Where is the totem eye in virtual villagers 5?

Answer 1

The eye itself is actually very easy to find! It's how you get to be ABLE to get it that's hard... You see, to get the material required to make the eye, (yes, you have to create it yourself) you have to finish restoring the mausoleum. I, in a way, cheated a little to be able to finish the mausoleum faster. More specifically, at practically the beginning of the game!

What I did was, at the VERY beginning, chose two villagers that both liked running, and made them builders. That way, they'll keep up with the heathen builders working against them, and the rest of the village can still do their work, too. At the beginning, the only heathens trying to bury the mausoleum are blue masks, which DON'T SCARE AWAY YOUR VILLAGERS. So this way, you don't even have to tear down the blocking totem! Oh, and near the end of restoring the mausoleum, the heathen master builder (you know, the one that's all depressed and stuff?) will try and help bury the mausoleum, too. This is normal. It happened to me, too, but once you finish, he'll go back to his post.

When you finish restoring the mausoleum, (don't worry, the heathens won't try and bury it again) there will be a small bowl of water near the enterance. Drop one of your villagers on it, and they will take it to the river near the broken pot. Then drop them on the pot again, and they will try and goldpan in the river. I say "try" because they won't always succeed. Once they finish goldpanning three times. 3 times. 3THREE3!! (DO YOU HEAR ME!? IT HAS TO BE THREE!!) Drop another one of your villagers on the pot that is now filled with gold, (and now what that annoying broken pot was ever there for!) and they will take it over to the fire to smelt it. (Did I mention the fire has to be lit?)

After a little waiting, the lump of gold will then be a round lump of gold. Then, just drop one of your villagers on the round, gold ball and they will take it over to the blind totem and the eye will then be automatically installed and you will finally... actually, it's probably better I don't give you any spoilers. Happy smelting, whoever you are!

Answer 2

Once you clear the mausoleum, get the water bowl on the step and the person will bring it to the jug by the river, put your person on the bowl to search for gold and put it in the jug three times, put your person on the jug and he/she will put it on the fire for a while until it forms into the eye and put the person on the gold and he/she will put it in the eye statue and BOOM;) you unlocked the chief's meditating area
