The Bridge

Question to those who've played Elona for any length of time; how the hell am I supposed to do anything?! crabs and kobolds are a dime a dozen and I can't kill either.

@James is that cat real?

James

@axrwkr Yes

user58869

it looks really strange, what is it?

James

Sand cat

The sand cat (Felis margarita), also known as the sand dune cat, is the only felid found primarily in true desert, and has a wide but apparently disjunct distribution through the deserts of northern Africa and southwest and central Asia. Since 2002 this small cat has been listed as Near Threatened by IUCN due to concern over potential low population size and decline. Sand cats are found in both sandy and stony desert, living in areas far from water. Having thickly furred feet they are well adapted to the extremes of a desert environment, and tolerant of extremes of hot and cold temper...

user58869

thank you

Q: How do I get museum items?

I've been playing Puzzle Craft for four months now and am close to completing the app (or maxing the levels, at least). However, I have not yet found a single 'collection' (the items shown in the museum). How might I find these?
