I've read several posts from people who have reached the end of the current "goal line," so to speak, & are not sure if they will continue with the game. I am nearing that point myself, but have a plan to stay occupied until these updates we keep hearing about come!
Once completing the Alice line of goals (that just stop abruptly, I might add), it seems like I'm not doing nearly as much work around the game and subsequently have a lot more spare energy. At first this was annoying, but now I've decided to stockpile. Assuming this game will take off and continue to be developed, those of us at this point in the game have a great opportunity to get ahead while there's nothing else to do!
I am spending my energy on and working toward the following:
- expanding into all areas possible & once that's complete, I'll stockpile axes & compasses
- stockpile loose sandwiches & picnic baskets
- craft & stockpile building-related items such as bricks, blocks/beams, enchanted items, paint, etc
- stockpile harder-to-get items & items that go quick such as dryad's, seed, nightshade, milk, tea/toadstools, etc
- amass a fortune by wasting energy to collect from money buildings so that when there's something fun to spend money on, I'll be ready
