Technologies

The technologies of Kainga are normally passed down from one generation to the next, but Thinkers have the unique ability to capture ideas from the past at illuminated sites of inspiration.
— Kainga Encyclopedia

Technologies form the core of a town. They are granted to a Thinker via Ideas, found around the map as Inspiration.

Discovering Technologies

Inspiration floating on Terraces. Technologies can be discovered by sending a Thinker to Inspiration, floating orbs of light that contain Ideas. A beam of light also rises into the sky, aiding in finding Inspiration. A Thinker can think at Inspiration to discover a technology associated with that Inspiration. Each Inspiration will have an icon associated with the type of technology its Idea can provide. When a player has their Thinker selected, these icons will be visible anywhere on the map. When a Thinker successfully thinks of an Idea, the player is presented with three options, randomly selected from the unlocked Technologies. If a Technology is incompatible with previous choices, it will not show up. For example, if a Shelter is chosen that can't have attachments (such as the Vrisk House), no future Ideas will have Technologies that attach to Shelters (such as a Blastpowder Distillery). Note that the "Chance to Appear" trait below is based on all Technologies unlocked and available; the percent chance for a given Technology to appear in each Challenge may be different.

Types of Technologies

Shelter

Shelter technologies are where Braves are spawned, and the only way to increase a village's population capacity. They usually consume Food to produce one Brave, and must be occupied by at least one Brave to produce.

Clay Huts

A basic hut made from Clay that can help get your town growing quickly.
— Kainga Encyclopedia

Clay Huts are a basic Shelter that can be useful to kick-start a town. Because of its Eagerness property, getting a reliable food supply is less of an immediate priority. However, Clay Huts are vulnerable to almost all weather, don't provide very much population, and can't use attachments.

A unique single housing structure that can only be built once but consistently produces Braves and can also build canoes.
— Kainga Encyclopedia

The Gosanke Harborhouse is the only Shelter Technology that can only be built once per Challenge. It provides 30 population from the get-go, and enables you to build Canoes right away. (Note, however, that this limits your population to 30 for the entire Challenge—you can't build more than one Harborhouse.) The Harborhouse is a somewhat flexible structure, requiring only a 4×4 footprint despite taking up a 9×9 space visually. Despite its initial appearance (on the water), this 4x4 segment must be on land. Once built, your Thinker gains the Canoe inspiration, letting you build Canoes anywhere on the water without needing to build a Canoe Dock first.

Unlocking the Harborhouse is a little tricky. In order to unlock it, you must:

Spoiler:

1. Visit Pebbles or Greenleaf
2. Defeat or befriend the nomads living on the Harborhouse that spawns on the map
3. Send your Thinker to the Hearth located on the Harborhouse

Note that due to the way that the above process is tracked by the game, it is currently not possible to unlock the Harborhouse using Serrano.

A ceramic pot that grows corn for Food when rained on.
— Kainga Encyclopedia

Ceramic Crop Pots produce Food relatively quickly. As long as there are Ceramics available, a Ceramic Crop Pot will continuously produce new Bamboo. (The build Material counts as the first consumed unit of Ceramics for production.) While a Ceramic Crop Pot is being rained on, its production requirements are satisfied and Ceramics are not needed.

Festival

Festivals are some of the most important Technologies available to discover, and can only be discovered at certain fixed points. After a certain number of other Technologies is discovered, a Festival Inspiration will appear above the Hearth and your Thinker will automatically return to it (if not commanded to do otherwise). Only four Festivals are available to discover during each Challenge: three unique to each Thinker, and one Festival that will complete the Challenge.

Unique

Unique technologies will never appear in a Biome during a Challenge, but instead must be unlocked during a Challenge by discovering both Technologies necessary to develop. (This is reflected below as a 0% Chance to Appear.) Some Unique technologies have several different combinations that can unlock them (usually based on a single production Technology in combination with a different production Technology), but others have only one formula to unlock them. One of the Technologies involved in discovering a Unique technology is replaced by it (if chosen); it is possible to opt out of developing a given Unique technology if it would be difficult to build or any other reason it might be a worse option than the base Technology.

It is possible to unlock more than one Unique technology at a time; if this is the case, only one of them can be chosen.
