "rock master" on it, and then drop the scientist on it.
You have now gained 100'000 research points.

Glowing Stump: Have a tribe member with their strength maxed out touch it. Now the stump will be lifted and a little tree will be there in its place. Now you just have to use a potion that will make it rain (Fish, Seawater and Stardust) and then have the same person touch it again.
You will now have a tree that gives off infinite ironwood (used in potions).

Yellow Star Stone: Use the same procedure as you did with the Blue Moon Stone mysterie, but use stardust instead of moondust.
You will now receive stardust more frequently.

Unknown Plant: Use a fertilizer potion on the bush (Guano, Seawater and Stardust), now have a legendary farmer touch it.
It has now become a Cornucopia bush and will let you gather berries from it indefinitely.

Molten Rock: Here you need to drop a person with both their construction and science skill mastered, on it.
All your tools will now be made of iron. This will increase the construction, gathering and farming rate.

Fountain: Have a legendary scientist to touch it.
You will now have received the fountain water ingredient to make potions out of.

Flowering Tree: Look at the flower pattern surrounding the tree and then plant the missing flowers using the build menu (with the right colour so that it is matching the pattern).

Does anyone know how the time settings effect the in-game years. For example on slow is one hour a year ? Thanks in advance

[MrBread0451]

You can increase physical and mental strength from stardust. The children will have similar stats to their parents so you don't need to do it every time.

[Big Joey]

How do I increase their physical and mental strength without potions? Do they gain it from doing chores like cutting wood and researching?

[stargirl]

hi! i played this game a lot as a kid-i appreciate all the potions and stuff you made. do you have any early game tips? thank you so much!

[KrazyKiller2200]

Does anyone know how long real time mins = a year in the game? I looked online and found 8 hours per year but I started a new tribe and I've played 380 minutes and they are on year 3.

[BlueHoneyBee]

Does anyone know how long I have to wait after giving a tribe member a potion before giving them another one?

If you're playing on a newer MAC laptop, that came after version Leopard 10.5.8 or Snow Leopard 10.6.8, the game might only be updated to support the Leopard versions of mac, so if you have any other mac than Leopard, the game might not be playable.

If you're on a PC with windows, I suggest to verify the integrity of your game files. (Game in steam library > Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity files.) . You could try this on mac aswell if it's possible to do through the library there, but I can't answer on too much for mac-related issues. If this doesn't work you might have to update to the new steam version if you haven't, or download the Hi-rez installer to help launch the game on an OS later than Windows XP/Vista/7.

Cheers!

Game doesn't load past the black screen. Any suggestions?

I've just joined and downloaded MY TRIBE, it's someone else's game, I started new game and cleared mystery objects solved but I can't clear the STATS. I've reinstalled but no change and the SPEED settings don't work, there's no pause while I tried to sort out the problems or when I want to leave it for a while! How do I download a new game that doesn't say I've played 6650 mins??? This one's rubbish
