Master the Survivor challenge in Reus! Learn how to transmute animals, boost danger with Boars, and manage village prosperity to complete the Era.

Alright, let's tackle the Survivor challenge in Reus. The main goal here is to finish an Era with a village that's sitting pretty at 500 Prosperity and 30 Danger. Sounds simple enough, but getting there requires a bit of finesse, especially with the Danger aspect.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, we need to get some Danger going. To do this, we'll need to transmute animals. Equip your Forest and Swamp Giants with one ambassador each. Your first task is to create a Desert Village and fulfill its initial Project: assign those ambassadors to the Forest and Swamp Giants.
  2. 2
    Next up, let's get a Forest Village started. The key here is Boars. A Boar naturally generates 5 Danger just by existing. Plus, it'll pump out bonus Danger on every tile for any extra wealth it has.
  3. 3
    To get those Boars, start with Chickens and use the Forest Giant’s Hunt Aspect. Remember to Fertilize the ground first to make your Aspects more Potent!
  4. 4
    Now, bring in the Swamp Giant. Using a potent Predator Aspect on a Boar will add 1 Wealth and 1 Danger. Because of the Boar's unique symbiosis, this actually results in a boost of 1 Wealth and 2 Danger!
  5. 5
    With this setup, a single Boar can actually spread 25 Danger on its own – pretty wild, right? If you get two of these Boars going, you'll be generating a ton of Danger, and surprisingly, a lot of resources too (well over 50).
  6. 6
    Just a heads-up: don't go overboard with too many Boars. Too much Danger, and the humans will get nervous and might try to take them out. Aim for just enough Danger to meet the requirements, and you can gradually add more as needed.
  7. 7
    After sorting out the Danger, focus on building up the village slowly. Expand its borders gradually and make sure to place plenty of high-yield resources. If you're finding it tough, consider setting up a second village – even if just for the extra ambassadors. You could even upgrade the Ocean Giant’s Animal ability to place even better Boars!
Tips
  • Keep an eye on the Danger level. Too much, and the humans will react negatively, potentially leading to the Boars being removed.
  • Fertilizing the ground before using Aspects is crucial for making them more potent, especially for the Hunt and Predator Aspects.
  • If you're struggling to hit the 500 Prosperity mark, don't hesitate to create a second village. The extra ambassadors can make a big difference.
  • Experiment with the Ocean Giant's abilities if you have it unlocked; it can lead to even more powerful Boars.
