In a teeny tiny village called Tribesville, meet a group of creatures called Wobblies. As pacifistics, they’ve lived in peace for thousands of years living their own quiet lives hanging out at the beach and catching vital rays from the everpresent sun. Unfortunately, their lives were turned upside down and their cute, shiny village started to show signs of darkness as imminent danger approached. The food and water supplies ran low and hyenas began depleting their resources. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to help evolve the Wobblies into a strong, productive, and self-sufficient tribe of doctors, builders, foragers and guards…before it’s too late.
