Hopefully walks will yield a bit more now that I've sorted the sprinkling of items so that there are no shortages. I've picked totally arbitrary figures e.g. there are 500 money bags on the grid - so if the game needs a few more low hanging fruits, I can increase numbers.

I did hover over what I now understand to be uncollected bread, to be told it might be useful for feeding monsters (I think). Q: How long does the bread I've got last before it goes stale / mouldy? Or is it 1970's Sunblest white bread with enough preservatives to fell an army?

With it, you leave a trail of bread crumbs behind you, and at the end of your activity all closed loops in your route are accessed. There are only so many breadcrumbs in it at any one time. There could be a duck of immense hungriness. Perhaps, for the duck of immense hungriness?

Maintained by fetcheveryone

I have decided to build a new version of Fetchpoint, and for now at least I am calling it Fetchworld.
