Title: "Indian Fishing Cat: Game Guide & Solutions"
1. Overview
Indian Fishing Cat is an eco-adventure game set in the Ganges Delta, focusing on saving the Critically Endangered Indian Fishing Cat (Prionailurus viverrinus). Players assume the role of a conservationist working with local communities to restore habitats and combat threats.
2. Key Objectives
Restore River Ecosystems: Rebuild fish populations and clean waterways.
Solve Community Conflicts: Balance human needs (fishing, agriculture) with wildlife protection.
Uncover Hidden Threats: Stop illegal poaching and pollution.
3. Step-by-Step Solutions
A. Restoring Fish Populations
Task 1: Build Fish hatcheries
Collect mudsnails (found near mangroves) and algae (from floating plants) to feed baby fish.
Tip: Use the Netting Tool to catch fish for temporary food while hatcheries are active.
Task 2: Clear Polluted Water
Use charcoal (from the blacksmith) to filter toxins. Place it in water bodies marked by red flags.
Secret: spoke to the old fisherman (NPC) to unlock a natural filtration recipe.
B. Resolving Community Conflicts
Task 3: Mediate with Fishermen
Trade catnip-scented collars (craft from the lab) to deter stray dogs that raid fishing nets.
Achievement: "Friend of the People" (complete 5 trades).
Task 4: Negotiate Land Use
Plant mangrove saplings (blue seeds) to create buffer zones between farms and wetlands.
Clue: Check the local shrine for ancient maps indicating suitable planting areas.
C. Stop Poaching
Task 5: Track Poachers
Use * thermal scopes* (obtained from the research center) to spot poachers at night.
Alert: Bait a fish trap with spicy peppers to lure poachers into detection zones.
Task 6: Confront the poacher leader
Steal the golden hook (hidden in a cave near the delta) to unlock a negotiation dialogue.
Final Choice: Return the hook for a truce or destroy it (permanent game state change).
4. Hidden Achievements
EcoWarrior: Restore 10+ water bodies.
Silent Guardian: Solve all 3 environmental mystery puzzles (e.g., decode an ancient map to find a lost spring).
Legacy: Save 100+ adult cats (endgame reward: a virtual adoption certificate).
5. Resource Management Tips
Food: Collect mud crabs in tidal pools (limited to twice daily).
Crafting: Combine lotus petals + tree resin = anti-pollution drone (scan for hidden pollution sources).
Health: Drink neem leaves (found in forests) to cure poison from polluted water.
6. Ending Scenarios
Success: The cat population rebounds; the delta is declared a UNESCO reserve.
Failure: Dams flood the delta; cats go extinct in the game world.
Bittersweet: A hybrid ending where cats survive but lose 50% of their habitat.
7. Real-World Connection
Inspired by Project Tiger and WWF India’s Ganges Restoration Program.
In-game data mirrors real threats: siltation, plastic waste, and climate change.
8. Walkthrough Video Link
Watch on YouTube (hypothetical link).
Final Note: Balance strategy and empathy—players must respect both ecological limits and human needs to save the species.
