Whiskerwood Official Wiki:Work needed

76561198010361111: introduced Resources and (Strategy) Guide segments

__FORCETOC__ 

== Things that need to be worked on ==

==== Complete pages for Buildings ====

[[Buildings]] is the listing page for all of the game's building types. To begin to be useful as an information source, the page's references to each Building name ought to link into a full page dedicated to only that Building's description. Keep in mind that the common Wiki practice is for pages to be named exactly as the (thing being described) is named, and given that the Buildings are core ideas to the gameplay, please keep them all at the wiki's root level. (If that doesn't make sense, don't worry, just enjoy making pages -- you won't screw it up and someone can tidy them all up later.)

Please invent an "infobox" (a way of formatting information in a condensed form on one side of the screen) to highlight key statistics of the buildings. Early stats to focus on include:
* Name
* Ground Area Covered (2 dimensions)
* Material Cost
* Available Immediately or Research Cost
* Short Description: What It Does
* Resources Produced (if any)
* Whisker Assignments

As enthusiasm for Buildings increases, add in some strategic, "pro strats" knowledge:
* Construction Time in game-hours
* Production Time (if any)
* Target for Tools (e.g.: Berries, Flax)

==== You know what's cool about Resources? ====

[[Resources]] is the listing page for the collectibles in this game. Unlike Buildings, it's not so important to give each Resource its own page -- though we could! -- but a wiki sorely needs to provide more information than a game object's name and "description".

Here are some other things that can be said about Resources:
* Tax Value (if Tradable)
* Food Value (if Edible)
* Chances Of Appearing In Shipments
* How To Get It?
* Where Is It Used?
* Is It Raw Or Refined?

==== More Guides ====

The [[Beginner's Guide]] is a great read, especially since it has so much of the charisma of the game's narrative. What it doesn't have is something for the Hardcore Gamer to enjoy: a build order! Head into its [[Talk:Beginner's Guide|Discussion page]] to contribute to the debate as to what to prioritize and at what time -- or feel free to create a 'disambiguation' for the Beginner's Guide (Strategy) page. You know, whatever you think is best to drive home your idea of how to 'git gud'!

76561198010361111: Borrowing a little from He Is Coming Wiki: added Discord link (even though it's on the right side, it's encouraging to have it more central to the main page), and implied the existence of a Work Needed page. It'll soon exist.

Whiskers

2025-11-06T18:23:37Z

76561198010361111: Added: Thoughtful

Whiskers are the clever, ingenious mice that act as the colonists of your islands. They inhabit the archipelago after arriving by ship, and build, mantain, and operate its buildings.

Whiskers are historically a working class under the [[Claws|Claws Empire]], which is ruled by cats. At the time of Whiskerwood, Whiskers can be either in favor of the Claws Monarchy or rebellious, and their political leanings impact the fate of your colony and if it stays under the cats' thumbs or declares independence.

== Education ==

* Guild Specialty - Allows the Teacher to turn any Whisker to their Guild. This can help fill optimal job slots in different guild areas that need a production boost.

* Craftsmanship - Provides an educated Whisker that is more productive at their craft.

** Apprentice - The first level of Craftsmanship available is the Apprentice level. Some buildings will require at least an Apprentice to either start production, or fill the final slot for optimization.

** Craftsmaster - The second and highest level of Craftsmanship, these Whiskers are the most productive, and can then also turn to educate other Whiskers.

* Scholarly - Educates a Whisker to research technology in the Research Lab.
