There is no real reason to feeding the bird, other than it being good to share and it makes the bird happy!

You can exchange Favours for larger bags at Teng Fei’s shops that are scattered across the campsites along The Trail.

You don’t lose items during trades, you actually sell them! Even if another player does not purchase that item, when your item reaches the end of the conveyor you will receive Chits (although you will receive more if another player purchases it). If you wish to keep your item to try and sell it for a higher price with another player then you can remove it from the conveyor before the end at no cost and then take it to the next campsite. It is up to you to decide if you prefer guaranteed Chits now, or the chance for more later on!

This depends on a two factors; your stamina and the other players that pass you. When you pass out you are able to get up immediately in exchange for Favours or you have to wait until your stamina has recovered. If you choose to wait then your stamina will slowly recover but items will gradually fall out of your bag, and people who pass you can take them. Your clothing and the items in your pockets will not be taken, so you can protect your valuables!

Yes, you can; when pressing Koko the bird, there is a button to cancel your current quest so that when you arrive at the next campsite Beatrice will give you the opportunity to choose a new quest.

Houses and towns are a huge part of The Trail! When you buy a plot you will automatically build a house and join a town. You can then work together as a town to unlock civic buildings which do a variety of things such as; allowing you to chat with your fellow settlers in your town, better access to large quantities of wood in the Logging Field, and many other features. Houses also give you a profession and you can make money by selling items you make using your house machine. You can spend Chits on furniture for your home that will allow you to store rare items and clothing in your house, and they can also give you buffs; such as increasing Chits receive for items you sell. You can fast travel between your town and your last visited site on The Trail.

You have item requirements needed to upgrade your house, and once you have collected all these items you can place the items in the upgrade box and pull the upgrade lever in the house. These upgrade items are often from the machines of various professions across the town and so you need to visit other player’s houses and use their machines as well as your own and even work with other settlers to upgrade your house.

You cannot change profession once you have chosen one, however there is no real advantage in one profession over another one. You can use other people’s machines (the large object in houses that convert specific trail items into more useful items) in their houses in order to help yourself and others in your town. There are a set and equal number of each profession in a town.

Yes, you can access this option in the Settings Menu, which can be found by accessing the menu in the bottom right, and selecting the “I” button for info.

When you are a part of a town you can work with your fellow town settlers to unlock a building called the Saloon. Once the Saloon is unlocked you are able to talk to the other people in your town at all times on The Trail and in town.

You receive items all across The Trail. The map will tell you where certain items are more prevalent and you can then travel there using the map and collect the items you want!

5. Leash your Followers to the Treasure Temple to start construction.
6. After the Temple construction has been completed, a card will appear.  Tap on the card to collect a reward.

We’ve noticed that some users are have a little trouble building Treasure Temples – When leashing Followers to the Treasure Temple they won’t start construction. This is often due to a tiny piece of land found within the Treasure Temple. Try rotating the camera to a different position and try sculpting the land again.

If in doubt…Meteor the Temple!

Stormy Weather and Blue Skies are currently displaying the incorrect details.

Our team are fully aware of this and we’ll be correcting these details in a future update.

Once we have more news about this we’ll be updating this FAQ.

If the user leashes a second set of Followers to the same location as a previously leashed first set, then the first set of Followers can have their Leash cancelled without the user’s input.

Once we have any additional news about the fix, we’ll update this FAQ.

There is a small chance the a storm generate a story chest within Weyworld. Although the story hasn’t been implemented to Weyworld just yet. Clicking on these chests will open up the Journal to a empty page.

We’re currently reviewing this bug and we’ll be sharing some additional news within the near future.

Voyage Missions have been temporarily disabled and we’re currently look at new, fun and interesting ways to implement new voyages missions into Godus.

Once we have any additional news we’ll be updating this FAQ.

f you’ve linked your Godus account to Facebook you may notice some ghost beacons have started appearing around your world.
These unusable Beacons with a little green orb above them show how far your Facebook friends have progressed through Godus!

Some users have reported that Godus will become stuck on the Authorisation screen.

This could potentially be down to the user changing details on Facebook such as email address or login password.

If you’re stuck on this screen, please try deleting and re-downloading Godus, after this you’ll be able to log back into your account, please make sure that you recover save your save as well, otherwise you’ll be starting a new game.

Each gem chest within Godus has a unique ID and once collected this ID is added to your account. Once collected you won’t be able to receive gems from this ID again.

As chest ID’s linked to your account they are carried over to new games as well. This has been causing some confusion with users who have been trying to collect them and not receiving any gems.

Losing your save to corruption or a bug is never fun and we take this very seriously.

If your save has been reset in any way, please email godus@22cans.com and one of our dedicated support team members will help you to recover your save.

Some users on Android devices have reported that Godus takes longer to load up after Update 6.

Since then we’ve release another patch that has fixed this issues, please visit your Google Play Store to ensure that Godus is currently running on the latest version.

If the user converts some of the Astari Followers to their own, (this is done by having a higher happiness rating than them when the Astari Festival ends) the newly converted Astari will often not make it to be added to the user’s Settlement as they’ll get stuck on their way.

We’re looking into this bug and will update the Support questions when a fix has been achieved!

If the user has a very large number of Followers, the AI can be seen to work a little slower than normal. Sometimes the Followers will come out of their Abodes up to ten seconds after being instructed to do so – sometimes not at all – and at other times, the game will simply crash.

This issues is currently being looked at and once we have any additional information we will update this FAQ.

Owners of the more higher end Macbook Pro with the Intel Iris Pro Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M graphic cards are reporting that Godus will crash on start-up. (Or other Macbook Pro’s with dual graphics capabilities.)

If you’re suffering from this crash, please try the following work around:

• System Preferences panel
• Energy Saver
• Disable automatic graphics card switching

This issue is now in our bug database and we’re hoping to address and implement a fix within a future update. Once we have any addtional information we’ll update this FAQ.

When using Rain of Purity, the cursor’s location (apparent when you go to click the ‘X’ to end the God power) is at the centre of the cloud, rather than at the power’s target location.

However, when using Finger of God, the cursor’s location is quite a bit below the graphical representation of the finger, at the target of the power.

The result of this is that when the user tries to hit the ‘X’ to cancel the God power, it can be quite jarring, as the cursor is inconsistently-placed relative to the graphical representation of the power.

Once we have any additional information for this bug we will update this FAQ.
