New levels!
Tree Farming has arrived to the outlands and it’s caught the attention of a new group of leaders who are looking for more than just a simple life in the outlands… they’re looking for a challenge!
In these 6 new levels, you’ll help a group of outlanders as they attempt to live off just the fruits from the trees they plant, take over an abandoned town without destroying its natural resources, and even build a town from scratch in a completely barren land around an active volcano!
The new Tree Nursery building plays a major role in every level, promoting a theme of preservation and restoration. On top of that, two new buildings are introduced: the Decorative Monument, and the Fountain!
Everything you’ve learned so far has only been the beginning… this is the toughest group of missions yet.
Good luck and happy harvest!

New Levels!
Harvest season is coming to the outlands! Flowers are blooming, new crops are popping up, and an enthusiastic wave of new settlers are coming to build their very own towns in the breezy lull of the wilderness.
As the number of communities grows, so does the ambition of these town leaders. They don’t want to just build a simple town, they want to build one in a deserted landscape with no trees, create a magical town full of flowers and candy, and even build a gigantic monument that can be seen from across the sea.
It all builds up to a multicultural harvest festival celebrating harmony with nature and the outlander lifestyle. Come join them!
Additions:
- Five new levels with a variety of challenges to overcome.
- A new set of leaders with distinct personalities and different goals.
- Five new crops: Corn, Eggplant, Pumpkin, Lettuce and Sugar Cane.
- Introducing a new building: the Candy Mill! Outlanders now have candy.
- New decorative plants to make your town look pretty and fresh.
- New music tracks and sound effects.

- Old: now older people will look different in the game and have their own walk and idle animations. Useful to get quick visual feedback of how old your population is.

Improvements
- New recycle mechanic: destroying buildings now gives back resources. Some environmental elements can also be recycled this way.
- Followers now have more distinct names.
- Improvements to food system.
