Story
As this is a lost film, not even the AFI has any story or plot on it. By the promotional material that survives, it's a typical South Seas story found all over the silent film era just a few years before sound arrived. The cast is made up mostly of silent film veterans continuing on as if silent films were still being made.[2]

gollark: I have a better way. Make your game AIs have human-level intelligence, and have them communicate and trade items! That way you get all the nice emergent behavior with the simple ease of implementing human-level AI.
