LEVEL 4.8 TORCHES:
Tasks: Light 9 Torches; Repair 3 Bridges
Given Resources: 10 Gold; 10 Wood; 10 Food
Bonuses: Workers work faster; Additional Worker; Workers walk faster
Strategies and info: This level can be quite challenging. First of all there is no warehouse; therefore there is no more than 20 of each resource at a time. There are 7 boulders that need to be removed costing 12 gold and 10 food ea. Three bridges costing 15 wood and 10 food ea. Plus all buildings need to be upgraded to the maximum in order to produce the resources fast enough. AND a Temple and a Barracks need to be constructed at 15 wood ea. The torches cost 3 gold and 5 food to light. There is no mine or market so the coffer and the collections are the only gold sources. Collect the resources as soon as they become available if there aren't 18+ in inventory so they will replenish. Also the entire scene needs to be cleared and repaired in order to light the torches.
Oh, here's an important note the ghost in the southwest is only blocking the 2 roads that branch by him; the road that is south of the ghost and the road behind the ghost. This means the main road running north and south on the west side can be cleared before building the temple. The other ghost blocks the exit road which can wait to be cleared.
If your preference is to not follow the walkthrough step by step...here's the strategy. Construct the fisherman's hut first then the sawmill and upgrade them to the max while clearing the starting area. Then clear the road sections in every direction possible (much like the bonus levels) collecting resources as soon as they replenish.
Use the additional worker bonus at the beginning of the level then use the fast walking or additional worker bonus the rest of the level depending on your preference. The workers can collect the replenished gold fast when the walking bonus is used.
Here's the steps:
• Construct the fisherman's hut (8 wood).
• Collect the food and the wood to the east of the shack.
• Construct the sawmill (5 wood).
• Collect the rest of the available resources, except for one gold chest as it will bring the gold count over 20.
• Remove the snow pile in front of the bear to the east.
• Collect the wood in front of the bear.
• Upgrade the fisherman's hut (10 wood).
• Remove the snow pile in front of the ghost behind the shack.

• Remove the 2 wood piles to the right of the farm site while upgrading the sawmill (8 wood).
• Use the extra worker bonus and remove the 2 wood piles in front of the ghost behind the shack while removing the 2 snow piles and collecting the food in the very southwest corner.
• More resources should become available, collect them.
• Then light the torch in the southwest corner then repair the bridge in the southwest.
• Collect the wood behind the bridge; then upgrade the fisherman's hut to a fishing enterprise (13 wood).
• Remove the wood piles behind the bridge while using the extra worker bonus collect the additional resources and light the first torch behind the bridge.
• Construct the barracks (15 wood) and remove the 2 snow piles going north on the west road behind the bridge.
• Collect the 3 gold chests in front of the 2 boulders on the west road; then remove one of the boulders. The extra worker bonus should appear before long; activate the worker bonus and start removing the wood piles on the east side that are to the right of the sawmill where the bear was located while upgrading the sawmill to the max (12 wood).
• Upgrade the shack to a cottage (10 wood).
• Have one worker remove the next boulder on the east road while the other worker lights the middle torch of the east road and clears most of the east road while constructing the farm (10 wood) and then the temple (15 wood). Don't light any more torches until all the roads have been cleared.
• Collect the wood resource on the east road then remove the branches; then collect the wood pile on the exit road where the ghost was and upgrade the farm.
• Collect the gold while using the fast walking bonus and remove the boulders on the southeast branch road where the ghost was the other worker will still be working on the east road while upgrading the farm to the max.

LEVEL 4.9 DETOUR
Tasks: Reinforce 8 ice sections
Given Resources: 10 Gold; 10 Wood; 10 Food
Bonuses: Workers walk faster; One-plus resource
Strategies and Info: There are 2 bridges to repair (15 wood 10 food); 8 boulders to remove (12 gold 10 food) and the 8 sections of ice to reinforce (8 wood 5 food) to reach the exit.
This level can be completed before nightfall if distractions don't get in your way. One key to quick completion is to construct and upgrade the warehouse to the max as quickly as possible. There's no need to build the barracks as the road the bear is blocking doesn't offer much. The long winding road in the center of the scene that leads to the 3 chests of gold, takes too long and is too costly to clear and repair. So build the temple and repair the bridge and roads behind the ghost. The gold chests in the northwest behind the ghost will replenish often enough to collect enough gold using the resource bonus and a completely upgraded warehouse to remove the boulders leading to the exit.
• Construct the warehouse (10 wood).
• After the warehouse is completed, collect the wood in front of the shack and the food that is to the north of the shack. Leave the rest of the resources and collect w/ the resource bonus later.
• Repair the road that is to the northwest of the shack that leads to the ghost.
• Construct the sawmill (5 wood)
• Clear the 3 wood piles; one wood pile is on the road leading to the ghost and the other 2 are on the road leading to the bear while upgrading the warehouse (12 wood).
• Collect all available resources using the resource bonus AFTER the warehouse is upgraded.
• Upgrade the warehouse to the max (15 wood).
• Repair and clear the middle extension road that has the wood pile only at the end. Don't collect the wood pile yet while upgrading the sawmill (8 wood).
• Clear the road leading to the ghost while upgrading the sawmill to the max. (12 wood).
• Construct the temple (15 wood).
• Collect the available resources after the ghost is gone w/the resource bonus while constructing the farm (10 wood).
• Repair one section and clear the branches on the road leading to the exit while upgrading the sawmill (12 wood).
• Repair the bridge in the northwest where the ghost was.
• Collect the available resources using the bonus.
• Repair the 2 sections of road in the northwest behind the bridge while constructing the cottage (10 wood).
• Just a little more wood is needed before clearing the exit road start clearing the bottom extension road off the road along the west that has the wood pile and the food at the end. The second worker should be available shortly, have one worker clear the extension road and the other worker start repairing the exit road.
• Use the resource bonus and collect the gold chests in the northwest along w/all other resources available.
• Upgrade the farm (15 wood) after the first 4 sections of road have been reinforced along the exit road.
• Remove the 3 piles of branches along the exit road while upgrading to a lodge. Have one worker clear the exit road and another worker on stand-by to work on the exit road by placing the curser on the next section of exit road that needs to be cleared, when the highlighted circle turns green to the next section of road, click on it to send the other worker to clear the section. This can save several seconds as the exit road is long and curvy. Have the third worker collect the resources using the resource bonus.
• When enough resources have been accumulated to complete the exit road, use the walk faster bonus.

Given Resources: 2 Gold; 4 Wood; 6 Food
Bonuses: One-plus resource; Additional Worker; Stop Clock
Strategies and Info: The keys cost 3 gold and 2 wood to collect. The dark cloud returns on this level. There is no warehouse on this level meaning no more than 20 of each resource can be accumulated at a time.
A temple (15 wood ea.) and the barracks (15 wood ea.) will need to be constructed. The entire scene will need to be cleared in order to collect all the keys. There are 10 boulders to remove (12 gold 10 food ea.); 10 sections of ice to reinforce (8 wood and 5 food ea.); 7 piles of snow to remove (3 gold 7 food ea.) and numerous trees and branches to remove.
All buildings will need to be completely upgraded.
Here's the keys to completing the game before nightfall; use the Stop Clock bonus only. This gives the resources time to cycle one time. When you use the stop clock bonus only, the game will distract you when the bonus has been charged w/ the dark cloud appearing or resources replenishing. Construct the sawmill first; and then the fishing hut. Upgrade both buildings alternately. Then construct the farm and upgrade, then the cottage. Construct the temple before you get to the ghost; upgrade the farm to max then lodge.
When clearing the roads, collect a little wood then remove some snow piles or boulders, then collect the resources as a cycle. Keep repeating this cycle as much as possible. After clearing most of the wood, clear the road to the exit. Collect the resources as they replenish unless the inventory for that resource is 18 – 20.
Collect the keys at after all the roads are cleared.

• Continue to clear the road to the exit and the road and road extensions on the east while upgrading the farm (12 wood and 15 wood) and the lodge (20 wood) to the max.
• Have one worker ready to collect the resources while the other workers clear the roads, alternate between reinforcing the roads, building a bridge or clearing trees then remove a boulder or snow pile. Wait to collect the keys until the roads are cleared.
• Collect the keys...just a little warning, the gold chests like to replenish in front of the keys blocking access to the keys.
