I like the idea of a limited number of lives per hour. Something like 2 lives per hour.
Would also solve the suicides at the same time.
Ah shit, I named him and breastfed him… Sorry about this. Would I have known, I’d have stabbed him myself.

Nice!
Most skeletons I found were of forgotten people. I don’t remember having seen a name, but I didn’t pay much attention. I put them all outside of the village (I like to have the space clean).
If you’re interested, here are all the notes I’ve found in the building and just next to it:
I am Ermias Pu. Last man alive. No girls.
I’m starting to hear voice. Many. So lonely…
We are Pu family. All ginger. Many beards.
There are no girls. Nobody noticed. Until too late.
Girl turn old so quick. Everyone.. dies. So fast.
We made many paper. I hope someone find.
To Mippu, I’m sorry and love you. Always. Ppucheongja.
Pu forever!
I am Ermias Pu. I almost grifed town. Pu for life.
The only other note I found just said “Haha”, it was a bit further.
@futurebird
Yea, books would be nice!
I love this kind of thing too. It was an eerie feeling to read these papers.
When I’m a male, I’m almost always out of town. People generally don’t make enough baskets, and generally there are not enough males gathering. It’s generally easy not to starve in the wild, just do some gathering and you will learn quickly how to.
I was born to an unnamed mother. She told me they were rebuilding a village.
I found several records of the last moments of the people who lived here. Someone wrote that they hoped someone would find the paper. So there it is, we found it.
but it makes me wonder if early human tribes actually were ruled by women, as the death of all females would lead to the death of the tribe.
I always found it strange how people always assume hunter-gatherers don’t exist anymore, or haven’t been studied extensively in the recent past.
They still exist, there’s the !Kung bushmen, the Sentinelese… Several Australian aborigines bands have been studied, as were the Inuits, etc… If I’m not mistaken, it appears that the general conclusion is that the genders are somewhat egalitarian in these societies. They have quite clearly determined roles though. Comparatively, one in a modern developed country is more free to do what they want independently of their gender.
OHOL also shows how things would work with rebirth and costly talking (sharing information via speech costs a lot time and food-wise). A member of a small society takes actions very independently as they are taught by being reborn enough of times how to work in the most beneficial way in the situation they are born to.
Yea, I’ve always found this game somewhat simulated an ant colony.
I’ve found your observations on abundant societies and existentialism really interesting, BerrypickerAF.
Just letting you know, if you were one of the Hemsworth who helped Una Hemsworth survive yesterday…
I was the only young woman, so I was told it would be better if I’d stay in the camp.
I had one child, a female, Luna Hemsworth, who had children.
Well, I just found out, the lineage depth for Una Hemsworth is 12! o_o
Good job!
