What Did You Answer?

When Will You Be Asked?

At the Start of the Game

As soon as you start the game, you'll be asked a variety of questions by Timmy. The very last question he asks will be about what you would bring to a deserted island.

However, it seems that Timmy is simply interested in hearing what the player would say as it has nothing to do with the player's actual situation of going to a deserted island.

This can be chalked up to the game's unique sense of humor.

Only the First Player of the Game Can Answer

The only player who will encounter this question is the one who first comes to the island.

Keep in mind that other players won't be able to answer this question If you're planning to play this game with two or more players.
