What is Human Age?

Human Age is a simulation game or RPG that runs on your web browser.

Basically the aim of the game is to check on your character every day to see if he/she has had enough food/water, money, and other things. And guide him/her through the ages of mankind. As i write this there are only 3 ages ready so far with more coming later-

Below is the description of human age on its homepage-

Do you want to know how history can be fun? Do you want to learn how to hunt the biggest animals the world has ever seen?

Human age is a simulation game / free virtual management game / rpg where you adopt a human being and help him or her through various ages of mankind, from prehistory to the 21st century, from learning how to use a club to your driver's license.

Luckily, with the help of your wolf, family and friends, your life is much more than just work, it's a real game. But before you can become the king of France in medieval times or a pharaoh, you will be a caveman or woman and hunt dinosaurs.

If 10,000 years of history and mayhem don't scare you, register now and join the over 20,000 players who are already rewriting history!

Prehistory Age - Getting started

The currency of money is the goat kneecap (gk)-

• First - Eat and Drink (that's your main priority)
• Second - Accumulate Gk (this is the second most important thing)

You can get Gk by -
Pocketing the cash of your holiday ticket everyday
Selling your hunt
Playing games (I suggest that you don't gamble or you might lose alot of cash)
Making sure you have a job
Referring others to the game

The following are things to be done-

• Well your first weapon should be the slingshot but when you have enough Gk you should get the Carved Flint Spear.
• Hunt in the marsh first then when your capabilities are high you can change grounds (Suggest to have capabilities at 40 for each before change)
• Don't bring your hunt back. Sell them when you are offered.
• Buy a fluffy ant for your food. There is no rush to gain weight for now.
  
• You can buy furniture and other things if you want but don't forget to accumulate money.
• The job you should pick is wood gatherer. It lasts 4 moons so renew it every 4 days.
• Wolf -- It is quite important if you want to catch a mammoth but in your early stages of gaming --- FORGET IT.
• When your morale gets below 60 don't forget to raise it up by buying pleasure items.
• Don't let your health drop below 50.
• Remember to keep your Gk at a minimum of 50 and try not to get into debt.
  

Prehistory Age - The Goals

Completing goals are a must. They are the only way you can evolve to the next age and they help you with life on this age. The Goals are -



Know how to start fires.
Know how to make tools out of carved stone.
Have built a dolmen.
Have maximum intelligence.
Have maximum strength.
Have maximum stamina.
Have maximum health.
Have maximum morale.
Weigh over 40 kilos.
Not have any health problems.
You must repay your debt to the bank.

Your objective is to complete all of them and you know you've done that when there is a green bullet point next to it like above.

The order in which you should complete them is

1. Max out capabilities
2. Know how to start fires
3. Know how to make tools out of carved stone
4. Have built a dolmen
5. Not to have health problems
6. Weigh over 40 kilos(Well this takes time and i feel that you shouldn't rush it unless you have over 1k Gk to spend on food)
7. You must repay your debt to the bank
8. Have maximum health(This is quite easy but again maybe it might take a day or two)
9. Have maximum morale(Easiest among all to complete, all you need is 100Gk to spend on pleasure items)

Now how to complete those goals? Well simple....

• Max out capabilities- This is simple, all you need to do is buy skill items such as, Body Building, Mountain Bike Riding, and Knowledge, each of them cost 5Gk a piece. And to really speed things up you can even buy the capability pack. You should try to max it out before the third quest.
• Know how to start fires- Start the 'Learn to start fires' quest and finish it. If you need help in completing it check out the Learn to start fires quest walkthrough.(Coming soon)

• Have built a Dolmen- Start the 'Pagan cult discovery' quest and finish it. If you need help check out the Pagan cult discovery quest walkthrough. (Coming soon)
• Not to have health problems- First find out what you need to cure the illness (go to your doctor), then either let him cure you or buy that item that he mentioned and use it.
• Weigh over 40 kilos- This can be solved by eating large animals or just eating medium sized animals over time.
• You must repay your debt to the bank- Well if you are in debt, go back to your clan's bank and repay them.
• Have maximum health- Either buy health potions, or choose sleep as your hunting ground.
• Have maximum morale- This can be done by buying pleasure items.

Prehistory Age - Learn to start fires Quest

First of all - During the whole period in which you are doing this quest, your job must be 'wood gatherer' and because it only lasts 4 moons make sure that everyday you check if it has expired and if it is, renew it or you'll be fined.
Second - Make sure you have at least 500Gk before you start the quest.
And the third - The higher your stats (Strength, Stamina, Knowledge) the better you'll be on this quest and other quest as a matter of fact.

Learn to start fires

1. You have to sacrifice a sheep. It can be bought at the shop for 20Gk.
2. Before you leave on your quest, you have a choice to let a neighbour take care of your house. It will cost you 25Gk, i recommend that you pay that small amount cause you might get robbed.
3. To continue you need to use 10% morale and health. If you have it, use it.
4. A saber-tooth tiger! Lol you can either fight it or feed it 6 rabbits. This is a though choice because each rabbit costs 10Gk and you only have a certain % chance of defeating the tiger, it all depends on your stats. My recommendation is to feed it the 6 rabbits because losing 40% health is too much.
5. Now there is a problem, you have been tricked to pay 33Gk because you couldn't resist good looking food. Well there is no going back - Pay the 33Gk as soon as possible.
6. A hunter knows the correct path but you must give him a spear worth 300Gk. If you get the path wrong you'll have to start the whole quest all over again, and if you were to guess you would have a 1/8 chance to get it correct, though. Well, today's you're lucky day because you're reading this guide. A guide that will tell you the correct path for free, so don't buy the spear and now move on.
   
7. The famous cross-roads - If you would guess you have a 1 out of 8 chance of getting it correct. Luckily you have this guide. Before I tell you, do me a favour and guess the path but don't pick it on the game yet, now read this backwards (the correct path)Tsae-Htuos, if you got it correct give yourself a little pat on the back if not then consider yourself lucky.
   
8. Finally the end - You must sacrifice one night to learn how to make fires. It's worth it because later you have access to the fire starter job which can make you get a lot of money.

Now you can work as a fire starter, i have to say that right now this is the best way to make money. So when your wood gatherer job expires be sure to select this.

Prehistory Age - Build Weapons Quest

Wow building weapons already? Well this quest is quite straight forward and all you need is ALOT ( and i mean alot) of GK. At least 700, this is due to the part where you have to ride either a lamb or a pony (which will cost you alot! If you aren't fit enough), and, keep your job during this entire quest as stone chooser. And again, the better your stats (Strength, Stamina, Knowledge) the easier this quest will be.

Build Weapons

1. You're going to leave your tribe for a while but they aren't letting you go without a price. Well actually they just want something that will remind them of you in case you never come back. You have to pay 150Gk before you leave.
2. Wow though choice - Either fight 2 almost impossible to beat creatures or, let go 2 impossible to get creatures. Again, though. Well, i suggest that you buy and release the tigers because if you fight the rhinoes once and lose there's no going back until a few more days.
3. Phew! You managed to not get tricked again. Wait... Ah man! Looks like you have to pay 49GK... hmm.... maybe you can run for it.... Well no - Pay the Gk as soon as possible.
   
4. You can either lose 30 health and 25 morale or pay 25Gk. If you think about it, the time needed to heal that 30 health would waste loot worth over 30Gk... So as a suggestion - Pay the cash!
   
5. Ice cubes - how can that help you.... I'm still trying to figure out. Well good thing you have this guide, forget the cubes and move on.
   
6. Now you have to choose either a sheep or a pony. In my opinion it's best to get the lamb because, you need alot of health and not morale and the other thing is because a lamb is cheaper. So buy a lamb. Wow.... this is alot harder than expected. Get ready to face certain death with trial and error. Note- Once you have done it save some cash, heal up, then move on.
7. Yea! The famous crossroads! Lol. Again, this guide is here to lend a hand. Choose North-West (the last direction choice, wow that seemed almost obvious).
8. Strawberries, Rabbits, and Ice cubes, men really need weird items. When you have collected them go ahead and continue your quest to learn how to build weapons.
9. The Cave... You'll have to spend the night to find some stones and there are no hippos to disturb your sleep, well the sooner the better.
10. Great you're done, congratulations! Now you can build weapons and rule the world with your new job! Lol!

I suggest (if you don't have a carved flint spear and if you want better wages) that you change your job to flint maker (after your stone choosing job expires), being that now it is the most rewarding job.
