When you build a saloon and have at least 100 golds, you can hire one there.

Hi, does anyone know where the hidden supplies are?
I blew up all the rocks at the sides of the stone arch, but it is not there (

Hi Deleigh,
Look for the other stone arch in the interior, pass through, go up to the large stone grouping and the supplies will appear. Happy gaming.

Thanksand yes i found it accidentally. I was thinking it was in the water!
Now i am trying to beat this mechanic quest; can't seem th overcome "5 person" and "repair" quests.
What might be the problem??

Sorry I can't remember that one! I'm now looking for the old entrance in the sunken treasure quest. Any ideas? By the way when doing the zombie quest get the outlaws killed as quick as possible as this stops the horseman coming and taking your citizens. Happy gaming!

GREAT GAME! I have played 1 and 2 and 3 is the best! Help with the family!
I do all distractions. But when I try to sneak up (cant move the ma/pa behind wagon?) they get shot.... any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks

I can not get past the Zombie/pumpkin head challenge. I need more people. Any suggestions?

Thanks Memawclay2!! I actually figured that out soon after my post. Duh!! Obviously you would have to build a granary to increase your food capacity. I was just a little frusterated. Thanks again for the reply.

There are three distractions which leads you with the guy on the horse to beat. You shouldn't have to sneak at that point.

How do I get the Outpost? I haven't completed the red flowers yet, but saw the hint - thanks! I have played too long and now my eyeballs are going to fall from my head. I struggled with the haunted town, will go back later, when my eyes grow back.

I NEED HELP !!!. I'm playing the regular part of the game and my hero and red are supposed to be moving to a new town, they have to go through the snowy valley and go through mine shafts to get to the other side, but I'm stuck, I just keep going in circles. Does anyone know the trick to get through to the second part of the game?

If you go the other way through tunnels you don't always end up back where you started. I don't know if they are all different, but I had to get up to the top right area then went back through the left hand tunnel that I came out of and ended up in the very small area. Go through the other entrance in the small area and you come out in the long left hand area. Go get the dynamite and blow up the fence. Hope this helps, it was a while ago that I did it!

Have you been to see the guy at the crumbled hillside? Go and see him and plant some trees to stablise the hillside, I had to plant 3 lots (get tree seed from the general store), then the outpost becomes available. Click on the unbuilt outpost and you will be able to build it, you need some money and wood I can't remember how much.

Make sure you kill the outlaws as fast as possible as this stops the pumpkin head from taking your citizens, I went to the saloon, bought the saloon and hired a gunslinger, then went round killing the outlaws straight away. the gunslinger died but my hero killed them all after a while. At the same time I just built tents to bring people in, unzombied ones will get hungry and leave after a while, but more people will take their place. I had a couple of people employed at the lumber camp, a couple at the farm and a couple at a river gold mine I built, then sent the hero round collecting all the piles of food, spare gold and wood. To get the the outlaws at the bottom of the screen, you need some dynamite and blow up the rocks in the small alleyway just above the village. Good luck!

Has anyone planted trees yet? My forests are all cut down and although I bought the tree option with experience points, no one is planting them and I cant find an icon to make them do it? Any thoughts? Thanks

Moon, if you click on a person in your town after you buy the seeds, there should be the plant icon (by the dynomite icon) you click on the plant and it will give you a circle, when the circle is green (by the wood hut) click on it and they will begin to plant the seeds and water them. It only takes a few seconds for the trees to grow. Hope this helps.

Since I'm not sure where you are at, I can only advise to go back to your main game and do the Trading Post challenges or the Sheriff's Office challenges for additional skill points. Good luck.

How do I do the 4th sheriff's challenge without enough medical packs? I have tried it several times but all my gunslingers including myself die when there is only two bandits left.

I downloaded this game and my Vista machine crashed as it was trying to set-up.Windows shut my computer down to protect itself and so I un-installed the game right away.
