HEY JUST FYI SOME OF THE INFORMATION THAT COULD BE ON THIS PAGE ISN'T YET SO KEEP YOUR SALT GRAINS HANDY THANKS


Improbable Island is a text-adventure browser game. It's very cool.

Races

Human

Home: Newhome (K5)

Basic bitches. The game is pretty much balanced around these folks.

Pros:

  • Free shit from Newhome each newday
  • None of the other races' cons

Cons:

  • None of the other races' pros

Kittymorph

Home: Kittania (T13)

Kittyyyyyyyyy!!!! The triangle ears and the meow meow!!!!

Pros:

  • fuckign adorable :3 :3 :3 🐱🐱🐱
  • High attack
  • Efficient at cleaning corpses and cooking (uses less stamina)
  • Fighting without armor debuffs the enemy's attack and defense
  • Cool Springs Cafe has some of the better food

Cons:

  • Low defense, especially since you're encouraged to fight without armor
  • Inefficient at hunting and fighting

Mutant

Home: Pleasantville (N24)

How many heads?

Pros:

  • High attack and defense

Cons:

  • EXP penalty
  • The lore doesn't treat you very nice :c

Zombie

Home: New Pittsburgh (D15)

Braaaaaaaains.

Pros:

  • Can eat corpses directly, skipping all this "cooking" nonsense

Cons:

  • Corpse-eating means you get more Crap Meat (ew) and can't benefit from herbs. Of course you could just not use that feature, if you prefer...

Squat

Home: Squat Hole (J17)

they're narsty little fucks, innit?

Pros:

  • (We'll fill more of this out after playing as one.)

Cons:

  • Kebabs 'n' Shite has some of the worst food
  • They're still your classic Depraved Dwarf stereotype, even after being renamed from "Midgets", which you might not be super cool with.

Robot

Home: Cyber City 404 (V38)

Beep boop bitches.

Pros:

  • Can overclock their attack, defense, and regeneration, to ridiculous levels if you like.

Cons:

  • Overclocking generates heat, and too much heat deals damage. No way to get rid of it but venting between rounds.
  • Can't use the hospital tent.

Joker

Home: AceHigh (J30)

Roll the dice, babey.

Pros:

  • Card-based buffs are cool.
  • Randomized stat modifiers each day can massively buff you.

Cons:

  • Card-based buffs are completely random and you have zero control over them.
  • Randomized stat modifiers can also massively nerf you. Also completely random, zero control, etc.

Locations of Interest

Improbable Central (M11)

The only outpost that's not home to any race. Here you can get furniture, construction gear, and... quests. Aka beg the RNG for mercy.

Tempests' Cat Cafe (P17)

Our cozy little kitty zone.

Easy beds from each outpost

  • Newhome: Casa de n00bz, the front room has a double bed and a load of singles
  • Improbable Central:
  • Kittania: Carter's Cottage (directions TBA, but poke around, you can find double beds reskinned as all sorts of things in there)
  • Pleasantville: A shelter from the outdoors
  • New Pittsburgh: Muddy Trenches (directions TBA)
  • Squat Hole: Swampy Trenches (directions TBA)
  • Cyber City 404: Stony Trenches (directions TBA)
  • AceHigh:

Little tricks

  • Use a bed "instantly" by not actually getting into it until the newday has arrived. This will keep slots open for other players, if the place is short on decorations.
