Virtual Villagers Origins 2 Cheats and Tips
Know your Villagers
Learn more about each of your villagers, such as age, health, and skills, by going to the 'Details' screen. If you tap the circle to the left of a skill you will be able to set a skill preference. These are Farming, Healing, Building, Research, and Gathering. Once you set a villager skill preference they will prefer this type of work and gain skill the more they practice.
Making Babies
In order for villagers to make babies they must be at least 18 years old. Children will not be able to work until they reach the age of 14. The game does not take into account families ties, so your villager can have babies with his parents, siblings, or his own children if they are 18. If you activate the 'auto-breeding' option from the 'Skill' menu, the villager will constantly try to have babies with all the adults available. If it's a woman, she will have babies with all the adult males of the village. If it's a man, he will constantly try to have babies with all the women who don't already have babies. Once an adult villager reaches 40 years of age they will start to experience difficulties having babies.
Explore the Island
It is important that you constantly explore the island as doing so will unlock various things which will help you to solve the puzzles. Keep in mind that the island is always changing and different weathers may unlock different things.
Increase Research
In order to develop game progression it is important that you research so you are constantly upgrading the various technologies. As research skills improve you gain tech points that can be spent like money on new technologies. Tech points can be used to buy any of the technologies listed below.
- Research
Advancement in research will allow your villagers to gain tech point faster from researching.
- Farming
Advancement in farming allows the completion of new puzzle steps, and villagers will be able to obtain food from new sources other than the coconut tree.
- Medicine
Advancement in medicine will reduce the frequency of disease on the island and increase villager longevity.
- Construction
Advancement in construction will allow your builders to solve more complex problems and construct new types of buildings.
- Crafting
Advancement in crafting allows your villagers to craft metal, oil, and clay bricks.
The more villagers you have doing research the more Tech points you earn. To help speed up production you can save up gems from watching ads and buy up to three totems from the store.
Coconut Tree
The coconut tree is not a limitless source of food and will eventually stop providing fruits, when this happens you will have to wait a period of time before it provides again. In the meantime you will be forced to find other ways to survive. You can make this easier by only having one farmer at the beginning of the game and by holding back from making too many children. If you are really desperate for food during this time you can forage for mushrooms. Keep an eye out for special events where participating will either reward you with food or make the coconut tree produce fruits again.
Prevent Starvation
Unlock fishing as soon as you have the required farming tech as this is the most important, unlimited food source in the game. Once unlocked you will never have to worry about your villagers dying from starvation.
Healing Villagers from Poisonous Frogs
One of the dangers on the island of Isola is the sickness caused by poisonous frogs. The only way to cure the villagers from this illness is to increase your Healing Skill by healing sick villagers. The poisonous frogs can be killed by child villagers.
Prevent Aging
The health of your villager will slowly decrease with age until they eventually die. Although this cannot be avoided, it can be slowed down by improving Medicine tech.

How to solve heat wave in survival mode?
Once I had levelled up to Research level 2, my chief could draw up plans about a Rain dance. I then tried taking 4 villagers to the Kraken pedestals again, and this time they got up on them, and prayed. But the first villager had already finished by the time I got the fourth up on a pedestal, so I had to keep putting them up on the pedestals several times, before the Kraken was enough satisfied to stop the heat wave. However, presumably there was something about it which I still need to improve, because the little text window which appeared, basically said that the praying hadn't been good enough to also grant the villagers with some rain. ... + 2 More Answers
