@freemo I'm designing a game with a mate, where you as a modern day person get thrown back in time to the dark ages. You have to try using your modern day knowledge to help a village with various medieval problems like water, sickness etc, without being accused as a witch and get executed.
I often consider what i'd do if i had access to go back in time. What would I bring, what knowledge would be useful to me, etc.. so many elements
For starters, in treality if any of us went to the past we would die of disease within a week. Our immune system arent adapted to the strains of virus that existed even a few hundred years ago. So like the native american's who encountered the european settlers most of us would jsut die off.
Moreover, if we survive most of our knowledge would be useless as most of it relies on tools or foundations not availible. Consider electricity for example, how would you even go about building a strong magnet, high quality copper wire, and all the other stuff you need to make an electric generator?
@freemo As a joke, we came up with a story that you happen to have your phone with offline Wikipedia in it, and solar charger when you get thrown back in time.
@Rovine Sounds like a very cool idea.
