Official gameplay tips
- Animals will follow you if you’re holding their favorite food.
- Happy animals produce resources that can be collected in the basket at the shelter.
- Animals automatically stay near their feeding trough as long as it’s filled.
- For animals to reproduce, you need two of the same species with all needs fulfilled. Each animal requires its own shelter to fulfill its needs. Animals will only breed if there’s an available shelter nearby.
- Animals can be transported to other places using an animal transporter. Place the base where you want to bring them, then use the transporter to move the animal to that base.
