Hello Tribe Leaders,

Happy New Year, we hope 2024 has started off well for you all.

2024 is going to be a great year for The Tribe Must Survive, more news on that coming soon. However, right now we want to invite you all to another playtest and to help shape our game by submitting feedback on your experience.

How to join the playtest


You can get access to our playtest by joining our official Discord community! Visit our Gleam campaign, and verify that you're a Discord member, and Gleam will immediately give you a Steam key to redeem for instant access.

The Gleam campaign can be found here: https://gleam.io/BXTbo/the-tribe-must-survive-playtest-3-reward
Note: If you have participated in previous playtests, you do not need to do this. The playtest will already be in your Steam library!

Playtest themes


This playtest is focused on the tribe relationships, cohesion and philosophies.

Relationships


Every tribe member has a unique personality, which affects their relationships with their fellow tribe members. They will form opinions on each other which will affect their interactions, but also the spiritual and philosophical factions. It's up to you and your leadership to find a balance!

Cohesion


The tribe's cohesion is important to consider. If your tribe grows too fast, you may experience many inner conflicts when your tribe members clash together in disagreements.

Philosophies


A good tribe leader will consider several philosophies for their tribe. Do you prefer control or freedom? Protection or improvement? Your choices will impact how your tribe behaves, and how they overcome the challenges waiting for you in the dark.

Stay in touch


If you're new to The Tribe Must Survive, please do consider wishlisting our game! You can also click the Follow button on the store page to make sure you stay in the loop. We also have a community Discord you can join, to chat with fellow players.

Remember, whatever it takes... The Tribe Must Survive!
